I'm intrigued by some of the details they mentioned such as the conversation options to deescalate a deadly potential gun fight or to hurl insults at people to start brawls. Hanging out with your gang to improve morale and do other activities sounds fun too. It sounds like this is gonna have massive hours worth of gameplay beyond just the main story

The writing is going to make or break this.

The sandbox stuff all looks really solid. Main character looks like a mix of Josh Brolin, Clint Eastwood and Tommy Lee Jones and that has some potential.

I think this is one of the rare games where I'm confident in its quality to the point of pre-order.

This just keeps sounding better and better.

Some neat details:

-You can eat food. Eat a lot and you get fat. Eat too little and you get thin and it can affect your stamina

-Running a lot (exercise) increases your stamina

-You can interact with damn near everything, including multiple conversation options with NPCs and they will remember conversations and past interactions. So like if you're a dick to a random dude, later in the game that dude will remember you're a dick.

-You can layer your clothes, pick different styles and get a hair cut. Your hair and beard actually grows as time passes.

-You have to do gun maintenance just like in real life. If you don't periodically clean your weapons, their stats go down. Also, if something happens like you get them wet, they are less functional.

I read this article yesterday. Wish I hadn't. Just made me more hyped up for the game that still has more than a month until release.

This game is gonna be so good.

Tell me about it. It's going to be such a long wait. With everything being interactive, it sounds like this game is going to have massive hours of gameplay in it beyond the story. I want to get the new Assassin's Creed game as well so between this and that, I don't know where I'm gonna find the time to play. All I know is RDR2 is gonna be my top priority. It definitely has the look of Game of the Year, just like the first one (which was my favorite game possibly ever)

Yeah. I've been trying to hold off getting new games, but the wait still feels so long that I broke down and got Spider-Man. But Spider-Man has been worth it, so that's a plus.

It looked really great but I'm an Xbox guy. :( Spider-Man was the first exclusive that really bummed me out that I'm missing. I'm still holding out hope they'll port it in a year or two.

I was surprised myself that a game that licensed a big time character was an exclusive. Would've figured Marvel would have had them make it for both major consoles for better sales, but I guess they decided an exclusive was the better route.

I never pre-order games but I did for this one. I'm already ashamed with how much time I will dedicate solely to hunting/fishing. Seems like they are really focusing on animals in this one, horses,big game, different fish etc. I fully expect to get mauled by bears and coyotes early on.

One novelty was the left trigger, which is used not just to aim but to focus on things. With Morgan’s guns holstered, I could aim the camera at my horse, press the left trigger, and get a list of contextual interaction options such as “brush” or “feed.” Taking the same action while nearing someone on horseback could produce options to “rob,” “greet,” or “aggravate.” Rockstar told me that everyone can be focused on and interacted with. And with weapons unholstered, I’d be able to aim my weapon to intimidate people or, of course, shoot them.

Newest gameplay trailer. I don't see any way how this game isn't Game Of The Year. It looks amazing
