I still think about a lot a game that

00:30

had a big city impact on my delicate

00:32

small town frame is Grand Theft Auto 4

00:35

I'm one of the many insane people that

00:36

actively choose to live in this giant

00:38

rat hole of a city and GTA 4 is a big

00:41

reason for that get the I am obsessed

00:44

with the scope and detail of the

00:46

architecture the super dramatic lighting

00:48

the blea compact The Psychotic physics

00:50

engine and the craziest part actual New

00:53

York feels a lot like that well not the

00:55

physics engine part but how did Rockstar

00:58

do that how did they condense the

00:59

atmosphere of this massive City onto a

01:02

single Xbox 360 DVD while still having

01:05

it possess that intangible how you say

01:08

Jenny sequa that's that's not even GTA 4

01:11

that's Halo 5 that singular question

01:14

defines what I love the most about

01:16

Rockstar Games games and I think it's

01:18

why I keep making like a billion videos

01:20

about them Rockstar's game design is

01:22

outdated might forever be the most

01:24

viewed thing on my channel and I am very

01:26

okay with that I'm really proud of that

01:28

video and I stand by just about

01:29

everything I brought up including but

01:31

not limited to the busted ass wanted

01:33

system and a series of incredibly linear

01:35

missions that treat you like a child

01:37

with no brain or functioning thumbs but

01:40

at the same time Red Dead 2 has been

01:42

squatting in my abandoned mind cottage

01:44

for the better part of the past 6 years

01:46

and I think it's because I also stand by

01:48

other things I said like how this game

01:49

has some of the best writing of any

01:51

piece of fiction I've ever consumed and

01:53

that it looks and sounds like God much

01:55

like how GTA 4 captures the distinct

01:57

feeling of being in New York Dead 2

02:00

captures Jenny Bayan qua for the

02:03

American wilderness that I personally

02:05

know while also capturing something so

02:07

beyond what I could ever know that push

02:09

and pull of loving something so much yet

02:11

being so frustrated by it this game had

02:14

to be more than just a busted wanted

02:16

system or thumbless child simulator

02:18

right Blu-ray discs are big as hell and

02:21

this game came on two of them so you bet

02:23

your ass they could fit a lot of real

02:24

estate on these Hogs after revisiting

02:26

this Titanic game this time powered by

02:29

my Titanic computer which is in turn

02:31

powered by six Titanic Sega Dreamcast in

02:34

a human centipede type formation I'd

02:36

love to share with you what I discovered

02:38

while returning to Red Dead Redemption

02:40

[Music]

02:58

2

03:10

okay Red Dead Redemption 2 Remains the

03:12

most beautiful game I have ever seen and

03:14

that surprised no one everything about

03:16

the art design is straight up surgical

03:18

the insane level of detail that grazes

03:21

every millimeter of this colossal map

03:23

the precise historical authenticity that

03:26

touches even the dinki of objects the

03:28

romanticized dream realism that somehow

03:31

drenches everything in the most

03:32

beautiful lighting at all times it has

03:35

and will continue to blow my back out

03:38

watching a long ass GDC talk about how

03:39

much work went into just the horses the

03:41

horse animations alone had me like two

03:44

more videos about horses from becoming a

03:46

horse girl but oh my God playing on PC

03:49

made me never want to look at a PS4

03:51

again get out of my room Sony

03:54

Pony this game doesn't only somehow look

03:58

even better but it feels feels way

04:00

better too there's still a considerable

04:02

amount of input delay when doing

04:03

anything just cuz that's how Rockstar

04:04

intended like you're puppeteering a

04:06

hefty bag of Flesh and Bones versus

04:08

flicking around a super responsive super

04:10

soldier but a high frame rate helps a

04:12

lot to make just about every interaction

04:14

feel smoother side note the fact that

04:16

they still haven't released any sort of

04:17

nextg update for PS5 that does like 4K

04:20

60 even after they've already

06:05

think I think he was I think he was

06:07

saying something now because this is on

06:08

PC now and I've already played this game

06:10

a ton my devious white ass was

06:12

immediately like okay is there a mod to

06:14

skip the longest intro screen known to

06:16

man cuz booting this game up takes

06:18

forever and then I saw it I saw the

06:21

massive list of other mods available and

06:24

much like a very gaslit romantic partner

06:27

I softly whispered to myself I can fix

06:30

him I knew I wouldn't ever be able to

06:32

change how restrictive and boring so

06:34

many of the game's linear missions were

06:36

that [ __ ] was set in stone but what if I

06:38

could address all of the other issues I

06:39

had outside of the missions and this is

06:42

when Mommy went off the deep end loot

06:44

everything fast as [ __ ] buy a house rob

06:46

a bank spin your gun crazy hair crazy

06:48

ragd dolls dog companion after

06:50

installing so many different mods mods

06:52

to try and fix the inconsistently broken

06:55

wanted system mods to fix how busted the

06:57

in-game economy is mods that let me

06:59

fight the annoying ass kids in Sandy I

07:01

stopped myself I was doing too much I

07:03

realized that if the purpose of this

07:05

experiment was to revisit and reevaluate

07:08

a piece of art I should probably try to

07:10

keep it in its originally intended pure

07:13

vanilla state right totally totally yes

07:16

totally yes um but also maybe I keep a

07:21

few of

07:22

[Music]

