Red Dead Redemption 2

replaying this game and the absolute dread i am feeling is insane

there are little flaws here and there that stop me from making it a 5/5 but fuck that could change

god this game gets me fucked up

4.30 when?

Sadie is such a badass, she needs her own spinoff or sequel.

Graphics are absolutely top tier, better than anything I’ve ever seen but just about everything else just does not grab me at all.

honestly pretty sure this is the absolute worst the rockstar mission design has ever been. missions are so incredibly restrictive. plus the gameplay tries so hard to be realistic that it sometimes reaches points of unintuitiveness as a video game. that said, those are my only issues with the game. literally bar those issues (which are sizeable and prevent this game from being a 5/5), this is a masterpiece and one of the greatest and most important video games ever made

one of those scenarios where a 4.5 feels too low but a 5 feels like ignoring some major flaws (e.g. lack of choices, terrible mission design, segregation of open world + story, etc.). at the end of the day, my emotions get the best of me, and i side with giving it a 5
