No comment on the central question, but I’m amused by the idea of a “Typing of the Dead” style spin-off of RDR2.

Are you asking specifically about the PC aspect or the game itself? The game is pretty awesome. I mean, it’s not challenging or anything. If you put in the hours, you’ll “win”. But, the scope of this thing and the detail is absolutely incredible.

Just the game itself. So there is an “end” to the game? Is it fun to just sandbox and run around killing stuff? How’s the replay-ability? Still fun the third or fourth time through? It seems like a good time killer.
