Red Dead Redemption finally coming to PC!

From the horse's mouth (no pun intended): https://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/o3314a19koo147/red-dead-redemption-and-undead-nightmare-coming-to-pc-october-29 I must be dreaming! Somebody pinch me! It's about damn time.

I'll wait until people have played it and can tell me if they changed anything.

[L1qu1dator]

Who cares. ♥♥♥♥ Rockstar.

[Iggy Wolf]

I don't think anything will be changed. It's a straight port. And honestly, after the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ job that GSG did on the GTA "remaster", I'm not sure I'd want Rockstar trying to "remaster" the game. In fact, Double Eleven did this port, not GSG thankfully this time. The game will include Undead Nightmare too, so that's good.

The only concern is whether multiplayer will be supported. RDR1 was already spaghetti code on consoles to begin with. It's amazing they even managed to port it at all, but not surprising, since it did recently come to PS4. Now, whether it'll COST the price of a port and not the $60 they were charging for the PS4 port is a different story.

At least the online has solo lobbies. And auto sprint, unlike RDR2 that is a walk sim clunkfest, and filled with griefers.

It'll probably cost as much as the PS4/switch ports ($50 usd iirc) and have no multiplayer.

Edit, yeah: store page says singleplayer only.

Well I guess I'll see that after people have their hands on it.

How much GB?

[Goldias]

Along with rockstar atrocious launcher?

Skip.

[Mr. White]

Not a fan myself it was so only western for me I guess, but I hope everyone has fun.
Will hope for all of you that the port goes smoothly, which is almost never the case. xD

[eram]

yeah single player game that needs 2 launchers. lol no

[A Shy Player]

I cant wait for the day where gaming platforms take on the "XR" approach and we no longer get subjugated to these spyware platforms like Steam or their useless prisons they call "launchers".

What's that? You bought Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 5 on Microsofts XBOX ISO3 and you just bought the new Playstation X ? Simply login to your rockstar account and continue your playthrough without needing to purchase another copy of the same game.

The sad reality is that we are going to have subscription-based gaming shoved down our throats instead and the weak-willed sheep will take the scraps & be happy about it.

I ain't buying slop.

I can't wait for the controversy when modders figure out how to get past its protections and start pushing out Skyrim-like mods for it...

I was hyped when the game was first announced. I was going to make a huge mod that put in classic "Western" gunfighter characters and quests, etc, to engage the player with interacting with them. It was gonna be fun! So, I started planning it out, collecting some assets, getting some good references for the modeling I'd need to do, etc.

Then they announced it wasn't going out to PC and, even so, there wouldn't be any modding allowed.

"No modding? In a "Wild West" sort of game? But, I got all this stuff I'm gonna do! I gots plans! ITS GOIN TO BE KOOL!"


Eh, the heck with 'em. They milked it, tried the online thing with marketplace and crap and... my dream is dead, now.

I would only ever buy that game if I could mod it. If I can't, it'll never see my PC. I can't play that and be reminded for hours about what "would have been."

PS:Edit - OK, I see that this is the first one, not RDR2, like I was thinking. I dunno, now, but I'll have to take a look at it to see if what I would want to do is still possible.

You need an RTX 2070 for recommended settings

[Electric Cupcake]

Let me guess, you still have to sign up for a separate account and use their separate launcher, and they'll still ♥♥♥♥ you over for modding it even when it's just single player.
