You can track NPCs and see they have actual, fully realized lives. If nothing else, Red Dead Redemption 2 finally proves what Elon Musk has been saying for years about simulation theory. We could be living in a simulation right now (and probably are) and we wouldn’t even know it. The gunsmith you followed home and watched have dinner through his window doesn’t know he is an NPC. Gets you think
As someone who studied film in high school and college, I probably have seen a few more Western films than I had wanted to. While I was never fond of the genre and the stories and themes it presented, I found myself more fascinated with the resurgence of the genre rather than the oversaturated Spaghetti Western era of yore. I suspect that Dan Houser was as well because Red Dead Redemption 2 did not remind me of Spaghetti Westerns. In the place of dramatic stand-offs, wandering “men with no names,” and black-and-white morality, there was a grey sense of morality and more profound cynicism at the heart of Red Dead Redemption 2 .
Whether you’ve seen the credits roll on Arthur Morgan’s story, or you’ve skipped everything and jumped straight online, Red Dead Redemption 2 ‘s 32-player battle royale mode can be a steep challenge. Otherwise known as “Make it Count,” the mode features the now-familiar BR formula of a shrinking map and only one victor. This mode, however, is unique from other popular BR modes, such as those seen in Fortnite or Call of Du
If you’re bored of the various cowboy hats on offer and want something a bit more different, then get thee to th1e Old Tomb, slightly northwest of Annesburg, just across the river from the mining town. Head down inside, and you’ll find the Viking Hatchet, which still makes a fearsome weapon, 1000 years after it was forged. In the side rooms, there’s the incredible Viking Helmet, and hidden behind some skulls, an ancient Viking comb, which can fulfill a camp request with pana
No gaming world has ever felt as real as the world in Red Dead Redemption 2 does. There are literally hundreds of open world games out there, and almost no open world has ever been this fully realized or fun to play around in. Even the bigger games have nothing new to do after the first ten hours. But not Red De
Rockstar sure has been hard at work building the online for their infinitely huge RPG, Red Dead Redemption 2 outfits Dead Redemption 2 . The game had a massively successful launch, to no one’s surprise. The standard pattern for them is to then use that profit and popularity to build their games even larger so people will stick with it for years to come. I mean just look at GTA5 . That game released originally in 2013, and yet it still has a bustling online ecosys
Red Dead Redemption 2 forever changed the gaming landscape, and those changes will be long-reaching and will reverberate in this industry for years. So what is it that makes Red Dead 2 so exceptional? Is it the scope? Is it the characters? Is it the graphics? Is it the truly engrossing tale of a wild west posse on a scary downward spiral? Yes to all those things. It is a perfect storm of gaming, where every element that factors in helps make it even more powerful. With that being said, it is safe to say RDR2 has forever changed gaming, and here are ten things that prove that to be t
While games like Fornite focus heavily on sound to alert players of nearby enemies or loot, Red Dead Online has a different approach. As if the game wasn’t tense enough, players will notice their controller begin to vibrate rhythmically as players draw near. This is a fantastic tool to alert you to enemies that may be just out of your line of sight. Use this to your advantage whenever possible. Just remember, if you’re moving and feel a vibration, the other player probably feels it,
Man dinosaurs are cool. Well, at least they were before all those feathers got thrown onto them. Jurassic Park knows it, Godzilla knows it, and Red Dead Redemption 2 knows it as well. That’s why there’s a stranger mission relatively early on where you are able to hunt down the bones of the prehistoric “birds”. The quest is north-east of Flatiron station where a nice old lady professor Deborah asks us to help her out. Find the bone locations and mail the coordinates to here, easy enough ri
Apparently, Calloway is the best shot in the West and a hopeful author would like the point-of-view of his old crew. Apparently, they weren’t the most sociable bunch, as 3 of the 4 try to duel you. But, once you take them out and nab a snapshot, their signature revolvers are yours. Just remember to loot them before you head out, once you leave they despawn and are gone fore
So first in our quest to find all the wacky lads in the old west is Margaret. He’s found next to his crashed cart in Lemoyne. As it happens, his circus animals escaped and he needs us to find them. He lost 2 lions, a zebra, and a tiger. Well, sort of. Turns out they’re all dressed up everyday animals like a Mule, Dog, and Cou
