RIPPA Posted October 26, 2018 Author Share Posted October 26, 2018 I was shocked how quickly it installed. It would have been even quicker if I hadn’t fallen asleep before I had to swap discs Still need to install the preorder bonuses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 My game started right up when I turned on my console. No updates or loading to be done. sadly, I immediately turned it off, less I get sucked into playing and not going to bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Angel Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I have no self control. I swore I was gonna wait a month to get this but then I saw a clip of someone getting their head blown off at close range...and now my wallet is $60 lighter. Damn you Rockstar. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Apologies if this was covered elsewhere, but I found an article on The Guardian about the absurd level of detail they put into RDR2. How absurd? Spoiler (I)f you are riding a male horse, its testicles shrink in the cold. "Gentlemen, your homework for the weekend is..." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurningBeard Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 One lofty challenge I've set myself is to keep the same horse through the whole game so I'll keep an eye on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert C Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 When I have to do a lot of debug, I'll sometimes see circuit waveforms in my sleep. Glad I don't have to debug horse balls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 26, 2018 Author Share Posted October 26, 2018 Me and the guys in line with me last night were joking about the poor saps who bought the RDR2 PS4 Bundles. Little do they know how many system updates they were gonna have to run before even getting to install the game... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimbra Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I'm pleasantly surprised by how well this runs on a standard PS4. It doesn't even sound like a Harrier taking off when you start it up. I only got to play about 45 minutes last night and it definitely feels like more Red Dead, which is exactly what I wanted. My only problem so far is that I haven't played the original in so long that I have no idea which of these characters I'm supposed to recognize outside of John.

Death From Above Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Watching the first couple hours or so of this last night on twitch, it felt unlike any other Rockstar game of the past. I mean that in a good way. Like, I'm someone that 100% thinks a fair criticism of Rockstar is post GTA-3 they've done relatively little actual creative work and just made a few billion on "reskinning the mayhem factory". This game... is not that, certainly at the start. Looked special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert C Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I played enough to get through the first gunfight and one or two other things. In some ways this feels closer to something like Witcher 3 than GTA. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Man Known as Dan Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 I'm into the second area. This game is really good and really fun. And it is very much fun in a very un-rockstar way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Everything feels weighty and deliberate and holy crap am I loving it. Got to Chapter 2 and dicked around town for a bit, but I had to quit lest I just keep playing all day. Got places to be later and boy, do I wish I could cancel those plans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirSmUgly Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 These more modern Rockstar games always start very slow. This one, because of all the systems layered on top of one another, starts slower than most and is about as slow as the first RD Redemption game. Spoiler So I made my own fast start by trying to clap a bear that Charles wanted to sneak around. In truth, I accidentally shot at him with my shotgun while pulling it out, but same thing. Charles was freaking the fuck out and being useless while I put pellets in that bear's head. Felt great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
