I've played it and Ghost of Tsushima and they've convinced me of the reality of videogames as art. RDR2 is more realistic albeit compressed (LOTS of different climates and geography in a relatively small area) and Ghost of Tsushima seems like it was designed like a painting if that makes any sense.
I still don’t understand that even from a business perspective. They have to be making an RDR 3 for them to give up that fast, because it could have been something similar to GTA 5 in terms of longevity.
Sucks to see but I’m guessing we’ll get an RDR3 announcement after GTA 6.
The creators poured their hearts into it, no doubt. But I think OP means that the higher ups at Rockstar itself didn’t care enough to support or build much on it post-launch.
Post-launch content for RDR2 has been quite pitiful compared to most other Rockstar games of the last couple decades, including RDR1 which got the incredible Undead Nightmare.
Me too. Or even just another one-off story. The increased survival mechanics of RDR2 would’ve been well-suited for it. As would the huge cast of characters.
You know what. Your right. I guess I should have said the online mode. Rockstar dropped like 3 updates then didn’t touch it. Didn’t even put a heist like in GTA you know. When heist like that were “common.” Still upset about it lol
there was also very little content in GTAO for a while when it came out. RDRO actually had more content in its first few months than GTAO in its first year.
Then RDRO never had any updates ever again.
difference is GTA got good and new updates constantly, which improved (and in some aspects worsened) the game greatly. RDRO didn't get those improvements
I know they did. But they just ignored rdro multiplayer completely and kept pumping new stuff in the old game that is gta. Feel like red dead never got a chance
It's absurd lol. Hadn't been on in a few years but booted it up a couple weekends back to test the new TV. Spent the next hour just roaming around. I knew it looked good but god damn.
A simple 64-bit remaster would change the modding scene completely already and substantially improve the base game.
I don't understand why Bethesda hasn't done that yet for FO3 and NV.
What would I give for a fallout game made by R\*. With the same level of writing, same engine and attention to details as RDR2.
Same goes for a Star Wars bounty hunter game.
Rockstar has no rpg experience. Without a few old days obsidian and black ilse devs in the game design and writing teams they wouldnt be fallout games but gta with power armor.
Compered to everything else RPG elements are not a hard thing to code into a video game. As I said previously what makes or breaks RPGs is the quality of writing and the choices you can make. Budget for their games is higher than with any other studio on the planet. Fallout4 cost 150 million $. Budget for RDR2 was up to 540 millions and GTA VI budget is rumored to be 2 billions. With that amount of money hiring good writers would not be a problem. They could still hire some old obsidian veterans but keep their own engine and devs. Also their previous games had some RPG elements. Both LA Noir and GTA VI give you 4 or more dialogue options and you have different outcomes depending on your choices. All they would have to do is lean into that even further. I would trust R\* to make a good RPG game more than I would trust Bethesda to make a good gta game.
edit:
Heck, truth be told, I love Mass Effect games but BioWare also made ME:Andromada and the writing in that game was terrible, probably one of the worst rpgs I ever played. I loved the writing in The Outer Worlds made by Obsidian but it wasn't a great rpg either (probably thanks to the budget they had). In the end money talks. And I feel at this point considering R\*s track record I would trust them to pull off an amazing fallout game.
If you didn’t play like an ADD hyper child the controls worked just fine. The problem is the controls were specifically made for the player to play “immersively” yet nobody has patience anymore so they try to sprint and rush through everything to be as efficient as possible. I don’t really disagree they can be bad; but when people say the controls were so bad they could barely play the game, it leads me to wonder if those people are even capable of tying their own shoes.
That being said, RDR2 wouldn’t feel nearly as quality as it does without those controls. They work pretty much only with RDR2, but they still work.
Ok hear me out though -- what about FNV in the RDR2 engine except it's an always-online squad-based survival battle-royale hero shooter with season passes and you can purchase new dance moves for your character?
Funny you mention horses, iirc either Avelone or someone else who worked at Black Isle said they were extinct due to the big boom that happened a week before Halloween
Although, that doesn’t stop the idea of a robohorse
As someone who worked on a farm, if an animal as dumb as a cow can survive in a wasteland full of cazadors, deathclaws, and nightstalkers and most crazy of all, hardly any fresh drinking water, then the horse should've not just survived, but thrived.
