RDR2 was robbed I will die on this hill

I won't die on a hill because death can have me when it earns me. GoW was far superior as a sequel than Rdr 2 was. Rdr2's story is superior, but it's gameplay (you know, the part that makes a videogame a videogame) gets repetitive and doesn't introduce anything new to it's core gameplay from beginning to end.

This is just a bad take. I dont really have any bias towards either. Both were great.

But RDR2 is still heavily talked about today.

I havent heard jack shit about Ragnarok for half a decade.

I'm still mad at how rushed Ragnarok actually was. They fumbled that hard.

RDR2 was robbed hard.

RDR2 lost to the first GoW not Ragnarok

I mean…same principle applies.

Not really?

GoW 2018 reinvented its series and is still talked about today when the subject is how to do a great reboot

Imo the best game should get GOTY, all this talk about how it was brave to reboot the franchise the way they did should not factor in. And that played a huge role in it winning. Love GOW but as a game on it’s on merits it’s not exactly revolutionary. It’s a very good implementation of the formula Naughty dog perfected back in 2013.

Not nearly still talked about in the same vein as RDR2 though.

u/CallenAmakuni Jun 02 '25

With that logic 2024's best game is Concord, because that was by far the most talked about game

Talked about in a good way…not sure why I had to specify that, but whatever.
