The world found in Red Dead Redemption 2 is a gorgeous one indeed. However, some people have been critical towards the map, often pointing out the long slogs between locations, the general emptiness and barrenness, and lack of things to "

Like most of the strangers across the Red Dead world, Professor Marko Dragic is something of an eccentric. What starts as an innocent mission on a boating lake becomes something much darker when Dragic goes all Frankenstein and harnesses the power of electricity to create his very own bionic

While Valentine is a place players will likely pass through frequently, and is at the center of several story missions, it can be easy for players to miss out on the adventure of the two brothers. They will only appear within Valentine and its surrounding areas, a territory which can be thoroughly explored during the earlier sections of the game. Seeing the Stranger Mission through to the end results in an amusing outcome for the brothers and Helen, and the increasing level of shenanigans are enjoyable for Arthur Morgan and players al

Rockstar has been one of the most acclaimed developers of this generation, largely for the incredible narratives it creates. While the GTA franchise is certainly Rockstar's crown jewel, the studio's most impressive narrative is arguably the story told throughout Red Dead Redemption _ and Red Dead Redemption 2 _ . Choosing to move back in time with RDR2 made a lot of sense given how the original game ended. Making a direct sequel would have been tricky at the least, but beyond that, Rockstar's decision to move back in time actually changes the overall direction of the entire franchise and possibly for RDR3 as w

As he saves Brooks, he tells him who exactly he is, and asks, in a low voice, "Should I have killed you, sell Jimmy Brooks?" This cutscene is crucial, as it reminds players that Arthur isn't just the sweetheart cowpoke they've come to know: he's still very much the same ruthless outlaw he always

" The Artist's Way " is one of the most entertaining Stranger Missions. Arthur Morgan will encounter Charles Châtenay at a bar, who will ask to be treated to a drink. If players do not buy a drink for him, they will not be able to experience the rest of the mission. After the first encounter with Châtenay, the second part of his Stranger Mission will appear in the form of an attempted murder in Saint Denis. Only after hearing the commotion of Charles being threatened at gunpoint will the Stranger icon appear for players. Seeing as Red Dead Redemption 2's Saint Denis is naturally loud, it can be all too simple for a player to simply continue on their, especially in a low-Honor playthrough. Failing to respond to the event will prematurely end the questl

It's a heartbreaking moment because players can tell Arthur really, really wants to, and even if they have reservations about Mary herself, ultimately they just want Arthur to be happy. But his sense of loyalty towards the gang keeps him from acting selfishly, and so he's relegated to watching Mary walk away once again, while he's left standing al

The conflicts are certainly different for Anakin and Dutch, the outcomes even more so, but the nature of their stories is still very similar. They are both characters who bring about the very things they are trying to avoid in their quest for the life they want. Blinded by selfishness and greed, they each make mistake after mistake not realizing they are creating their own downfall, from rushing into situations without proper planning to trusting people they know they shouldn't. A hero's demise and the rise of a villain are timeless tales in every form of literature, and Red Dead Redemption _ and Red Dead Redemption 2 _ already set in motion that narrative for Dutch. This, paired with the fact that moving forward in time with RDR3 presents massive struggles, makes continuing the prequel trajectory an ideal fit. Doing so gives fans the opportunity to see a young Dutch van der Linde in a similar way that Star Wars fans saw the boy who would one day become Darth Va

No one has ever really come to the Grand Theft Auto series for a good story. The stories aren't bad by any means - in fact, some of them are quite great and have aspirations to be taken seriously on their literary merits ( Grand Theft Auto IV ). And while Grand Theft Auto V had a fun and engaging story, the one found in Red Dead Redemption 2 was simply superi

Many great side stories exist alongside the heart-wrenching events of **Red Dead Redemption 2 ** . As Arthur and John experience the trials and adventures of others, their personalities are also explored more deeply, beyond usual criminal activities and the troubles of the gang.

Just north of Tumbleweed, John can choose to discover a small house that sits in the distance. Unfortunately for the player, this house cannot be explored. If the player gets too close to the house, it will unexpectedly explode without any rea
