Chad pirates like me don't have buyers remorse.
Aye
no, you just don't know if the shit you download is safe at all or a keylogger
@@EXHellfire You seem not to know anything about piracy.
This is true. There are different types of people who enjoy different types of games, if you go in to a peaceful adventure story and exploration based game expecting an action based fast paced game with tons of combat detail, of course you'd be bored.
Its so slow, played for about 15 hours focusing on the main story and i could not let go off the feeling that i was going nowhere and that i was just walking around so that the devs could say "hey our game is sooo long"
No one cares lol
Dopamine addiction be like...
@@OnlyTwoShoes not really, i have played a lot of long games because i dont really like online games. Went by Nier automata, elden ring, diablo 3 and 4 and others. All these games can be viewed as slow paced but you get a sense of "ok thats little progress", that feeling is nowhere to be seen in the 15/20 hours that i played RDR 2, even RDR 1 was more rewarding in terms of getting pieces of the story in a better pace
@@mauricio_moura8 it's like you didn't read anything I wrote
@@OnlyTwoShoes you are talking like i want to get a loot box or a prize in every corner of the game, whats not true. I just want to make progress that matches the time investment, you can have a slow game that still gives you a sense of acomplishment and direction.
So I wasnt the only one who thought the pace in RDR2 was cumbersome,everything moves so slowly,from the story to the simple tasks.
It doesn’t move any slower than a GTA game lol. No one cares if you don’t enjoy the game. It doesn’t make you special
@@vinny1537 And no on cares about your stupid remark genius.Cope some more.
@@vinny1537 I care, I'm happy to see people actually criticise what they don't like about a game. RDR2 is my all time favourite but it isn't for everybody. No-one cares about your comment tho so kindly fuck off
@@vinny1537 bro you're gonna HATE the topic of this video then
As someone who loved RDR2, I agree that it's okay to put a game down at anytime. I've tried Prey, Control, and Bloodborne but they didnt click. It was a shame because i heard they were so great. Thankfully they were free on PS+. I usually give a game a few hours to the point where I fully understand what the game has in store for me.
The Witcher 3 too. it's like a 9 or 10/10 on every one's list, but I couldn't play it more than a few hours.
Same, I played it a few hours and was like, this is way too much dialogue for me to enjoy, I get how other people like it tho.
played TW3 all the way through and it's a lot of time I won't get back. It was disappointing throughout the entire experience. I don't get what others see in it.
This is how Balders Gate 3 was for me
Great video, I subbed.
The more i played rdr2 the more its flaws came through.
I was lucky to have played it when i had basically nothing else in my life. But now it just seems like too much to do another playthrough. I have too many other obligations.
RDR2 feels like a show you can't just rewatch a single episode of, you have to watch through it beginning to end. While thats not bad, its understandable why so many can only do that once. Its not a "lol youre a dumb fortnite kid" scenario, not everyone has the time or mental energy.
There's a reason the most popular games (league of legends, fortnite, gta) e.t.c are just very frequent dopamine hits to the brain that becomes addictive, like playing a slot machine for a gambling addict. Getting out of that cycle as an adult is quite difficult, I have to turn off my other monitors and turn off the internet so no discord or anything distracting me.
These long story games like god of war/starwars/red dead/resident evil 2 remake e.t.c I have to play at night with the main room light off + colored lighting behind the monitor to increase the mood based on the game I'm playing AND be in the RIGHT mood for the RIGHT game.
Also if you've studied or done a days work you will have more appreciation for the game rather to just waking up and playing straight away I find.
I have The Witcher 3 in my library and think I will just have the same experience you are having in that it's going to be slow paced and difficult to appreciate it like you're in the game yourself. This never used to be a problem as a kid with things like metal gear solid/final fantasies/tomb raider. The brain has got used to these dopamine hits of shooting someone every 5-10 seconds in counter strike or whatever drug game we all play is. Path of exile spamming 2 buttons round maps for 4-8 hours a day sound familiar? Try playing a 40-50 hour story game after that. Not easy.
