holy shit, i know the r* formula is like this but it's so stupid, every mission is the same 3 or 4 events. strangers are great but when it's the same shitty missions i feel like i'm punished for interacting.
i guess i need something more challenging in my games, the story and environments have to be REALLY good for me to withstand shitty gameplay

They put the ending on a pedestal as though they've never played a good videogame before
@coolboymew @dielan @why I dunno man, Red Dead II is my favourite game of all time.
@djsumdog @coolboymew @dielan @why yeah bully and gta aren't that great but red dead is pretty fucking good. Iirc they've made some other pretty good games before they got super popular too
@beardalaxy @coolboymew @dielan Also not sure if @why is talking about RD1 or 2 (I haven’t played 1). GTA3 was super unique for its time; not just because of all the Doom style content controversy, but the size/scale of the open world was a pretty big jump.
I never played GTA4, but I heard the amount of in-game content it had was kinda insane. I enjoyed GTA V. It was fun, and well constructed (and had recording breaking sales) but nothing that would put it in my top 10 list.
I will admit RD2 started off slow. By the first town, I was wondering if it was worth it, but I’m glad I stuck it out. The story progressed in really interesting ways. I liked the characters, the camp, and a lot of the side quests felt like they did world building instead of just being filler. I really felt for my character’s plight by the end. My 2nd favourite game of all time is FF7 (original), so I’m bias towards story in general.
