When it was revealed that Red Dead Redemption 2 would be entirely playable in first-person it came as no surprise. GTAV made it possible when it made its way over to the latest generation of consoles so seeing that Rockstar’s next big open world game would be available in first-person made sense. While GTAV’s first-person wasn’t the best, even at times feeling like actions were happening for third-person while in first-person, it still created a sense of grounding that can always be appreciated in video games. If not thinking about playing Red Dead Redemption 2 in first-person; here’s a challenge — just give it a shot.
It’s no secret that Red Dead Redemption 2 will be Rockstar’s most ambitious open-world game yet, with a map that is as massive as it is rich with characters, places and things to do. RDR2 is promising a living world and from the previews of said game it looks like RDR2 is going to deliver just that. Immersing ones’ self in the boots of Arthur Morgan (protagonist) would be a missed opportunity for feeling that immersion on an entirely different level. Things look a lot different when their happening through our eyes. While third person offers certain game vantages it can take away from the feeling of actually being whatever character.
Cowboys, the Legends and Killers DLC pack is coming! If you’ve been enjoying tying people to train tracks and popping off during the standoffs in Red Dead Redemption for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the additional content to that game-play experience is on its way. Fans of the original title Red Dead Revolver (for Xbox and PlayStation 2) will be pleased to know that 8 Red Dead Revolver characters are making their return to the Red Dead universe, along with 9 new multi-player m
Playing in first-person means experiencing the world as it is happening because it’s happening with only what can be seen wherever one may be looking. It’s easy to imagine the multiple scenarios that might be brought to life even more just from playing RDR2 in first-person. Horseback shootouts can have more feeling. Bar brawls will feel that true punch. Being chased down by whatever local law enforcement comprised of sheriff and deputy could feel palpably tense. While Rockstar has yet to show how first-person will function, hopefully they’ve taken some lessons out of their own book with GTAV. First-person has come a ways in games with titles such as Dishonored, Prey, Call of Duty and the like. While first-person might not be the main focus, Rockstar has an opportunity to appease players that will want to see through the eyes of Arthur Morgan.
Fans of _Red Dead Redemption 2 _ have been speculating for a while now about when they will finally receive a next-gen remaster and be able to play their beloved western RPG in 60 FPS. Now, an unexpected update from Rockstar Games to the RDR2 Steam page has players wondering if a remaster is actually right around the cor
Since it was developed by Rockstar, there were definite similarities between Grand Theft Auto gameplay-wise. Red Dead Redemption wasn’t just Grand Theft Auto in the old west, though; there was something more to the game. Sure, you could talk to your companion while you traversed the open landscape, but Red Dead Redemption had deeper gameplay mechanics than its modern counterpart. While the game was overall a standard third person action shooter, there were parts the completely stood out. It’s a simple feature, but exploring every nook and cranny by way of horse was a unique and fresh way to find various locations. And since the game’s release, riding horses to explore is becoming a more popular trend. The duels were another prominent feature. Utilizing the gunslinger mechanic which slowed down gameplay, duels offered a gruesomely unique experience.
While the Rockstar Steam update isn’t an official confirmation of the RDR2 remaster’s release date, it’s a strong signal that something exciting is just around the corner. The Steam page has not been updated since 2019, and Rockstar doesn’t typically adjust descriptions on Steam for no reason or out of the b
Whether wanting to play in third-person as RDR2 is presented or taking the plunge and playing entirely in first-person, Red Dead Redemption 2 is sure to be fun. It just might be more fun playing entirely through the eyes of Arthur. Obviously, one is not better than the other, but having the opportunity to experience the West with ones’ own eyes on the ground level of it all, with the amount of detail Rockstar has put in is sure to be a wildly different experience. Red Dead Redemption 2 comes out October 27 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
