This is the 218th instalment of our first impression video series. Today, we are playing Red Dead Redemption II for the first time.

Welcome to the 218th instalment of our first impression video series. Today, we are playing the Playstation 4 game, Red Dead Redemption II for the first time. You can check out the video directly on YouTube or in the embed below:

This is one of those titles I was hoping to get to. I heard a lot of good things about this one and now I’m finally getting to it. I know it is a western style game that is open world. My understanding is that it also has RPG elements as well. So, I’m curious to see how this game ultimately plays out for me.

So far, the controls feel quite good and things are somewhat easy to understanding, sheds notwithstanding of course. Definitely looking forward to getting further into this one.

I also wanted to hear from you. What are your thoughts on this one?

For those who have played this game, what did you think of this one? Was this a fun-filled game with lots of great stuff to do or did you find it to be too convoluted and involved?

For those who haven’t played this game, what are your thoughts on what you saw here? Does this look like an interesting game to play or does the thought of putting in countless hours into something make you think twice about this one? Let us know in the comments below!
