This game is very good, but I have a lot of regrets the way I played it. Me and my friend played it over the course of 2 days, we didn’t play a single stranger side mission and just hardlined the story. Even with this rushed experience, this game was amazing. It is really interesting to see how John has evolved since we last saw him, and the cast of characters, while not Red Dead II’s, is still very interesting. While John's character is great, the game is carried by Dutch and his performance, he was great in II and seeing his descent into madness is very very encapsulating. This game manages to capture a very specific moment in time and represent it incredibly. The dying west meeting the new age of technology, the uncomfortability with authority still lingering in the air. The idea of redemption not only in John but in everyone and the 3 dimensionality of morality represented sparks very thought provoking questions. This game is really fuckin good, but I think I would’ve enjoyed it more with more time played.
