Right now, I don’t have a PC. Long ago, when I did have one, the first AAA game I ever played was Red Dead Redemption 2. I have played other games, but I feel like RDR2 surpasses all of them and is legitimately one of the greatest games ever made. The amount of details dedicated to realism, the solid storyline, the amazing graphics, NPCs getting angry/creeped out when you follow them for too long, and the hilarious antagonistic insults. I can just go on and on about this game. This is undoubtedly Rockstar’s best achievement yet, and I can’t wait to see how they top it with GTA 6 releasing next year.

    Genuine piece of advice, if you have the patience for it - walk everywhere, don’t use fast travel. Treat it like a hiking sim sometimes and it will reward you with vibes like no other game.

    It does mean that sometimes you’ll have a session where nothing happens and you don’t progress any of the missions/story… but I always found it to be super worth it.

      Absolutely. Just stumbling on an empty shack but the contents telling a tale about who was there before is fascinating. Among many other reasons.

        I found this video rather relevant. It made me enjoy some nice sunsets on the witcher 3 (started playing it recently):

        Maybe it will enhance your play through as well. I agree sometimes not much happens, but it feels more rewarding than trying to min/max the run for whatever reason.
