They werent much of a problem until you had to kill 2 with a knife. Whoever thought up that idea, there is a special place reserved in hell for him.

It was the wild west? Small towns and small populations... and cougars! It could have used some more sidequests though.

Whelp, this made my day! My old man never had use for video games while I was growing up, but he came to visit a few years ago when RDR came out. So one morning I fire it up and in he comes to say something "blah blah video games blah blah waste of time" but stopped dead when he saw the sunrise in Mexico. Needless to say I ended up playing all day with my dad as co-pilot, and when he left he bought a console & RDR. For me, that makes it one of the GOAT. Bring on the sequel!

1880s.
Indian/half-Indianhero.
Keep the variety of western/midwestern USA locations (snowy mountain pines, scrubgrass,plains,swamps) but make them just a bit bigger to make the transitions between biomes less obvious.
Let me rob a train.
Tons of distractions.
Better loot.
Buy a house.
Prostitutes.
I want a Bully sequel too, but there are a ton more opportunities with the RDR universe.

Rockstar's next new ip should be a samurai game anyways. The Yojimbo to RDR's Fistful of Dollars
How?
How?

Because the American frontier (or Russia or Mexico or South America) was a long time period full of any kind of story you want to tell.
Bully is about a school and a kid. You're more limited.
Shouldn't this be RDR3?
Or we pretending this did not happen?
No, Redemption was it's own beast. It's not a true sequel. They improved on the game and will be likely using the Redemption tag from now on. Kind of like Soul Edge/Calibur. No one asks for Soul Edge IV. haha

I must be missing something... how is that RDR3 exactly?
I loved that game. Jack Swift was the nuts.
Lol. I sat here for at least 30 seconds watching this b
I was talking about the new game. Changed it to make it clear.

Red Dead Redemption 2, Bully 2, Agent... R* <3
Its safe to say this is one of the greatest things I have ever seen.
RDR 2 = greatness, as long as the story n on par with the quality shown on 1.
boo this man.
Kind of like Soul Edge/Calibur. No one asks for Soul Edge IV. haha
I do. Soul Edge was so much better than Calibur.
Oh please it wasn't that hard. Whoever drew the first picture for the treasure hunt however....
So where is this from? I ask because my friend wants to know.

Bully 2 can wait. RDR is probably my favorite game of the generation (maybe GTA5 can knock it down) and a new game needs to happen soon.
I would be more than fine with this.

I wonder if R* will include multiple character switching like GTAV. I guess the story could be similar to The Magnificent Seven.

Red Dead Reynolds.
Watch the show and it will make sense. Plus, y'know, it's brilliant and all that.
"RDR 2 will take place in a 1920's city, where you will be able to boost cars."
Where is this from?

This is one of my most looked forward to games of next gen. RDR looked amazing on 360 (and still does), so I can't even imagine what they are going to be able to pull off with new consoles. Really hope they go farther back in time though, as the West was already dying in RDR. Wonder who the new protagonist will be? Marston will be hard to beat, especially since I really loved the voice actor that voiced him.
Not an official reason, but several Devs that worked on the project have come out and said that the code was a mess.
It was duck taped together and rushed out the door for the console release, that going back for a PC version would take a complete rewrite.
They decided that the massive amount of time and resources spent on the process would not be worth it.

I thought RDR graphics are some of the best this generation
RDR2 will look amazing, hope we dont have to wait too long, hopefully it is what comes after GTA5 next year at some point

Gotta disagree with him on that one.
I sincerely hope the "goal" of the industry is NOT to create franchises. At least, I want to believe it isn't...
Franchises are not good for gamers, they are good for stock owners and to be able to predict and to make money off tired, worn down series. Not all games need to become annualised franchises, heck, some games are great as stand alone experienced. Let creative people create new IPs, please, don't beat a dead horse like they do with James Bond.
My point being, it's kinda sad that the gaming industry rewards yearly iterations and sequels over new IPs. It's partially responsible for the fact video games have trouble maturing and reaching the artistic integrity of other mediums.
For every Last Of US, there's a hundred "by the book" sequels of existing franchises being made. For any risk taken, there's 300 sequels "playing it safe" cause they want the "franchise" to appeal to more people. I know it's mostly inevitable due to the high costs of developing games, but it's pretty sad when Franchises are what these companies are selling.

Not all franchises need to be annualised. GTA is one of the biggest franchises in gaming, and we've been waiting since 2010 for a new one. Rockstar take a very different approach to their franchises, which is to take their time making them, and making them huge. As in, you can play for years and still notice new things.
Not every franchise is Call of Duty.
