Why didn’t the gang just eliminate both men then and there? Why even bother having the discussion in the first place? Sure, it wouldn’t have solved their problems, but it certainly would have given them enough time to get out of do
The griefers will see you on one knee and assume “they got you” at which point they will approach to lasso or kill you. If you position yourself just right, when they get into position, you just quick draw and shoot the dynamite (or detonate it by hand). The griefer will not have the proper reaction time, as that is all but impossible, and you can’t help but feel like they might have learned a life lesson from being blown ten feet in the air for trying to ruin other people’s fun. Please note, this is even more satisfying if they are a whole posse, as when placed right, dynamite can easily kill five (and their hors
So go into open world, get to rank 15 (not easy but so worth it) and make some cash to buy dynamite. Lots of it. Then (in online free roam), go to a fairly populated area and scout it out. Now go a few feet in front of you and set up some dynamite on the ground. Walk about six feet away from it and simply take a k

So why doesn’t Dutch just send one of the ladies to fetch the stash of money? After all, Grimshaw is one of the most respected and loyal members of the gang, and it’s clear by the end of the game that she has the gang’s best interests at heart. She would gladly travel to Blackwater and would never think of taking the money for hers
Red Dead Online _ is, well, something to behold. While there are elements in there that _could make this game the best online gaming experience yet, Rockstar has been slow in implementing helpful features and doing something about the insane amount of griefers that populate their western world. Nothing is more frustrating than fishing for an hour so you can get your gold and honor up, only to have some neckbeard camper wait until you reach the butcher to kill you or steal your wares. It makes the act of actually progressing in the story mode online somewhat impossible, and for people not looking for PVP gameplay, it makes for an all but unplayable and trying game experie
You would think anyone who has ever played a PVP game online would know crouching ensures more safety, yet every time we play a PVP match, everyone is red but us. Suffice it to say, it makes ranking top in leaderboards far less difficult than it should be. Also, though it should be obvious to all by now, Red Dead Redemption Online ‘s shotgun is insane, and if you are playing with any other gun, you will probably lose, as it is a one-hit-kill for everyone online. Now saving up for the shotgun? Well, good luck with that, honestly. Only 600 hours of grinding required, no big d
This meta-acknowledgement that Arthur is, after all, just a video game character for the player to control is also a signal that Arthur desires a different life. In his journal , Arthur writes about the conflict of good and evil within him, and envies how easy it seems to be for others, like Charles, to be good. However, the Arthur who exists in those small conversations and in the journal is a separate entity from the one in the game that you control. That Arthur won’t help strangers without the promise of payment. Main missions continually task you with destroying others for your own potential benefit. Arthur will sometimes offer limp verbal disagreement to the actions and decisions of the gang, but it is not until late in Chapter 5 that he actually begins to actively pursue altruism: helping others simply for the sake of it.
Throughout the game, it’s established that the gang can never go back to Blackwater due to their notoriety and the insane prices on their heads. So, why couldn’t they just pay off the bounty and walk back in? It seems that everything has a price in this game, including morality. You can wipe out an entire city, pay some money, and walk right back in like nothing ever happened. Well, that’s just what the Van der Linde gang did in Blackwater, yet apparently, their crimes were so foul that they went beyond bounties. Why is destroying Blackwater so much worse than destroying Saint De
Red Dead Redemption was the tale of John Marston being forced back into the life of an outlaw due to his family being held hostage by the government. Marston was a man who was tired of killing, but would do it anyway because he wanted his family back and to return to a life of peace. This is curiously repeated in the epilogue of Red Dead Redemption 2 , as you once again take control of Marston as he seeks a peaceful life on the ranch of another only to be forced back into killing.
One of the most affecting examples of this for my playthrough in Red Dead Redemption 2 News Dead Redemption 2 was when I came across a house after finishing a race with a stranger. I went into the house curious if there was anything inside, such as the seemingly endless amount of cigarette cards. Inside, there was a father and son having a tense confrontation over the father’s wasteful habits that caused his wife to leave them. While leaving, the boy discovered my hiding place and ran to his room. The father pulled out a gun, so I naturally killed him and proceeded to loot the location as muscle memory kicked in for every other location in the game.
