Red Dead Redemption gets an RDR 2 makeover with Reality Redemption 3.0 Hallie Frederick | usagoldmines.com

In the event you’re nonetheless scratching your stubbly chin about how a 14-year outdated sport can come to Steam with a $50 price ticket, then maintain scratching, as a result of we won’t justify that for you. Then again, there is not any query that since Crimson Lifeless Redemption landed on Steam a few months in the past, PC has change into the definitive approach to play Rockstar’s western basic (although apparently it’s not half-bad on the Asus ROG Ally X either). And an enormous a part of that’s the truth that it may well now be modded till the cows come residence.

Modders have wasted no time in getting caught in both, with 335 Red Dead Redemption mods available on Nexus Mods right now. By far the most well-liked and sweeping of those is the Reality Redemption Overhaul Project, which matches a protracted approach to giving the sport that ‘RDR 2’ really feel. The mod has simply entered its 3.0 iteration, which packs in practically 4 GB value of high-res textures and character fashions, in addition to improved reflections, physics, draw distances, particle results, and plenty of many different enhancements. It appears to be like prefer it’s acquired a Reshade too, with vibrant colors punctuating that iconic distinction of the excessive desert’s coppery panorama with the blue skies above it. 

Trying on the footage, it appears to be like like a complete different proposition to the gristly sport I performed on the PlayStation 3 again in 2010.

The mod goes past simply the graphics too, and makes varied tweaks particularly aimed toward bringing the unique extra in keeping with Crimson Lifeless 2. The digicam behaviour has been adjusted to resemble the sequel’s tighter, extra cinematic perspective, and the climate system is within the means of being overhauled to be extra dynamic, with improved time cycles, lighting, and cloud variations and shadows.

The minds behind Actuality Redemption are seemingly removed from executed. The mod has a protracted to-do listing, together with a work-in-progress entry aimed toward “Updating the sport’s lore with new textures, dialogue, and subtitles.” Sounds nice! Now, if Rockstar would simply deign to chop Crimson Lifeless Redemption’s PC worth in half, then I’d simply be compelled to saddle up and revisit John Marston’s stomping floor (and by that I don’t mean his OnlyFans page) as soon as extra.
