The smallest of pits and falls (by video game standards) have left my character either badly wounded or biting the dust. I’m telling you, it’s ridiculous. I’m not completely irate over this happening though. I’ve laughed more than a few times after a short trip managed to cut down Arthur Morgan in his pr
Of course how Rockstar got all this detail has been the topic of plenty of controversies. But, it’s not just about the detail, but also the size. The finished map for RDR2 encompasses three different states. And when you spread that much detail over that large of a landmass, there’s plenty for players to miss.

One game that captured the hearts of many in the last decade was Red Dead Redemption . The game followed John Marston, a former outlaw turned rancher who was forced by the federal government to hunt down his former outlaw compatriots. Exploring the Old West and seeing the end of the cowboy era was fascinating to live through. Now in recent weeks the highly anticipated sequel/prequel Red Dead Redemption 2 promises to further bring players into the era before cowboys fell. Exploring the gang Marston ran with before he left with his wife, you play as a new hero and must navigate the rough terrain of the Old W
Micah is an utterly pathetic loser. From the start of the game up until the very end, Micah never grows or changes, only devolves. He is a mess who needs to rely on others to thrive and any moment he spends with Dutch involves him kissing butt like it’s his job. He is the ultimate yes

I don’t know if it’s on purpose or a happy accident, but the horse skinning skip is back. In the original Red Dead Redemptio n with our boy John Marston, there was a simple trick. The animation for skinning an animal was actually shorter back then but people were still impati

At one point, Morgan is confronted by Agents Milton and Ross – two of the agents from the Pinkerton Detective Agency – who insist on any information regarding the Van Der Linde gang.

History has become a steady source of content for the gaming industry. While fantasy driven worlds and far off galaxies still hold a lot of weight in the community, game franchises like Assassin’s Creed , Fallout, and Call of Duty all draw inspiration from or context from our world’s historical events to drive their plots home.
