[@ethanwasme4307]

Most of his shit EA reviews are done a few days after they're out...

[@erttttt]

you mean when he actually played the game?

[@NoMansLand98]

Can I also add that this game has the funniest quest I have ever seen in a game, it is even funnier than the monk quest in Kingdom come deliverance, I am ofc referring to the LENNY WHERE ARE U quest :)

Whenever u play a game like Red Dead Redemption 2 you wander and say to yourself what the hell are other developers doing .

[@Patryk2346]

Probably not being allowed that much time and budget and also not riding their developers to death.

[@CaIIumscorner]

Wishing they had a 265 million dollars and 1200+ employees to help with production of their game (not to mention the multiple years they had to develop a game like rd2)

[@BlatentlyFakeName]

You don't need a huge budget to make a good game. In fact a lot of big budget games are junk, CoD for example.

[@randomuser1687]

Well hardly any games have this much development time. Besides maybe Bethesda games. But it doesn't show in games like fallout 4 that still felt mediocre and looked like it could've ran on the 360.

[@crackflush]

One word: incmpetents

[@THYERS]

I can see the Devs in the Rockstar office opening the bubbly after this review. "Horrah Mack loved it, we did it!!"

[@dictionarypictionary9872]

im not even Rockstar and im opening the san Miguel now. Hizzar!

[@Yhsie]

Yeah Rockstar have been reposting reviews on their social media from shitty sites like IGN, instead they should be boasting about reviews like these! Cause Mack aint easy to please! (lol that rhymed)

[@splintercelloo7]

Hahahah so tru. Thats what I thought as a consumer but unfortunately im a pc only guy so another loss for me from RS. Oh well.

[@ShadowfinderMusic]

If even Mack loves it (and he truly does, there's no ranting in this review!!) you know it's a good game. The gaming freedom is very much in line with GTA V and that was the best part of GTA V.

[@TheVCudi]

Or after they make billions of dollars

[@WorthABuyreviews]

Summary: It’s been a long time coming but it’s eventually arrived and I have to say am loving it despite it’s flaws that I mentioned in the video. It’s a shame that Rockstar did not play test the controls enough, it sucks when Arthur suddenly jumps on to the rock he is standing behind during a gun fight or can’t loot an object easily, but aside from that the game is awesome. Did I finish the game? no, for that it would have taken me weeks, it’s not something I want to rush, I want to savour and enjoy the game but I have thrown about 40 hours at it and am only half way through. I always feel that reviewers should be honest about how much time they spend playing a game before they review it and sadly a few still hide this aspect from their viewers and still claim to have completed the game when it's clear from their footage they have played it a lot less than myself. I guess pushing out early reviews is more important than pushing out accurate ones to some people. The way to play this game is very slowly, you should savour the beautiful world, immerse yourself in the character that you create, I mean yes you have to play Arthur Morgan the gang member when you are doing the campaign but outside of that I am William Munny out of Missouri, killer of women and children and anything else that has walked or crawled on this earth ;) And you can do that (except the children bit) and although being a bad man has it's consequences such as a bounty on your head which will grow as you murder innocent people, it's great fun evading bounty hunters and dealing with witnesses. I just wish all AAA games had this level of passion poured into them, the sheer amount of content outside of the 60+ hour campaign is staggering, it’s more of a way of life than a game and well worth the money, even if you don’t particularly like Rockstar games.

[@sfooter1692]

Were there any frame drops whilst playing?

[@WorthABuyreviews]

Nope ran like a dream.

[@Handonforehead]

Worth A Buy What console did you play on?

[@rolandz3485]

Hey mack, would it be possible to get a list of the back round soundtrack you use in your reviews? It's pretty good music!

[@tattoodrdoke]

Couldn't agree more IGN gave a 10 and haven't even played online yet. If your gonna review single player only then state it. As red dead online is part of the experience to give an honest review until you have also played that. Too many reviewers like the fake news wanna a narrative out first.

