Depends mostly on what PC specific improvements they have. If raytracing, then we might be waiting for next gen cards. If no raytracing a 2080 Ti will most likely handle it just fine if a Xbox One X can do 4K 30 fps.

I lost interest in RDR1 almost halfway through, and before that I was all into it. It just felt like I was dragging my feet hoping it was nearly over after a certain point. I didn't even look back after I beat it, I wasn't even interested in the zombie thing they put out, which was apparently good. I traded it online with no regrets.
Yeah, I actually didn't care to play Undead Nightmare either.
I have fantastic memories of the first game, and what I've seen of 2 was pretty positive, but I just don't get excited at this announcement. Maybe for a low enough price on Steam in a couple of years...
It's not even that, standard is 30%-25%-20%, so even smaller devs have access to better deals.
On the mod front I'd expect things to go similarly to GTA V. Rockstar locks the files down as best they can, modders eventually find a way in.
I forget how long it took for GTA V mods to start appearing. Some number of months?
RDR2 is a less interesting game for mods though, just inherently less stuff in it. It's compelling more because of its atmosphere and narrative than because of its sandbox elements. I'm sure there's some fun stuff mods will eventually allow you to do, but I'm not immediately compelled by the idea of buying this version for that reason, unlike GTA V. Wait and see on that.
My 970 may or may not be able to outperform my PS4 Pro with this game, but regardless I don't really find prettier graphics to be much of a reason to buy and play a game a second time. After 30 minutes you'll have gotten used to the prettiness and are just playing that same old game again. And I'm not particularly interested in doing that after having spent like 150 hours on it. I rode until I couldn't no more.

This will be a far better experience with a mouse and keyboard for shooting. I can't wait for this. Despite really liking the game I stopped playing because of the blur on my pro and the shooting on controller. I knew it was coming to pc so I figured I'd just shelve it and wait.
If it has a modern i7 and a 1060 or better it will probably be better than PS4
Yup.

Red Dead Redemption 2 PC |OT| - The Evil That Men Do
Red Dead Redemption 2 PC |OT| - The Score
I would say that's unlikely. To my knowledge all the PC RAGE (Rockstar Advanced Game Engine) games have uncapped frame rates.
That's GTA IV, GTA IV: EFLC, Max Payne 3 and GTA V.

I have a good idea for a more interesting mod scene for RDR. Make it West World. Mod in a train and modern arrival area. RP's get to act as the park overseers while NPC's are actual hosts save for a few that want to RP as hosts that realize something is going on, then you have the newcomer RPers that are having fun in the park. This way you can introduce fancy ATVs and stuff to police the park when things get out of hand.
Edit: Just please don't call it Westworld. Maybe something like Redemption Range, ЯR.

As much as I love this game. I do not want to play it again. Especially how linear some of the main missions were. Can't wait to see what this looks lile though on pc.
Red Dead Redemption 2 PC |OT| - Welcome to Westworld
A mod like this would be amazing!
I wish they would let you install multiplayer as an option instead of being a mandatory download along with the game for those we come only for the singleplayer experience.
You could get easily creative with it.
Give us a "More Zombies" mod at night.
"Friend Animals" mod to have your own Lion or Legendary Croc to fuck around with.
More Cars, Real Max Payne shooting mod (lol), etc.
There's tons of possibilities, my boyo. You just gotta know how to "accessorize" a Western setting.
I pretty much had my mind set for months on the idea of this being a Rockstar Launcher exclusive and while not a fan I didn't have much to complain about it (it's their first party title at least).
But this schedule for delayed releases? This is some transparent bullshit, they couldn't make their agenda of deliberately wanting to undermine Steam's leadership more clear.
I waited one year despise having a PS4 Pro at the time, I think I will manage to wait one extra month, just in spite of what they are doing here.

That'd be a really fun one. You can already dive in slo-mo, just can't shoot during the dive. If someone finds out how to not remove the ability to shoot while diving, boom, Max Payne bullet time baby!
Just stop thinking about it, it's currently in short term memory. So about puppies, are they cutter than kittens?
game already looked gorgeous on PS4. I can't even begin to imagine how it'll look on PC at ultra.
Puppies can be cuter, depending on which breed. Kittens are cute no matter what.
Don't worry about locked files. Expect basic mods(.meta/.xml) right after launch. Expect something entirely different a little later.
It's time to ride again.
970m unfortunately lol with an i5 I believe. but I don't think I could make it through the game again anyway, one playthough and done seems good enough.
def keeping an eye out for mods though, great game-changing mods could convince me for sure and I plan on getting a pc for cyberpunk as well.
Exactly as you expect. Xbox One X version but no load times and more detail on screen. Lighting is better, it looks bleaker in the campsite but lusher in the fields. Still controls like garbage.
What was the frame rate like? The controls don't really surprise me seeing as it's being streamed.
Obviously it's based on the PC version, but it doesn't feel like a PC version. It feels like a console game. All the Stadia games I've seen have console menu options. I believe Google Stadia itself adjusts the options based on your connection, and doesn't let you decide anything beyond possibly choosing 1080p resolution instead of 4K if you have the speed to do both but want to limit bandwidth or something.
Interesting, thanks!
On mouse+kb???
And how plays like a dream and controls like garbage at same time and not 60+fps??? Do you mean a bad dream?
