I started playing Red Dead Redemption 2 on the PC upon its release in late 2019. Although I enjoyed it, I was distracted by other matters at the time and so I drifted away in early 2020. To cut a long story short, I recently picked up exactly where I left off, because I felt the need for a big, narrative driven, RPG gaming experience. Red Dead Redemption 2 certainly meets those requirements. A few days ago I finished the main story and having played through sufficient side quests and challenges, decided to call it quits. Since then I have been musing on both the game itself and the experience I had while playing through it. Simply put, I consider Red Dead Redemption 2 to be a genre milestone and one of the most significant and impressive examples of video games that I have experienced over the course of my life, along with the likes of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and The Witcher III: Wild Hunt.
