Just max it out and use DLSS.Is there an updated 'best Settings' guide for PC Red Dead 2 between perf and quality?
which DLSS setting for a 2070 Super and 9700k processor?
Do balanced and performance and see which you'd prefer.
This video came up in my YT recommendations and the game just looks so great on new hardware:
A welldone visual showcase video too. BEst watched in 4K in a larger view than the tiny embedded player.
There was a thread of like, "what games do you mistake for real life" thread on Gaming Forum the other day, and I was about to post RDR2 because I think it's the most visually impressive game I've played, but it didn't really apply ... RDR2 looks almost like a painting, like the quintessential reflection of the world, y'know like the sort of sunset you remember in a dream, or from a vivid memory, and that the regular world only rarely matches up to how it's reflected in the game. Rockstar has always done this -- the giant moon in the GTAIII series, the lighting in LA and the desert in San Andreas, the lighting in GTAV, the sunsets in RDR and RDR2.
I know this post is a million years old now but it reminded me of a video I saw that might interest you:
How Red Dead Redemption 2's landscapes are connected to 19th century art
#RedDeadRedemption2 #ArtHistoryRockstar says Red Dead Redemption 2 wasn't specifically inspired by the art of the Hudson River School of Art (or anything els...www.youtube.com
Just started a few days ago and barely scratched the surface.
First impressions though, holy shit you can see and hear the production quality. The whole introduction justifies the title of art.
Everything so far is slow and methodical. But this is creating some immersion, especially with game play spliced with cinematic angles.
However there are a few nagging things. Other than the obvious and trodden weight on controls, an item is in front of you and you can't pick it up because Arthur spins around and past it over and over it.
But the more frustrating thing for me is all the tips constantly popping up. The hud and text size is tiny and in there middle of game play they pop up for 5 second to press x or y. Sometimes it sounds out feels intuitive and sometimes not. Other times is tap this button it holds that same button.
It's immersion breaking when I have to keep second guessing what buttons to press. Maybe it will start to click and I can play without thinking.
Oh, and I can't tell if I should be decent or a dick.
You can disable individual elements of the HUD in the settings menu, so you can disable things like the button prompts, but it might not be a bad idea to leave them on until you feel a little more comfortable with the controls. The game definitely can feel like it has too many things mapped to the same button, so you might be trying to greet someone and inadvertently attack them or take a drink at the bar at accidentally whip out your gun and fire. It's definitely a point of frustration that you just end up learning to live with to experience the amazing production values everywhere else.Just started a few days ago and barely scratched the surface.

So I finally bought the ultimate edition after wanting to play this for years. I'm trying to play on series X but it keeps crashing. Like hard, turns-the-whole-console off crashing. Most of the time it won't even boot. I get this message that says "for some reason, Red Dead Redemption 2 took too long to start." Does this game work on Series X? I don't see info online about these issues.
I haven't had issues with other games. I'll see if a reinstall fixes it. Thanks.Edit: Have you had issues with any other games? I was playing a lot of non-Series X games just fine for some months, before I tried playing Series X games, and started to get crash issues.
Yes, it works (very well) on Series X.
That might be a hard drive issue. I had the same thing when I first got mine, though a different game. Eventually I sent it off to MS and got it replaced.
But obviously before you do all that - unplug / replug; uninstall / reinstall; and I'd also recommend giving MS's chat support a go. It's actually really good.

I heard rumblings of a next-gen patch continue or hold off playing?
You heard rumblings of it, or asking others? Haven't heard shit unfortunately. Everything is bull shit algorithm videogame websites ... GameRantX: "RELEASE DATE FOR NEXTGEN ENHANCED RDR2" and then it's just 1800 words of utter bull shit and aaaaaalot of lumbago pill ads
Nothing has been officially announced or confirmed but at least there's hope given how Rockstar has milked GTAV for a decade. I think people are still just salty that we can't get an HD remaster for RDR1 since it was MacGuyvered together with toothpicks and chewing gum and can't be ported to modern systems so it's fun to know that RDR2 remastered is at least technically possible.Looking again looks like nonsense. Bumps to old articles or deleted stuff. I hate all they bait.
i'm finally playing through this and I love it...so much that it's taken me two years to get to chapter 6 .
Here's something though that kicked in a memory from the back of my head out of nowhere.
The OST one of the songs uses a sample from Body Harvest 64.
The moment I heard the notes my mind was sent back years in time just now and I had to share it cause it really freaked me out in a good way.
Any idea how to narrow it down so we can try to find it? Google gave me nothing.
I don't know why, but my backlog is still stacked but I feel like coming back to this masterpiece once again on these hot summer nights. Is it summertime sadness or it's like the perfect summer game I have no idea lol (and that applies to most R* games for a reason).
The amount of gore and sadism on this game is so-well made and organically implemented in this game, that is still keeps getting my head explode in certain moments.
Now you just need to 100% it.
Been picking off some end-game stuff and honestly I'm really thinking about going for a fresh playthrough.
The game still looks gorgeous and the RPG mechanics are 100% my jam.
But the backlog is looking crazy and that's because it's not like I've had hours of free time anyway ...
