The expanded side post, ‘Questions for Cowboys’, a series of questions he’d like to ask everyone who praised Red Dead Redemption 2 + his response to them, hits the nail on the head harder than any other take on the game: http://tevisthompson.com/questions-for-cowboys/ …https://twitter.com/carolynmichelle/status/1111706146622988288 …

Yeah it’s not people liking Red Dead 2 which rankles me - people can like what they want - it’s the bizarre degree of critical consensus, especially given how divisive it’s proven out in the wild. Especially given how many 9/10 reviews I read which overall seemed pretty negative?

The bad assumption at play in games criticism IMO is that the degree to which it’s a technical achievement, the sheer scale and (surface) detail, the absurd number of man hours poured into it, has inherent worth and means that “objectively” you can’t give it a negative review.
