The best open world I have ever played
When I think of an open-world game, I think of RDR2. Some of you may think of Witcher 3, but I'm sure they're second in line with this game. Open world games are very boring to me and after a while, it repeats itself. But for once in this game, I didn't feel like I was falling back when I was in the open world. All the venues are different. Not only are they different, but they all also have their structure and task system. Wherever you go, you see other buildings and you see a lot of different types of events. Even at the extreme end of the map, you can discover new things. This makes the game walkable and worth exploring. That's a trait that should actually be in a real open-world game. When you copy and paste all the locations, after a while players see no different things, so the game's sense of discovery decreases. And yet they leave half the map untouched. At least that's what I do.
However, when playing RDR2, I didn't leave a point on the map where I didn't step because I was very curious about what the map would offer me. For example, I saw a mountain on my way to a mission. I don't know why, but I was wondering if I could climb to the top of that mountain, so I figured out a way to climb. Then I got off my horse and started walking on the slopes of the mountain and realized there was a road there. I followed the road and suddenly I saw an NPC hanging itself. He left a note and left himself to die there. I came across this completely randomly, and I liked it too much. And when I saw things like that, I started looking at every corner of the game to see what other mysteries there were. Even if it's a bit of a hassle to navigate the game, once you've improved your horse, you can get somewhere fast. If you're having trouble finding yourself a horse, a little advice is to go to the snowy areas and look for the white horse. I'd say my enjoyment of the game increased tremendously after I found that horse.
Great Story, Greater Side Quests
Let's get to the crucial point of the game for me. I'm a player who prefers to play story games. Although the story of this game starts incredibly slowly and bores me a little at first, it becomes very moving at a certain point. The story takes me to a point I never expected. You're constantly throwing yourself into other things and questioning both your gang and yourself. The storytelling is beautiful and you can relate a little to all the characters. This really motivates you to play the story. At some point, as I mentioned, the story of the game becomes incredibly drama-containing but incredibly exciting. Apart from that, I have seen the most creative and diverse side missions I have ever played in this game.
The tasks I took from random people I saw on the road were so pleased that sometimes I forget the main story and remember working sideways for days. Side missions certainly don't repeat themselves, and they're all very well written. Some of them are even more enjoyable and long than their main missions. Wherever I was on my way to do the main mission, I immediately accepted. Even if I couldn't do it at the time, I really wanted it to appear on my map and experience it when I was available.
Probably The Best Game Ever
RDR 2 may be one of the best games I've ever played, or perhaps even the best I've ever played. With its wonderful open world, excellent storytelling, and incredible graphics, it certainly has its name in gold letters in the game world. I don't know if I'll play again because the game is too long.
Side missions don't end as long as you do them (that's a good thing). Apart from the missions, you are really entertained by the conversations you have in your camp, campfire evenings, and the games you play together. If you haven't played yet, you definitely have to give this game a chance.
