I can't see it happening. They seem to be putting all effort into developing RDR Online now. Such a shame. There's so many stunning vistas in the game that would look that much better with proper HDR.

Prior to release, I semi-seriously thought about replacing my 3yo PS4 with a PS4 Pro - just so that I could enjoy the HDR in RDR2 on our new 4K OLED TV.

I didn’t do it because I couldn’t justify it to myself (let alone to anyone else) - and now I’m really glad I didn’t.

Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

I'm on my second run through (it's late, just stopped for the night).

The first time through I all but ignored the Legendary Animals / picking herbs etc.

This time I'm trying to get as much as I can. The thing that bugs the living crap out of me is being forced to go and get money off Mr Downes... when I know the consequence of doing so.

I dislike how I'm forced into that particular story arc, but then again, so will most people!!

Still, it's easily the best plot in any game I've played. Graphics are good 'for a console' (XBox One) but I have more issues with the dialogue being too low even when Arthur is positioned directly in front of the protagonist, yet other times it's perfect... just buggy.

Top tip, do all the treasure maps - money is goooood.

Spoilers.....

Yep I have to agree about Downes. I felt like I was just hitting my stride with the game when that happened, and then the rest of the game I was constantly struggling against that plot. I can see why they did it, and it does make for an interesting arc, but I wish that'd done it closer to the back 1/4 of the game so I had more time to feel like I was a nicely levelled badass bandit.

I bought it on release, played it for a week, then haven't touched it since. I find it really slow and have been enjoying Spiderman and God of War too much. Maybe one day I will get back into it....one day.

I played it for more than a week, basicallly until something I wanted to actually play came along. Since then it's been Spider-man, JC4 and expansions. I really wanted to love it, but I guess one day I'll feel in the mood for it again and finish it.