07:25

them okay so Arthur has three speeds

07:28

right walking running by holding a and

07:30

full mashing a sprinting there's no

07:33

middle ground between crawling and

07:34

blasting off so navigating tight SPAC is

07:37

always annoyed the piss out of me but

07:38

let me also just say this per chance

07:40

there is already an in between speed

07:42

that exists in the game but only when

07:45

you're fast walking around Camp fast

07:47

walking outside of camp lets you use

07:48

that brisk walk anywhere you want I know

07:50

this may not sound like that big of a

07:52

deal but oh my God if you have played

07:54

the game as much as I have you know that

07:56

this is actually kind of a huge deal

07:57

Arthur felt so much easier to Puppeteer

08:00

once I had the option to move just a bit

08:02

more urgently moving around combat

08:04

Arenas and not having to either slowly

08:06

walk or sloppily Sprint in between cover

08:08

even leading your horse around feels so

08:10

much better and I did it way more now

08:11

that I didn't have to Tiptoe Through The

08:13

Window shout out to corvo for making

08:15

this mod it caused like zero issues with

08:17

my playthrough and it's actually

08:18

incredible on controller you could still

08:20

do the slow walk you just half press the

08:21

mouse and keyboard you can use the push

08:23

to talk button and toggle between the

08:24

two walks you guys are Gamers you'll

08:25

figure it out okay so in general this

08:27

game heavily leans into a more grounded

08:30

Vibe with all of its realistic

08:31

animations right cooking a steak one by

08:34

one opening a cabinet drawer by drawer

08:36

slowly skinning an animal with an

08:38

unskippable animation and then slow

08:40

walking its massive Pelt to your horse

08:42

it's very clear that Rockstar really

08:43

wants you to slow down and truly feel

08:46

like you're living in Arthur's custom

08:48

crafted immersive moccasin 350s but a

08:51

big thing I complained about before is

08:52

that when it comes to other things like

08:54

the weather or your portable Camp the

08:56

game just goes realism Frost my ass I

08:58

hate her I don't I don't don't [ __ ]

08:59

know her 90% of the time it doesn't

09:01

really matter what clothes you're

09:02

wearing unless you go up into the snowy

09:04

mountain section part of the map you can

09:06

essentially go the majority of the game

09:08

wearing the same outfit whether it's 90°

09:10

in the swampy south or 45° in the Dakota

09:14

comma South I remember this felt like

09:16

such a missed opportunity because the

09:17

outfit crafting in this game is actually

09:19

Immaculate and you can pair layers with

09:22

other layers to achieve in theory

09:23

varying layers of warmth but again the

09:26

vanilla game doesn't really do much with

09:28

any of this humidity and temperature

09:29

overhaul by Bowman 70 fixes all of that

09:32

the middle symbol on this new core

09:33

changes color when you're not optimally

09:35

dressed for the current weather and if

09:37

you're not optimally dressed it will

09:38

slowly start to drain your health and

09:40

stamina cords this could mean needing

09:41

more layers of warmth in the chilly

09:43

Woods versus wearing less layers in the

09:45

soupy swamp the outside ring is your

09:46

current resistance to any harsh weather

09:48

so putting on a hat to Shield yourself

09:50

from beaming sunlight or hard rain

09:52

strengthens the ring regardless of what

09:54

you're wearing though if you get caught

09:55

in the storm your clothes are going to

09:57

get wet and that ring is going to drain

09:58

no matter what but going into a warm

10:00

interior to find shelter or standing

10:02

near any sort of heat Source actively

10:04

changes your temperature and heats your

10:06

ring back up this mod automatically

10:07

turns off during missions so that it

10:09

doesn't cause any problems too which is

10:10

great but in the open world it feels

10:12

like such a natural immersive addition

10:14

to the existing realism formula that

10:16

Rockstar was already going with that I

10:18

seriously can't imagine playing the game

10:20

without it now watching a storm from

10:22

inside your tent feels way more cozy and

10:24

grounded and immersive when the Rin

10:26

actually has an effect on the player and

10:28

speaking of camp

10:29

I hated how the vanilla Camp system

10:31

worked back in 2018 and it still Frost

10:34

my ass I hated how it automatically

10:36

teleported you to a predestined location

10:38

I hated how the rain did not affect your

10:40

ability to make a fire I hated how

10:42

sensitive the perimeters were of when

10:44

and where you could spawn your magic

10:45

teleporting camp the camp anywhere mod

10:47

does not fix all of these issues but it

10:49

certainly validates a lot of my

10:51

complaints and desires it's exactly what

10:53

it sounds like a custom menu that lets

10:55

you spawn either your whole camp or

10:57

individual elements of a camp wherever

10:59

you want want oh you found the most

11:00

gorgeous view and you want to put your

11:01

tent in that exact spot talk your [ __ ]

