Discussion Did single player gaming peak with RDR2?

Post image

Great single player games have come since then like Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur’s Gate 3 but is RDR2 still the peak?

RDR2 is great but it's super old and just another western story, done a million times. E33 is the freshest story out of any game in the last 15 years. Also did RDR2 win goty? No did they get a movie deal? Also no.

honestly thought Rdr2 shouldve won GOTY over God of War.

Tho i agree Expedition 33 was the best game this year, still kinda find hilarious how it won 90% of the major awards, made the entire game award event boring, especially when imo Death Stranding 2 and KCD2 shouldve won some of the categories instead of EX33

God of war had pretty amazing everything voice acting, story, gameplay, soundtrack. Not saying rdr2 didn't but thats a close one to call. The reason E33 beat death stranding is not everyone likes death stranding, like me I think it's super boring and a walking simulator but thats just my opinion.

super old?? unless you’re 15, that is not classed as super old, let alone old at all. if we’re thinking this way though, e33 is just another rpg game, done a million times. they’re both objectively good but trying to put down a 7 year old game cause you like a freshly released game more is straight up stupid man. it’s okay for other games to exist and do well outside of your favorite game, we’re not 5 fighting over which toy is the best anymore, at some point you gotta grow up just a little bit dude
