Players will find two children chained to a wall who can be rescued. While Brother Dorkins is grateful enough to let Arthur take money from his donation jar, Arthur can choose to refuse this payment for an Honor boost. It's a simple yet engaging side quest that shows how each and every corner of Red Dead Redemption 2 's map is full to the brim with details, secrets, and unique eve

Like Grand Theft Auto Online , Red Dead Dead Redemption 2 's multiplayer component allows players to create their very own outlaw. They can make the character male or female, tall or short, thin or thick. Players who make a plus-sized character will find that the clothes and physics weren't designed to accommodate their figure. Larger characters will find their jackets and loose accessories continually clipping through things, leading to continued laughs or annoyance when trotting through the open world. For a game that prides itself on realism, this sure was interesting oversi

The two Red Dead Redemption games are two of the finest games in the medium's past ten years. They each created a convincing Wild West environment, telling brutal, unfair tales of the outlaw lifestyle. Throughout both the original and the prequel, many established characters bite the dust. Some of these folks really deserved it, while others were innocent victims. For this list, we'll take a look at five whose passing brought tears to gamers' eyes, and ones that had us whooping with satisfaction as they got what was coming to them. If revenge is a dish best served cold, then why did it feel so sweet in these tit

Red Dead Redemption 2 's original score works equally as a thematic landscape of the old west as well as it does an emotional vessel for the game's narrative. The opening track, By 1899, The Age Of Outlaws And Gunslingers Was At An End , eerily sets the tone for the story of Dutch Van der Linde and his gang, attempting to remain outside the law in a country that no longer tolerates the concept. Afterwards, we're greeted with the slow whistling introduction of Outlaws From The West , before the game's iconic western theme busts in, truly establishing the story's vibe. The song, which would play perfectly with any western film from the 60s or 70s, uses its drawn-out guitar riffs and flute to set the landscape for a world of both incredible natural beauty and harrowing danger. We're instantly introduced to the feeling of hope that anything can be accomplished, and the dread that anything can be taken away, a concept that defines Red Dead Redemption

Red Dead Redemption 2 doesn't care about other games that have come out in recent years, and it doesn't defer to successful models when deciding how to present an open world to the player. The Game releases can be obtuse. It can be difficult. It can be incredibly slow. But, in spite of all that, Red Dead Redemption 2 exists as a breath of fresh air among a crowded field of open-world games. There is an unforgettable atmosphere. And players who stick around will perceive the immense level of care in the game's design. Rockstar went to absurd lengths to bring the West to our screens, and they did a damn fine job. Here's how Red Dead Redemption 2 broke the mold with open-world ga

The sheer amount of things players can accomplish in Red Dead Redemption 2 is truly off the charts, with players loving the sheer freedom they can enjoy while exploring the game world. There are a wealth of side activities that players can check out if they wish, with some of these being so hidden that it's very possible most people never really managed to experience this content for themselves. Thankfully, the community has banded together to uncover as many secrets about this title as possible, including its lesser-known side que

There are some video game villains so charismatic that we love to hate. Then there’s Micah Bell, a conniving, snake-like character that we absolutely despise. From the very first time we’re introduced to Micah, we already loathe

Holding one's family hostage to make them do your dirty work is morally corrupt, and deserving of some good old fashion Wild West justice. Coincidentally, the two's first and last meeting were both on a riverside where one party was fish

Arthur can take quite a beating, including falls from what one would think to be fatal heights. Usually though, he is fine. When he falls small distances, he does it silently. But leap from a high enough point and he starts screaming for his l

The song that stood out the most for me personally was Revenge Is A Dish Best Eaten , which served as the musical counterpart for the game's mission of the same name. It begins with an elegant string section, calling into mind the city of Saint Denis and the lavishly devious character of Angelo Bronte. Soon after, an eerie horn emerges into the piece, serving representative to Dutch in a tension-building contrast to Angelo Bronte's strings. The two instruments, while complementing each other, build two separate forms of tension in the same way that the ego-centric, power-hungry personalities of Dutch and Bronte clash with one another. The two personalities dance around with each other until they can no longer coexist. The horns build, rapid guitar strums emerge, then we experience an unnerving high set of strings, right before everything stops all at once for a brief moment. In that brief moment, Dutch kills Bronte. Right as it passes, a heavy string section crashes in to represent Arthur Morgan's horror in realizing just how far Dutch has strayed from the man he once k
