Sim Redemption 2
I grew up with real-time strategy games and city building simulators. There’s something so satisfying about ruling over a township in Sim City 2000‘s birds-eye view or commanding an entire army inKKnD or Total Annihilation. This mod for Red Dead Redemption 2taps into that.
The channel Red Dead Online Guides managed to use the tilt shift effect (as well as modding and some clever editing) to create a version of its world that looks like a “toy town out of Cities Skylinesor another Simgame). It’s a simple and relaxing video that showcases a day in the life of a typical Red Dead citizen, with the hustle and bustle of the city and the quaintness of rural, idyllic life.
Clocking in at just over a minute, the miniature world could be considered an open world case study of its own, and showcases just how packed and full of life this universe really is. I think my favorite shot is 0:27— I love seeing the water with a pulled back camera angle!
