Telltale’s The Walking Dead introduced the Open World games reviews to Clementine, a young innocent girl just trying to survive the zombie apocalypse. The game focuses on Lee, an older man with a troubled past, acting as a protector of Clementine as they try and find other survivors and a way through the madn
This word has been the route of many of Dutch’s craziest actions, and he somehow correlates Arthur saying this to him becoming disloyal. Dutch’s tone of voice changes to something really friendly and states “Of course pal, whatever you think is best.” This last sentence is exactly where Dutch decides all his original men have left his side, and he convinces himself both Arthur and John are out to get
Of all the colorful characters John has met none may be stranger than The Strange Man. Seen in the first Red Dead Redemption , the Strange Man appears as an almost god-like figure. The man can survive revolver rounds to the back of the head, has some very interesting things to say, and seems to be able to see into the future. Why appear to John, what did John have to offer this mysterious stranger. The Strange Man even knows John’s burial site before John is killed. There are numerous unanswered questions revolving around the Strange Man in the Black Top Hat, and his connection to J
John had two very good opportunities to finish and kill the man who changed the course of his life. Dutch was a father to John, taught him almost everything he knows. Yet in the hardest of times Dutch starts to believe John is a rat, and at a later time even insults John’s family. This begs the question, why didn’t John just finish the job before it started. John, Sadie, and Charles had Dutch outnumbered and outgunned after the death of Micah, and they let him walk. In John’s next encounter with Dutch instead of killing him, leaves him to commit suicide. Was there still a feeling of love and appreciation there or why exactly did John give him the cha
While Sadie is attempting to recruit John full time into her bounty hunter work and possible transportation business, she suggests the work is so easy even Jack could do it. To which Abigail gets very angry and states not to fil his head with bad id
During the starting point of Red Dead Redemption 2 , Arthur states that John recently left the gang for about a year. This is repeatedly brought up especially when talking about the rift between John and Arthur, the question is why. What is it that drove him to that point. John has apparently left the gang before, but never for long, until then. There is more to this story than meets the eye, that will hopefully be explained in the next Red Dead installm
It may seem from the outset that Mario is the good guy as he is on his way to save his girlfriend. However, it is revealed that Donkey Kong stole the girlfriend as revenge for Mario abusing him. We can thank Mario’s animal mistreatment for turning an NPC into one of the most popular video game characters of all t
Her cries can be heard as you edge toward her in the swamp. So, why is she there crying? That’s your job to find out. If you visit her between 9 PM and 3 AM 16 times you can see the horror story that led to her spending the rest of her days in a sw
The last train job, the final heist of them all. In the heat of the robbery, John is shot, and Arthur witnesses him fall backward off the train. The player at this point has no idea what is happening to John or how he makes it back. They know he has to be alive for the events of original Red Dead Redemption to take place, but how does he make it back? Possibly a very cool Downloadable Content update for Red Dead Redemption 2 would be this mission, and it would answer a lot of questions regarding John’s survi
There is no running; the past catches up with everyone eventually. Red Dead Redemption’s John Marston had put his gang life behind him, gone legit, and turned into a family man. Yet his past came knocking on the door. John ultimately died an untimely death at the hands of a double-crossing lawman due to his old crimes and affiliati
In a typical video game, you are conditioned to root for or at least care about the character you are controlling. Unlike movies, you have the opportunity to participate in their entire arc, and even help them achieve their goals. In fact, it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that their goals gradually become your own. However, there are times when the most interesting character is not the one you are playing
In the ten years that takes place between the prequel and the sequel, we want to see what sort of life the charismatic gang leader was living. Giving us a game where we get to finally play as this man would be interesting, perhaps forcing us to try and survive on our own before creating our own gang, working against a country that no longer wants us th
During one particular fishing trip, they are ambushed by Agent Milton of the Pinkerton Detective Agency. After a series of light insults, Milton reveals he killed former Van Der Linde gang member Mac Callander, to which Arthur responds with an icy chill saying this quote. It’s enough to stop guns from being drawn, but keep the tension at an all-time h
