My Life As A Gamer: Razorfist Reviews Red Dead Redemption 2

I am not surprised to see Razorfist come out in favor of the game. Everyone that's played it has come to some similar conclusion. This is going to be a game that Rockstar will more than recover its investment in; it has legs, and I expect that with some good DLC and online addons it can remain popular well into 2019. There is room in the market for Western action games. Now it's up to developers to figure out how to do that without cloning Red Dead.

  1. Bradford,

    Good to read that gamers have a good game in light of the dumpster fires like Fallout 76 and others.

    Ideas are so plentiful that you'd have a hard time prioritising:
    1) Offbeat westeern: Yukon goold rush
    2) Spanish colonization of the southwest
    3) Louis d'Amour, Zane Gray and Max Brand novels are the most obvious stories to adapt to video games

    So no shortage of inspiration but it comes down to how much the programmers respect the source material and the gamers
