    This sounds wank.

    I can't remember much about RDR2 apart from attempting to ride across one of the railway bridges and having a train plough into me and hunting one of the legendary animals only for it to fall dead into the river and sink, meaning I couldn't get the pelt.
    That was a fuck's sake and a half.

    Started RDR2. Please tell me it gets more engaging than it is so far, because right now it's reminding me of Death Stranding which is my most hated game ever. Just endlessly plodding around at glacial speeds worrying about keeping a horse alive is not how I want to spend many hours.

    I put in about 20 hours and now the disc is a coaster.

    I've never really got into gaming, but are discs still a thing?

    They sure are. I always buy games on disc as it means I can trade them in when I'm done with them.

    RDR2 is a massive narrative game - you can follow the missions which will see you being a part of a massive story with many twists and turns along the way or you can just fuck off into the wilderness and do your own thing following side quests or just fucking about.

    Because it’s such a mahoosive sandbox it can feel a bit slow at first as the game teases the areas out and the characters out bit by bit. It’s definitely a marathon not a sprint. There are so many characters and gangs that it can take a while to proper get into it.

    That said, if you fancy a blast ‘em up head North east to Vandeburg for a fight - the surrounding wilderness also has some hills have eyes fellas that like your purdy mouth. Or head South east into the gator swamps at night… or find the Aberdeen pig farm…

    Once you pick up where you need to be - it’s basically GTA with horses and better characters.

    It’s worth playing for the run in with the KKK alone.
    And then there’s the psychedelic trip and the terrifying cave adventure.

    Oh and a UFO sighting and a giant’s skeleton if you really want to go exploring.