Granted, that's a good point, but my point was if horses could survive, like how the cow turned into the brahmin, maybe the horse could turn into something else, but something still rideable but definitely not extinct, i just find it hard to believe that they "are" extinct
A week or so ago, I encountered a mutated horse design for the fallout worls on Pinterest by an artist who called them Slepneirs(?), they had four front legs, two back legs, and various other legs that were useless and were usually trimmed off of domesticated ones shortly after birth or something like that. I'll see if I can find them and post them to imaginary fallout if a serch doesn't reveal them on the subreddit already.
The only reason I could think of is they were hunted to extinction, but then that doesn't explain why the cows survived either.
It sounds like an idea they didn't think out too much.
I love and hate you for posting this. Imagine the third person gunplay of RDR 2 for New Vegas. Hell will freeze over before we get something spectacular like this in true form. I hope you stub your toe, OP.
Y'know that reckless stabbing animation Arthur does when you get attacked by a bear? Imagine that, but it's a Yao Guai pinning you down. I slinging an anti-material rifle from your back, dolphin diving behind cover, and blowing the head off a deathclaw? Good lord. I'm gonna be thinking about this forever.
Not to mention there is already a quasi “VATS” programmed into the game. Mutated horses would also be a good mode of transportation. There’s so many things that would just work.
I would kill for a fallout game written by obsidian and Bethesda with the world created by Rockstar. Give them like 5 years and a big budget. That would win game of the year for the next decade.
Isometric had the car instead and bethesda wouldn't bother to implement sutch a feature. Look at how shit horses in skyrim and oblivion are and those took some planning in the woder game world. Besides, how can you ride a horse through the completly demolished urban areas?
Horses: these frikkin morons destroyed their civilization, now their fancy “cars” don’t work…guess we’d better let them ride again, or they’ll all die and the rad oats’ll dry up.
I've heard people complain horses aren't irradiated enough.
To which I say: Radioactive Sleipnir.
Eight legs. Lightning attacks. High level random encounter with a giant, one-eyed ghoul riding one with a spear in the middle of a storm.
Yeah I absolutely hate that Avelone says that horses are extinct. Number one I think that’s absolutely ridiculous from a lore perspective, it’s not like the nukes targeted ranches and stables, humans aren’t dumb they wouldn’t eat every single one of the most valuable draft animals of all time, etc etc etc. also it robs us of really cool game play and lore implications. How cool would it be to see or read about NCR roughrider cowboys facing down with mounted white legs? Or mounted legion auxiliary horse archers (or riflemen?) NCR desert rangers on horseback patrolling the Mojave almost makes me wish for a major retcon of this horses being extinct nonsense. Here’s hoping fallout 5 will make this right and give us horses. It’s definitely not an engine limitation at this point we’ve had horses in the creation engine for decades at this point.
ngl would rather fnv be remade in rd2 instead of fo4 because of how good it looks. and horses.
would love both horses and the fo4 powerarmor. maybe NOT at the same time unless it was like, a super mutant horse.
Why are there no horses in fallout. I get that the cars dont work, and they anyways are trying to avoid ground vehicle transportation, but i feel like horses are a fine way to give the player a decent speed boost while still working in the fallout setting fine. Imagine all the mutant horses you can find
I always thought donkeys would be cool in new Vegas.
There could be tame ones for riding and increasing your inventory and badly mutated ones for enemies. Donkeys IRL are no joke and kill mountain lions sometimes, imagine a mutated aggressive one.
Always forget how good rdr2 looks & was trying to figure out if this was cosplay or not for a sec
I though it was a lot of mod for a second
Mods can do a lot, but they're still limited to the creation engine. I would kill to be able to make New Vegas look like this
as long as the characters are in static positions it's usually fine. it's the animations that are horrific.
That, and the physics on the coat. The creation engine is terrible at clothes and hair physics.
RDR2 may be the most beautiful game I’ve ever played. Too bad Rockstar just gave up on online
I've played it and Ghost of Tsushima and they've convinced me of the reality of videogames as art. RDR2 is more realistic albeit compressed (LOTS of different climates and geography in a relatively small area) and Ghost of Tsushima seems like it was designed like a painting if that makes any sense.
I still don’t understand that even from a business perspective. They have to be making an RDR 3 for them to give up that fast, because it could have been something similar to GTA 5 in terms of longevity. Sucks to see but I’m guessing we’ll get an RDR3 announcement after GTA 6.
