Ohhhhhh yeah. On my phone so can't really effort post this one. Saw it on Rockstar's official Twitter.

Destiny 2 on PC is pretty fun and free, the only game in recent years to interrupt my dota IV.

Have you played it on console at all?

nope. Do I need to have played original RDR to get what's going on?

It's a prequel so there's only a couple of little nods to "future" events.

Also I love the timing of this, I was just getting the itch to play through RDR2 again but I'll hold off for a month and do it with better framerate and graphics.

Nope it could probably even be beneficial going in blind and playing RDR as a sequel at some point.

A mod group has already announced it will be making a framework for RDR 2 on PC. So if your into Custom servers and Roleplaying, it will be great.

What do you guys reckon?
Buy direct from Rockstarr app or wait a month and get on Steam?
Basically everything I've bought is on Steam.
But torn on what I should do.
Cheers

If you want it on Steam @rrrocket just buy it there. If it helps though, Steam will launch R*s new launcher before you can actually play the game.

I too need to ‘get over’ my need to have all the things on Steam. It’s seriously expensive... (R* are doing some promos to kick off their new launcher)

@IVY_Mike I'm happy to purchase on Rockstar store.
Like you I need to 'get over' my need to have all games on Steam too.

Since on Steam it launches the Rockstar launcher when launching the game may as well just buy on Rockstar.

Will mods work as per normal if not on steam?

PC trailer is out -
