The Wiiviewer reviews Red Dead Redemption for the Nintendo Switch, and talks about how disappointed he was with it. 0:00 Intro 2:03 Spoilers 6:37 No more spoilers
I only record for 5 hours, or to a point where I think spoilers will show up. I was not expecting to put in spoilers in my review when I recorded the footage. It wasn't until I finished the game and was so frustrated that I decided to. That's why there is no footage of Mini-Guns and onward. At the time I thought showing that since I THOUGHT it was Bill dying was going to a be a spoiler. That's why it's not there.

I think the storytelling is actually great. The difference is tone and goals. This game is a lot more interested in making a true spaghetti western (just like Red Dead Revolver), whereas Red Dead 2 was more about making a life-like simulator. John not seeing his family is supposed to add to his mystery (core to his archetype), and it adds shock to hear that his wife is an ex-prostitute and his son is most likely not his. A lot of the characters in the beginning set up the sting operation to take down the invincible Fort Mercer. The more colorful characters are not only more fitting with the spaghetti western tone but are a lot more reminiscent of other Rockstar games. The return to the ranch was expertly done, better than RDR2 in my opinion. John gets to thoroughly take care and interact with his family after fighting so hard to get them, and the part you left out was the shock when Edgar kills him out of nowhere, confirming what Dutch forewarned. I also like the pacing and dialogue a bit more than RDR2, a great example is the welcome to Mexico scene. It's a lot more obvious when RDR2 has filler, and that game can beat its themes over your head pretentiously even at some of its best.

I think context is everything. This came out back when you were reviewing MySims games on the Wii. Sure by today’s standards the story telling isn’t as deep but the storytelling was groundbreaking when red dead 2 released in 2018, this game was nearly a decade before that.

Hey Wiiviewr long time fan here and I wanted to say your review was excellent! I too felt that RD1 was not as good as RD2, though I might be because we both started off with RD2 so who knows haha. Anyway keep up the good work man! 😎👍🏻

I played the original Red Dead Redemption on the PS3, and I liked it. That being said, one of my personal hesitation when I discovered that Red Dead Redemption was gonna be added to the Switch. And one of the biggest reasons why is because of a GTA game that was also added to the Switch, and it apparently being a glitchy and buggy mess.

It was very buggy on all platforms, not just the Switch version, and most of it was because it was a remaster by an outside studio. This Red Dead 1 is a straight port, exactly like the original.

This kinda reminds me of how I played Rune Factory 3 before the 2nd one, and when I played the 2nd one, it felt extremely clunky. Speaking of, Rune Factory 3 got a remake on the switch. If you like Harvest Moon, you might love Rune Factory. 3 especially feels like it does everything right.

I think the time skip section with the son was a fantastic end to the story. I never got into red dead 2. The start was boring to me and it never hooked me in. I need to go back to it.

RDR2 had a slow start that is true. Once you get past the snow the game is great. Let's see if the rumors are true and it's coming to the Switch

Lol at playing a sequel first then being disappointed that the first game doesn't meet the standards met by the second game which you should've played second.

See the thing that I don't understand we do her is they want to charge you $50 for that game when you could just buy it on PS3 or Xbox 360 for 10 bucks currently you know it doesn't seem like it's worth the money
