Why I can’t wait for Red Dead Redemption 2

Rockstar Games released a teaser video of Red Dead Redemption 2 this morning, showing beautiful vistas of the Wild West.

It’s a sequel to Red Dead Redemption, the smash-hit, open world game from Rockstar that debuted in May 2010. I’m looking forward to this game because Red Dead Redemption had superb characters in hero John Marston (voiced by Rob Wiethoff) and a story that was epic in scope across 30-plus hours. It’s one of my favorite games of all time, in part because of its great story and ending.
