How do you evaluate the Rockstar game "Red Dead Redemption 2"?

R Star's "Red Dead Redemption 2" has finally been released, and Big Cousin has lived up to expectations. All major media have given it a perfect score of 10, making it the best in the history of pre-ordered games. One of the games. So let's take a look at what kind of shock the big cousin brings to us this time.

The first and most intuitive thing is the graphics. "Red Dead Redemption 2" has squeezed every drop of PS4's performance, and even dropped frames, although the chance of launching a PC version is not high. , but PC can still maximize the game's picture quality, so the picture is actually impeccable.

Let’s talk about the overall feeling of the game. Unlike the gangster cynicism of the "GTA" series, "Red Dead Redemption 2" once again tells the world that once Rockstar tells a story, you will feel that he is a weathered person. A mature man, every detail of the huge open world is trying its best to present this American western world to the players vividly.

You can do anything in this world that can be done in that era. Become an ordinary hunter, or wear a scarf and carry out various robberies, or even become a good citizen who eliminates violence and keeps peace. This kind of setting can be said to be This is Rockstar’s specialty. One detail that particularly moved me was that when you hunt and catch an animal, skinning it is just like watching a documentary. The sheepskin, wool, and suet are all in front of you. You no longer have to pretend to skin the animal before skinning it. This sense of reality Only the eldest cousin did it. The combat system of the game is full of a sense of impact. This sense of impact comes from Rockstar's pursuit of excellence. Every feedback from the controller is so precise, and combined with the sound effects, the feeling is very smooth. There is another key factor - horses. An important means of transportation in that era is also a means of transportation that is about to be eliminated. Even cowboys are people who are about to be eliminated. However, horses have an intimacy system that can bind these two people who belong to the same era. Deeper.

The quality of the game has reached the highest level in the industry, the playability is very high, the picture quality, world view creation, sense of impact, and narrative rhythm are all excellent. If "GTA5" is a heartfelt popcorn The movie, "Red Dead Redemption 2" is a western epic.

A game that does not rely on inertia to induce players to consume is often even more valuable. And "Red Dead Redemption 2" has received a perfect score and a high reputation from players, which is enough to show that Rockstar's eight years of work have been worthwhile. For an investment of 800 million U.S. dollars, the revenue of 750 million U.S. dollars in the first three days of sales shows that it can ensure a steady profit without losing money. And if I were asked to give an evaluation of this game, I would say: "It is alive."

Is Rockstar leading an era? I don’t think so. Objectively speaking, it is the forefront of game development technology. Although friends who are currently experiencing "Red Dead Redemption 2" lament its details, the games interviewed in the future may have such a level, such as "Cyberpunk 2077" developed in Poland. At the 2018 E3 exhibition, "Cyberpunk 2077" revealed that its game world is alive, and every NPC has its own job. If this description makes you look forward to it, then "Red Dead Redemption 2" is The best platform for this kind of game expression, because it has already shown this content in this game.

In everyone’s impression, NPC is a dispensable design, especially when you need to perform a task, it cannot even enter the next program loop until the player reaches the point of operating the character. In "Red Dead Redemption 2", if there are no players, the world will still function normally. For example, when you see people sweeping the floor, drinking, and flirting, they are not doing it to show you, but they are really doing it at that time. Because it is no longer a background, each NPC becomes more real. When you move next to them, they will not continue to do their own things, but give you various feedback. If you approach with bare hands, they will look at you. If you come too close, they will alert you. Moreover, different people have different tempers. Some may offer good advice, while others may directly threaten you. And when you move with a gun, timid people will hide and ask you to put away your weapon, and those with a bad temper will directly draw their guns and shoot at you. Details like this are everywhere, and you will feel that you are not playing a character. outlaw, but live this role.

A camp in the game is your character’s base. You will live with your companions, avoid bounties, and plan the next step. The people in the camp are also alive, unlike the team members in the COD plot. They appear when you are short of bullets, and you can't even see their ghosts when you are doing tasks. In Red Dead Redemption 2, each of your teammates has a job, and Rockstar has said that it can still run even if there is no player-operated protagonist in the camp. Some players likened the life content of the game to the survival game "Scum", which can be said to be meticulous. In fact, your team needs to consume various resources such as food to operate in the camp. Different people have different divisions of labor, and everyone will contribute to the camp. Of course, sometimes when resources are insufficient, your teammates will ask you to go hunting. You can choose to do this or pretend not to hear it, but the emotions of the gang members will be intuitively reflected in front of you. When everything goes well, everyone will sing and dance, and the atmosphere will be lively.

