    Horrible support team instantly closed my tickets with 0 help or resolution. I can't even play the game because the rockstar account is tied to an email i no longer have access to. It would be such a simple fix but the support team is too lazy to help and would rather close my issue in 2 seconds. Truly sickening and disgusting rockstar support team

    Don’t buy it on any platform that requires the Rockstar Games Launcher. Causes issues with its insistence on connecting to the internet barring paying customers from accessing their game. The game itself I couldn’t recommend more. It’s unfortunately owned and managed by a company that has no regard for the people that pay for their products.

    I had to do a 5 year prison bid for drug trafficking from 2017-2022. Due to the dates in which I was incarcerated, I wasn't able to fully sink my teeth into this absolute peak as ♥♥♥♥ masterpiece until these past couple of months. I knew it was an enormous game with a lot of high quality content I would want to consume, so I kept putting it off for other games. I had quite the backlog of absolute must play titles by the time I got released, so I forgive myself but holy moly... this puppy here is special in a way that I can't quite put into words. Out of all the amazing games I've played in my lifetime, I don't think any other game besides this one had a story that genuinely brought about such strong emotions that it basically just made me want to be a better person. Be a more present person, a more patient friend. Emotions that affected me so much that I, against my will, spent at least a week processing exactly how and why I was resonating this much with a video game story...even going so far as to write about my feelings in my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Moleskin journal when I was supposed to be working. That is powerful storytelling folks. Having done so long in prison, I've read literally thous

    "I'm afraid." is a small sentence yet after this game I really couldn't tell you how strong feelings it makes you feel after playing this game even if I wanted. Even today I still would probably struggle to admit that to myself. Accepting whatever yourself is truly one of the things that requires upmost strength. I could consider this game a masterpiece so I'll write down the small stuff bothered me first so players can be aware of. This game focuses heavily on realism and it comes with its slowness. Sometimes it might overwhelm you, especially if you are not familiar with other slow paced games same or different genre. I could suggest giving it a little patience and it really might worth it. Other stuff that will also bother will come with this and I guess it's all tolerable since they did such a fine job with realism and keeping it entertaining or enjoyable for the player. Also it could be just me but missions did get repetitive though they did a lot better than most open-world games and even if they were repetitive they still were enjoyable enough to process through. Now since I consider this game a masterpiece, I can only praise the game since I wrote down the stuff bothered

    The definition of peak game. You start RDR2 thinking, “damn, I’m gonna be a cowboy,” and 100 hours later you’re emotionally attached to a horse, questioning your morality, getting tuberculosis, committing several federal crimes, and staring at a sunset for 15 minutes because somehow Rockstar made pixels more beautiful than real life. This isn’t a game anymore. It’s an experience, a depression simulator, a cowboy life crisis, and the greatest excuse to ignore every responsibility known to mankind. Absolute cinema.