[@stevewelsh8560]

I'm on my 4th run through of this game, and I am still finding things that I have not found before. I even zoomed in on a rabbit and watched it blinking whilst it watched me. This game is brutal, funny and massively emotional, The best game ever, any new games I try now just don't cut it now. Will there ever be a game that makes me feel the way I feel playing this? Sadly I doubt it. Incredible.

[@deniskasperovich8251]

GTA 6 perhaps?

[@mme9646]

How did you see the hawk take a fish from the LAKE.. and then dropped it in the SEA tho?? You chased him for, maybe many miles until the Hawk was shot and missed where he then drops said fish in the sea.. 🤔💯👌🏻

[@WorthABuyreviews]

Few people asking the same questions, here are the answers. Q. Why use aim assist? A. Because I suck badly at aiming with a thumb stick Q. Why not review the first person aspect? A. Because it's terrible with a controller imo.

[@theknife5535]

[@darioushill7143]

what about ur review of Gta 5 PC? was the first person camera in that game also terrible using mouse & keyboard?

[@zebes2694]

No Mack, the thumb stick suck! 99.9% of console shooters use aim assist

[@juzzbuzz1]

for me i found first person abit better for some shootouts. it is terrible with controller but would be some much better with mouse and keyboard.

[@GRAFFDEMON]

I switch to first person when I'm looting interiors. Makes it so much easier.

[@darksilver9593]

Kingdom Come and RDR2 leading the way for the new realism era. Watch EA and Ubi bandwagon this whole realism thing for the next decade.

[@Eburon]

@@Abhishek-fe3zs That's your opinion

[@tzkro]

its the most immersive game ever created.clocked more than 2000 hrs and still finding new stuff..

[@scripturenest]

2000 hours wow really

[@kruqtion9615]

I love how you can go into a saloon, order a drink, then walk over the road to the hotel while bladdered, pay for a warm bath and comfy room for the night, hit the sack then wake up in the morning, have a cup of coffee and back to the saloon for some breakfast before going out on a new adventure. For me, *that’s* immersion

[@NPC-fg6up]

I played this game like a project, only on weekend mornings for 6 months, total game time over 300 hours. Best gaming experiance there can be, you are living the life of Arthur Morgan, some days i just went on hunting and fishing and did nothing else. The immersion and level of detail is just ridiculously good. This game has set the gold standard that all other AAA games need or atleast try to reach.

[@mrmarc4074]

This game really takes you back to a simpler time, where men were men and 30 fps was cool. In all seriousness, it's a great game, def WAB and such a beautiful immersive world....

[@zepp3k387]

Yeah, we have to go back to 1899 to find people still cool with 30 fps.

I LOVE this game... I love it so fucking much. i grew up on my granpa's ranch, used to spend most of the day down by the river or with the animals, surrounded by nature, real cowboys and living the country life. This takes me home so, so much and makes me feel warm and welcome. Love the story, love the gunfights, love the hunting, love the horse bonding etc.. I hate Micah tho. I hate that stupid bastard with all my heart.

[@spritualelitist665]

its not perfect with its shooting but everything else is fucking brilliant. This game is easily one of the most immersive games ive ever played. The attention to detail is unlike anything ive ever seen in a game. Why can't more triple A games be like this.

[@SkyHammackDrones]

Most triple A games don't feel the need(or have the time and money) to focus on the immersion of the world. Luckily RDR2 has set a new bar.

[@NicTheGreek1979]

They will start to be from now. The bar has been raised.

[@BeholdItKnits]

Most devs don't want to spend years making a single title and very few game companies have the massive resources that R* possesses. But it also just comes down to profit - they can make more money by releasing sub-standard shite every 6 months because enough people will buy it.

[@aboriginalmang]

For me true immersion isn't sound or graphics, but the ability to interact with every little thing in the game and manipulate them. Like the elder scrolls series. RDR 2 still failed at that.

[@chrisl8527]

Aussie Noonga I think ark survival is the most immersive I know people who put in 8000+ hours, talk about immersion...

[@ClickKlack43]

It really is a masterpiece. I was rolling my eyes when I heard early reviews saying stuff like “game of the decade!”, and “game changing!”, but it really might be one of the best games ever made. It’s pretty amazing.