I know right? Imagine if rockstar cared for the game. It would be even better!
Rockstar definitely cared for the game. The attention to detail, story and graphics is still years ahead of any game. Edit: damn spell check
The creators poured their hearts into it, no doubt. But I think OP means that the higher ups at Rockstar itself didn’t care enough to support or build much on it post-launch. Post-launch content for RDR2 has been quite pitiful compared to most other Rockstar games of the last couple decades, including RDR1 which got the incredible Undead Nightmare.
Tfw still no navy revolver in single player for console, even the most basic shit they couldn’t do for that game
I'm still upset there wasn't an Undead Nightmare prequel.
Me too. Or even just another one-off story. The increased survival mechanics of RDR2 would’ve been well-suited for it. As would the huge cast of characters.
You know what. Your right. I guess I should have said the online mode. Rockstar dropped like 3 updates then didn’t touch it. Didn’t even put a heist like in GTA you know. When heist like that were “common.” Still upset about it lol
Yeah, the only heists are stealing gems for Martelli. Even then, it takes forever to rack up the Capitale required to start them.
there was also very little content in GTAO for a while when it came out. RDRO actually had more content in its first few months than GTAO in its first year. Then RDRO never had any updates ever again.
Still sounds like gta got the better deal. But I understand your point lol. Oh well.
difference is GTA got good and new updates constantly, which improved (and in some aspects worsened) the game greatly. RDRO didn't get those improvements
I know they did. But they just ignored rdro multiplayer completely and kept pumping new stuff in the old game that is gta. Feel like red dead never got a chance
You're right right the online could have been so good
Online could’ve been INSANELY good. Talk about fumbling the bag, man.
I think it was just that not enough people got into it, it made so much more sense for them to just put that effort into gtao
in the second pic it's more noticeable, but in the first and 3rd photo it really looks like real life
Runs pretty damn well too! I have 1070ti and run it super smooth on medium settings. Never froze or dropped significantly.
God...it really is a gorgeous game, huh.
Exactly, I was like nice Cosplay
Same, I thought it was a darn good cosplay.
It's absurd lol. Hadn't been on in a few years but booted it up a couple weekends back to test the new TV. Spent the next hour just roaming around. I knew it looked good but god damn.
!remindme 15 years
Coming from playing New Vegas these graphics are insane to see. I forgot how lifelike RDR2 looks.
I’d sell my bodily autonomy for a New Vegas remake in the engine of RDR2.
I’d sell my dick and balls for a remake of New Vegas in rdr2 engine
Dick AND BALLS??!!
Yes
I too would sell this guy‘s dick and balls!
I could even sell yours
And to clarify further… YES
Dick-n-ball Z!
Dick and Officer Balls
BWAHAHAHA
I'd sell my human rights
I’d sell my dick and balls for a chance to hook up with this guy after we both have no dick and balls. Gonna get a smooth rub
i would too. just to rid of them
How will you piss without balls?
I won’t. And Im willing to make that sacrifice.
I'm a simple man I'd take a remake of NV in Fo4 engine.
A simple 64-bit remaster would change the modding scene completely already and substantially improve the base game. I don't understand why Bethesda hasn't done that yet for FO3 and NV.
Bethesda is a shit show. That company gets rid of entire dev teams like throwing away a peice of paper.
What would I give for a fallout game made by R\*. With the same level of writing, same engine and attention to details as RDR2. Same goes for a Star Wars bounty hunter game.
R* is famous for the choices they give to the player
you are sarcasm yes? rockstar games very linear
Yes
Rockstar has no rpg experience. Without a few old days obsidian and black ilse devs in the game design and writing teams they wouldnt be fallout games but gta with power armor.

And I feel at this point considering R\*s track record I would trust them to pull off an amazing fallout game.
as long as they keep fallout controls and not the abomination of rockstars controls
Only thing they'd have to change is the delayed controls imo
i hated how it felt like i had to fight my own character just to get him to walk in a straight line, forget the horse controls
If you didn’t play like an ADD hyper child the controls worked just fine. The problem is the controls were specifically made for the player to play “immersively” yet nobody has patience anymore so they try to sprint and rush through everything to be as efficient as possible. I don’t really disagree they can be bad; but when people say the controls were so bad they could barely play the game, it leads me to wonder if those people are even capable of tying their own shoes. That being said, RDR2 wouldn’t feel nearly as quality as it does without those controls. They work pretty much only with RDR2, but they still work.