Ironically, I really enjoyed The Witcher 3, played it for like 60 hours and beat the campaign, but that was almost 10 years ago. You're spot on about the right mood for the right game.
Once rdr2 gets to chapter 4 that's when shit gets real
Meaning the first 3 chapters are totaly boring and have nothing to enjoy
@@1vaultdweller they're good don't get me wrong but chapter is where it gets even better
@@unnot5706 Whats good about the first chapters? Unnecessarily 15 min long walks/horse rides between missions and dialogues about things the player doesnt yet know?
GTA did it too but here its x50 more boring
@1vaultdweller Chapter 2 is still fun, Chapter 3 is even more fun. It's a gradual increase. Also the reason GTA's feels more fun is because driving is more fun than horse riding
Yeah that’s one idea. Or you’re just wrong. (Joking)
I agree about the controls. I seriously do not understand that they could not make controls for the pc that are easier to use. While playing the game i usually have to think a couple of seconds what button i have to press to do a certain action, they do not make sense. Actually that was my biggest problem with the game, i just could not get used to them. I plan to install the game again in near future and finish it because i like these sort of games.
Same thing happened to me with RDR 2, but I started liking it. I had to wait through that whole beginning cutscene and walk through the snow at the pace of a snail only to start the game. After that, the first chapter felt so slow and boring. Just walk through the snow with your horse, go hunting, walk through the snow some more, murder some guys...
I went through it the 4th time I decided to give this game a chance. After finishing the 1st chapter and getting to the second one, i really started enjoying it. I feel like a real cowboy. I can tie people up, kidnap them, tie them up and pull them after me while i ride the horse...
I think I made as far Chapter 2 before giving up. I want to give it another try, this time on PC. But I've already bought it once on Xbox, so I'm in no hurry.
Its good to be an independent thinker because we don't all have to like the same things
Yeah, the older I got the more I realized how I'd let myself be convinced of public discourse regarding what's good or not. Now I enjoy games more than I used to because of separating from that influence.
I had a similar issue with Red Dead Redemption 2, loved the first game but the second one's pace was too slow for me at the time. I plan to go back & give it a second chance, but I'm also positive I'll enjoy it now that I know what I'm getting into with the pacing.
Shout out to OnRush footage as well, amazing game that doesn't get talked about enough. I've played 100's of hours of it & if I didn't keep getting destroyed by the same people anytime I booted it up online I would've kept playing more.
I have a written review of Onrush ready, and I hope to have the video ready by the end of the month. I played the game recently, so unfortunately I couldn't try the online servers, which made me quite disappointed by the lack of an offline split screen mode. Overall, it's another good racing game by Evolution Studios (or whatever name they were using at the time).
beautiful video man
Thanks!
Defo see your point on most huge long RPG's its always one mans trash is another treasure. Me i loved this game over 100h playing through it but my daughter i gave it to her and she tossed it back to me couple days later saying it sucked LOL.
I had the same feeling, i didn't like the horse mechanics at all. But I will give it a chance again sometime after I finish the games that already have
There is always something for everyone
Same, but I kept playing and I liked it.
I am still strullging to get through it, I'm like 20+ hours in, but the gameplay is not fun to me, the environments are beautiful and the characters are interesting, but the gameplay feels like a chore, I'd rather watch it if it was a movie.
I have tried to get into RD2 numerous times, to slow and really boring...
ATM I'm playing Ghost of Tsushima, epic combat, epic story... can't get enough of it...
The witcher 3, AC Valhalla, Far Cry 6 uninstalled before end.
