That's RDR2 online. It is even sold separately.

RDR2 the game is truly a masterpiece and indeed feels like a labour of love and passion. RDR2 online is shit and flopped hard.

RDR2 though released 5 years ago now (4 on PC), how did it end up on ANY kind of list for the best games of 2023?

Don't get me wrong, it's an amazing game, I just don't understand why it would be included alongside 2023 releases.

The whole point of that category is games that weren't released this year...

This game has been out for a while. The team is well past the debut of their creative baby, but being the good parents they are, these devs continue to nurture and support their creation. This game, to this day, is still getting new content after all these years.

Other Finalists: Rust, Apex Legends, Dota 2, Deep Rock Galactic

LMAO which is even more hilarious. Has ANY new single-player content been added since launch? I've played through the game at least a half-dozen times over the years and don't recall anything new.

But even under these guidelines it fails. This game hasn't been touched since launch. Even the online spin off hasn't been touched in years and everyone complains about the bugs and the cheaters that are running rampant because Rockstar abandoned this.