[@gwoody4003]

Red Dead 2 is hands down my favorite game of all time, or at least til theres something somehow better. I agree 100% about the controls. Thebweapon wheel is frustrating. Pretty much the same in most shooter games. A contoller with a row of buttons for weapon slots needs to be invented. Free Aim is kinda crap on a controller too. But like you said.... clicking a mouse is not close to as fun as having a trigger. Some of the prettiest sunrises I ever saw have been in RDR2.

[@nath9000]

Bang up job, Mack. Keep up the good work mate!

[@Simte]

*It's high noon... Oh, wait.*

[@droopy8262]

lol

[@purvdragon-sensei]

I thought this was one of the greatest control schemes ever done on a console. Every button was used and there were no conflicting options. The fact that they managed to cram this much control while skirting around the limitations of a controller is kinda amazing. Of course, it feels like clutter, but once you get used to it just sets in and stays in your mind. One of the more brilliant things they've done, in my opinion is set the iron sight for FPS mode to down on the D-Pad. I've never thought of it that way but it's actually functional and it feels good in hands.

[@salthelegend7364]

I honestly dont find controllers that clunky but it must be due to the fact that im used to it and i can switch wepons and such really fast.

[@hellfire1820]

The controls are the same as rdr1 and gta v I see no complaints.

[@EtherMagic]

Exactly

[@Spider-Man62]

yes but the weapon wheel is horrendous in this and the character doesnt work amazing with controller

[@captaincluster316]

I'm glad I played Kingdom Come Deliverance before this as it wet my appetite for the total immersion experience. Both games made me feel like I was living the life of the character and the freedom to bugger off, hunt & have adventures is just so relaxing and enjoyable. Love it.

[@luizarthurbrito]

[@SynphamyMusic]

Except in ubisoft games you can generally turn off unskippable looting animations when they inevitably become tedious. My only gripe about RDR2... Skinning and bathing are cool and 'immersive' at first, but when you have to watch them over and over it's just annoying.

[@dreadplaysstill2158]

The flaws that a lot of critics have mentioned are actually pros for me, like the slow looting, the controls for me is perfect but I do understand how some may not enjoy it, the dumbest con that someone mentioned not sure where I heard it was “too much realism is immersion breaking” ?! What how does that make sense how lol?! Either way macs right, but this damn game even if you don’t like GTA or any other of rockstars games, the passion and love that went into this game should be a wake up call to all publishers who rush their devs.

[@sebast0409]

I'm so fucking excited for the PC version, I almost bought an xbox just to play this game lol

[@kahvikone]

I found that disabling aim-assist in GTA IV and RDR 1 made gunfights way more interesting. You don't just automatically ventilate the torso and have a bigger chance of hitting them in their limbs. That isn't a bad thing since the hit will keep them staggering for a moment while you deal with worse threats. Auto-aim can really dampen some fights in Rockstar games.

[@absolutelyaaron]

I loved this game. It’s without a doubt the best single player game I have ever played. The only thing that annoyed me was how the game auto equips certain weapons when you didn’t ask it to. I get that it’s probably giving you the best weapons for the job, but I’d rather make the decision myself. I found myself equipping certain weapons, then a cutscene would happen and the game would equip completely different weapons for me to use.

[@stephenvc]

Your enjoyment of this game will absolutely come down to how lost and immersed you can get in this world. I for one can't get immersed in this world mainly because I just don't care about any of the characters at all so to me this game often feels like it's obscenely wasting my time by having me run all over the place. Go here, Go there, Go back, Get that, Bring it here, and on and on. There's far too much running around in this game and I found myself very often enabling cinematic mode and mashing X with one hand while browsing the internet on my phone with the other.

Mack, I know it’s late, but I’ve recently just delved into this amazing game. If you want ease of play with the controls, for exploration and horse riding, go 3rd person perspective. When entering buildings, searching drawers/cabinets, and using your weapons, go first person perspective. It’s much better that way. First person helps in close spaces. Hope it helps!

Something that really broke immersion for me was after being mauled by a bear, covered in deep cuts and bruises and only just surviving, the cuts just disappear after 5 minutes. Was hoping I would be able to walk into camp or a town and everyone would react to it, asking what had happened or recoiling in disgust. But no, no ripped clothes, no wounds, nothing.

