I think there was more than enough mission variety during the story. If it was repetitive it was fun so it didn't feel that way to me. The gameplay didn't feel repetitive until I had to grind to max level online.
And I think the western setting was very refreshing and with that I really enjoyed the story. Great script writing and voice acting all around. John Marston was a likable anti-hero. Westerns are also one of my favorite movie genres too so I may be a little more biased in favor of the story there.
And I disagree about the outdated gameplay. I thought the GTA engine still holds up very well and for Red Dead Redemption it was a lot more stable than GTA 4. One of my favorite gameplay moments was the first time I got mauled by a cougar and he knocked me off a cliff. lol
