Is Red Dead Redemption 2 the greatest looking game of all time?
Is Red Dead Redemption 2 the greatest looking game of all time?
Jaxon Ross
Andrew Moore
I don't get what people see in it. Some of the backdrops look amazing but that's about it. The textures don't look that great, the models look awful, the grass looks shitty, the night sky is unimpressive with basically the same constellation in the sky every night...It's really not that impressive looking of a game other than in very few select areas, like the entrance to Braithwait Manor or Lake Isabella. There's a reason why the game makes such heavy use of that weird foggish lighting, to obscure the poor textures
Kevin Ross
That would be Wind Waker
Aaron Gonzalez
No, Metro Exodus wins that title
Jaxson Myers
It's volumetric lighting and atmospherics are top notch, as is it's LOD tech, but there's lots of really sloppy modelling and shitty low res textures as a result of a lot of the work being farmed out to Rockstars Indian sweatshop.
Damn shame really as it really does detract from the games quality.
Gabriel Brooks
i don't get it. a lot of PS4 games look better
Nathan Long
Some of the textures are shit/blurry but the overall look of the game when just taking in the environments is better than anything I've ever seen.
Of course you will see shitty textures though if you're zooming in on everything, that's the case for all Rockstar's games.
Eli Evans
The only game that rivals it would probably be Uncharted 4
Gavin Roberts
>Literally only thing that looks really good are character models
>everything else is nothing huge
ok
Charles Smith
Graphics mean everything for my immersion and I'm tired of waiting for them to finally look good.
Lincoln Jenkins
>2020
>the witcher 3 still unmatched
stylized high detail fantasy graphics > high detail realistic graphics
Michael Bailey
No.
Easton Cox
cope
Jackson Rivera
Easily.
Thomas Hall
the game looks great but i just wish i could figure out how to make the game less blurry
Brody Brown
>That's stylized high fantasy graphics to witcherfags
Tyler Fisher
Sharpen it with the nvidia filters
Brandon Flores
don't i need geforce experience for that? idk wtf is wrong with my drivers but geforce experience won't install, has to do with something called " NVIDIA virtual audio ", i've tried every trick in the book and at this point i've just given up
Jason Morris
No.
Asher Baker
Lol
Lincoln Garcia
What is it and zoomers obsession with realism? Fantasy landscapes with wide color palettes will always be infinitely better this than shit.
Asher Nelson
I agree with you and I don't get all the detractors. When I play Witcher 3 on PS4 in 4k, I find myself thinking it looks better than RDR2, everything just blends together better and the art style impresses me more. Like when I walk around Beauclair it just looks so much more beaiutiful than walking around Saint Denis
Alexander Jones
It is the best looking game for it's size, for sure. In terms of sheer graphic capabilities, I'd give it to Shadow of the Tomb Raider - but that game is very much confined to smaller areas so they could afford to do that.
Connor Sullivan
>I don't get all the detractors
typical Yas Forums contrarians
Grayson Price
unironically this.
Graphicfags are almost as bad as sonytrannies. Id you want realism so bad, go outside and take a picture? I don't get it.
Austin Evans
Not even the best of its own year.
Oliver Clark

RDR2 looked crazy fucking good graphics-wise, but absolutely nothing will top TW3's artstyles, ever.
Nathaniel Morales
I've personally never played a game that looks as good as it does graphically. And doubt there's an open world that can compete, graphics-wise that is. The lighting engine is next-generation, i'm stunned they managed to make it fly on consoles.
Luke Price
Ironically, the best looking game of 2018 was a PS4 exclusive. Might have been a shit game that I unironically love but God of War 2018 is fucking gorgeous.
Brody Ward
Looks gay as fuck. Give me realism with some thick atmosphere over queer shit like that any day
Hudson Gomez
If you're implying that God of War is better looking, it's not.
Carter Martinez
Uncharted 2 doesn't even come close.
Caleb Harris
It might not be as graphically advanced but the art direction is stellar. As someone stated earlier, realism can go fuck itself. RDR2 is the brown & bloom era all over again.
Jacob Miller
>pic unrelated
that looks like dogshit. jap science fantasy shit always looks like shit.
