GTMTM '18: Red Dead Redemption 2, Isn't Existence Enough?



Red Dead Redemption 2

And so one of the villains of our last story becomes the hero of a new one. That's a fitting fate for Red Dead Redemption 2, though. It's a game that loves its moral ambiguity.

In fact, it's a game that seems to just love ambiguity in general. Maybe too much. It's a game that's so open-ended that a lot of ink (well, pixels really) has been spilled complaining that the game never justifies its existence, and the majority of it doesn't even matter. To be honest, I think that's entirely on purpose, and even more, that's the whole point of the game.

**Some spoilers, and also a disclaimer that I have not finished the main story, so I'm only writing about my experience that I've had with about 40 hours of playtime, up to chapter 4.**
