Now we’re starting to actually see real dividends of being good guy Arthur. Honor Level +2 unlocks a special 10% discount for players at shops! Sure, it’s not like your favorite sale on a Black Friday but 10% at all shops for that sweet ammunition and clothing is a bargain in the Wild West. Ten percent might not be enough motivation for everyone to be good-guy Arthur, though, so I should probably mention here that these discounts only get better as your Honor Level progres
There’s a slew of incredibly odd stranger encounters in Red Dead Redemption 2 . There are all the different types of hermits, the supernatural encounters, and the more horrific ones. The Aberdeen Farm is part of the third categ
Either due to a glitch or an oversight, it’s possible to do Edith Downes’ missions in Chapter 6 out of order. Depending on how players proceed, they’ll be helping Edith Downes leave Annesburg only to find her in Annesburg with Arthur having never helped her at all. It’s a totally nonsensical turn of events that should have been examined clos
God of War and Red dead redemption 2 soundtrack Dead Redemption 2 will also be competing through proxies in the Best Performance category, with Christopher Judge as Kratos and Roger Clark as Arthur Morgan representing their respective ga
One thing that actually really winds me up in Red Dead is that when you die, you don’t lose your bounty. Come on now. If you’re up for a bit of gaminess, there is a solution. Spend or donate all of your cash, go to the local sheriff’s office, wherever you have a bounty where you have a bounty. Antagonize him (call him a yellow-belly or something), until he turns hostile. Surrender yourself. You’ll spend time in prison, and your bounty will be gone. You lose all your money if you can’t afford the bounty, but if you’ve got rid of it all, no prob
Following on from the last entry, here’s another really handy little timesaver. If you’re deep in menus, as it’s very easy to be in Red Dead Redemption 2 , you don’t need to manually back out of each individual one. Instead, the easiest way to get out of them is to simply hold down Circle/B, instead of tapping it. This drags you all the way out of them, returning you to gameplay instantly. Quite why the game doesn’t tell you this, I have no i
Love for Red Dead Redemption 2 has been going strong since the game’s release. If you’ve played the game yourself, you’ll know that all of this love is deserved. Red Dead Redemption 2 is an exemplary model of an open-world game. The vistas are gorgeous, and the individually rendered parts of your character can hypnotize you. Seriously, I had a tragic horse accident because I was so busy staring at how my coat and saddlebags jostled as we galloped al
This is it boys and girls — the pinnacle of good-guy rewards. It’s your very own personal Black Friday sale anytime, anyplace. My oh my does being a good guy pay off! 50% off in every store in the game is amazing if you ask me. Good-guy Arthur sure does get some sweet Karma on all the nice things he’s done. If you can get to Honor Level +7, you unlock this incredible reward which makes things pretty easy in the mid-to-late game when you want to be stacked
Consistency is important in any medium, but doubly so for video games. If the gameplay does not infer the narrative or vise versa, what’s the point of making a video game in the first place? Create a world that can only exist in this medium or don’t create them at all. Naturally, this means everything mechanic should co
This is more on the subtle side of bad things coming from the Honor Systems, but players with a bad Honor Level will have a harder time convincing NPCs into doing things that favor them. Killed a person and want an NPC to stay hush-hush about it? Well, you might find it harder to convince them if you’re on the wrong side of the Honor spectrum. It’s really simple, they just don’t like
God of War and Red Dead Redemption 2 will be competing in the Best Game Direction, Best Narrative, Best Art Direction, Best Score/Music, Best Audio Design, Best Action/Adventure, and the Game of the Year awa
How are all of you guys and girls finding Red Dead Redemption 2 ? Are you tearing through the story or taking it slow? I think most people are taking the latter option. I know that I am. I’ve still not beaten the thing, despite playing it for about a month now. In fact, I’m just about halfway through the game, and that’s at a push. One thing that’s striking me about this game is just how much depth there is to it. Every single element of the game is a cog in this great interlocking system that forms the overall game. That brings with it a whole host of complexity, and a number of little touches that the game doesn’t even tell you about! In this article, we’re going to go through 30 of these, which should help you live out that wild west hero lifestyle just a little bit m
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a massive game. And when I say it’s large I don’t think you understand, it’s like, really big. The game has dedicated dialogue and animations for every individual character in your caravan. It has expertly intuitive wildlife (except for those rabbits that love running under your horse). And it even makes you manage your cleanliness and wei
