My major complaint was with the Guarma mission/chapter it was a wasted opportunity in my opinion, instead of being stranded in Guarma they should’ve landed in Mexico then had to work their way through Mexico into New Austin so Morgan can actually explore the two districts while building on the established lore in Mexico with Bill/Javier and maybe run into Landon Ricketts or Red Harlow?
I just wish they would find a way to make Red Dead Revolver actually part of the story versus all but ignoring it as if it never happened. I mean, R* pretty much only bought Revolver from Capcom just so they could eventually do their own GTA meets the Old West which they have with Redemption 1 and 2 but still.
@@alucard624 my favourite theory is that Red Dead Revolver is essentially Uncle being an unreliable narrator for his younger years... Red Harlow IS mentioned in both RDR and RDR2 so we can assume Revolver exists in some form, and in RDR2 Uncle says that he was known as "the one shot kid" in his youth, which is a nickname shared with Red himself... It's just a fan theory, but it's a fun way to justify Revolver being canon as Uncles youth, just glorified beyond belief over countless retellings over the campfire, making it almost entirely fictional.
I fought tooth and nail to keep bandit "my four legged best friend" alive through the whole game. From when I got her at the beginning of the game. So when they killed my horse at the last mission. I was so pissed i couldn't even see straight.
What breed was your horse? My first and second playthrough, I was all in on the Turkomans, but as time went on I started disliking how thin they were and how cowardly they were. At least in my experience. My third playthrough, I went with the Chocolate Roan Dutch Warmblood. I like it way more. It hurt when she died in chapter 6. Buell's technically better but I couldn't get over her.
The way I played this game with Arthur I did get a sense of redemption that I didn't get with John. John always ran from his past & he never escapes it. Where as Arthur accepts his past(pretty much has to) & decides to in someway atone for his sins without seeking forgiveness.
That being said, I always saw John as a Nick Carraway sort of character. Well-written and well-characterized (albeit not if you chose to rob and shoot anything that moved), but essentially meant to be a personification of the player with a personality of his own, if that makes sense. Still liked him a lot, and I love the development he gets in this game, but I really do feel like I had a lot more control over how Arthur as a character unfolded.
Sins are a social construct that others like the society and it's sentiments impose upon us or we by desire to socially relate with their emotions impose the feeling of ie moral standard of upon ourselves. I am not convinced that there has been reality to the existence of any era's morality or "sins" committed against it outside of the final social estimation consensus worth judgement an era's living social group takes of a person's relations with them and life's work at their death. Who the fuck cares that a bunch of people stand around your grave and muse on if you were a "good" or "bad" person or not by their standards? They are as insignificant and random opinioned as every other human who has ever lived including the deceased.
Hunter Gman, Arthur shares the opinions of the players because you can either choose to say that you agree with the feminism ideology, or you can say that feminism has always been a joke.
@@settingsun8403 kids are like a big crap, if you hold onto them for to long then they won't leave when you want them to. That's what you get for liking your own comment.
@@aramondehasashi3324 - bottom right-hand corner in your options. But you have to stand there and wait for the witness to tell the sheriff and then wait for the sheriff to come to the scene. And don't loot anything.
@@ginge641 Well the thing about many Westerns is how historically inaccurate they are. While RDR2 was inspired more by real-life events and places than by Western films and TV shows. That is the difference.
I absolutely love RDR2 and it’s one of my favorite games this gen. But yeah, the crime system was way too sensitive and annoying. Btw, I love all the wrestling and TMNT references you put in your game reviews 😄
Brilliant. Though I was waiting for a joke regarding the "honor" system in which cold-blooded murder can be completely redeemed by saying hello to a couple of strangers and throwing a few bluegill back in the river.
Well considering how some serial killers can get fans and fan girls just by saying hello to them, to the point where they defend them, it might be closer to reality than we think.
The wanted level system is by far the most broken part of an otherwise masterpiece of an experience. You accidentally walk into someone, the entire town immediately starts shooting you, and you can’t defend yourself at all without a bounty.
The justice system in the game is bulshit, i cannot tell you how many times i got mad as i helped people or was helping them and accidentally bump into them only for me to not gain a reward or simply fail a mission.
My favorite thing to do was Sprint into doors and break the glass so the patrons would gasp, but 50% of the time I would end up tackling an npc and getting assault
haha the intro was actually perfect! you are treating us lately Razor, fk we are getting a ton of videos from you lately, juicy ones too we need a few more Arthur style characters out there lately, my guy oozes that old and lost machismo while still being an absolute gent if you treat him right
I found Marston to be a more compelling character explicitly because he was more defined, it cast the story as a real tragic Western for me. Arthur Morgan can feel like he has multiple personalities with how he interacts with the gang and the rest of the world. Plus, sweet Jesus does Dutch piss me off.
Dutch pisses me off too because you can see through how fucking full shit he is with people and how manipulative he can be. It's sad that Arthur meets him and raised by him as a killer tbh.
This video should come with a warning for those with low testosterone levels that you may experience unexpected hair growth and/or a new set of testicles.
Games are for low t. The way the screen flashes with the ❌ hitmarker popping up for every kill looks very low t. The way they portray the KKK and South is also low t.
Just beat this with over 140 hours and I still have bounty missions and strangers missions left to do, as well as a few ambient missions. Red Dead Redemptions 2 is one of the greatest games of all time and Angry Joe is a moron for giving this a lower score than both Skyrim and RDR (I do love RDR). Not having a check all drawers button was a huge misstep, the wanted system was busted, there were a couple bugs... and that's all I have. The gameplay wasn't exceptional but it was fun as hell. The world, graphics, main character, side characters, story, variety of things to do were all brilliant. At any time you could give up on the gang and become a hunter/fisherman, or a mass murdering psychopath. I played most of my first 70 hours in third person and played the rest in first and both were excellent. I hope Razorfist entirely does reviews of The Witcher 3+the expansions and Metal Great Solid 3: Subsistence one day. I have a feeling he'll be forced to eat crow.
