A bloody shootout through the streets of Valentine forces the group to move on, leading to the discovery of a considerable amount of gold possessed by the dueling Gray and Braithwaite families in the town of Rhodes. The gang works to play both families in an effort to eventually obtain the gold, but wind up getting played themselves, with John Marston’s son, Jack, getting kidnapped. Jack is eventually rescued, but the gang gets double-crossed in the process, causing Dutch to decline even more in his thoughtfulness and strategy. He plans a bank heist that doesn’t go at all as planned, resulting in Marston being captured, as well as the deaths of two of the more high-profile characters of the gang, including Dutch’s best friend. In an attempt to escape the law (and everyone else who wants them dead) the gang hops a ride on a tanker ship headed to C
In the area of Rhodes is where our next chance encounter lies. If you happen to buy from the Gunsmith there, you might’ve heard some whispers as you walked in. There’s a man that calls out to you from the basement hatch outs
Alongside the numerous missions, side quests, and random encounters that players in Red Dead Redemption 2 hunting Guide Dead Redemption could find, the map was also littered with a handful of Western minigames that could be played at your pleasure: Blackjack, Poker, Horseshoes, Liar’s Dice, and Arm Wrestling. While there were specific goals tied to each of the games that would contribute to a 100% completion in the game, the minigames by themselves were largely optional and inconsequential, in the grand scheme of things. Of course, many of the minigames also carried with them some significant rewards in the form of cold hard cash; Liar’s Dice in particular was a game that could be pretty financially lucrative, if you knew how to play the table right. But more than that, the minigames in Red Dead Redemption felt deeper than just fun distractions from the main story of John Marston.
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
Given that it’s been eight years since we last rode out West with the Red Dead series, I’m already enticed by what we’ve seen from Red Dead Redemption 2 and what its massive Western open world will have in store. Though we’ve only had a few trailers over the past year or so, there’s already a tantalizing amount of variety that Rockstar has shown in its world that I can’t wait to see more of in the final game, such as hunting, herding, and hopefully much more beyond that. And yet for all that I can expect Red Dead Redemption 2 will deliver a massive open world full of beauty, action, and spectacle, I can’t help but hope that the minigames of Red Dead Redemption will not only make a return, but be expanded upon to really make its sequel’s world that much richer and more detailed.
Once you do, the map will update with your next location. Keep in mind, he’ll only show up late at night. Pop in around midnight and you’ll come face to face with the “vampire” Rockstar so lovingly included, and a unique weapon as a rew
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
But what I don’t dig, however, is how horribly unlucky he seems to be. This musician was born with a lot of problems, but seems to be dealing with them on his terms. There are actually a fair amount of what society would consider “social outcasts” spread throughout the game wo
Out of all the hidden masks and hats out there, this example is one of the harder to find. Head out to the Bayou right above where it says Lakay on the map. If you come across a little shack half submerged in the water, you’ve found the right pl
Holding L2 or LT, depending on your system, and clicking in the left joystick will prod Arthur into giving your horse a reassuring pat on the head/neck, which keeps your horse reasonable and gains a little bit more of your horse’s tr
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
