@Aimesleje...harsh words...but true nonetheless. I am getting rdr2 mainly for the storyline, wich was amazing in rdr1.
Same as you i am not really hyped by the heists in the storyline but far from hyped of the ones in the online component by the same reasons you just exposed.
As the online component i feel the same way as you. You get online only to find 90% of the players being scumbags that ruin the whole experience. In all these years (as you since day 1) i only had a few moments and far in between where i found cool players to play with, complete missions and heists...
On the other hand i do believe that R* is aware of these situation. I do believe that they are aware that their audience are not only kids with their parents credit cards, but an audience that has grown old and are adults looking for a great gaming experience. I do believe R* knows their market and their audience and the standards they require as adults that, like myself, go to work, earn our money and pay for a high quality gaming experience...maybe i am asking too much....In a few weeks we'll know.
