This game is amazing and stunningly beautiful even on older hardware. It runs surprisingly well on my older gaming laptop. The game really encourages me to try different things too. I’ll be playing this for a while still, much to do.

Next up also picked up on sale though is Outer Worlds, I’m excited for that.

    Every now and again i try to get into it,but i just can’t get over clunky controls to immerse myself. I know if i could just endure few hours probably it would be worth it, but just can’t. So little time for so many games.

      It is so worth it. I’m not really bothered by clunky controls personally at this point as I just feel like if you are playing with controller then most AAA titles are clunky to control at this point. But I do absolutely see where you are coming from and could even see the argument that RDR2 is a bit worse in that regard than most.

      But holy hell is it worth it. I really think that it is the deepest game I have ever played. World building, story, character writing, cinematography, humor, self awareness, difficulty and fun. Its absolutely phenomenal, and I had high expectations going in.

      Please do yourself a favor and push through the control schemes. There’s so much to love there.

      What I started doing if I have to cross the entire map and don’t wanna ride the whole way is just plop down, set up my tent, and fast travel from there.

      If you have to ride your horse you can set a waypoint and turn the cinematic camera on. It’ll basically auto-navigate for you and looks cool while you’re doing it.

    I would count RDR2 as the last great AAA game we will see for a long time. Every thing else is eathera rushed peice of dogshit that needs a million patchs to work or is an indie open world survival game with zero content.
