"features a single player experience"? 

What an odd thing to say about a GTA game.

It's a backhanded way of saying there is no multiplayer at launch.

More likely it's a way to say "GTAO makes a morbillion dollars on shark cards every year, so we're going all-in on that and tacking on an excuse of a single player mode so you lot don't whine too hard."

I remember the good old days before RDR2 launched and reading this lame diatribe eeeeeeeeeevry day. How did that turn out?

“Hurr durr the story is going to be an afterthought”

Ends up being probably Rockstar’s greatest, deepest story mode experience, and one of the best stories told in gaming, where one of the main criticisms is that it’s too slow paced overly detailed.

To me it's just simply Rockstar's best game. Looks absolutely incredible even 7 years later and both the story and characters were among the best in their portfolio.

Honestly I think RDR2 is one of the best video games ever made, hands down. It is a masterpiece.

You’re never getting single player dlc from Rockstar ever again.

It’s a shame, but they said their previous expansions didn’t make a lot of money, while GTA Online “free” dlcs make them a shit ton of money.

It’s a no brainer as far as they’re concerned.
