Having sex in the game or not doesn't really bother me, It never really caught my interest even in Grand Theft Auto. I guess its just something I'm not to concerned about while playing games.

Those corpse walls aren't going to build themselves.

What a di*k.

Thanks Benjo. RDR2.org is my last spoiler-free zone before the release tonight. I've had to abandon my other sources until then as they all started to reveal a wee bit too much for my taste. .....and thanks @Gswaynas I know your heart is in the right place in sharing this information with others.

Once upon a time and only a few years ago, I had zero issues with Ubisoft. It took one game and them having terrible attitude towards their customers and worse treatment on their forums. I have zero interests in their pre-orders or their games. Rockstar in the only one I trust and even, then I have noticed I am a little reluctant towards their games.

So.. the opposite of Ubisoft, then? Also, your new profile photo pleases me.

I will be going to a friends house tonight and bringing my PlayStation 4 along, and we are all going to play on our consoles. Probably going to order some pizza and drink some beer.

We are hours away from the release of Red Dead Redemption II. It's been over eight years since Red Dead Redemption was released and it is undoubtedly a gaming masterpiece, one that has stood the test of time but if Red Dead Redemption II is half the game it's cracked up to be I know I won't be returning to 1911 anytime soon so it's farewell to the older more repentful John Marston. John Marston's story of redemption was one of the greatest stories Rockstar has ever told, characters encountered throughout the game were often relatable and had a great level of depth to them. Rockstar's ability to write truly engaging characters is one of the reasons I'm greatly looking forward to Red Dead Redemption II. Below is a video tribute someone made to Red Dead Redemption using various scenes throughout the game all put to "In Time" by Mark Collie, I think it makes for a great watch but if you haven't played Red Dead Redemption don't watch the video below as it shows key scenes from throughout the story.

Proud member of the minority right here.

Ah yes... The F13 forums. Once a sprawling place of innovative ideas and amazing people. But now it has turned into a ghost town. A shell of what it used to be. Such a shame really. I enjoyed the time i had on there, until it all went to sh*t.

At the risk of being a sceptical old fart, toxicity in gamers seems to be a fact of life nowadays, hopefully they will be removed, blocked or ignored, as the majority are indeed "nice folk".

What about a combination of ideas stemming from writers, written works and myth from the period. .....Brahm, Stoker, Shelley, Stevenson, etc. Maybe you fall into the role of a 19th century "monster hunter" of sorts with main characters that you need to defeat (Frankenstien, Dracula, etc.) but also other minions and victims that you encounter throughout the world. Voodoo in the Lemoyne region and yeah, maybe even zombies from legend. Just spitballin' here.....

Proud Star Wars OT Mega Dork, here. Love me some Star Wars. And I'll take being a "Star Wars Dork" over a "Harry Potter Loser" any day of the week.

I just saw that everyone is posting the first 20 mins of rdr2 gameplay today, along with reviews. I can’t believe who would want to watch this. After two years of waiting and the day before release, they choose to show the beginning to everyone? I just feel that they are ruining the experience for those who have waited to see it first for themselves. Also, I see that some YouTubers are posting a lot more than the beginning on youtube, it just seems kind of insulting to release all of this in-game footage the day before the game comes out. Definitely will be staying clear of all of this and seeing it all for myself tomorrow.

@Cokeyskunk you made me remember something funny happened this week: so i am getting ready to go to work, so is my lady, and and as always she is late and behind...So i started to watch a vid of the story of the development of red dead redemption. My lady barely understand english but she has heard "red dead redemption" many times over the years and specially this year with all the hype...and then she bursts: red dead redemption!! Red dead redemption!! Is all i hear in this house!!! Red dead redemption!!! I can't see the time when it gets released so i don't have to listen anymore "red dead Redemption"!!! Me: and i am up to here with your reality shows and the rundowns of the reality shows and the rundowns of the rundowns!!!... At the end...she took the car and i had to put on my spurs and walked to my job...like a true cowboy...

I have to admit, it not being in the game is weird. But it doesn't bother me at all, ****ing was not on my "to do list" for this game. Hell. I wasn't even thinking about it until i saw this thread.

Hi Have just picked up the game (live in New Zealand) and here is the official map

I always wanted to see a R* take on Friday the 13th. See how incredibly vastly it would differ from Gun's take.