Jeremiah Jones
It has the best lighting and weather systems ever put in a video game
Christian Martin
>Uncharted 2
I know you meant 4 but 2 is the greatest game in the series, and one of my personal favorites of all time. And for 2009 it was mind-blowing how good it looked.
BUT on the topic of 4, it's still really fucking good looking- and for being released in 2016 it still holds up as one of the best looking games to this date.
Mason Phillips
TW2 has a better art style and better graphics than TW3.
Wyatt Flores
TW2 doesn't have better graphics.
However the art style is MILES better.
Daniel Howard
That's a strange muscle memory there. But nah 4. It's got cutscene graphics settings so images like that one will be ahead of RDR2 but gameplay it's way below.
Daniel Robinson
Graphics today still look like shit because you are all a bunch of broke niggers and just HAVE TO BUY shitty consoles. Crysis 2007 is pretty close to anything released today. I hope you all get deported for being brown and poor.
Landon Ross
I was never blown away by anything in nuGoW until the very end of the game with Freya resurrecting the giant. The game looks good, it's just not that visually appealing when it comes to the landscapes due to it's weird ass level/open ended design.
With RDR2 almost every single second of the game looks like a damn painting
William Garcia
It unironically does. You might think TW3 has some fancy graphics being a sequel but it doesn't.
Austin Russell
foolish gaijin's
Lucas Martinez
Lucas Lee
And that's great if you like realism.
Ethan Hall
Ehh true I guess, but the gameplay is still damn good looking. Especially for having come out 2 years prior to RDR2
Gavin Sanders
Realistic... AND colorful?
No. Impossible. I'm covering my eyes! I don't see it! It's not real! LALALALALALA
Angel Richardson
why is everyone so impressed with the lighting and weather. i dont even think it looks that good.
Lincoln Jones
I do actually, because it looks way better than half-assed "art-style" directions in games like nuGoW
Eli Price
The density of foliage and draw distance btfos any other open world game I've seen
Alexander Lopez
because it looks good.
lighting aside, RDR2's strongest suit IMO is the insane LOD. No game ever had this kind of LOD and draw distance. It's jaw dropping.
Josiah Carter
Nigger you don't have to like it but there is nothing half-assed about the art direction in nuGoW.
Jace King
I think Souls fags are pretentious douche bags and the games are overrated, BUT I fucking loved Sekiro almost strictly for the style. Blows Dark Shit out of the water when it comes to visually interesting environments, without sacrificing level design. And it runs pretty good too
Gabriel Perez
DS1 and 3 have incredible art direction, though. Bloodborne as well.
Not sure about demon's or 2, didn't play those.
Aiden Perry
There is because most levels are corridor caves, too fucking cramped. Best parts of the game were the lake sections and those lead into nothing but cramped caves lol.
Older God of Wars had crazy spectacles, like big city wars and crazy shit like Mt. OIympus, which was mind-blowingly good looking when 3 originally released. There's almost none of that in the new one
Nolan Sullivan
I dont understand why im supposed to be so impressed. I look at your screenshot and it looks no better to me than something like this
Jeremiah Evans
I get the old Smuggler's Run "holy shit I can ride way the fuck over there?" feeling from this game.
Justin Myers
I only got to Scotland or whatever then I literally fell asleep and didn't bother with it anymore so maybe it picks up but the PS4 was pretty lame graphically from what I played.
Your pic looks pretty flat.
Julian Harris
Witcher 3 looks better and came out in 2015
Colton Gutierrez
That's subjective I guess, I wasn't too impressed by them. Sekiro was impressive though.
Henry Sanchez
funny joke
Austin James
PS3 tier hair
PS3 tier NPC textures
dogshit looking fur
Hudson Thompson
>maxsettings
delet this
Caleb Perry
TLL did a much better job at impressive environments, but 4 was still damn good looking.
You should've continued past Scotland, the game got pretty good after that.
Joshua Thompson
mirrors edge is a beautiful game with a unique color palette but still feels very realistic. amazing graphics for 2008
Jose Torres
The constant praise for this game makes me feel like I live in another reality.
It really doesn't look that good.
The story sucks.
The music is very boring and sparse.
And yet we all have to pretend this is the best looking, best written and best sounding game ever made. It just boggles my mind.
Gabriel Perry
Meanwhile he posts no picture because he knows he's wrong....
