It’s crazy how time flies, but it’s been 13 years since Red Dead Redemption first launched. The game takes us back to 1910, a time of change in the Wild West. The government has decided that law and order is needed and the country needs to be rid of the uncivilized way of life of cattle stealers and lawless gunmen. That’s where we come in, or by that we mean John Marston, the unwritten hero of the game. Marston remains one of the most popular protagonists in gaming. Marston, a man trying to get his life back on track and working to put his criminal past behind him, is suddenly drawn into a government game to overthrow his former gang and old comrades-in-arms as he once called him. people for family. 13 years ago, the game itself was great, and I loved every minute I spent on horseback. It’s very rewarding to have so much free play in a game, you really want to experience and see everything. You kind of want to test the limits, and the surprises abound. Everywhere you go, there are people who need your clarification, and you don’t have much time to realize what’s going on. Sure enough, you hear a wolf growl while you’re out riding and realize that if you don’t stop some poor fellow, it’s going to turn into a mouthful. The game itself has a lot to offer, one of which is the poignant and well-written story. A story of betrayal by old allies, friendships that cross borders, and your struggle for love. Along with the whistling buckshot, the smell of sweat and leather, chewing tobacco, and the occasional hemorrhoid following hours in the saddle. Another strength of the game is the incredible characters you meet as you travel across the grasslands. The tough rancher’s daughter Bonnie MacFarlane saves your life at the beginning of the story, a very untrustworthy alcoholic Irishman who can shoot his own mother if he is asked to . But the man who made the biggest impact was our own John Marston, who despite his less-than-pretty background was an honest man who didn’t hesitate to do the right thing when needed. Here’s an ad: The graphics remain the same, except for the higher resolution. The voice actors in the game are really good at bringing the characters to life and making each one very unique, but that’s what Rockstar has always been regarding, choosing the right person for the job. They’re also able to make dynamic games that let everyone live their lives without caring if you’re sitting there holding your controller. Ranchers work as hard as they can, plowing fields and shoeing horses. Whores in the bar threw themselves on the laps of newcomers, and some angry cowboys started a fight outside the salon, which ended in a shootout to the death. Whereas other games often feel like a background with the same faces on every NPC, the pulse beats just right in Red Dead Redemption, which reminds me of the Westworld series. It’s also super easy to get around the huge map if you use fast travel at the campfire or hop on a stagecoach that will quickly take you where you need to go. Unfortunately, however, the travel time in the quest is quite long as you sometimes have to ride long distances to get around, which can often feel like pure filler following a while once you know the route in your sleep . My inner hoarder also lacks unnecessary collectibles to sniff out, flowers and animal skins just aren’t for me. Of course, Rockstar should give us a full remake with new graphics and polished gameplay. Here’s an ad: Thankfully, cigarette cards are a bit like catching Pokémon for me. In my opinion, when there is something to hunt, you explore more. But sure, Treasure Maps gave me some anyway, even if I don’t think it’s enough given how big the game is. Then we have all the quests that keep me busy throughout the adventure. These missions really made me feel like I was in a brilliant western and experienced what it’s like to walk around for a day in John Wayne’s big pointy shoes, spurs and all. I had to get on my horse and ride with brave men to avenge the looting and destruction of a ranch, I fought in the Mexican Revolution, I smuggled a Gatling gun in a wagon and shot hundreds of outlaws Hole. I herded cattle, I rescued horses from burning buildings, and I captured wanted outlaws with lassoes. I also enjoyed some of the side quests, where I hunted down cannibals in the mountains, rescued a shady man who kept getting into trouble, and rescued a teenage girl from a snakebite. I enjoy every minute of what any average cowboy does every day in the savage Wild West. Because no matter how you look at it, this game is such a perfect cowboy simulator that you can almost feel the scrapes on your thighs, the calluses on your hands on the reins and the dust on your face from a full day of riding put it down following 40 hours Controller, live a more comfortable life for yourself. But all this was thirteen years ago. So, now that game developer Rockstar has released the game once more, but this time for the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4, how does the game feel today? What’s the difference? The biggest difference is that, unlike 13 years ago, this is a game that I have already played, that I have experienced. I know the story like the back of my hand, and I know every road I walk. John Marston’s voice was as familiar as my father’s, the weapon felt familiar in my hand, and the controls felt second nature. After all, there isn’t much going on in that regard, except that I’m getting older. This is the same game. All the long rumored rumors regarding an Unreal Engine 5 remake turned out to be just a port of call for the game, which was released in 2010. Sure, the graphics are sharper and the textures a little better, but not because the game was remastered, but because the game is now running on a console five times more powerful than the PlayStation 3, allowing 1080p instead of 720p. That’s not what we really want in 2023. We wanted more because we knew it was obviously possible if you just wanted to get the job done right and not just make money. Red Dead Redemption (2023) is a lazy offering and an unprecedented cash grab. That, and the state of GTA: The Trilogy, have us a little worried regarding GTA VI. Because that’s what it feels like, an easy way to cash in once more on a game that pretty much everyone already has on store shelves at home. I probably wouldn’t say so much if it might be downloaded for a few quid, but considering it’s actually a 13-year-old game that’s only been wrapped in a new case, charging full price feels like robbery. Let’s be honest, Red Dead Redemption isn’t a game that’s aged badly, if you’re watching the PlayStation 3 version from before. At the same time, something that we got in the last version is missing, namely multiplayer support. I can happily say that I’ve avoided all the mistakes, I’m afraid I’ll have to think regarding how their last “remake” went, which was neither successful nor without mistakes, Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, it’s a shame to even have to be a part of it. There’s no way not to like this, Red Dead Redemption was a great game and still is today, but it’s a brazen cash grab that’s different. Instead of just putting out the exact same game as it was released 13 years ago (at a completely ridiculous price), Rockstar should be working on a full-blown remake, especially in these days when pretty much everything old gets made once more at some point become new.
