These threads are just getting silly now

The caves in FarCry Primal were something special

What R$ do is not listen to their fans, over promise then under deliver. Example: "The GTA 5 map will be bigger than RDR and GTA 4 combined!!" Actuality - most of it is desert or boring underwater.

Unless there's a hidden DeLorean down there I'm not interested

Bigger the better for me. To explain, I spend a lot of time just roaming about. 12 months down the line if it is a small map then I get bored very quickly, I like to have expansive maps so I can go somewhere I haven't been for a couple of months etc

They were in the Revenant but they showed people working together and looked at it from their oppressed point of view, which I think is the way everyone would handle it.

I 100%'d RDR1 and have never played undead nightmare. I've just never been that interested in the whole zombie thing.

I wouldn't want to play a game where I ride around killing natives any more than I would want to play one where I press a button to gas a load of jews. It's not about hurting peoples' feelings, it's just morally wrong. I'm not saying ignore history, but they need to be sensitive about it. For instance, I wouldn't expect there to be black slaves in this game either. It's not ignoring history, it just has no place in a video game.

Every single GTA game fans ask for more interiors. Surely R$ must know it's what we want, right?

I've heard you get a real gun with it but only in America where it's OK for everyone to have guns

The delay had better have been caused by them adding this to the game

Do you play as the Nazis committing genocide on jews? No. Would we be playing American settlers committing genocide on native Americans? Possibly. This is what I mean.

There needs to be a lot of artistic license when putting this kind of thing in a game. It is a balance between fun and realism, between accuracy and ease of travel.

Yeah cinematic gameplay, where it's gameplay but not from the perspective of the player, ie with HUD etc

lol newsbot

Yeah my point is using the same sort of mechanic but a bit more realistic would be good. I mean, what did people actually do in those days? Maybe there isn't a viable alternative but who knows.. I disagree with this, in fact I would speculate that none of them cutscenes. The one where he is lying down does look like it may be one, but from experience of R$ these look like cinematic gameplay to me.

One thing I find interesting is in the 3rd shot he's walking and holding his horse. This wasn't a feature in RDR so I'm wondering if there's a more realistic way of how you interact with your horse on the way. As useful as it was the whistling was a bit unrealistic.

I think everyone has to face the fact that R$ are just really bad at judging the amount of time it takes to make a game.

This would disappoint me deeply.

As a side note check out "The Assassination of Jesse James" OST by Nick Cave and Warren Ellis.

For me it was the perfect soundtrack - calm, expansive, atmospheric. More of the same please.

I hope the storyline is completely different to RDR. The redemption part is in there purely to tie it in with RDR and I think that's enough.

Not sure how they would do it. For example, for XBox the GTA modded accounts are set up on 360 then ported over. As RDR2 is XBone only I'm not sure they can do it, unless R$ let you import your original profile from RDR1.

For $60 you can get a modded GTA account with $1bn and never have to worry about it ever again.
