Red Dead Redemption 2 is coming to PC on November 5th

This is funny!

Two days ago I broke down and bought an Xbox One X after YEARS of refusing to buy another console ( My last one was a 360 circa 2008 ) because I'd gone full on PCMR.

The prospect of being able to finally play Red Dead II was one of the deciding factors in my purchase.

Sigh.

Oh well.

Truth be told - while it's only been a couple of days I am enjoying the One X regardless. The fact that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate covers the console and PC both for around $15 a month feels like a good deal and the console performs better than I expected. I was worried about input lag and responsiveness - but so far it seems on par with my PC ( 3700X / Vega 56 ).

Still - I laugh because this is how my luck / karma tends to work. Buy a console on Tuesday to play Red Dead II, read this thread on Friday.

If you don't have a smart TV, it helps a lot on that end.

Also, if you're playing a game and want some teammates, you can go to looking for group and post small ads. On popular games, you'll get requests in under five minutes, and it's all through the user interface and you can just invite them. You can even say adults only, mic required, must be x level or we're doing _____. Most people adhere to those requirements.

It's no pc, but if it didn't break the bank, hopefully you'll find some use for it.

Also, for games Red Dead where you want more of a cinematic experience... You might actually get more of that if you have a big 4k TV... Probably one of the few upsides against a pc in all reality.

This will consist of new bounty hunting missions, gang hideouts, weapons, and "more." Red Dead Online will also be included with all of the content available in the PS4 and Xbox One versions.

I've got the CPU and RAM to cope with it but will find out next week if my 1060 is still up to the job to give me the shiny.

The world of Red Dead PC style.