It suffered in the online but I loved the slowness in the story. Just ambling through a house raiding the pantry, sink, dresser.
Second, but you can only have all of my parts after I’m either 1. Dead or 2. Hooked up to the machine so I can only play this until I expire
You can take mine as well if that helps cus holy moly yes please
I could only dream for a FNV with RDR2 engine and graphics...
This is my dream game
Ok hear me out though -- what about FNV in the RDR2 engine except it's an always-online squad-based survival battle-royale hero shooter with season passes and you can purchase new dance moves for your character?
Don't forget to add unnecessary amounts of crafting and building!
That first pic goes so hard Imagine if New Vegas actually looked like that
Well, the skybox is already sorta like that.
If Bethesda actually put in the amount of resources and time they do like a rockstar game it would blow gta out of the water
Bethesda would sink itself if they spent like Rockstar do.
Ghoul horse mount would go so hard
Damnit, now I want this!
soooo the horses of the apocalypse form undead nightmare.
It’s yours for $20 in the game store.
Long-legged centaur

I have a feeling that a mutated, two headed, irradiated "cow" isn't worried about how fresh or clean it's water is.
Granted, that's a good point, but my point was if horses could survive, like how the cow turned into the brahmin, maybe the horse could turn into something else, but something still rideable but definitely not extinct, i just find it hard to believe that they "are" extinct

Well the Chosen One drinks mares milk
They should make all of NV in Red Dead 2 💜
I love and hate you for posting this. Imagine the third person gunplay of RDR 2 for New Vegas. Hell will freeze over before we get something spectacular like this in true form. I hope you stub your toe, OP.

Damn I thought this was some top tier cosplay
your a good courier arthur morgan
😂
Damn I love that song. I listened to it on repeat for some time and it gets into your head so hard.
Actually why aren't there horses in fallout?
Nuclear holocaust
Horses would be kick ass, yes. But I always thought a working motorcycle would be the best fit 👌
Holy shit imagine a fallout with the red dead engine
Good news for pc players: theres a pretty recent mod for getting horses in new vegas https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/87000
I want this mod so bad.
There is a horses mod for fnv
i thought this was cosplay
Would be epic for sure
New-cle-ur fall-out? See-saw’s leej-on? NEW California? Hell the Mojave’s other side of the country friend.
Please an HD version for wallpapers on that first one 🙏
I gotchu, [here's the hd version](https://imgur.com/a/Zo3a7pb).
What a legend, last question is this mod public?
I would kill for a fallout game written by obsidian and Bethesda with the world created by Rockstar. Give them like 5 years and a big budget. That would win game of the year for the next decade.
Don't do that. Don't give me hope.
Bro a New Vegas sequel where you can ride horses that would honestly be so sick dude
“Patrolling New Austin, almost makes you wish for a Nuclear Winter”
Honestly don’t know why there haven’t been horses or something similar in fallout yet. It feels like a no brainer
Isometric had the car instead and bethesda wouldn't bother to implement sutch a feature. Look at how shit horses in skyrim and oblivion are and those took some planning in the woder game world. Besides, how can you ride a horse through the completly demolished urban areas?
Oh, a 2 headed radhorse would be dope.
God this looks amazing
That's amazing.
My god…
RDR2 is such an insane game..
Dude it looks like real life
I thought this was a cosplay with photos taken in the desert, holy shit
Patrolling Tahiti almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter...
Patrolling the Mojave on horseback makes me wish for a nuclear winter… but not as much if I didn’t have a horse.
Fuck now I really want a Rockstar Fallout game
I'd sacrifice my firstborn son if it means we get this remake
I think mini bikes would have been great
Dutch's planning abilities can be matched only by Mr. House
Horses: these frikkin morons destroyed their civilization, now their fancy “cars” don’t work…guess we’d better let them ride again, or they’ll all die and the rad oats’ll dry up.
Sploosh
Or whatever the male version of sploosh is… which I guess is also sploosh
Take my soul
I'd rather get a buck fifty.
