During a masterclass lecture held at the Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie in Paris, Red Dead Redemption Lead Game Designer and Co-Writer Christian Cantamessa talked about the difficult decision that led to the ending of the game that fans know and l
There's trouble in the Old West as Rockstar games' big update for Red Dead Redemption 2 tips|https://reddeadstation.com/ Dead Online _ has players running for the hills. Hoping to cash in on the hype surrounding _Grand Theft Auto Online , the formula hasn't worked quite so well in the dusty plains of the American des
When Rockstar announced the update on Facebook, it didn't take long for the comments section to fill with angry rants from disgruntled players. Rockstar boasted "competitive gameplay" and "daily objectives" alongside "player customization and emotes." Instead, the company has delivered complaints about grinding, nerfed hunting abilities, and ludicrous microtransacti
It’s no secret that Red Dead Redemption 2 will be Rockstar’s most ambitious open-world game yet, with a map that is as massive as it is rich with characters, places and things to do. RDR2 is promising a living world and from the previews of said game it looks like RDR2 is going to deliver just that. Immersing ones’ self in the boots of Arthur Morgan (protagonist) would be a missed opportunity for feeling that immersion on an entirely different level. Things look a lot different when their happening through our eyes. While third person offers certain game vantages it can take away from the feeling of actually being whatever character.
Today Rockstar and Sony Interactive Entertainment showcased the content for Red Dead Online -- the online portion of Red Dead Redemption 2 -- that PS4 owners will be able to enjoy for thirty days before their Xbox One brethren get their hands on it as well.
Featuring a wool-lined, long coat with custom, hand-tooled leather accents, a leather vest with ornate pattern details, stand wing-tip collar with black neckerchief, and custom ornate buckle with matching boot tips, the Grizzlies Outlaw Outfit pays homage to the "boss" of the Northern States, its real-world inspiration.
Red Dead Redemption II is one of those hype games, but with trailers like this and Rockstar’s history, it’s obvious why. As more information comes out, it will become clear exactly what RDRII has learned with ideas new and old. The fact that it already brings up feelings of getting lost in a rich open world are almost enough. Now if we could just play the dang thing.
According to Cantamessa, they could have said "yeah, good idea, but no, John lives. Change the story. Who cares, it's just a game." instead, they supported the idea 100% and approved the additional costs, time and workl
Playing RDR2 in first-person could mean a world of difference for the very world. As mentioned, the west of Red Dead Redemption 2 is massive and seeing some of the vistas that litter every corner of this game are sure to be breathtaking. It’s that feeling of going on a good hike only to come up over whatever ridge and be swept away by what lays just over that horizon line. The world of RDR2 looks to be vastly versatile with mountains, plains, swamps and deserts. Traveling through the world of RDR2 in first-person is sure to be even more breathtaking than having to watch the butt-end of a horse as it poops. Not that there is anything wrong with the level of detail Rockstar is going for, but at least you won’t have to watch your horse do the business. Kidding aside, again, like GTAV when brought to first-person there was something much more tangible present in making ones’ way through the world. Being on the ground level of it all while interacting with all of it feels quite different than traveling through that same world in third-person.
"Rockstar Games has employed some creative techniques in cross-promotion. I think they're pretty exciting. Social Club has an awful lot of members and they're avid fans not just of Grand Theft Auto, not just of Red Dead Redemption, but also fans of Rockstar Games. I think it's great that there is some cross-promotion going
President Karl Slatoff also mentioned that Red Dead Redemption 2 will have an "all-new online experience," but declined to provide more information about it. The wording seems to indicate that the online feature of the game will be in some way different from Grand Theft Auto Online, but at the moment we have no idea
Whether wanting to play in third-person as RDR2 is presented or taking the plunge and playing entirely in first-person, Red Dead Redemption 2 is sure to be fun. It just might be more fun playing entirely through the eyes of Arthur. Obviously, one is not better than the other, but having the opportunity to experience the West with ones’ own eyes on the ground level of it all, with the amount of detail Rockstar has put in is sure to be a wildly different experience. Red Dead Redemption 2 comes out October 27 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