I'm not sure what you thought this game was when you started playing it. This is an open world Cowboy simulator. This game isn't about moving things at a breakneck pace. You're supposed to slow down and just immerse yourself in the world. You can watch someone eat an entire plate of food in real time. You can follow a rabbit all the way up until it gets picked off by a hawk that had been circling around it the whole time. This entire game is supposed to take you into the world. It just so happens that when you emulate the world to that degree it has to have a lot of downtime. If that's not the type of game you want to play then this just isn't the game for you.
Exactly. These people expect to load up GTA5. This is a western. It's literally a masterpiece. People say they can't get enjoy, but it offers practically everything you want from a game about cowboys.
Part 1: its okay to quit games you dont like
Part 2: if you stop doing things that make you unhappy, youll be happy
im one of the only few that bought rd2 to play online. i had 300 hours before i even touched the story and i cant seem to motivate myself to play through it.
It's ok, after completing the main story and epilogue i played for a little bit but dont play it much now.
The most recent one for me was Dragon’s Dogma (the first one, not the new one). I played it for about 20-ish hours back March/April of last year. I’d had the game on my wishlist for about four years, since 2019, and I was constantly being told how it’s “the best action RPG ever”, that it had one of the best combat systems in gaming. I even remember hearing Shadiversity on RUclips claim that DD’s combat was better than Dark Souls, a series which I’d just played the year prior, in 2018, and had quickly become some of my favorite games of all time.
To summarize my experience: Dragon’s Dogma has one of the most bland and empty open worlds I have ever seen in a video game. Whatever interesting content the game supposedly has, whether that be the giant monsters or the ‘cool spells’, I saw very little of in those 20 hours of playtime. Most of my time was spent walking through the same portions of the map repeatedly, fighting the same non-threatening wolf packs and goblin parties (which have fixed spawn locations, meaning they’ll always show up in the same places every time), following the quest objectives.
I eventually came to notice how every location I found on my own would, at some point, become the site of a quest line. Which led me to a theory: I don’t think there are any optional areas in the world that you’re meant to discover on your own. If you just follow every quest you’re given in the main hub town, it feels like you might end up seeing most or even all of the world by the end. So, it’s an open world game where exploration is largely pointless, especially when the best moments seem to be triggered by story-related events.
After watching some more videos and discussions after I quit playing, the consensus seemed to be that it’s one of those, “It gets good after X hours,” type of gmaes. And I’m just not in the business of doing that. If I was at least having some fun during that time, I might’ve considered continuing with it, but frankly it was just dull, because hardly anything exciting or intriguing was happening. Most of the game is walking to the next destination, and stuff only happens _at_ the destinations.
I’m also shocked by the reviews I’ve heard regarding the sequel, Dragon’s Dogma 2, because it sounds like a lot of these design choices are still there, to some degree. I heard that low-level enemies still have fixed spawn points, there’s apparently still not a _ton_ of locations off the main path, though perhaps more than the first entry. I was told that the reason DD1 was like this was due to the game running out of its budget and Capcom shoving it out the door while it was only like 40% of a complete game. So why on earth would these problems still plague a sequel, 12 years later?
I'm not a fan of the "it gets good after X hours" either, especially if the "X" is something like 5 or 10 hours. I know some games demand more handholding at the beginning, but it should at least be interesting.
Idk if I wouldn’t like it but I’ve still never played it’s got no technology! I wanna drive around a car or something
Me with 1800 hours in story mode: ☹️
It's not really a game so much as it is an artpiece which you are supposed to navigate. The controls are crafted deliberately for a scenic and measured experience. Im genuinely struggling to understand what you're expecting from a game set in The 1800's.
Yo great vid but i have a question what do you think of soulsborne games or have you ever played one
I'm actually just playing a soulsborne game (Demon's Souls remake) for the first time. I'm planning to make a video about it, but I'm only halfway through, so hopefully, I'll finish it soon and start working on a video. I used to avoid these kinds of games, thinking people had some sort of Stockholm Syndrome with their difficulty, but it's turning out to be an interesting experience. The Tower Knight boss battle was really satisfying.
