In his youth, Arthur met a waitress named Eliza. After a brief fling, she became pregnant with their son Isaac. Eliza was aware of Arthur’s criminal past but still accepted his support. Arthur would actually come and stay with his family every few months for several days at a t
These guys are kind of ridiculous. It has a ton of stamina and health, sometimes the Arabian horse has even more health than you do, which is insane. It seems crazy to me that your freaking horse has more health than you; stamina and speed are to be expected, but health, really? Like, this horse is dubbed an Elite Superior level horse, which just proves that it is overpowered, in my honest opin
What makes the journal even more beautiful is the fact that it records your moments in-game and weaves them into the life of Arthur. I may not be able to make Arthur loyal to Dutch in the end or have him be pals with Micah, but I can decide what side activities he partakes in or the animals he hunts. It gives what I do in-game life. The journal becomes my version of Arthur’s final days, giving my playtime a personal, lively touch that I’ve never experienced in a game before: Arthur’s story and mine intertwine.
Given their passionate romance, it’s hard to believe that Arthur and Mary didn’t try running away to start a life together. And it turns out the two actually tried that, only for it to unfortunately f
If you get your hands on this stuff, do not let it go. Not only does it replenish literally everything including your red dead redemption 2 crafting Guide Eye, but it also fortifies them. That is the most overpowered thing ever, like jeez, d
While in Rhodes, you unlock the ability to sell stolen horses to a horse fence. Do not do this. It is not worth the effort. Why? Because a basic stolen horse will net you maybe $2. If you want to increase the price, you’ll have to significantly bond with the horse, and this may take a few in-game days. And your reward will be a price increase from $2 to $5. Yay. Yes, you can make more money with rarer horses, but that includes both finding and taming them, which could also take a while. In the end, horse selling is a mug’s game and it’s not worth the time or effort invol
In-game journals or logs in other games often have the appearance of life, thanks to talented teams, but none feel like living, breathing books like Arthur’s does. Drake’s notes in the Uncharted series are filled with doodles and charm that is signature to Drake’s personality, but its in-game purpose is usually to solve simple puzzles more than to flesh out the characters. During my brief time with Mass Effect , the Codex was easily my favorite bit since it filled out the history of the galaxy, but it lacked a personal anchor point.
Now if you want to sell some stolen goods, wagons are a great investment. You can sell stolen wagons to the fence in Emerald Ranch, and lucky for you, the roads near the ranch are absolutely littered with wagons. All you need to do is camp out in the grass, wait for a wagon to spawn (which may only take a few minutes,) and then proceed to steal it and sell it. The whole ordeal is over in five minutes, and you net yourself a cool $40. Of course, this will lower your honor, but hey, no one said life in the Wild West was e
This pistol weapon is in a similar boat to the Varmint Rifle. The reload speed and rate of fire are pretty good but the damage is weak. When hunting prey, especially small to moderate animals, surely it is best to get them in one clean shot so the pelt has minimal damage and you don’t have to chase after the animal. Plus, this means the hunt is as easy and quick as possible while hopefully earning you more ki
But it doesn’t have to be. Throughout the game there are many interesting side quests you can partake in, many of which don’t take too long and pay quite handsomely. But there are also those quests that don’t pay at all, or pay very little in return for the necessary amount of work. Sure, they can fun through a gameplay or story perspective, but they are next to useless if your goal is acquiring mo
The journal is a stellar hand-written chronicle of the game’s story and your influence woven together from the perspective of the game’s two leads. It is richly-detailed in an engrossing way that made me play around it. Instead of opening it when I had a chance, I made time for it.
If you’d prefer to live a more honest life, then hunting is always an option. Unfortunately, it doesn’t pay nearly as well as stealing wagons. Hunting animals is not only risky business, but it’s hard work. You have to find an animal, hope that it’s a nice three-star version, and then dispose of it cleanly. Then you have to skin it and ride it back to the butcher’s, all for maybe $10 in pelts and meat. In the time it takes you to hunt four perfect animals for $40 you could have stolen one wagon outside Emerald Ranch. Plus you get your clothes and your horse all messy, and who wants t
