Challenges in the first Red Dead Redemption were difficult, but tolerable for the most part. The latter challenges were demanding enough to give any player a headache, but never so overwhelming where they outright detracted from the game’s overall quality. The same cannot be said for Red Dead Redemption II , unfortunat
CEO Strauss Zelnick accompanied the press release with a comment. Interestingly, the company expects fiscal year 2019 to be a record year thanks to Red Dead Redemption 2. Before you start thinking of a delay, fiscal year 2019 for Take-Two is between April 1st, 2018, and March 31st, 2
It almost seems obvious that Micah would end up being the gang’s rat in hindsight. He spends all his time with Dutch, constantly attracts lawmen, and accuses Arthur of being the real traitor. It’s quite obvious that the audience should be skeptical of Micah which Rockstar knew and remedied with Mo
Arthur Morgan does so much for the Marston family. He rescues John in Chapter 1, takes Jack fishing in Chapter 2, gets Jack back in Chapter 4, helps save John’s life at the start of Chapter 6, rescues Abigail from Milton in the final mission, and gives his life so that John Marston can inherit his legacy in the Epilo
Who doesn’t love horse riding? Horse riding in the first game was an absolute treasure. There was a true joy to exploring the Wild West on horseback as John Marston and that extends to Arthur Morgan as well. For the most part. While horse riding is still generally quite fun, the new realism based mechanics can make it a bit of a ch
Hosea is Dutch’s better half. He is the brains behind the brawns, but he never gets any of the credit. Not that Hosea cares, mind you, but that doesn’t change the fact that Dutch’s Gang mostly due to Hosea’s leadership abilities. Once he’s gone after Chapter 4, it’s no wonder everything falls ap
The problem is, Red Dead Redemption came out before Red Dead Redemption II and John never mentions Arthur. In fact, John actively says that the gang betrayed him and the very notion of family was a fallacy. We see this to be false, but it doesn’t reflect on John’s opinions- it’s just a plot er
Every dollar counts in the first three chapters. Should you want to upgrade the camp or any of Arthur’s belongings, you’ll actively need to find means of making money. Whether it be selling valuables, robbing folk, or just playing mini-games, money making is slow, but precious. You truly feel as though you’re building a wallet you can be proud
If you’ve been looking forward to unlocking the Repeating Shotgun in hopes that it’s something of an AA12, I’m sorry to disappoint. The Repeating Shotgun in Red Dead Redemption 2 is somewhat disappointing, particularly when compared to the pump-action and semi-auto. It does the same amount of damage as the pump-action, but it lacks its accuracy. Despite being a repeater, it also has a slower rate of fire than the semi-auto. Is it worth its $185 price? Absolutely not, sa
Smuggler’s Run , a major update focused on aerial vehicles and gameplay that introduces new smuggling-based business opportunities, a new Hangar property for storing a range of aircraft, including planes, choppers and ultralights for transporting criminal cargo across the state; and an array of themed content drops post-launch featur
When a weapon takes its name from one of the most violent forces of nature, you know it’s going to pack a punch. The Volcanic Pistol does not disappoint. It deals, by a long way, the most damage of any pistol in the game, firing off round after round of Red Dead Redemption 2 money guide-hot death. Its only real downside is a fairly slow fire rate and a very low reload speed. However, if you’re using it at close range, especially with Express rounds, this gun can take down even the most fierce f
As a result, they made it possible for you to go back through the game and visit the gravesites of your fallen friends. Each grave is located in the area where the character ended. This game cannot get any more realis
Spoilers Kieran has perhaps the clearest telegraphed arcs in the entire game. One of the first characters you meet, Kieran betrays the O’Driscolls, joins Dutch’s gang, and gets a chance to prove his loyalty while earning his keep. Logic dictates he play a large role in the story and form a natural bond with Arthur. Then he gets eliminated and the game just sort of forgets he ever exis
Now, before anyone complains, I will admit that the Varmint Rifle is great for dealing with, well, varmints. Taking out small wildlife requires a delicate touch, and this is what said rifle provides. What it does not provide is the firepower to take down bounty hunters, gang members, or lawmen. The weapon does less than half the damage that the Springfield and Bolt-Action rifles do. About the only thing it has going for it is that it’s got a fast fire rate and a good-sized magazine. However, you’ll need that if you’re going to fire enough lead to down anyb
