#18 Red Dead Redemption 2 - Chapter 2: Horseshoe Overlook - "We Loved Once and True"
14Red Dead Redemption 2 is an Open World game developed/published by Rockstar Studios/Games which is a numbered sequel of Red Dead Redemption (or RDR). Being a prequel, the game sets its timeline during 1899, 11 years before the events of the previous title, and focuses heavily during the existence and actions made by the Van der Linde Gang at the time. In here, the character you’ll be heavily using is Arthur Morgan, a lieutenant and one of the original members of the Gang. Co-leading the Gang is Dutch Van der Linde and his best friend Hosea Mathews while other notable members consists of returning Red Dead Redemption protagonist John Marston, his wife Abigail Roberts and son Jack Marston; the ever so lazy Uncle; returning RDR antagonists Bill Williamson and Javier Escuella; and newly obtained members Micah Bell, Charles Smith and Sadie Adler. The game’s story focuses itself in the Gang’s struggle for survival from all of their pursuers and enemies groups which was caused by their actions, both honorable and questionable ones, and on how such events led to its inevitable disbandment.
Having a Metacritic score average of 97, the game went on to be the highest rated game of 2018 and one of the best critically acclaimed games of all time and thus, resulted in obtaining around 135 Game of the Year awards or top 1 lists (based on GAME OF THE YEAR PICKS BLOG: 2018 GAME OF THE YEAR (gotypicks.blogspot.com)) among various and notable gaming media outlets in the world which was second only to God of War (2018). Praises were given to its overall story, memorable characters, the scale and details in its world design, top quality graphics, and how advanced the AI of the NPC’s in the world which puts life in it. On the other hand, criticisms were mainly focused on its slow pacing and outdated fighting mechanics.
As for me, I can say that this is one of the most memorable and best open world games I ever played due to its great story and characters, the details and diversity of its world and how it melds it together flawlessly with minimum bugs and issues. As for my problems, the slow pacing of the story’s early parts made me bored sometimes. However, when the game sets on its climax, it lived up to its expectations as one of the most beautifully crafted games of all time and a great story which will be remembered for a very long time. A deserving game of the year candidate I am sure. So please enjoy the walkthrough!
