blackguy32 posted:Red Dead Redemption does that really cool thing where they talk about people throughout the whole game but they never show you who they are. It kind of reminded me of Apocalypse Now in that they talk about your family for the whole game, but you don't even glimpse them until near the end of the game. There was a movie (i guess) that was directed by John Hillcoat. It was basically the entire first act up until Marsden crosses into mexico. Its fairly slick too. e. its been explained already but w/e Blue Raider fucked around with this message at 06:23 on Oct 20, 2016 |

Hobo Clown posted:How much does RDR say about Marston's old gang? It's been a while since I've played it. I remember chasing down the leader in the mountains in the third act, and it seemed like he was "the last one" or whatever, but can't remember any other details about who the others were or where they might be. (Are we using tags for RDR?)

I hope you can shove people in 2. Shoving everyone and watching them tumble was the best thing about 1.

Sony announced a "partnership" with Rockstar, "PS4 players get first access to earn select online content in the vast open world of Red Dead Redemption 2." Also, the PS3 version of RDR is going to be on PlayStation Now, so I guess you'll finally be able to play RDR on PC even if it is through streaming.

The 360 version looks and runs way better, so if you have that you may as well stick with it. edit: here's Digital Foundry's comparison video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOq25Zo8pes I love how Undead Nightmare is actually so broken now that even this tech comparison video has the game-breaking glitch (zombies turning into headless NPCs who shoot at you) showing up.

Yeah, for the record, RDR is one of those games that is unquestionably better on 360. The only reason to play it on PS3 is if you don't have a 360, or if you're like me, because your 360's disc drive doesn't work and the GOTY edition never got a digital release.

Unctuous Cretin posted:But Red Dead Redemption was Red Dead Revolver's sequel, so Red Dead Revolver: Red Dead Redemption 2.  Trailer looks good but pretty much how I imagine RDR would have looked on a current gpu if they had just been able to do a PC port. I'm pretty confident RDR2 will get a pc port eventually, but god drat GTAV took almost 2 years so gently caress waiting for that. I guess I'll rebuy it in 2020 and it'll look amazing on my GTX 1470.

Looks about as good as expected. RDR has incredible animal behavior compared to GTAV, so here's hoping they go back in that direction (I assume the animals in GTAV were like on the furthest burner back, with everything else going on in the game). Canoes! Hopefully water is not instant death this time around.

Warren ellis doing the ambient/procedural audio that happens in the world and woody jackson for the story missions! GTA5 had 3 soundtracks, dont see why they wouldnt do something similar here and have more than one. I think ellis is best suited to doing a 65daysofstatic/ no mans sky kind of dynamic audio.

Marogareh posted:I hope you can shove people in 2. Shoving everyone and watching them tumble was the best thing about 1. RDR definitely had the right sense of weight to it. That drunk stumbling out of the saloon on your first trip to town is a notable example. On the other end of that, they absolutely nailed the almost wirework way people get blown away in Spaghetti westerns.

Does Nick Cave do western themed music these days since he's a thread favorite? Any links to some good songs if so?

When I was first playing the game everyone was talking about the atmospheric and amazing moment when you get to Mexico and it plays a beautiful song as you ride around as a stranger in a strange land. I called my horse, rode around, and nothing. Tying the trigger to that loving horse on the beach, while maybe the only thing they could have workarounded, was loving duuuuummmmmm. Still, best horse riding in any game ever. Witcher 3 had a chance to dethrone it buuuut... NOPE.

Dark_Swordmaster posted:Tying the trigger to that loving horse on the beach, while maybe the only thing they could have workarounded, was loving duuuuummmmmm. Seconded on both counts. After RDR and Shadow of the Colossus, Witcher 3 might be in third-place though. It has a surprisingly robust mounted combat system, even.

loving Roach would NOT stay on the trail. And would get hung up on tiny objects. And not turn. Or turn when I didn't want to. It was a MISERABLE experience. RDR Horse would control perfectly.

 People are saying the person in yellow is a girl, if that's the case I'm hoping we can create our own posse of 7, girls included. I'm curious to see what they do with the character switching mechanic this time though, if it's even included. I don't know about you guys but I felt like it was pretty drat cool in V and had gently caress tons of potential.

I said this a whole bunch in the last thread. But if RDR2 gets you to replay the original: turn off the hud. You actually observe the amazing world instead of staring at your minimap. Vincent posted:Dude wrote a pretty great western if nothing else. (The Proposition) Great film. Great sound track. It's like a little mini Blood Meridian set in the outback.

Doc Morbid posted:I did this for a while at the start of my Hardcore mode playthrough. Having to actually look at your surroundings is quite a nice change, but I ran into some trouble due to the fact you can't keep track of your Dead Eye (which you kinda need in Hardcore mode) in any way if your HUD is turned off. As a compromise, I ended up just not using waypoints. You can tell by the tone of the WHOOSH while in dead eye. If it's higher you have less. It's just hard mode
