A bland, western grind. Red Dead Redemption 2's cinematics and atmosphere are enough to draw you in for a solid few hours of first-time gameplay. Though well before the midway game point, the missions begin to become tedious and repetitive - "go to X point and talk to X person before riding to X point and shooting X". Although there is enough detail in this beautiful western world to keep you busy exploring for days - the clumsy controls, broken law system, tedious hunting and crafting and dull traveling become a nuisance and makes we wonder if this game is as polished as it should have been. I've been a massive Rockstar Fan since the very first GTA and have played GTA V multiple times on multiple consoles but there is something really lacking in the main mission quests and character progression, by the midway point I was really pushing myself to get through the main story and had little difference between new game Arthur and End Game Arthur (besides most of the characters becoming frustrating and unlikable - WHERE ARE YOU LEENNAAY?). I really have to question the review sites who have posted this as being almost perfect - it's an 80 out of 100 MAX.

Ending lowkey made me cry… genuinely a beautiful game that shows you just how insane story games can be
I think this has to be the only game I have ever played that got me feeling emotional towards the ends when {spoiler} dies. (you know who).
Honestly one of the best games I have ever played.

This game I've ever played the main character was so relatable and so rich and deep the graphics were amazing which even stands its ground to this day it's a must-player for everyone the only thing I didn't like was the combat which was too easy and kind of boring