There's only one reviewers opinion that i care about when it comes to games, and That's a youtuber called Worth a buy. Other then him. I don't care about all the big critics like IGN or Gamespot. R* and Santa Monica Studios(devs of God Of War) are the only two companys were i'll pre-order their games. Because i already know their games are going to be good

That's not the worst part...my wife recently, about 6 weeks ago, started playing RDR and got addicted. She had never been a gamer at all. So, thanks to me and my bright idea to get her involved, she doesn't want me to play it while she's working tomorrow, she wants me to wait for her. It is a serious catch 22 for me. I guess I could just wait until Sunday when I wake up. Saturday night I will be exhausted from moving. I think....I think I will cheat and play for a couple hours tomorrow. She jokingly said last night that she was bringing the disc with her to work so I can't play lol I'll just put the old RDR disc in the case and she probably won't notice! hahaha I'm such a snake!

After the whole "Coffee" incident with GTA San Andreas. I can see why they wouldn't. I can see your point, but as I said in another thread. To me it isn't needed for the game. I won't say Rockstar is a family friendly, but with our society being as sensitive as is about this kind of topic. I am sure that is a fight they don't want to have.

Took the day off 👍

I have super high hopes for the game, but until I play it, I have nothing to compare the other critic's ratings to. I will be able to soon enough though. I find usually the critics are well, very critical...so I figure if they are giving it those kind of ratings, I have even higher hopes and I am 99% sure I won't be disappointed. The most disappointing thing for me is that I have to move tomorrow and Saturday and after all this waiting and planning for the day of the release....I can't play it until Saturday night. It was devastating news!

The game just released. I think Rockstar is focused on the actual game first before adding extras. I think they will eventually put this feature in the game if requested by the majority.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooys!!!! It's THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!!!!

Such a shame the editor isn't in the game, but maybe it'll be added later on.

Well, thanks CMcC. You're one of mine as well. In fact, there are a lot of nice folks around here. I hope that doesn't change too much as the community grows.

@Kean_1, you’re one of my favorites.

Dorks.

Kindly say Hi to "Bob" for me please.. clearly a clever intellectual like my good-self ... lol

Enter an outpost like Ravenous. Have to solve a murder mystery. Figure out who the cannibal is. I do hope for some sort of ghost town experience. Whereas I am cool with zombies, they did already do that and Borderlands, and Call of duty, etc. I would enjoy something a bit more Lovecraftian.

I throw out a couple of speculations because I'm curious what other people are thinking while they wait....and y'all just talk about (me) being old and playing games. Being old sucks. The alternative sucks way, way worse. Playing games is still fun....and easier if you are old. Though the reflexes have slowed, the wallet has fattened.

Is this like a Netflix series or something

I suppose there is the added value of being able to do this:

I did know about the whistle thing and it's limited distances, I don't think it's going to help me though! Now I just have to just try and remember where I leave my horse when I go off adventuring on foot... 😂 Not long now!

I watched some of the leaked gameplay but I didn't find it at all interesting to watch, it appeared to have been recorded on a potato and the dude playing either had no functioning fingers or had never held a controller before.

Ooooooooooohh sh***********t

When a man and a woman love each other.... Wait, that's a different "talk". If I had to guess, there's plenty of people looking to score coveted "internet points" by posting leaks/spoilers. Having worked in retail, you'd be surprised how early they ship product out in advance of street dates to brick and mortar stores. You'd be even more surprised as to how easy it is to acquire these things early, especially as an employee.

I mean, if you're looking for immersion, it doesn't get more immersive than playing the game in first person mode, with the hud off, and using your phone as a map that you have to refer to when necessary. From a practical standpoint though, you're absolutely correct. There's no reason to do both when the convenience of everything on a large display is unmatched in terms of efficiency.

I did not see that interview, however I would like to. I know I had one version with the commentary but the copy I have right now does not have it. I did however find the audio from it on Youtube. Here is the link to the audio of that version with the commentary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRFnROOgCRI You'll have to sync it up with the movie obviously, which after I listened to the first 5 mins a few mins ago, you basically just hit play at the same time.

From what i've heard/picked up from the various previews, your horse will stay where you left it and you will have to go and retrieve it. You will only be able to whistle it if its within a certain radius of you. The better the bond you have with your horse, the wider that radius is.

Stone Cold is a pure badass, there's no denying that. Plus his style makes the most sense seeing as though he's Texan, and the game's set in Texas. I think? Awwww... *Insert sad violin music*. That's the other style i was going to go with as well. It's either that^ or a Viking style beard.

D*ck sword

Fair point. I guess we will see how it goes. Gotta hope for the best and be prepared for the worst if anyone is intending on buying this game with intention of playing online as part of the value factor.
