Poll of the Day > What percentage of gamers didn't like Red Dead Redemption

(+) Yeah! (+)

I will be honest, I know I am in the extreme minority with this one, but I really didn't care for Red Dead Redemption. I suspect I am in the 7-10 percent minority on this one.

I am doing this primarily because of all of the hype around the coming release of Red Dead Redemption 2. I anticipate this game to be, given the wild popularity of Red Dead Redemption, a huge seller next year and a likely goty nominee.

With that being said, I have to say I didn't care for Red Dead Redemption. I thought the story was decent, but I really felt no affinity for John Marsden. I guess my dislike of the game stems from my disinterest in the "Western" genre really. Though, I will admit that it's an era that there probably should be more games for.

All of that's really irrelevant though. I am more interested in hearing from gamefaqers about how "common" or "uncommon" it has been for them to encounter someone who didn't really like the franchise.

I personally only know two others who didn't love the game besides myself.

Has a user score of 9.0 and 8.9 out of 10.

Probably my favorite game from last gen. Really looking forward to the next one, but I'm hoping they're not going to skimp on the singleplayer to focus on a GTA Online-like version of RDR. Don't care for GTA Online at all.

20-40 percent probably.

I think 20 but since there's 2 options for that I just picked 5-20. I personally don't give a fuck about it since I don't like GTA nor westerns.

Most people I've met have only praise for the game. I don't ever really hear about people disliking it. I have met some who are indifferent. Personally, I think it's a good game. Didn't play it much myself, though.

I am pretty much in the same boat. The only game Rockstar has ever put out that I liked is L.A Noire. I haven't played Bully, so I can't really speak to that, but I have played a couple of GTAs and Red Dead Redemption, didn't care for them.
