I wish they would with some actual upgrades instead of this pathetic excuse they are doing with RDR1 on PS5.

Playing RDR2 felt like playing something that shouldn't exist, like it's too special. The budget, love and care that went into it shone through every time I started it. Just the fact that they chose to make those long animations and have a slower tempo instead of something more gamey and ADHD was remarkable. It's one thing to have a wild west game, but another to have a "simulator".
The immersion when you walked through a forest at dawn and the light shone through the tree tops or when Arthur began to sing to himself sometimes when you rode makes me think it'll be a long time before something likea this pops up again.

RDR2 is great, but you can't look too deep at its mechanics, otherwise it just falls apart.
Movement is beautiful, but it's clunky to play. You spend a lot of time doing meaningless things like looting, picking objects and the like; mission design is also VERY limited.
Story is good, but pacing harms it a lot - though that can be said about 80% of current AAA games.
Production values are all over the place, but very little of it translates into actual gameplay fun.
As by being "topped", if you mean in the technical side, TLOU2 did it one year later. If you mean by open world goodness, then I don't think it has topped BOTW.

RDR2 100% topped for having best controls in a video game ever created. They topped the controls so hard, that I quit the game after playing for 20 minutes and while still being stuck in the intro and never came back.

It hasn't been topped when it comes to having the most impressive world in gaming, and TLOU2 is not impressive as RDR2 on the technical side not even close.

RDR1 is on PS4 not PS5, I'm sure they'll do a PS5 version with upgrades once all the suckers buy the PS4 version.

Sounds like fun considering the entire game is built around a broken economy expecting you to spend real money.

Are you ok?
No matter every single quality the control scheme is fucking atrocious. Someone should hang for this.

No doubt it's not an amazing game but I don't have the time to play an open world game with more animation frames for movement than what exists in reality. Fuck that.

That’s correct, my bad. So dumb, I’m not touching this at all, Rockstar continue to disappoint recently but I’m no doubt going to be a sucker and in day 1 for GTA6

There are people that like getting shat on in their mouths, that doesn’t make it right or normal.
RDR2 control scheme is extremely convoluted, it also makes it almost impossible to play any game in parallel since you won’t be able to recall all the damn button combinations for the simplest of tasks.

exploring the beautiful world was fun but yea if it had a fun combat system with fun encounters then yea easily a 10/10.