When there is a lack of food and clothing, some people will complain and curse.

In this world, day and night alternate, and the weather changes, just like the real world. You need to wear less when it’s hot, and you need to find thicker clothes when it’s cold. The entire world is extremely open and has formed an ecosystem. All the scenes and creatures you can see in western documentaries are found here. In addition to allowing you to pick and hunt these animals and plants, they themselves are not "dead", waiting for you to kill them. They also need to live and be hungry, so you will see eagles catching rabbits, bears catching fish, etc. Moreover, these animals have their own food chain. For example, the eagle not only catches rabbits, but also birds and fish... In comparison, the way in which bears meet bison and fight each other in "Far Cry 5" seems a lot fake. .

It is not difficult to see from the above details that although "Red Dead Redemption 2" is an excellent game, it also requires players to adapt, especially novices in this area, who just come here because of its reputation. people. The meticulous game operation mode will test the player's patience. In a world with "life", your attitude and actions towards each character will affect your subsequent life in this world. If you don't buy some games, you may feel ashamed of your status as a veteran player, such as "Call of Duty 15". For some games, if you don’t buy them, you may open the door to a new world later, such as “Red Dead Redemption 2”.

Extreme realism and high immersion are my evaluations of "Red Dead Redemption 2". I believe that players who have played it will highly agree with this evaluation.

Rockstar's products pursue the ultimate restoration of reality. If you look at their previous works, the GTA series, you will know that they are all popular among players for their vivid depiction of life details. The same goes for Red Dead Redemption 2.

The game takes players into the American West at the beginning of the 20th century. At this time, when the police begin to crack down on the remaining outlaw gangs, the Wild West era is coming to an end. At the beginning of the game, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang encountered an unexpected accident during a robbery in Blackwater Town, and they had to escape from this western town. Federal detectives and the nation's top bounty hunters are chasing after them.

Should they plunder and struggle to survive in the vast and wild hinterland of the United States, or should they choose their own ideals and become a human being? Good guy? This is the choice players need to make in the game.

In the game, you can ride your horse around and experience the American western scenery of the last century. You can also do whatever you think is right. And most importantly, everything is extremely real. You go somewhere. , you have to endure the monotony and boredom on the way. Even if you kill a dog in the town, the residents of the town can chase you for the debt until the end of the game. Everything you do will have a certain impact on the follow-up of your game. It feels very The truth.

As for the usual elements such as gun battles, not to mention, Rockstar, which pursues realism, will not let you down in these places.

"Red Dead Redemption 2" has won multiple awards, and its sales volume is also amazing. This is the best evaluation given by players with actual actions.

This is a game suitable for retirement.

This game is currently launched on the console, and the PC version has not yet been announced. This game is highly playable, highly playable, and is an R-star masterpiece.

I haven’t finished it since it was released, so it’s not fun.

I have never played this game

First of all, when choosing a game, you should choose the type of game you like rather than play based on reviews. Talking back to games, as a 3A work that Rockstar, a maniac with details, has been honing his skills for 10 years, the evaluation is certainly not low. I won’t go into the good parts. Let’s talk about the bad parts. See if you are still interested after reading it.

1 As an open-play game, the map is extra large as standard, so the time to travel will be longer. Moreover, the advancement speed of the game will be relatively slow, and the game length alone is only 60 hours in the main storyline. If you have obsessive-compulsive disorder, the game duration can be increased to 10 duration. It is said that the game script is 200 pages long.

2 This is a matter of personal preference. Due to nationality issues. I don’t have much empathy for Westworld.

3 This game doesn’t have any cool equipment. But the detail on the gun is really nice. In other words, there are no particularly powerful weapons. Can't be sudden. (If you have a modifier enabled, just pretend I didn’t say anything)

In fact, this game of cousin is suitable for people who play at a slow pace and pay special attention to the plot. I want to say something from an anchor: some games are like soda for a moment of pleasure, games are like old wine and should be savored slowly. My cousin falls into the latter category.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is very fun. What’s not fun is that I don’t like this style of game. You can play this game forever, and you can play it for a long time. The most important thing is to just do nothing. It’s also beautiful to go in and enjoy the scenery, so I’ve always hoped that Big Cousin 2 could have a VR version, so how fun is this game?

