As someone who played it on ps4 already, I don't think I will buy it again. Not really enough to make me want to buy it again. The online isn't really anything special at the moment. And this is coming from someone who bought GTA V on xbox 360, xbox one, and PC. LOL.

I'm also not that much interested, but totally want to see is after mods start to show up how much things could happen to the game...

Red Dead Redemption 2's PC enhancements will allow for "deeper immersion", and include increased, higher quality global illumination and ambient occlusion (which improves the game's day and night lighting), improved reflections and higher resolution shadows, tessellated tree textures, improved grass and fur textures, plus higher quality snow trails.
It will also support HDR, multi-monitor configurations, and widescreen configurations, as well as increased frame rates and resolutions - including 4K

And as I previously posted install size will be 150gb

MY GODDAMN WALLET AAAAAAA 2019 WHY

piracy

piracy

That has lost its appeal to me. I know I commit to a game more when it is bought, and it is appreciated more as well. Not to mention, achievements and trading cards are nifty stuff.

Yep this is wher nintendo are fools- adding a trophy like system will decrease piracy plus as you said playing for trophys adds extra challenges to the game
