#Red dead redemption 2 gameplay full
It’s just so big, and the big-ness is not optional, as you’ll have to experience it all to get the full scope of the story. I do not regret spending this much time with RDR2, but I will be amazed if people who can only game an hour or two a day at most finish this before the year is out. And again, that could put you at 60-75 hours at least. And without getting into the content of the Epilogue, you are absolutely going to want to reach that and play through it if you want a satisfying conclusion to the story. It is a shame that because of its sheer size, so many people won’t finish Red Dead Redemption 2, because while yes, it is fun along the way, sure, the game’s biggest payoffs come in its final acts, 45-50+ hours in. And this is all before the online component comes out. Trying to 100% the game with all its extra content will probably easily make it top 100 hours.
Being fully “done” with all the story quests, I am at 80% completion, for those keeping an eye on that metric.Īll in all, this means that just to clear the main story, you are probably looking at a minimum of 55-60 hours if you blaze through it, and probably more like 70-80 hours if you take any amount of time. I still have not done any legendary hunts or challenges, so I could go back for those. After that, I did about another hour of exploring ( finding the original RDR1 map, which is all but empty). Without going into any story spoilers whatsoever, I will say that there is also an epilogue to Red Dead Redemption 2 that is not just “one final mission” the way you might expect, but an entirely separate, 6-7 hour arc.
