No one has ever really come to the Grand Theft Auto series for a good story. The stories aren't bad by any means - in fact, some of them are quite great and have aspirations to be taken seriously on their literary merits ( Grand Theft Auto IV ). And while Grand Theft Auto V had a fun and engaging story, the one found in Red Dead Redemption 2 Crafting Dead Redemption 2 was simply superi
Tied with the "sluggish pace" criticism of RDR 2 is its strict adherence to realism. Some people find this an artful intent, others think it needlessly frustrating. To some, the game's weirdly strict adherence to realism overwrites its sense of fun, limiting imagination and creativity (not to mention slowing the pace to a snail's cra

While Dutch may not have a Chosen One-type prophecy driving his narrative, it would be hard to convince him of it. Dutch believes unequivocally that he is destined to make a utopia for him and his own that fits his fantasy of a free frontier. The original Red Dead Redemption showed Dutch at the very end of his journey when he had no cards left up his sleeve, but even then the enigmatic leader had the last word and ended things on his own terms.

Throughout the Western tale, Arthur and his crew realize that modernization is shunning people like them, but it's the only life they k