Do you think this game is more enjoyable if I play Red Dead Redemption (the first one) before this?

[@Starwars359]

Ryan Theres plenty in this game that relies on you having played the first. But it’s like Star Wars as in this is a prequel.

[@refl3x540]

If you play the first one play it before this because its hard to go back to because of how much this game improves upon it.

[@GRAFFDEMON]

It's definately more enjoyable. There's lots of references or in-jokes and certain characters where you're like "Ah, I see why that's the way that person is." etc.

[@mrahma8980]

You really don't if ya ask me, watch a video that just summarizes the RDR1 story and you're good to go.

@@WorthABuyreviews Awesome , looks like I know what I'll be buying for my dusty PS4 when my Birthday rolls around .

[@Enzo-bu5ii]

I purchased a PS4 Pro to play this game. It's so Immersive and detailed, like Rockstar take the level of detail to absurd levels on each new game. They're is a reason they're one of the most renowned studios, they sure do take a long time but its always so worth it. I never want them to change the formula, eh maybe Microtransactions can be scaled back and I hope they don't cut single player DLC for online. I just can't believe the sheer amount of detail within the game along with a 60 hour campaign.

[@EtherMagic]

Why in the world would you buy a Pro for this? I own both a Pro and a One X and in person, back to back the Pro version looks like serious shit compared to the X version, it looks like they smeared vasoline all over the screen, not to mention better performance on the X. I wouldn't of done that. Just do yourself a favor and never look at the X version of this in person, cause you will never look at the Pro version the same again.

The game is phenomenal, though the controls are a bit clunky at times. Give it a try.

[@Miloproductions1]

I got this game on a sale and let me tell you, as a console gamer, you are so spot on with the controls. I’m early into the game, and randomly running into O’Driscols while riding my horse to a mission can be an absolute nightmare. I either wipe them all out, or they completely shit on me. And yes! Simple shit like just looting cabinets, an example the early mission when u gotta rob that dudes house and take his carriage, absolutely annoying. Especially since u kinda feel timed since after all they are being distracted. Makes u not even wanna loot, but u have to tho early game from what I read.

[@PROTAGONIST_48]

[@davidsears5176]

Ultimate edition for PC came up 40% with an extra $5 off on a sale... I've had it on my wishlist largely because of this review, but waited a while. Downloading now. Your reviews carry extra weight Mack, we seem to both like and hate the same things in games. So you've actually become my primary reviewer after a few years because of that obvious shared taste.

[@michaelwesten4624]

no footage of first person? how about when you complained about some game that wasn't first person and now you're just fine

[@McSchwiftys_Vlog]

Michael Westen sucks with controller

[@Claude-Eckel]

If Counter Strike had also a third person view would you use it and talk about it? Same goes for games like RDR: first person is just plain bullshit. A gimmick, use it if you think that' this game is also a great FPS, but don't expect others to consider it worth mentioning it.

[@joehureau6251]

Always a pleasure watching your vid reviews.

[@ntomatas1]

On one hand the game is a technical achievement but on the other the gameplay suffers a lot. The shooting is sluggish and has huge input lag. Movement, looting, all activities are super slow and flimsy. Most of the time you just ride a horse and listen to dialogue. The game is super easy with minimum to no skill involved. It's a gorgeous casual game for the masses and for the press to drool over. If you are looking for gameplay, look elsewhere.

[@kpman644]

Well it's meant to be slow because the aim of the gameplay is full immersion unlike everything just magically appearing in your inventory. The shooting is meant to be somewhat sluggish due to the guns at the time. As for input lag there isn't any in my playthrough. The controls aren't great and if you're mainly a pc player are near impossible ta get used ta.

[@AntonChigurh-]

I bet you thought "The Last of Us" was masterpiece.

[@Enzo-bu5ii]

You can alter the controls in the options to remove a lot of that sluggish feeling. I recommend watching Boomstick Gamings controls video it makes it much, much better. Also change the aim assist to wide not standard. Or free aim like in the video