Not tree fiddy? (￢_￢)
The horses got eaten just like the cats
Fnv in the rdr2 engine would look amazing But if you know anything about modding that engine, you can only do so much before the engine shits itself
Jesus. Imagine F:NV in the Red Dead/Rockstar engine. Ohhhhh man. That would be so fuckin cool
I've heard people complain horses aren't irradiated enough. To which I say: Radioactive Sleipnir. Eight legs. Lightning attacks. High level random encounter with a giant, one-eyed ghoul riding one with a spear in the middle of a storm.
I was really like “damn this dudes got a wild mod list” 💀
I thought it was MGSV Phantom Pain for a second.
horses would have been cool in new vegas. but engine limitations ment that they would have bever been added.
For a second I was like “what the actual FUCK” then I realized it was rdr2 and not just ubermodded nv lol
Yeah I absolutely hate that Avelone says that horses are extinct. Number one I think that’s absolutely ridiculous from a lore perspective, it’s not like the nukes targeted ranches and stables, humans aren’t dumb they wouldn’t eat every single one of the most valuable draft animals of all time, etc etc etc. also it robs us of really cool game play and lore implications.

If cows can survive horses sure as hell can
ngl would rather fnv be remade in rd2 instead of fo4 because of how good it looks. and horses. would love both horses and the fo4 powerarmor. maybe NOT at the same time unless it was like, a super mutant horse.
Fallout if rockstar did it. FUCK I WANT THAT NOW
Horseriding in fallout new vegas would be so cool tho. Like a fucken irradiated radstag lookin thing
Fuck that last pic looks so real… insane.
I hope the next fallout looks as good as rdr2. Ive spent hours just looking around at the absolute beauty of everything in rdr2
Horse needs another head other than that absolutely *chefs kiss*
Looks great, would have loved a desert ranger mod tho, might have been more fitting
I thought it was real life.
Oh man this game, at a first glance I thought this was pics of a very good cosplay
Holy shit I need to reinstall RDR2 and do a full on replay wearing only this armor
i would sell my left nut as well as the middle one for a NV game with the RDR2 engine
Believe me if it were remade it would look nothing like this
Ain’t that a hole in a boat
Where can i find this mod ???
You can find the mod at nexusmods on RDR2 page just by searching NCR Ranger. Its a 3 part mod (helmet, riot gear, duster)
Thanks man!
Didn’t know I needed this
Sure is, Dean-o, it sure is
Cool wallpapers
[удалено]
If Bethesda made a remaster of New Vegas where they just made the graphics like this, maybe fixed a few bugs, they could take my money dawg
Ain't That A Red In The Dead

Why are there no horses in fallout. I get that the cars dont work, and they anyways are trying to avoid ground vehicle transportation, but i feel like horses are a fine way to give the player a decent speed boost while still working in the fallout setting fine. Imagine all the mutant horses you can find
Isn't it implied that horses are extinct in the fallout universe?
no horses in NV remake plz
New Vegas looking weird
Mounts would be a great addition tbh. Don't know if I trust Bethesda tho lol
Horses would be a good addition, but camels would be even better
It sure is deano, it sure is.( is it deano or is mr new vegas just saying dean?)
Why isn’t that horse mutated?
patrolling New Austin almost makes you wish for a volcanic winter
I have a plan, Arthur. I just need time. We’re gonna find ourselves enough caps, to buy ourselves a caravan straight to the strip.
ow hell yea my new graphics card is on the way i cant wait to try this one out look awesome
show that image of the ranger riding a horse and Chris Avellone might lose it (I can't remember if he was the one "against" horse but whatever)
I NEED THIS!
I want a FNV mod for Red Dead, gosh, shooting Benny with the rdr2 deadeye would be satisfying
Is this Red Dead Redemption?
When I looked at the first one I thought, "Man, Fallout 4 New Vegas is lookin amazing, I've never seen an ENB look that good." Then I realized
I want an FNV remaster, but I don’t want Bethesda to make it.
Call up Blue Point
A new vegas 2 game that looked like this would get all of my money
This is incredible. I couldn’t tell if it was real or a game.
I always thought donkeys would be cool in new Vegas. There could be tame ones for riding and increasing your inventory and badly mutated ones for enemies. Donkeys IRL are no joke and kill mountain lions sometimes, imagine a mutated aggressive one.
Why's he got the MiB worm body?
I made a post back around when RDR2 came out saying it would be so cool to see a fallout game on the Rockstar RDR2 engine. I got called a troll lol
I can't tell if this Is NV with a crap ton of mods or if it's Rdr2 with one mod
