Yea I remember hearing it was due to a backlash. However I don't recall a single person ever complaining about the LRG CE PC version.
Where is the backlash LRG has been saying exists, is what I would love to know?
I believe the backlash was due to the game being exclusive to EGS. There were rumors that the Kickstarter physical PC version was a box with no disc just a code. It's now been confirmed that the physical PC version will come with a disc, but there will be no game data on the disc just the Epic Games launcher.
The Limited Run PC version made no sense to begin with.
Selling an EGS disc/ launcher goes against the very idea behind the company, which is to offer completely physical versions of games to players who want to avoid digital content.
Now…had they been offering a 9 disc PC version in addition to all those other physical goodies… THAT would’ve been awesome (hoping they might in the future); as things stand, however, it only made sense to axe the PC version altogether.
Hey, whatever it takes to get more eyes on Shenmue 3.
Call me optimistic but, Rdr2 is basically cowboy shenmue so what if this plays into indirectly bolstering interest since S3 is the godfather of RDr2's concept/formulae? It'd be a good timing for this marketing angle no?
Compelling.
I think I've also read it's because of the way he picks up and rotates stuff in his hand like in Shenmue. Or something, I don't play western developed games for the most part so I don't actually know what goes on in RDR2.People compare it to Shenmue because the gameplay, outside the shooting, is extremely slow for a big budget Western game. It’s also nowhere near as good as Shenmue.
I mean, I seen a lot of weird comparaisons with Shenmue. Yakuza, Sleeping Dogs. But Red Dead Redemption ? :"")
C'mon people. The only common point between those two games is... there's side activities to do.
The kind of games, the atmosphere, everything else is completly different. If not opposite.
