Better story IMO
GTA has always been more comedic while RD has a more serious tone with plenty of humorous moments aswell
Theres no open world game that can match RDR2 detail
You can literally watch an npc eat a steak bite for bite.
depends on what youre looking for though.
Ill admit you can cause way more mayhem in GTA
Ironically though i got a lot more mileage out of GTAV because the online mode can be played as a SP extension and actually has missions to do unlike RDRO.
GTAV is cheap regularly and has even been free, so get both.

Yes, but in GTA you can set a solo session and all the new heists can be done alone, and in a solo session, you do not need to interact with griefers and cheaters anymore. RDRO makes that nearly impossible and there are no missions to do anyways.
Where I think RDR2 has GTA V beat is its story. It just blows it out of the water, and I actually liked Franklin quite a bit. Michael and Trevor I could take or leave. Arthur is just one of the most nuanced protagonists in gaming, and that's always going to be more enjoyable to me.
So if you're going for immersion and nothing else, RDR2 wins by far. The side content is so much more enjoyable and you really feel like exploration and going off the beaten path is rewarded. Hell, a lot of people spend dozens of hours in chapter 2 alone.
However, there is a lot more to do in GTA V. Anybody that says there isn't is fanboying a little too hard. In a truly immersive experience you're naturally going to run up against restrictions. It's the trade off that's required to create that unrivaled immersive atmosphere.
I personally don't notice it when playing, but yeah in GTA the sky is the limit. There's a reason content creators still make GTA single player content almost a decade after it came out.
The other difference is online. GTAO is better than RDO and it's such a shame too because it doesn't have to be that way. The infrastructure was there for it to overtake GTAO, but Rockstar took the lazy route and thought that gold bars would sell themselves like shark cards do in GTAO. Now they're punishing us for their terrible management of the online component by providing no new content and refusing to let us know if there will be any in the future.
Both games do have issues with modders on PC, but they're rather easy to avoid in GTAO. Solo public lobbies aren't really a thing for RDO, which makes it a bust. However, you could argue that the nature of having to need solo public lobbies at all kind of lessens the online experience regardless, and I agree with that take.
Rockstar should not have continued their horrid P2P servers in RDO after we complained about them in GTAO.
Buying either for the Online play though is a waste of your time.
It's a huge reason we haven't gotten GTA 6, and that has *reportedly* only just began early stages of development. We might not even see it until the end of the decade.
Compare that to back in 2016 when we were saying GTA O is dead and wait for GTA 6 in 2022-2023 lmao.
I get that a lot of people think GTA O is bad, but I don't really understand ignoring reality when it explains so much of why Rockstar and Take-Two move the way they do in regards to player complaints, new projects, and what they choose to support.
I always like your opinion BM.
So what in your opinion comes next?
But still good buys when on-sale for a great story.
Why is there no GTA 6?
Why does Rockstar barely release games anymore?
How come they don't release storymode DLC anymore?
Why is RDO not being supported?
All of these questions and more can be answered by googling how much they make from GTA O. It's still one of the most streamed games as well thanks to GTA RP, which also translates into sales and more people trying online.
It's a monster that's consuming everything and the fact that it's about to have its tenth birthday just makes that even more absurd.
RDO is not dead just that additional content has sorely been lacking and people who played RDO early on got bored with it.
But to start fresh today in GTAO or RDO; somehow I just can't see the fun in doing so.
Neither of them will die soon in the streaming realm though cause they will continue to strive through RP servers via the FiveM/RedM systems.
Didn't they also lose their long time creative director? That would set things back as well. Hopefully the stories continue to be great, whether talking GTA or RDD. Fingers crossed.