11:03

arur oh you want to build a fire right

11:05

by a frozen lake while you're fishing so

11:06

that you can immediately cook any giant

11:08

fishies that you catch without having to

11:10

teleport away to an entire Camp just to

11:12

cook them and also standing next to the

11:13

fire is in perfect Synergy with the

11:15

weather mod I was just talking about

11:17

what the hell this is the best day of my

11:18

life I think you get why I love this mod

11:20

so much camp anywhere makes exploring

11:23

this [ __ ] beautiful Majestic world

11:25

just a tad more engaging because it's

11:27

one more choice that the player gets to

11:29

make make for themselves a choice

11:30

capable of creating magical emergent

11:33

moments that feel so much more personal

11:35

pitching your horse to any tree is a

11:37

feature that is already in the game so

11:39

picking a specific spot to settle down

11:41

with your precious boy or girl feels

11:44

Supernatural but again this mod is not

11:46

perfect dude camp anywhere really said

11:48

camp anywhere for better or worse hey

11:51

this is my genuine

11:54

reaction I didn't I didn't know that

11:58

guys would actually get into your tent

12:00

that's that's incredible I can see how

12:02

Rockstar landed on the solution they did

12:04

of having pre-selected places for the

12:06

player to set up their Camp to avoid

12:07

Shenanigans like this but I still think

12:09

a middle ground definitely could have

12:11

been achieved at least like letting you

12:12

manually place down a fire or a bed roll

12:15

in way more places I'm not saying you

12:17

even got to chop wood or anything to

12:18

make a fire even though that's already

12:20

kind of in the game too jk LOL LOL I'm

12:22

sorry I'm

12:24

sorry but am I sorry sadly the campfires

12:27

built using this mod can't ever have the

12:30

grill attachment that you can get that

12:31

lets you cook like the oregano special

12:33

meat and it doesn't let you fast travel

12:35

like the vanilla portable Camp does now

12:37

if you upgrade to have fast travel at

12:39

the main gangs Camp which that was not

12:41

in the game originally and is an amazing

12:43

addition and also it makes upgrading the

12:45

gang's Camp actually matter a bit more

12:48

now because before if you upgraded it

12:50

and you got fast travel it's like cool I

12:51

can fast travel from the camp but you're

12:52

still having to go back there all the

12:53

time if you played the game you know

12:55

what I'm talking about but shout out to

12:56

cross 99 for making this mod if you see

12:58

this and you could pretty please somehow

13:00

add the grill and the Fast Travel

13:02

function to this mod I'll name my

13:04

firstborn cross 99 and it'll pick and

13:06

roll my ass and cross me up and break my

13:08

cankles you may have noticed that I'm

13:10

wearing a lot of stuff that says ball

13:11

creative or ball or has you know some

13:14

[ __ ] on the back or something that's

13:16

because it's my new company that I

13:18

started it's basically the creative

13:20

umbrella for all future creative

13:23

projects whether that's music or videos

13:25

or merch or uh eventually and not

13:27

anytime soon don't get your hopes up but

13:29

video games if you're

13:33

[Music]

13:34

interested okay real quick one more mod

13:36

is selling guns by Bullman 70 Jesus

13:38

Christ this guy is really crushing the

13:40

mod game Rockstar updated the game to

13:41

have a weapon Locker at the main Camp

13:43

which is amazing because now you can

13:44

finally organize the billions of guns

13:47

but Arthur can sometimes still pick up

13:48

guns that you can't then put into the

13:50

weapon Locker so they just get stuck in

13:52

your inventory and it's annoying as [ __ ]

13:53

with the mod you can go up to this guy

13:55

and sell whatever guns you want and just

13:56

get them out of your inventory and it's

13:57

amazing okay mod mods mods we get it bro

14:00

you're a Discord kitten manager get on

14:03

with it clearly these mods were a very

14:05

important part of my return trip and

14:08

improved my experience by base boosting

14:11

mechanics that were already in the game

14:13

but really they were the Catalyst to

14:14

truly enjoy and Savor all of the things

14:17

that the game has already possessed

14:19

since 2018 what it started as I can fix

14:22

him eventually turned into he can fix

14:28

me

14:29

[Music]

14:34

I played the everliving [ __ ] out of this

14:36

game back when it dropped in 2018 just

14:38

like everyone else did and even with all
