Red Dead Redemption II Trailer #2 released!

Rygar 8 Bit

Jaguar 64-bit
Graphics were decent, but not quite the leap I was expecting.

On a side note I just noticed on the website it says PS4/Xbox with no mention of PC. Has there been no mention whatsoever regarding bringing this to the PC?

I would have though Rockstar would be bringing all titles to PC at this point. I would also assume there would be some sort of GTA Online added to this with the success they have seen from GTAV.

they want you to buy it first one console then the superior version later on because they know we will its bullshit but it works
 
What a pointless trailer. And you guys hype this shit?

No gameplay and they showcased nothing we didn’t already know.
How are people coming to the conclusion that the trailer didn't reveal anything new or previously unknown?
Besides the protagonist, his name and role, some of the supporting characters, the tone and some plot points, and new gameplay mechanics like bows and dual wielding
 
Everything about this trailer seems like the bare minimum effort. Like they were contractually obligated to put this together.

I'm no really sure what purpose it serves. I know literally no more about the game than I did yesterday and it doesn't really get me excited.
If you don't care to know anymore then yeah, this is true.

We now see train robberies, bank robberies, we know our protagonist. We know some supporting characters. We know how it directly ties in to the original game. We know there are bows and arrows. We know locales. We see dual wielding. It's a teaser for a game at least 7 months away.

That's factually incorrect.

If I ever post something in Japanese which I don't understand, please BAN me.
Damn you, everytime I read you it reminds me of Spider-Man on PS4 coming up and how far it must be. As if RDR2 wasn't enough of a wait. :(



Do we know for sure he's the only protagonist?

Hopefully we get some new Spidey footage at PSX this year.

Trailer looked real good. Is there any hope for single DLC story expansions or is that just a pipe dream at this point due to the success of GTA Online?

You know the name of the character. You know this is about Dutch and his gang and you see way more regarding the world than you did in the first trailer.

It wasn't a story trailer. It was more like another teaser that revealed a bit more.

Maybe I'm spoiled but I feel like the facial animation needs some extra work. Other than that I loved it, it's going to be a beautiful open world. :)

Guys, I really want to replay RDR, whats the chances of a remaster between now and the launch of RDR2?

Zero unless they went back and fixed all the code. It's a miracle RDR actually exists, not because of the bugs, but the horrible botched development it had.

Your best bet would be to play it on an Xbox One, it's compatible there
 
I sort of refused on principle because the PS3 version wasn't very good. :/



Should be called Red Dead Redemption 0 then.

Is it really that bad?

I was thinking of grabbing it. I've already played it through on 360 but someone scratched my disc when I lent it to them.

It's definitely worse than the version you played. Looks washed up and has more aliasing, plus I'm pretty sure it runs worse, as in more frame drops.

Either A) John is in this game and they fucked that trailer up by not letting him be the one to reveal it's prequel nature

or

B) John isn't in the game and they fucked up by doing a prequel without him.

Still incredibly hyped for the game though. LOVED the first one. Best GTA game IMO.

A. It is known that Rockstar is not showing gameplay footage that far from release. No suprise.

B. There was plenty of relevant new information in this Trailer including the reveal of the main character which was unknown before.
If you don't see that you are not really interested in the game afterall I guess.

whoever's saying "you're a wanted man, Mr. Morgan" sounds an awful lot like Edgar Ross

Or maybe John isn't in it at all until near the end.
 
Which one was it?

The train scene in the dark reminded of that. But its been too long since i have seen it.
Guys in the trees and Arthur overlooking the train are very reminiscent of The Assassination of Jesse James. If you're going to borrow cinematography from someone, Roger Deakins is a great choice.

The first game had loads of stolen/inspired by scenes. I have no problem with it, think it worked brilliantly.

So if Dutch is alive in this one... is a "prequel" so John Marston is going to be in this game BOYS! Sign me up.

Edit:

The old gang is:

Dutch van der Linde - Leader
Bill Williamson
Javier Escuella
John Marston
Abigail Marston
Arthur Morgan Protagonist in RDR 2.

Would have preferred to play as someone who doesn't seem like a straight up asshole. Marston was a good balance of good guy guilt tripped by past deeds. I guess I'll have to hope that he's at least likeable.