@@criticalpixels ill def watch that vid i havent played any of the souls game except for bloodborne i got it from ps plus and now i love souls games
Yeah rdr2 is for realism and immersion.
I 100% agree with the controls on RDR2, they are horrible with a controller. There are not enough buttons and there is input lag. I bought the game on console but the controls were so terrible I gave up and sold it.
Years later when it came to PC I bought it again and I really enjoyed it when playing with mouse and keyboard.
Good to know it's better on PC. I have never played a modern Rockstar game with mouse and keyboard, but I guess RDR2 will be the first if I ever decide to give it another try.
Funny thing, I had no issues at all with the controls. But they do have a certain feel that you're either on board with or not. It's how I feel about the Souls games. Never liked the controls
The controls are literally fine
I like Rockstar games and love the GTA series. Yet totally skipped on RDR2 after 3-4 hours of outdated game design full of boredom, long pointless conversations from forgettable characters and dull content. No other AAA game has bored me that much from the start.
I prefer an enjoyable game with bad production value over top notch graphics-animations-sound design with a dull gameplay
I've never been into cowboy games tbh. I played through RDR1 once and enjoyed it, but I wouldn't see myself playing it again. RDR2 never interested me although I understand why it's popular. It's definitely one of if not the best cowboy open world game out there
I spoiled the entire game and then rdr2 seems like an 8/10
South Park stuck of truth highly recommend
RDR2 is my biggest gaming disappointment.
I loved the first one
I tried my best to like this game too super slow and a lot of following characters slowly the same with witcher 3 I own it but it's not good to me the combat sucks too like a dragon I regret buying too played like 20 hrs but it sux
Ironically I didn't liked witcher 3 but liked this one, probably because the other stuff made me curious about rdr2
@@simulify8726 it takes absolutely too long to get started in Red Dead redemption 2 with all the following slow NPCs around the game I mean it should be illegal not to be able to skip that crap you have to literally follow an NPC on a super boring horse ride can't even run that takes real world like 35 40 minutes shame on Rockstar for that
Same way I feel about GTA games lol, its really boring.
To me this was Fallout
Comment
you are describing most of the games, gaming is a waste of time, why not try leveling up your real life character instead. Stop using gaming as an excuse to quit real life problems.
After you get out the snow it picks up🤣there’s a lot of mechanics so they use all of chapter 1 as a tutorial so it feels dragged out. Either way nobody loses anything just cause YOU didn’t play rdr so it’s w.e
You're the first person I've ever seen that didn't like RDR2 😂 I didn't know that was possible
gameplay is too slow, too many pressing buttons for simple tasks, too much horse riding from point a to b for the story to progress. if you like doing side activity, you'll like this game, but if you preferer straight-to-the-point story progression, you won't!
@@user-il3uo6hb9qthat's bs. Red Dead 2 has many things to love. It's not for everyone. It's an all time great for me.
I know several people online and on reddit who haven't found RDR2 engaging.
It's not really a game for everyone, the controllers are frankly clunky in my opinion
Sometimes animations stuck for a second or two to play out.
But people who want to pick up and get to the point immediately, then they won't enjoy RDR2.
Personally I loved RDR2, but I wish Rockstar fixes their mission design
@@simulify8726 The animation and control design is deliberate. To make you feel like a human instead of a sprite.
Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one and some of them stink. This game isn’t here to cater to your ADHD. If its too slow for you then that’s just a personal problem y’all need to deal with.
Ignoring the minor abelism are you literally doing the "you're just mad there aren't explosions every 15 seconds" take? The game is a slow burn and not everyone has the time to play it.
Also why use ADHD as an insult? You realize someone with it would actually be able to invest time in the game if they liked it right? But instead you use a diagnosed disorder as a cheap insult to feel better about yourself
I love RDR2 but there's no need to insult those who don't.
@@melodicsatisfactionproductionsI have ADHD and this is the perfect game for me. It's versatile.