Main storyline

Big Cousin’s main storyline The plot can be said to be ups and downs, exciting and fun. It is mainly about a gang on the run. Faced with a new world, people living in the cracks of the world can be said to be living a life of licking blood. It is under this background that I witnessed What is love and justice? In the end, although the protagonist made many players heartache, it left a profound impact on the players. Everything seemed not to be made up, everything seemed so real, and each member had his own character. And the way of doing things can be said to be very realistic.

Wonderful Easter Eggs

There are many Easter eggs in Big Cousin 2. As far as I know, more than 50 Easter eggs have been discovered, and each Easter egg has an unusual story. , it can be seen how detailed Red Dead Redemption 2 is. There are many different experiences in the process of finding each Easter egg. I also recorded a video to explain more than 20 Easter eggs. If you are interested, you can check out my Home page

How to say this question? In the entire history of games, there is no game that everyone finds fun (except gambling games), so if I can only talk about Big Cousin 2 There are some characteristics of the game, and then the subject can refer to these characteristics and match them with game-related videos, live broadcasts, etc. to consider whether this game is suitable for them.

Advantages: 1. The top-notch graphics performance of this generation (especially on Xbox One X), even cross-generation graphics performance and texture details.

2. With a rich plot and atmosphere, coupled with top-notch game graphics, this game can be said to have reached a very high artistic level in terms of narrative and expressiveness.

3. Rich game details. There are many things to do in the game and the details of each gameplay are rich enough (cooking, hunting, fishing, robbery, playing cards, rescuing, dueling, etc.).

4. The AI ??level is extremely high, and the reactions and development of NPCs are relatively natural, so there will be no drama in the game. Coupled with a large number of side stories that will feed back to the main line, in this game There will be no boring situations in the huge open world;

5. The combat performance is excellent. Thanks to the details, graphics, BGM and performance effects, the combat performance is also extremely high. level.

6. Continuously improve the online mode of gameplay. The online mode has not been fully launched yet. It is still in the testing stage, but it can be seen that R-Star is constantly improving the flesh and blood part of the game under an excellent framework. There is already a prototype of a complete and excellent online game.

Disadvantages: 1. Too cumbersome UI and operation mode. In order to compromise with authenticity, Rockstar has abandoned many simple operation methods and operation feedback. In addition, existing technology cannot make the game actionable. It fully reaches the level of reality, resulting in many repeated operations that are too cumbersome and lengthy (picking up props, picking up dropped objects, riding horses to accelerate, etc.).

2. The combat process in stand-alone mode is too short and scattered. Due to the slow pace of the open world itself, the battles in the main line of the game are relatively single and short, which may not be suitable for players who want to continue to experience western gun battles. You will feel a little bit dissatisfied and not playing enough.

3. Complex system. This is actually the same as the first lack of land. It is caused by over-compromising to authenticity but being unable to completely restore the reality. For example, you can only carry a very small amount of prey at a time, making a backpack is extremely troublesome, and if you want to maintain weight, you must eat very frequently, which affects the normal game rhythm, etc.

Neutral (the part where the advantages and disadvantages are reversed for different players):

1. Slow pace: the flexibility of the open world, the big cousin because of the large map, The game has many details and the pace will be slower. Players who like a slow pace can slowly appreciate the world, while players who like a fast pace will find it boring.

2. Excessive pursuit of authenticity: On the one hand, it brings a very high level of performance, artistry and sense of immersion, on the other hand, it affects the operability and fluency of the game.

3. Combat mode: The performance is excellent. Players will feel excited during the battle, but it is not fun. The operation and combat mode are both satisfactory, so players who have higher requirements for gameplay It will be more difficult to accept.

Let’s think of these for now. There must be many aspects that I haven’t mentioned, and you may have objections to some aspects. Big Cousin 2 itself has definitely achieved the design goals at the game design level, that is, the pursuit of authenticity, sense of substitution, and expressiveness (it is not even an exaggeration to say that Big Cousin has achieved the best in game history in these aspects). Therefore, Big Cousin 2 is destined to be a landmark work in the history of games. It brings cinematic narrative, open world, game graphics, sense of substitution and other aspects to a new level.

But I still have a consistent view that this is not a game suitable for everyone. If you like this type of game, then this game is most likely suitable for you. If you don’t like open worlds and cinematic narratives, Then cousin, it will be difficult for you to continue playing. For me personally, it's quite fun to play, and that's enough. So after you have played this game, you will naturally know whether the game is fun for you.
