CMcC Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Below are links to both The Telegraph and IGN’s impressions of a 45 minute demo of RDR2. If you haven’t already read or watched them, it’s a must. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.telegraph.co.uk/gaming/features/red-dead-redemption-2-exclusive-first-look-preview-comes-next/amp/ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VampireKrush Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 This sounds WAY more involved. I watched the video earlier today. If people are smart, this game will sell way more than GTA V and be considered the better game of the two but I am not sure that will happen. I am more excited to play it after watching this vs watching the last trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazed0NE Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Wow so they really went all out here. Even with the damn horses. "Skittishness" is now a thing. I have a feeling I am going to be playing this game a lot more slowly than the last one just to enjoy every aspect of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjo Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 For me this one video has hyped the game more than the three trailers combined 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the first one for more then half the game. When collecting sage, a cougar came out of the brush and killed her. It was devistating! It’ll be worse now that a relationship will have to be formed and nurtured! But I look forward to it. Ill also be playing this one slow. I don’t want to miss a thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMcC Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 How crazy is it that both Rockstar North and San Diego teamed up to do this? And the fact that the map will be bigger than GTA V ?! No jets, no fast cars, just a horse, wagon, boat or train getting you from A to B. The world will feel absolutely enormous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GatoNegro Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 I started watching this the other day and finished it earlier tonight and I am just mind blown at the attention to detail and creative thinking they put into this game. I also agree this has me more ready and excited for the game than those trailers. This is just a small part of the game as well.

HIGHHorse Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Just hearing guys who have played it talk about it in this way gets me so much more hyped then seeing the pictures or watching the trailers. I am glad they (IGN) were able actually to discuss it. I don't remember them doing this for the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjo Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 The persistence is what excites me. Losing your hat in a firefight and then having to go back later to fetch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMcC Posted May 8, 2018 Author Share Posted May 8, 2018 The tale of hunting the deer excited me too. Not the fact that the deer cries and suffers...but yes, that i guess. I don't like the cries of an animal dying but i appreciate the attention to detail and sense of realism. Does this mean all animals or enemies are not simply alive or dead? can you leave a man wounded in battle or defend yourself against a bear or cougar attack by shooting and not killing it? I don't know, but the possibility is intriguing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, but the possibility is intriguing. I'm wondering if the animal reaction will depend on where you shoot it. In other words, can you get a "kill shot" that will take down the deer more humanely or faster (to avoid chasing after it). This could have an effect on some players perhaps giving them an incentive (or a challenge) to place their shots more carefully. I'm very excited to see this level of interaction and detail in the game world and interested to see just how far they will take it. .....and how much influence the player will have.

VICKSUN Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Something else that can be interesting with hunting is the animal alerting other animals. So say you shoot a bear and kill it, it may cry out for other bears. Same with wolves and other canines. Also, what if shooting deer attracts predators because they smell the blood? I really like that these small details have been added. It will make the game feel so much larger overall. Like I could have fun just hunting at times without even needing to do anything else.

Maybe we will have ways of healing our horses or something like a first aid kit of sorts. I would hate to come to enjoy having a horse only for some crazed cat to come out a bush and kill it.

IF you’ve packed what you need for the job. ie: medicine, bandages. So at least there’s that. I’ll be fully stocked at all times! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suck3rPunch3d Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 I am going to be like a male nurse going through med school to keep my horse alive, especially if it is a good one with good stats and I am well bonded with it. If it wants to be a douche I will leave it by the river and call in the wolves. I am a terrible person. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjo Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Will be interesting how the horses will work online. Can't have your prized horse being shot by some spiteful kid now, so my guess is they won't give it a permadeath. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it comes to Online, you can respawn your horse. For a fee? And can your horse be impounded by the sheriff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesie Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Okay I saw the bit about how your horse will become more loyal and you'll grow attached to it but has there been any news on if we can have multiple horses that we can gain this loyalty with so that we can swap them out to make sure we've always got a backup in case Yellow Snow dies out in the wild from a shootout? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YellowDragon Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I just now got done with the video. I knew about it but been so busy, I kept forgetting to actually sit down and watch it. I am very impressed and surprised by how detailed all the little things in the game are. It seems like they put a lot more attention into this game than any other game they had previously made. I feel like they are trying to attract new fans doing this which is good. What is really impressive too and something to consider, this is only a small portion of the game. I can't imagine what it will be like playing it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't mind learning about it, knowing that simply reading a feature is nowhere near playing the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
