Red Dead Redemption 2: Discussion & Speculation (Part 1)

[Spider-Vice]

It was obviously fake, that isn't RAGE. It's probably another game. BTW, let's try to keep this thread clean of that too. We need to cry more at Rockstar waiting for official info.

[BLOOD]

GTA VI when GTA V and Online is still dominating? Ha please. Anyway it looks like the pic was fake, well back to boredom again

[Father Girth]

Tomorrow seems like the last chance, in my mind, at least. Next week'll be more Online bonuses so they can't let anything take away from that obviously But I've preemptively changed my vote to delay and embraced the "Darkness" as some would say

[RedDagger]

Those willing to change their vote are cowards, charlatans, easily beguiled; the unrepentant independent modern man knows not shame, nor the fear of being right; steadfast, untoward the mysteries of the future, learning, adapting in anticipation, relentlessly, nary the thought of simply softly moulding into the ever changing cliffs of life.

 

aka f*ck's the point of a poll if you change your vote

I'm gonna change it again to February just to irritate you, RedDagger

[Zello]

So it's either May or delay.

 

June or we're doomed

Yea I mean at this point it'll be more surprising if it's not delayed. Ah well, I'll hold a small bit of hope but we'll see.

A month until our E3 prediction game begins. I really hope we're pleasantly surprised next week though for the RDR anniversary.

Facebook page is still hidden

Facebook page is still hidden

Back to normal scheduling with our conspiracies!

 

Damn though, forgot to check that for a few days, this is really still strange. Why hide it when it's about an old game? As surely RDR2 would have it's own page like GTA V.

[Spider-Vice]

I recently read Facebook hides pages when they take them down/suspend them for whatever reason. I wonder if this happened and R* hasn't noticed or doesn't care enough.

They did just get rights to the facebook page for RedDeadRedemption2, can't be a coincidence...at least I hope

 

Plus why would Facebook remove all the RDR2 fanpages and take down the Red Dead Redemption one to only give Rockstar the RedDeadRedemption2 link?

MAY 18!!!!

MAY 18!!!!

No. Bungie is showing off their gameplay of Destiny 2 on a livestream that day. I doubt Rockstar would want to rival that.

It's the perfect way to increase market capitalization over Activision

[Father Girth]

We're all biased here on the Red Dead forum so I don't think some of you understand how popular Destiny and Call of Duty are with the larger gaming audience. They're both going to sell like hotcakes.

But I can bet pretty much everyone who buys both of those games, will also buy RDR2. Games made by R* are almost essential. Any person who has played games throughout their lives, have played at least 1 R* game. No game can compare, no game will derail or dethrone RDR2 this year, or any game from R* going forward for that matter. They're so rare these days that the hype surrounding them is so big everything else is an afterthought. Sure, I'm excited for other games this year, but RDR2 is #1 and that's not changing.

A lot of younger gamers would be a lot more familiar with Destiny and Call of Duty than Red Dead. 18 year olds were 11 when Red Dead Redemption came out. 15 year olds were 8. That said, all those kids need to here is "it'll be like GTA but a Western" and they'll all migrate to Oklahoma in a heartbeat.

Question: Do you people think that R* will repeat the physical similarities with characters and voice actors like in GTAV?

Yes, definitely. Assuming you mean "physical" like motion-capture.

They broke so many basic film rules in cutscenes. They "crossed the line" so many damn times, something I literally learned not to do in film 101. It made some cutscenes feel so damn confusing to watch.

They went up against the Nintendo Switch announcement in October. R* don't care. If they want to announce something, they'll announce something.

[Starboy]

What a day it will be when Rockstar finally releases anything RDR2 related.

Damn man, I'm only 22 but your post made me feel old lmao, is it me or do other people find it hard to realize in a way that there's always someone out there younger than you? I dunno maybe it's the weed hittin me, but it's just mind boggling to me that when I was 16 getting hyped AF for RDRs release there was some 7 year old out there that didn't even know it existed.

This is absolutely true. I'm 17 and was 10 at release. A friend gave me the game about a year after release, and I liked it then because it was a fun action game. It wasn't until about 2 years later while replaying it that I really fell in love with the game and appreciated its story.
