Armadillo is a much different town in this game than it will be in just a few short years, with John finding it nearly deserted due to a plague. The quiet and simple land of New Austin may not have the hustle-and-bustle of Saint Denis or Blackwater up north, but it still has many unique encounters for the player to experience. While these experiences don't necessarily add anything to the gameplay or provide any special privileges for the player, they could still be exciting for completionists who want to get the most out of Red Dead Redemption 2 News Dead Redemption

RDR2 Stranger Mission " Academia for Amateurs " is one of the most endearing missions on the list. Albert Mason is a wildlife photographer seeking to bring awareness to the creatures of the West, to better protect them and their environments. While his efforts are noble, he is more than a little naïve and often finds himself endangered by the very species he's attempting to document. Albert can be difficult to find in the wilds, as he often changes region, but players that can locate him at every step will be sent astounding photographs of the wildlife they help him obtain, which make great mementos of their time with

It's unknown exactly what this building is or why it explodes, but further inspection seems to indicate it was some sort of moonshine distillery . There is also a charred corpse that can be found inside the house, though it can't be loo

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

The game was quite controversial upon its release for its drug-selling mechanic, which saw the player buying drugs from suppliers and selling them to dealers for a profit. Regardless, the game earned widespread acclaim and was quickly labeled one of the Nintendo DS's greatest tit

Initially, Red Dead Redemption was a simple tale of a reformed outlaw trying desperately to turn from his wicked ways and make an honest life for his family while constantly being dragged back in because of his old gang. Following Arthur Morgan and the Van Der Linde Gang through RDR2, though, made the narrative a larger tale about a complete family of outlaws struggling to continue their way of life set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing frontier as the lawless West gave way to civilization. In doing so, Rockstar made the Van Der Linde Gang and its leader Dutch van der Linde the actual main characters of the franchise, which makes the perfect narrative for Red Dead Redemption 3 to explore the origins of Dutch van der Linde in a similar way the Star Wars prequels showcased the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker. While the western frontier of Red Dead may not be as fraught with heroic saviors and malevolent villains, the tale of a hopeful and ambitious Robin Hood figure turned narcissistic megalomaniac is equally as compelling as the origins of Darth Va

Red Dead Redemption 2 veers closely to realism, and in some player's eyes, that realism comes at the cost of good gameplay. This is summed up by Reddit user u/dcirrilla , who claims that the game is bor

Red Dead Redemption 2 's Van der Linde gang leader was a showman incarnate whose boundless charisma inspired those around him even when he didn't have any hope in his plan. RDR2 's plot was centered around the spiraling downfall of Dutch as he got his allies in exponentially more trouble with each convoluted heist plan. His lavish mount, an albino Arabian steed he called The Count, is an incarnation of the calm, composed, and elegant façade he kept throughout the most hectic parts of Rockstar's West

For Anakin Skywalker, his motivator was the love for his family. Anakin's inability to prevent his mother's death and his fear of losing Padme exacerbate his transformation, but the seeds of this change were present even before. Anakin was always brash and struggled to control his emotions, often acting in the moment without thinking through his actions. Dutch's love is more abstract than loving another person, but the love of an ideal is just as powerful and dangerous if it's not pursued with care. Dutch is not without the motivations of wanting a family, though. Little is revealed about Dutch's life before the gang , but the pieces that RDR2 does show displays his longing for a family that is free of the burdens of the front

Players must avoid killing either of them, which will end what is one of Red Dead Redemption 2's funnier Stranger Missions prematurely (and a bit gruesomely). The targets are relatively easy to hit using Deadeye, and upon completion, the pair leaves to take Helen home without either of them earning her hand in marriage. Soon after they will appear again in Valentine, this time without Helen, and ask Arthur to beat them up to prove whom is toug

When John first arrives at Armadillo , it quickly becomes clear that the cholera plague has taken its toll on the town. Travel around to Coot's Chapel and players may be greeted with the sight of a gravedigger burying and burning a plethora of bod
