Question

Red Dead Redemption 2 PC?

I literally purchased a PlayStation for Red dead Redemption 2 yesterday and it's going back today. The Playstation controls really do suck when you are used to keyboard & mouse. What is it with RockStar that they can't just say if they intend bringing this game to the PC? I mean, why do some development teams choose to act all secretive about a game coming to the PC or not? When do you think we are most likely to hear something, or do you think it will just go the same way as the first Red dead Redemption and not arrive on the PC?

I didn't get chance to see if Red dead Redemption 2 is better then Grand Theft Auto V, which I have on my PC. But for those that have played both games what do you reckon? I'm talking about comparing the games now not the Playstation controller v Keyboard & Mouse. I just want to get an idea what Read dead 2 is like compared to GTA V. I thought it looked a really good game, but didn't stay on it long enough because I'm useless with the Playstation controller..

    @LZoltowski - Would that be one big mod added for GTA V or different ones? Where do I get the mods that make GTA V look like this?

    Actually, it's just one mod (plus a few optional ones that are listed in the installation manual, like 4k textures and real-life Hollywood sign and real-life billboards and adverts for the extra immersion)

    It's one of the best mods out there makes GTAV near photorealistic.

    Has simple easy instructions on how to get it installed.

    surprisingly it has low FPS impact, plus paired with the ENB (also included in the manual) it adds much more advanced Ambient Occlusion, high res screen space reflection, and GLOBAL ILLUMINATION! ... plus image based sky lighting and long shadows, this means when there is sunset or sunrise you can see earth shadow covering up or exposing the buildings, mountains and streets. Oh and volumetric physical clouds.

    @LZoltowski - Do you know if the mod is online compatible? Meaning it won't get me banned for using a mod like this will it? That's if you can even get banned from GTA V? The mod makes it look like a new game..

    Didn't rockstar have some issues with people modding & withdraw modding support?

    I purchased a PS 4 just before Christmas and I haven't stopped playing Red Dead Redemption 2 since. I thought my 2D gaming days were over but not when there's games like this around. I haven't even looked at The Last Of Use, which is also supposed to be a really good game. I'm also looking forward to Cyberpunk 2077 for the PC, so 2D still wets my appetite, it's just finding the right games with good content..

    I am obsessed with Assasins Creed Oddysey at the moment, it is HUGE, I am 100 hours in. A lot of design queues from the Witcher 3, fantastic game with an engrossing story.

    I've looked at Assasins Creed Oddysey a few times now, so no doubt I'll pick it up. I've still got the Metro series to play, but I'm quite enjoying 2D again between VR games..

    Yea, I got pulled back in to 2d gaming myself. After buying an Odyssey and realizing just how far away we are from getting the kind of visual fidelity I want in VR, I bought a low input lag 49" 4k HDR TV that I'm using for a monitor and it's quite fantastic. I haven't had the urge to pick up my VR headsets in a bit but I still keep up with the news.

    I've been playing Destiny 2, Far cry 5, Ark, Rocket League and Total War Warhammer 1/2 mostly but also a bunch other random games. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is on my list.
