The Reviews For Red Dead Redemption 2 Have Arrived, And They're Fantastic, So Large That It Feels Like A Chore
Red Dead Redemption 2, the sequel that fans have been waiting for for the past eight years, is finally here. Though fans may have to wait a little longer for the game, the critical consensus is clear: Red Dead Redemption 2 is gorgeous, albeit not without flaws.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a ‘marvelous achievement in every respect, and a shoo-in for one of the finest games of this generation,' according to our own Jeff Bakalar, who has been immersed in the world for more than 40 hours.
'I've been pouring hours and hours of effort into what I can certainly characterize as one of the most completely realized and explorable fictional worlds I've ever encountered. Overall, it's an incredible work of art and possibly the most accurate Western simulation ever created. 'Red Dead 2 makes Westworld seem like City Slickers,' Bakalar added.
Our pals at the Game spot have given the game a 9 out of 10, with reviewer Kallie Plague concluding: 'Red Dead Redemption 2 is an incredible prequel, but it's also an emotional, thought-provoking narrative in its own right, and it's a world that is hard to leave when it's done.'
Despite her tremendous appreciation, she did have some criticism.
'This applies to the layout of the story missions, which become predictable about halfway through the game. It's not that they're dull — quite the reverse, in fact, and there's a lot of motion from beat to beat,' Plague noted. 'However, after a while, a pattern forms, and it's easy to predict how any given theft or raid would proceed. This, too, becomes irritating, partly because you frequently have no means of materially influencing the outcome, despite any decision-making authority you may have imagined you possessed.
The game was lauded by Comicbook.com for its tremendous range of information, which is expected to keep players committed long beyond the calendar year.
'I've spent a good, long week plowing through all it has to offer, and I'm still digging, simply to see what surprise awaits me next,' says the author. In his 5/5 assessment, reviewer Robert Workman stated. 'The replayability is out of this world, whether you want to start a company for yourself or your 'family,' or just get into trouble with a few shootouts and wagon takeovers. We'll be playing for months and discovering something — and that doesn't even take into account the potential of Red Dead Online.
