->Well, I managed to get through the story of ''VideoGame/RedDeadRedemption2'', and I have to say, I'm quite shook; possibly the emotional impact, more likely from delirium tremens. Didn't have a single moment to myself; Saturday afternoon, I was like, "Oh boy! I finally reached the epilogue! Maybe I'll actually have Sunday free to relax on!" Eight hours of additional story later, "Fuck me, my definitions are out of date! I had no idea that 'epilogue' now means 'entire second game'!"

->A good story is like a good bowel movement: it's only really satisfying once it's ended, because if you just keep going eventually your body runs out of shit and moves on to pushing all your internal organs out your sphincter until only a foul smelling shell remains and anyone who wants to get into your incredibly long poo gets turned off because they have to go through all the poo up until that point to have the [[SophisticatedAsHell necessary context.]]
-->--'''[[Creator/BenCroshaw Yahtzee Croshaw]]'''

->They managed to write in a few smart jabs about what a [[PyrrhicVictory shallow, pointless, and purely emotional victory]] it actually was. Lucky Quinn lived [[KarmaHoudini a long and comfortable life]] as a mob boss, while [[HeroWithBadPublicity Aiden's years are surely numbered]] since the whole city (on both sides of the law) are after him. So you also get some nice food for thought while you make your way through a crazy-difficult cop chase that [[FinalExamBoss tests everything you've learned]] up to that point. That hotel mission, from beginning to end, is an explosive blaze of glory that explains everything you need to know about [[BookEnds the revenge story that begins the game]] -- but does not ''end'' the game.\\\
Just when you escape from those cops, the game suddenly remembers all those ''other'' characters it brought up earlier, and it does a much sloppier rush job of wrapping up their arcs... This game just keeps going and going. It doesn't even wanna stop when it's ''halfway through the credits!'' It would've been fine -- it would've been stronger! -- if they'd wrote in the ending when the ''actual'' climax and the ''actual'' {{final boss}} happened. But it keeps going for like an hour after that, and it just gets harder to take it seriously the longer that climax goes on. It's like the quality of the game climbed up a really high flight of stairs toward the end, and then someone kicked it right back down.
