RDR2 - That's why this game has sold 45 million copies

A detail that is difficult to notice

The fact that it came out without major bugs or a 100GB update and just straight gameplay is a feat that not many devs this day can pull off.

RDR II isn’t a game.

It’s a work of art.

The animal-animal interaction in this game is insane. I witnessed a cougar attacking a pronghorn, a grizzly fighting a pack of wolves, an eagle catching a fish, 2 bucks fighting with their horns, you find something new in this game everyday.

I also love in the game how the landscape changes as the years go on. Where dirt paths used to be, will eventually become railroad tracks and other progressive changes to the environment. So cool!

This game is on a level of its own when it comes to the world environment and world building. I doubt Rockstar puts this amount of wildlife detail in GTA6.

[Kaairve]

I cannot just believe Rockstar made such a masterpiece and just gave up on the game. This is insane.

I think Red Dead 2 is probably the greatest showcase of game design ever, the meticulous detail of everything is just insane and probably has the most intriguing story I've ever played. I don't know if its personally my favorite game ever but that's probably only due to the nostalgia of Fallout 3 and new vegas.

Bro in the story mode thats a location where a father and a son are starting to build a house and throught the game the house is progressing until its entirly built . Incredible

when you rob a coach and kill the guards, if you stay there for a while the law will go and normally you'd run away, but if you stay close enough and see from afar, you'll see how they "clean" the scene, they pick the corpses and carry them to the closest town. it's a detail i just saw on my fourth playthrough, maybe everyone already knew it, but when i found out i thought it was sick, the level of realism in this game is sick.

Played this game for the first time this summer and it legitimately changed my whole view on what video games can be. The story is top tier, the graphics and mechanics are insanely good. You can tell it’s a game made by people who where extremely passionate about it. It’s amazing what can happen when your developers take their time making an immaculate game instead of pumping out a new one every year for money

I played this game a few years ago and never finished it, But I always was incredibly impressed with how well thought out the game was put together. Story, imagery, world details. It truly is a masterpiece. I hope to get back into it again someday when the time is right and really give it the playthrough it deserves. Nothing but respect for this game and huge props to the devs. Outstanding work.

Rockstar made rdr2 so good that they didn't know what to do next.. it's a masterpiece

[FoXcodeZ]

It's amazing how well-crafted this game is. So many small details that showcase the quality of this game. You can see that the developers put a lot of heart into it.

This is the first (and only) game that I was able to completely immerse myself into as an adult. Thank you, Rockstar, for giving me that child like joy again.

I've played this game 5 times and never get tired of it. Just amazing

I recently found out that hawks/eagles are a good way to get perfect snake skins (since shooting them with the recommended ammo type of game arrows with the bow still can damage the skins) I found a hawk sitting on a roadway and it flew off as I road up. I noticed an a marker on my minimap for a dead animal so I stopped and look and found a dead snake that the hawk had dropped that I was then able to skin for a perfect snake skin.

I remember getting in a gunfight in Valentine and I was on a roof, my horse was below. I was thinking “no way the game would let me jump off the roof onto my horse and ride away like some old western movie” i jumped and pressed the mount horse button and I did exactly that. I was blown away by that tiny gameplay mechanic.

Welcome to one of the most detail-oriented video games ever created. I remember when I was in the snow in single player, coming back to where I had traveled some time earlier and still seeing my footprints. It was at that moment that I knew they went far above and beyond with this game. Too bad multiplayer didn't get the same level of love.

I felt like a kid again playing this game, it was breath taking. Released it working condition an amazing game from the start so much attention to detail so much to do

[mandoelorryann]

The story and the sheer amount of details that went into this game is what made it LEGENDARY 💯
