| themanwithnoname said: I liked the story in Red Dead Redemption, barring the entire middle of the game, which was nothing but pointless filler. Sadly, that leads me into having the opinion that it's merely a good game that had the potential to be much better if the pacing was consistent. |
Did you play GTA IV? RDR was so much better in every way. I just can't believe that Liberty city turned out to be such a ghost town and that desert in which Red Dead Redemption took place was so full of life!
And even though the critics loved RDR it is still Below GTA IV. Makes no sense to me.
About the Story in RDR... similar to San Andreas, the main character is forced to do a lot of things he doesn't want to but he's a victim of extorsion. However, in San Andreas CJ escapes to another part of the city and then comes back to have is final revenge if I remember correctly. The blackmail is important only during a part of the game, which is very long by the way, but so much fun anyway. In RDR that situation lasts the whole game... I don't know. And still, the game reminds me a bit to Clint Eastwood's "The Unforgiven", not the story but the main character who has a past and also a family he wants to come back to... But that movie really Rocks and makes RDR story look really bad
