I continued working my way through Red Dead Redemption 2 today. I did the Bank Heist in Valentine and did a stage coach robbery camp activity too.
The game looks really gorgeous now that i don't have to worry about FSR muddling everything up.
One example is the mentioned robbery mission. The whole quest had raindrop falling from the roof that i just couldn't see before. Not to mention the way the bricks and stuff were wet from it.
I've done this robbery mission so many times now (in all honesty it's probably about 4 though) that it feels like second nature. Usually i just blow the safes open. But this time i decided to pick them all. I made off with $3000.
While on my way back from this mission, i had to stop to do the Second part of the Downes quest. I stopped at their farm, and before talking to them i went and played with their animals. They had this adorable dog chilling in the back by the goats.
i'm still amazed every time i see shots of this game from 2018. everything else, even other great games, seem halfass by comparison
All the time it spent in the oven was definitely good for it. There's very few games i feel like i can say feel the same way as what you describe.