I love this fucking game. I never used quick travel once. The map of the game was just too beautiful to skip. I enjoyed taking care of my horse and Author so much that it didn’t even feel like a chore to shave take baths sleep feed and brush. I wish more game companies would take more time to make a game like rockstar does. If you make a good game and don’t rush it. Rockstar proves you can make more money releasing one game every few years.
38 views, 5 comments, 27 likes, and not a single dislike. It's so strangely exhilarating stumble upon a Rageaholic video so early. And yet, when I inevitably come back to watch this again and again, this comment will bear no relevance. Such simple thrill in this moment, yet before long will be lost… Like tears in the rain. …Also can't WAIT to finally get to playing this game. God-fuckin'-speed, pardner!
I played Grand Theft Auto V 3 times, the first two times where in third person mode varying between full body and over the shoulder. I accidentally engaging in the wrong button push, I started playing my third playthrough in first person mode, on a whim I let it ride.... Within minutes I was trading in my controller for a mouse and keyboard, and began what would be my favorite play through, on a game which though familiar, felt brand new. one highlight in particular was the trailer park fights with Trevor in the bikers, in first-person mode they're a total adrenaline rush. later on I adopted the Deus Ex human Revolution camera setup of first-person for everything except cover. when I inevitably replay Grand Theft Auto V, I will be doing it in first person. I'm glad to hear that Red Dead 2 has that option. to those PC Gamers who are still stuck waiting for what I assure you is a forthcoming PC port, in the mean time you may want to try Call of Juarez the Gunslinger to get that spaghetti western feeling.
Yea well... I would enjoy it... if the controls weren't shit. Alas they are and I can’t get into it. Its not just “contextualised” buttons, it is everything. From the analog stick only being used for walking leisurely and needing a button to even jog to having to press the trigger twice to shoot once for most weapons. Sometimes less is indeed more. I cant remember if RDR had this control scheme… I loved RDR. Can’t play RDR2, it pisses me off.
@@potatokira I have to check that when i find myself trying again to like it probably this weekend. I already changed the run from pressed to toggle to improve the situation but I haven't seen the option to use only the stick movement. It is not only that, those are just some examples. Another would be that afaik autopathing for the horse only exist when using the cinematic camera, however in cinematic camera you give up control and situational awareness. Furthermore the camera does not end on control commands, you have to actively end it. If I may be so bold to compare that to another horse in another current game: In AC:Odyssey it is one button and the horse follows the road to the next waypoint or quest marker and if you touch the analog-stick control is resumed to the player immediately. And again I don’t have to fiddle around with button mashing to get the horse to a certain speed, just move anlog-stick and be done. I give up expanding and shrinking horse testicles any time of the day for more user-friendly or comfortable controls. I don’t gave a damn about horse testicles but controls are essential if you get my drift.
I don't know about you but I always hated that whenever you're on your horse you always put your long arms away. I've been so used to them just being available in the last game that I've hopped off without my rifle and shotgun too many times to count.
this dudes mouth is definitely faster than my ears. im simultaneously impressed and annoyed that ill have to watch this several times to absorb half of what he's saying
An actual good open world pirate game would be nice. Black Flag doesn't count even though it was fun in parts. I have zero faith Skull and Bones whenever that gets released will be any good at all.
I recently started playing this game cause of razor, and I'm not disappointed. While it is super fuckin woke and some of the missions drag to get through because of this I don't mind. I just ignore the bullshit and go back to getting into shootouts. 10 out of 10!
I love the outro music ... because this song is what we performed in school ... 35 years ago. I was in the "male Oooh-chorous" and we got to "ride in" on hobbyhorses (which was a big joke). As for the game ... it looks great and very atmospheric, BUT it doesnt seem to be at the full potential yet, which is only unlocked with PC controls (and I mean PC-controls, NOT "console controls imported to PC" like in Skyrim!) and modding. As neat as deadeye looks ... it is a console-feature AND doesnt work in multiplayer anyways! This game could become something like a cross between WoW, EVE and Second Life ... if done right.
Lovely game. My only real gripe is that the game is massively open and immersive when you are exploring, yet violently force-fits you into a linear mold during the missions. The contrast can break immersion, but that's always been Rockstar. Very minor complaint in an otherwise amazing addition to Rockstar's catalogue.
5:53 THANK YOU! I had a four man posse after my ass for bumping into a hanged man. Out for BLOOD for a $5 bounty guns ablazing. 7:00 I am so happy you got inspiration from the stream for this joke you have no idea.
Excellent game, but some of the modern touches left me cold. Arthur getting all pissy about being Leo Strauss' muscle was eye-rollingly stupid. Oh, you can shoot up half of Saint Denis, but strong-arming a debtor burdens your soul?
1. If you want to instigate more duels, you can through holding down R2 slowly as you do inside the gunslinger missions 2. You can commit unarmed assault and without having a prior bounty you usually have an option to walk away, assuming you haven't done anything else (I.E beat him when his already unconscious) 3. The "tutorial" really isn't that long, chapter 1 is 2 - 3 hours or so long, pretty short in comparison to the rest of the game, or even compared to some other games with lengthy beginnings such as Persona 5 or Witcher 3.
Fair enough then, I admittedly am new to your channel, and that wasn't to say I didn't like your video, it was good. I just know people who say Persona 5 starts fantastic then turn around and say Red Dead's opening is slow, gets me all sorts of fucked up.
