RDR2 is as close as it gets to a perfect game. Rockstar will never outdo it. And it's unlikely anyone else will for a good while yet.
It's a masterpiece.
Except... for the combat. By the end of the game, they need 50 bad guys to even pose a challenge to our Max Paine protagonist. But not in the cut scene, of course. By mid-game, you've killed more cowboys than cholera.
There is a beautiful quick-draw mechanic that's only necessary in 2 (optional) side quests.