Aaron Edwards
Lmao look at the foliage in OP's pic compared to that
Sebastian Reed
I didn't even play 3, I think 2 games was enough.
Brayden Clark
Maybe you just have shit taste
Bentley Richardson
Well you should, they're great games.
I still like the og trilogy more than 4 and TLL, but those games are still damn good.
Ryder Adams
>doesn't look that good
Agreed, I don't know what everyone is screaming about. Is it about the realistic faces? Uncharted 4 and GoW2018 did better. Is it about the environments? Realistic, but not particularly pretty. The lighting? Impressive, but it's just lighting and there's nothing outstanding about how it looks.
>story
It's here and there. I think it's pretty good overall.
>music is boring and sparse
Less is more in a game like this. How engaging the music is is up to personal taste.
Caleb Green
same except for its visuals. everything else about RDR2 was trash. I believe that's not really a minority opinion, alot of people didn't like it.
would've been alot better if they canned their C-tier trashcan story for a wild west RPG.
Noah Miller
>The year is 2007
>Everyone on this board now wasn't even born
>The best graphics game comes out
>13 years later this thread is made and retarded faggots argue over which console port has le good graphics
Jackson Foster
My opinion is opposite of yours. I don't understand the critique at all. Great music, insane visuals, amazing real-time story. My only complaint was that there weren't enough side activities, like the amount of legendary hunts was lacking and the format was lame too.
The rewards sucked as well, RDR1 did that better.
Joseph Watson
Okay you wanna-be boomer.
Crysis looks like shit now, go install it and find out for yourself faggot
Cooper Peterson
You can have that wild west RPG by playing Red Dead Online.
It's shit.
Samuel Wilson
Crysis is still #1 in certain areas but some games have surpassed parts of it.
Aiden Ramirez
I built my first computer while your dad was fighting for trans rights and fucking niggers just to play crysis.
Julian Wood
I think KCD has the best forests I've seen but RD2 is all round very good
Aiden Williams
Jayden Ramirez
>the lighting is so amazing
>look at all these screenshots with the same fog effects and whitish filter meant to cover up the shitty textures
Jason Sullivan
One thing that REALLY misses the fucking mark about RDR2 is how people look when it rains.
>doesn't look like rain wetness, looks like they were dipped in wax
>everyone is soaked to the bone in an instant
>including models that are indoors when it starts raining and remain indoors the whole time
John Long
My dad actually despises trans and niggers, nice try you projecting fag-lord
Sebastian Lopez
Nolan Gutierrez
t. never played crysis
t. only has ever seen crysis on a mobile telephone screen
kek
Jackson Baker
The game looks like trash in screenshots honestly. You have to play it to understand what's amazing about the lighting.
Hudson Allen
Honestly looks like Fallout 4.
Ethan Harris

What are you gonna say now?
Blake Parker
No go inside and talk to a shopkeep who hasn't left the building in days.
Jeremiah Stewart
Thats why I dont understand these people saying "best lighting and weather of all time". The weather effects in this game are not impressive. It actually looks really shitty and static and same with the lighting. It's like as soon as the weather effect starts it immediately changes everything about the environment and its always a single state.
Isaiah Foster
In screenshots it’s nice, in video it’s just ok due to frame rate, playing it sucks cause bad response time + frame rate issues
Juan Scott
i wish there was a new just cause game with rdr2 tier graphics and the current patched performance. i absolutely love flinging myself and others around with grapple hooks
Gavin Howard
I wish all games had the NPC detail of RDR2. It's pretty crazy how unique many of them are.
Samuel Hughes
>Never should have come here!
Brody Ward
that you need eye surgery if you think this game looks bad
Hunter Bell
GTAV on Ultra unironically looks better.
Julian Perez
Fuck that rock-skippin' ginger little shit, I told him to fuck off as Arthur, then told him to fuck off 8 years later as John
Eli Brown
Dominic Powell
i really like this game's visuals
Thomas Myers
>The weather effects in this game are not impressive. It actually looks really shitty and static and same with the lighting.
Ethan Wright
You're gonna need eye surgery after I'm done with you, boy
Ryan Wilson
Jeremiah Bennett
it's blatantly made for last gen, even maxed out it doesn't have the same model and weather detail as rdr2. if it wasn't cucked by last gen it would've looked as good as rdr2
