For those who don't have it, of course RDR2 is great and very fun (the intro/tutorial is a little boring though fyi)

I know I won't be the only one wondering about this, so is the ultimate edition worth the extra $4? I know at original prices the extra missions and stuff were probably not worth it but at only $4, it makes more sense, right?

I just looked into this when I purchased on Steam the other day. Standard was $15, Ultimate $20. I went with the Standard, the extras aren't worthwhile for single player mode.

I almost turned it off from the first two boring hours in the snow.

Now, a short *mumblemumblehundredsmumble* hours between this and RDO later, I know it's probably the greatest video game I've played.

Quote :
Free Access to Additional Weapons: Free access, with no additional charges, to the Volcanic Pistol, Pump Action Shotgun and Lancaster Varmint Rifle weapons from Gunsmiths in Red Dead Online.

Rank Bonuses: Allows faster ranking in Red Dead Online up to rank 25.

Content Included In Other Editions: All the other Story Mode bonuses found in the cheaper editions, including the Bank Robbery Mission and bonus Gang Hideout, the Dappled Black Thoroughbred, the Nuevo Paraiso Gunslinger Outfit, the 3 Free Weapons at Gunsmiths, bonus Medallions and Talismans, and finally all the gameplay bonuses are also included.
Skipped some cosmetic stuff you won't miss. Nice horse is nice, but not really important.

The ranking faster is a waste imo. Rank 25 ain't that high and all it does is unlock cosmetic stuff. Unless it makes profession ranking (vs general ranking) faster too… but again, not a big deal if you enjoy the game.

Access to weapons early in RDO is not important at all imo. They unlock quickly and you start with a decent fast reloading repeater.

I can't recall if I played the bank dlc. I think so… but if there's a bank robbery in the standard game then I'm confusing them. I think there must be one in standard… it has a major plot point.

Can someone confirm and say if the additional mission is any good? That's the only potential value there, I think. 2¢ etc

edit:

Nope, not standard. I have played that. Here's a hint to value: The walkthrough is under six minutes with travel. Takes a little longer the first time, but you won't miss it if you want to buy a grande at your local coffeehouse today. 😉

Here's the walkthrough for the bank robbery that is in standard. It's more fun.

Spoilers!!

Not positive but I believe no it's not a steam code. If you look at the DRM options it's not listed.

Ah, this is exactly what I was wondering. I was about to check if GFN had it or not. It's a pity they don't after all this time.

If you enjoy using Dual Shock 4 controller, I would avoid. Huge mess trying to get it to work which was a shame cause Stadia version worked really well, had the button icons and everything.

Any thoughts on whether to go for Epic DRM or Rockstar Social Club DRM?

Bought this on Epic and still have to go through Rockstar launcher to launch game so I'm going to assume you always have Rockstar DRM
