Should i get rdr

I will update this review if I find anything else that is not family-friendly but, right now I can't find anything that isn't. Thanks for spending the time to read this and I would definitely recommend buying this for your child if they are into the old West. Thanks again and have a good day! Had useful details 8. Read my mind 3. Amazing depth! So far, I have played for a few hours and made it out of the snow to the campsite.

What I have seen and heard so far is not excessive as some mature rated titles are such as the new Doom games , but it is still appropriate for the mature rating it has received. Violence and gore: So far, I have seen several shootouts, a fist fight, a dead horse on the ground with its guts sprawled into the snow and urine underneath it, and a decapitated body strung up underneath some train tracks with blood dripping from the body, and guts on the ground. To the side of the lower half of the body is also a head of the character that is pinned against the wooden post with some form of stake and a paper inserted into its mouth.

A lot of the violence is what can be seen in some Teen rated games, such as the Uncharted series, but there are occasional scenes that are more graphic, such as the slow motion deaths that show realistic detail of where the person was shot with blood splattering through the air. You can also drive a knife into your enemies to kill them.

Depending on your actions, they could be cold-hearted killings or self preservation. There is one moment in the game where you can kick a man who is hogtied on the ground. There is another where you have a choice of how to deal with a man who you got into a fistfight with. Language: The language in the game is appropriate for the situation.

Again, it is not gratuitous. There are periods of time where there is no language at all, and there are other periods where I have heard language that would be heard in a Teen game as well. Drugs: There are options to use cigarettes in the game. Some characters can be seen smoking as well. The controls in the game are consistent with the previous Red Dead Redepmtion, but they can be confusing depending on the situation.

For example, the R2 button on the PS4 is used to shoot, but there was a time that I was prompted to use the R2 button to point my gun at some people to convince them to get into a train. Another thing with the controls is holding down buttons while navigating menu systems, such as the equipment wheel, and other buttons that have to be held—at least briefly—before getting the response from the system.

The story, direction, acting, musical score, graphical detail, and the world that the experience is set in is fantastic! I appreciate that the game is not afraid to slow down to show the player that there is a living world to experience, not just run through and shoot up. The contrast from the snowy environment with few wildlife encounters, and then going to warmer forrests with believable animals going about their own lives in herds and realistically responding to approaching humans is mind-boggling.

Thank you Red Dead for putting this in your amazing game so younger gamers can play this award winning game. Had useful details 2. Read my mind 1. Adult Written by Wolfeschlegelst May 13, Adult Written by Gamepert July 14, Lots of gore and mature themes.

First of all, RDR2 is a great game, with an immensely interesting and immersive story, but, very graphic. Some reasons why I recommend RDR2 for kids 15 and up, would be because of lots of gore, language, and mature themes. For example, people can be shot, stabbed, lassoed, mutilated, dismembered, Etc. Characters will have frequent conversations with mature themes, such as sex and alchohol. In the menu under rewards, players can take a look at all of the active coupons in the game.

Using these coupons is a great way to get useful, expensive items for a great rate. There is no need to actually claim them, as purchasing the item at the store will automatically discount a coupon item. This is technically not a purchase, but anytime there are coupons in the benefits tab, people will want to take advantage of them.

Many beginners have no clue that these even exist. The main upgrades people will want to get first are the tent and the fast travel post. Upgraded tents refill cores more and at a faster rate compared to the bed roll or lean-to for example.

It is always good to have full health and stamina when setting out. Likewise, the fast travel post makes going to and from the camp so much more convenient.

Traveling is a part of the game, but no one want to ride on horseback to the camp all the time. Buying these essentials may seem obvious, but a lot of newcomers forget that their guns need ammo and their character needs food to survive. The General Store is a one-stop-shop for the above three essentials. Players can stop by and get everything they need in one place. Because this is a beginner guide, people will only need the above three items to get by in the first few hours of RDO.

The Bolt Action Rifle gives a player immense stopping power, precision, and range in one package. This gun is so effective that many players use it throughout the entirety of their outlaw life.

Outside of bounty hunting, players can be a trader, which revolves around hunting, a naturalist or nature watcher, a collector who scans the West with a metal detector, or a moonshiner, which is one of the slowest roles in the game to make money with. They all have their upsides and their downsides, but each makes the game more interesting than it would be without them.

On July 13, players will be able to start working in organized crime, just with an Old West twist. Galaxy Buds 2 Best Movies on Netflix. If you buy something from a Polygon link, Vox Media may earn a commission.
