After returning from Guarma, Arthur finds a letter written by Sadie guiding them to their new hideout. The only thing is, the Pinkertons have been scouring the area for a while. You’re telling us that NONE of the agents found that letter? The letter that was practically sitting next to the front d
The game’s internal logic also has the tendency to not make a whole lot of sense. Granted, many of these logical inconsistencies and flaws are waved away at the behest of gameplay, and we can understand that. While the game certainly is immersive, you don’t want it to be TOO immersive. When that happens, you risk losing the audience. With that said, it’s still fun to ponder the total lack of sense that this game’s universe ma
RDR2 being a prequel to RDR has allowed for Rockstar to make a tremendous amount of call forwards, deliberately ensuring that playing RDR after its sequel will have more of an impact. One of these bits of foreshadowing happens when John is missing in a snowstorm at the beginning of the game, and Arthur and Javier are sent out to look for
That way, people who are aiming for 100% can just buy these packs over and over. But at the end of the day, if you have to make a workaround for your sidequest because it’s so disorganized, doesn’t that speak volumes about its quality? I think
While it can be understood some gamers dedicated themselves to the main story missions, desperate to find out how this story played out and led into the events in Red Dead Redemption , they truly missed out on some of the best experiences the game has to of
If you are anything like us, your PS4 screenshot folder is now about 2,563 or so pictures from your RDR2 playthrough. From the double rainbows you would sometimes see over camp, to the insane detail when the fog would roll in on a moonlit night, Red Dead 2 ‘s graphics, weather system, and lighting are staggering to beh
By the time we first meet Dutch in the first game, he’s a shell of a man still fighting uselessly against the march of civilization. A single glance at him might still reveal a glimmer of a great man worthy of John’s loyalty, but many players found it difficult to understand how John could have followed such an obvious madman. RDR2 answers this by presenting a much more lucid Dutch at the beginning of the narrative, still filled with his trademark charm and wit. As the story continues and pressures mount, we witness Dutch slipping towards his inevitable heartbreaking fall into madn
Due to the infamous ferry robbery, no one from the Van der Linde gang is allowed to step foot in Blackwater. However, no one there should know about the women. It’s established that the ladies of the Van der Linde gang do not partake in the heists, and therefore, the law should not know of their identities. And even if they know their names, they wouldn’t know their fa
They’re actually poetry, and all have the same central theme of blood. Once you find them all, a black “X” will appear on your map. Wait to visit it until around midnight. You’ll then stumble across the so-called “vampire”. I won’t spoil the encounter, but you can expect nab a neat little melee weapon from as w
I always question what the role of the Western genre, with all of its baggage, can be in this day and age. Regardless of the answer, so many parts of Red Dead Redemption 2 ‘s story felt like a pale imitation of more celebrated examples of the genre. If it hasn’t come already, there will come a time where this modern tale will have been told too many times. What will result is an irony where media is overstuffed with Westerns arguing that the Western shouldn’t die out.
Other than the vampire encounter, this is by far the most fantastical mission in the game. It features one Marko Dragic as he works to finish his masterpiece, to his own detriment. This is another one that takes place in Saint-Denis, so wait till after chapter 4. Your first encounter with Marko is to help him win over some investors with his “toy” submar
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a larger than life game with so many little details around the vast open world. The creators, Rockstar, are well known for their captivating and in-depth storylines in series like Grand Theft Auto , Bully, Max Payne , and L.A. Noire . As in many of their other titles, the developers have snuck several easter eggs into the vast world of Red Dead Redemption 2 weapons Dead Redemption 2. These easter eggs have spawned many conspiracy theories around different parts of the game, including things that have to do with side characters and even Arthur Morgan himself. Everything from the supernatural to something as a blind man who can see the fut
Just those opening couple hours in the snow made you grab a blanket off the back of the couch to wrap yourself in, feeling like the cold was biting while you played it. Add to that the frankly stunning weather effects and particle effects and you have what just might be the prettiest looking game ever m
