It might seem like a given considering what kind of game Red Dead Redemption 2, a Western style action-adventure game with single and multiplayer features, but it will have a slower pace compared to Grand Theft Auto V. Given the era in which it takes place, the Wild West of America in 1899, it was a different time then.

According to RockstarIntel, “the game has a much slower pace in comparison to Grand Theft Auto V because it will ‘play like a western.'” Aside from that, GTA V takes place in the modern world where fast cars, clubs, and turf wars took place. Plus, it’s an entirely different type of game. Red Dead Redemption 2 on the other hand has two main mode of transportation – horseback and walking – aside from larger modes of transit like carriages and trains. Unsurprisingly, the community is okay with this:
