Red Dead 2 is way better at the beginning
I don't know if it's just me, but I've never seen anybody talking about chapter 1 and 2 being this good in the same way I see. Not talking only about the fun missions, setting and characters being introduced. But how the game presents the gameplay and itself. The mechanics, everything. It's awesome how every mission by the beginning has these scripted moments to show the new mechanics. The melee fighting, the shootouts, the acting in the cutscenes... Unfortunately I have the feeling that the game naturally loses this vibe as the story goes on. Almost like it gets more and more "arcade" like GTA V's missions. Just a ton of enemies and nothing new in combat or gameplay.
