Red Dead Redemption 2 Trailer

It's also exciting that with PlayStation having the partnership that we should see or hear more by or at PSX too!
 
Found the trailer disappointing, especially in comparison to the Switch trailer we got earlier (though that could be my Nintendo bias showing). Still excited nonetheless, I mean it's Rockstar I have no doubt they will deliver.

And just like that I'm hyped. I'm never hyped for R* games beforehand for some reason but one trailer is all it takes.

The environments looked really amazing and dense. Can't wait to see some gameplay showing what there is to do in this world. I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't mention a PC release. Hopefully it's not long after the console release.
 
You know Rockstar doesn't really bs when it comes to visuals. This was all in-game. RDR2 now the kind of visuals and impressive games. Not surprised considering GTA V was probably my first pick before seeing this trailer.

Yeah this is exactly what I was expecting. Now the wait till E3 when the next trailer shows up during the Sony show.

Game looks great though.

Rockstar doesn't come to E3. The next time and the last time you see footage for this game, it will be on R*'s website or their official Youtube channel.

Usually true, but Rockstar showed off the GTA V remaster with Sony at their E3 show

This reminded me a lot of the the first reveal trailer for Grand Theft Auto V. Looks wonderful. I think people were getting hyped for a story trailer when this was just going to be a Rockstar first reveal.

Don't quite get the Skyrim part, but other wise yes, for sure.

Yeah - definitely less of a spaghetti western tone.

I was actually speaking more in terms of aesthetic than the tone of the story though. The first game was mostly deserts and canyons given the Texas/Mecico setting. This on the other hand looks decidedly more centralized... Plains, mountains, woods with coniferous trees... That's mainly what I meant by the Skyrim bit (in certain shots) - and Deadwood as well, which took place in a more mountainous region than your typical western.

God damn this was a short teaser. Looks pretty good in the teaser, not sure about retail version. Day 1, you already know.
 
Bummed how short the trailer is. Looks great, especially that night shot with the stars.

Also it's tough to gauge a lot about the setting. You don't see any open water, lakes, or oceans at least. interesed in some shot by shot breakdowns in high res. Only thing I'd guess is that it suggests an earlier time period than RDR, maybe by a couple decades. You don't see any of the encroaching technology that RDR dropped into its trailers, and the coal-fired steam engine looks older, but I don't know much about that.

Any bets it will have a first person camera mode? I hope so.

Really hope so. GTAV in first person was awesome.

Gave me a Wyoming/Unforgiven vibe for sure
 
Would it kill Rockstar to be a little more transparent? Is it coming to PC or not? What do you lose? Maybe 10K sales from those that would wait compared to the millions that would buy it for their PC anyway...

they really don't have to be. people will buy it on console, then 6 months later they will buy it again on PC

I can't wait for the Scorpio version of this!
And then I'll double dip when it's released on PC eventually!

They know who they are and they know their reputation. As you said, if it doesn't matter one way or the other, just say so. Yes or no, Rockstar. Either way, they'll get my double dip lmao *shrugs*

They said coming to PS4 and XboxOne. I've never seen any announcement where they said coming to PS4 and XboxOne, not PC. So I think it's pretty safe to assume a PC version won't be launched with the console versions.

I actually think less people would double dip in that case.
