Red Dead Redemption 2: Discussion & Speculation (Part 3)

[Cutter De Blanc]

Haven't watched the 48 minute gameplay trailer for the game I'm not interested in

I wonder if they did something about the 5 minute loading screens between death and reload though, stopped playing Witcher 3 because of it. The way I get good at games is by making mistakes and dying a lot. When I have to sit around with my thumb up my ass for 40 minutes staring at loading screens because I can't beat some random f*cking wyvern on the path or whatever I don't want to keep playing it.

Oh I think I got lost... I thought I was on gtaforums but it seems I'm on CDPRs forums reading whiny posts about a game that is really still a work in progress and not gonna be released anytime soon.

Cyberpunk seems like a game that I’ll have to wait till release and see the feedback but RDR2 on the other hand... B) I’m going to be the first person in my town to play it that’s a guarantee.

And...?

[Nini23a]

stop with cyberpunk  here please 

[Knightfury]

Rockstar and Cdpr and sort of similar devs but marketing of their games are completely opposite , I seriously can't believe they showed us a 45 min gameplay demo years before release that too of missions not that I'm complaining though but i think they released this against the pressure of the public demanding gameplay also i don't think we will hear anything more about this in 2018

Oh man, the animations in RDR2 are beyond anything I've seen in gaming. CP2077 feels like an old-gen game compared to this. That's my honest opinion.

[thedarkman123]

You know whats bothering me? we just saw 48 min of a game which going to be released 2 years from now, we have a game coming out less than 2 months and we saw totaly a 6 minues of it...This week should be the week to set things straight, no more 5 min gameplay sh*t.

 

Rockstar release the 45 min demo damn you!

No, please don't do it R*. I'm glad that R* doesn't release footage of their upcoming games on a daily basis ... there's a new video for Spider-Man coming every day now and tbh it just showed me that the game is not worth its money. It seem repetitive and really lacking content. I mean a 12-18 hour campaign for a singleplayer game says enough, right? On top of that some of these Spidey animations are really weird and awkward.

[Horrid_Saiyam]

Lol releasing a 45 minute gameplay video is not a good idea at all

im glad R* don’t do that kind of sh*t stuff

Please nooo...This is the strenght of R* and RDR2...the game doesn't need it.

[Nini23a]

R* is R*

R* is bae. Other games are like a fling

[Emmi]

@Spider-Vice When will you update the timeline?

[lndex]

Do you lot think that R* might drop the merch this week...possibly on Friday?

It really might have been as simple as a scheduling conflict with other games being highlighted, let's not make a mountain out of a molehill. 

My theory is that it was never Rockstars intention for GI to cover RDR2. Their marketing strategy is just different this time and they wanted to try something else... at least that's my guess.

That's my guess also and honestly it paid off ... I mean I enjoyed their first round of previews way more than I did any of the past Gameinformer cover stories.

Greenrock(cattlecalypto) is fuming at Resetera because people there are saying Cyberpunk is more impressive than RDR2,its hilarious.

They probably patched that, similar to how people complain about Bloodborne loading screens but the game has been patched to fix them.

Rockstar is the only one that does this. Theres another game I'm following, "Code Vein", they showed tons of gameplay footage 1.5 years before release. Same with AC: Odyssey. Same with Spider-man(don't give a sh*t about this game). 

 

Do I think 48 minutes of gameplay is overkill? Yes. Should've been like 10 minutes. 

[Auditore]

Guys you can praise RDR2 without putting Cyberpunk down,that game is doing amazing stuff,the density of NPCs the immersion in the open world the UI,the branching narrative,yall can't just say that's nothing.

Why would anyone even compare the two? Makes no f*cking sense to me. Two different games for different audiences and different genres. Literally the only thing they have in common is that they're both Open Worlds. That's about it. Same can be said about people comparing it to GTA. Like what the f*ck are you even on about? "CDPR literally just put everyone else in the gaming industry to shame" No they f*cking didn't. The demo was cool but it certainly wasn't the most mind blowing thing of all time or the second coming of Christ as some were describing it as.

[Emmi]

You could compare 'R* vs. the rest of the industry' situation with a tennis match.

 

Like R* is the one developer always pushing its opponents (= the other developers) at any time over the course of the match way beyond the baseline.

The other developers are always just running left and right trying to gain the upper hand but ultimately they'll lose because R* keeps pushing them back.

The others are just reacting all the time whilst R* is dictating.

 

That's a nice comparison I bring up every now and then.

I see Cyberpunk's demo as the Deus Ex game everyone deserves,i can finally see why the game is first person CDPR is aiming for that "immersive sim" feel.

About the Rockstar comparisons,it's inevitable.It's a syndrome in all kinds of media  i call it the "King's killer syndrome".The King rules the town,everyone respects or fears him,then the new hotshot guy arrives people starts doubting the King's power because the new guy looks way more powerful than the king.Example of this in gaming?That Halo-Killer talk in the 2000s
