THE REDEMPTION OF SLOP: WHY RDR2 IS ACTUALLY DEEP
Arthur Morgan is a big man with a very expensive hat and a lot of feelings. He spends most of his time riding a horse and thinking about how everything eventually rots and turns into slop. This is much more honest than most video games.
The story is very thick. It has layers like a well-aged brisket. You watch these outlaws try to live a life that doesn't exist anymore and you realize that the whole concept of "outlaw" is just a way to avoid paying taxes on your stolen horse meat.
I like the grit. It feels real. It's better than those jump scare games with the robots. At least Arthur has a soul to lose. Most games just give you a microtransaction.
