Red Dead Redemption 1. 2 I unfortunately was never able to get into.

Some chase sequence where I shot my own horse in the back of the head, he immediately faceplants and throws me like 20 feet and land on my head and break my neck. "Fuck joystick aiming." I still haven't picked it back up. Maybe the PC port will do it for me, idk

I had this exact same experience. The idea if RDR didn't dry much for me b so I ignored it. One day I saw "gold edition", or whatever the one with all the DLC and expansions included, for like $15. Thought "why not".

Took a while to play it, but when I did I was hooked. Even the, at first, seemingly ham fisted undead expansion was really fun.

RDR2 I got at launch, played it almost immediately, but never really got more than half a dozen hours in before realising I was just going through the motions

2 was just so slow compared to 1. I know they were going for ultra realism, but it made it not fun for me.

Yeah, I couldn't nail it on the head but by the time I got to the more free play open world part I was just like "I don't really know what I want to do... And I don't care"

Might have been that, at that time, I'd burnt out on open works sandboxy games

I remember I was playing Assassin's Creed Odyssey around the time I tried RDR2 and I was hooked on the former. I'm just not patient enough for it, I suppose.
