Finally. A game who let my time flew away - meaning the game is something you need to try on your life. !

I absolut love it. !

the only bad thing about the story is the emptiness you feel as soon as it ends

I bought this game during a Steam Sale back in December 2020 for $40. The best $40 I ever spent. I took my time with the game, and didn't finish it until November 2021. I did every side mission and explored nearly every inch of the game. I'm 44, and usually only have the time or energy to play on weekends. I played for about 4 hours or so most Saturday mornings. As a casual gamer I can definitely say the game is open to all playing styles and skill levels. The story line was as good as a really good book. The ending did a great job closing out all the story lines too. The attention to detail by the developers was incredible. You never know what you're going to deal with as you turn each corner, and every time what comes up is interesting and fun. Often times I would just go off and explore the game's open world outside of any story lines. I have an EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 XC ULTRA video card. The ray tracing they added in mid 2021 was a marked improvement in the graphics, and the graphics were already awesome before the upgrade. I couldn't recommend this game enough.

** Side note -- I tried Red Dead Online a little, but didn't care for it. I didn't try it till after I had finished the main game. I found it was full of trolls. Don't waste your time with Red Dead Online.

I was having a beer in Valentine Saloon and some loud mouth drunk guy at a table was yelling about how many Indians he's killed and how everyone should thank him, what a stand up guy. I walked over and greeted him and he said "Who the hell you talking to?" then stood up and punched my hat right off of my head.
We punched the hell out of each other and were both covered in blood. My health was nearly gone but then he ragdolled and faceplanted the table and a message popped up on screen saying something like "You can no longer use the barber".

Turns out i just beat the crap out of the local barber.
The sheriff came, i surrendered and spent the night in a cell. I had to pay $4.

I went back to the saloon for another beer and a random guy walks up and talks about the fight i had the night before and how crazy it was.
This is just one of many small immersive things which have happened so far outside of the main story.

What a crazy game.

Last chapter: Red Dead Depression
In all seriousness, One of the greatest games ever made.

The game is incredible but why the ♥♥♥♥ I have to connect rockstar games servers to play single player. Steam should be ban 3rd party launchers, there is a reason peoples are using steam.
