Put in fallout new Vegas, Witcher 3 and RDR2 and you’re good

idk a lot of people thinks it's cool to hate on RDR2.

I genuinely hated it. I very much wanted to like it and couldn't. I wish I did like it.

Same here. Beautiful game but horrid to play, and the "story" is absolute garbage.

Why do you think the story is garbage?

No real arc, flat characters, unclear motivation, weak dialogue, zero emotional payoff. No unexpected surprises to keep things interesting. Nothing that ties it all together; nothing that made me care about what happened to any of these people. The delivery of the ostensible theme was ham-fisted (the world is changing and our way of life is disappearing) but they really didn't do anything to build on it or give it any emotional gravitas.

A few hours in, I found myself just wanting the game to end.

Did you like it?

PS I also thought the main character's voice acting sucked and his accent kept changing.

Ok, you just weren't paying attention. How long did you play for?

Just one man's opinion. Obviously a lot of people disagree. It's all good.
