Lifes so good right now
Ahhh man, i cant wait to get off work and play some RDR2! iv been kinda burnt out in games then i decided to hop on rdr2 after owning it for a few months but not playing much.
The place i left off was right before you hunt the deer at the very start of the game. I got on and as soon as i really started to care about what everyone was saying, that's when it clicked. "Oh this is really relaxing, listening to them talk while just chillen on a horse, taking it slow" i was really immersed in the game for the first time.
I'm more of a competitive gamer so FPS games are my go too. I tried to get into BG3, Cyberpunk, deathstranding and some others but i couldn't really get "immersed" in the world.
But as of a few days ago im really enjoying RDR2, like way more then i ever thought. Iv played the online mode, i liked it but got burntout quick because it's so grindy. Same with gta 5.
Then i got out of the prologue and man, the vast amount of people you can encounter and their "stories" are so amazing. I met the photographer that was trying to capture a picture of wildlife, went through his small event and was pleasantly surprised, not because i got a cool piece of gear or lore but simply because i was interested in his story.
I think thats the draw to the game i did not get before.
They are the story.
