It looks amazing.

The main main storyline in RDR2 takes 65 hours to complete. Oh boy!

[Skynet]

I have the entire following week off after it comes out

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Nice. Non-stop RDR2!

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Update: 60 hours, not 65.

How the West Was Digitized The making of Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2.

Even the non-playable characters have 80-page scripts — each.

The soundtrack helps, too. You hear sounds of nature, long ambient notes in the wilderness, or the Irish-influenced strain of an antique banjo from a nearby campfire. “We have 192 interactive mission scores, and we thought about the music constantly from the time we brought in [composer] Woody Jackson in 2015,” says Ivan Pavlovich, Rockstar’s music supervisor.

Pavlovich says players can hear entire concerts at town vaudeville shows, as well as more atmospheric music when they explore the open world and encounter some 200 animal species, each of which makes its own sound.

Can’t decide if I want game or hold out for new gta.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

You're going to hold out until 2022?

The game has 107 story missions. That's quite a few.
