Overrated is something that is misused all the time because people retrospectively judge games. If you're going to say a game is overrated, you have to do so at the time it released or compare it to the games it was going up against when it DID release.

This is very very true....people who play RDR like 6 years later and then complain have no credibility. The game’s open world was mind blowing back then. These days it’s one game among many which feature a similar open world.

I played Red Dead Redemption in 2011, started playing about a year after the game's release, and I never found it to be in any way special. It's good no question, but the massive amount of praise it received back then just made no sense to me. It's a solid 8/10, a game I enjoyed playing while it lasted, but will most likely never go back to play again.
