Red Dead Redemption 2 is an absolute masterclass in storytelling. The sheer amount of dialogue and character building in this game is just incredible. Everything from the graphics, combat, soundtrack, mission design and writing are top-notch and that's what makes Rockstar so special. I've never gotten so attached to a character as much as I did with Arthur Morgan, he's one of the best video game protagonists ever. There's just so much to see and do in this wonderful open world and it never gets old. Also, it is very well optimised and I never really had any issues with bugs or crashes.

The only con for me was that the pacing got a bit slow and off direction about midway through the game, but it does pick up soon after. Also, I felt that the game restricts player freedom and movement in some missions and camps which is a bit annoying. Other than these, the game is just near perfect. If the huge campaign wasn't enough, there's Red Dead Online too which has a lot of fun content to be had and is frequently updated. Red Dead Redemption 2 is worth every single penny, definitely recommended.
