A Rockstar game isn’t complete without ridiculous characters and side missions peppered throughout the map. In Red Dead Redemption 2 we get plenty of opportunities to meet the game world’s oddba

An old Bowie knife with a solid blade, worn out wooden handle and a large D-shaped handguard for protection, this was most commonly used by Civil War soldiers. Now coated in rust, the weapon can be found in a storage room underneath the ruins of Fort Brennand in Roanoke Ridge, New Hanover. This little piece of history may just come in handle in bat

On the flipside, being a bad guy and losing your Honor can lead to bad things in the game as well. One of the biggest headaches in Red Dead Redemption 2 is the bounties put on your head, and your Honor has a lot to do with it. Have your Honor way down in the red zone and you might find yourself being overwhelmed by bounties. It might sound cool being a wanted outlaw, but being constantly shot gets annoying after a while. Paying off these bounties can take a heavy toll on that ole’ coin pouch. Also, it can affect your ability to play some missions in-game, so just be mindful of t

I always try to be a good person whenever I play a game that has you choose between behaving morally right or morally wrong. Even on a second playthrough, I feel too guilty to even try playing dishonora

An upgrade from the last one, players have better chances of looting jewelry and consumables like medicine and horse pills (I think you get where this is going). Consumables are always appreciated and having increased chances of finding them off corpses is actually quite decent. As it turns out, Karma is as real as it gets in Red Dead Redemption 2, and being a good guy certainly has its rewards in the W

Margaret will ask you to track three escaped animals from their circus. These three animals are a zebra, tiger, and lion. Each of these animals has their own separate parts within this side mission, extending the mission out across the map and ending with a hefty rew

So it really sucks when I’m clearly trying to do right by people, but, because some civilians got nudged a tad too roughly by my galloping horse, I suddenly become a villain. Regular townspeople can be a mite sensitive when it comes to how you interact with them…or around t

These side missions usually take the form of aiding Albert Mason – from stolen bags to creating the best photo-ops. For a light-hearted and character heavy side mission, this one proves there is a lot of character progression even outside the main st

If you’re riding off the roads, be careful, and be prepared. There are countless, and I mean countless, ways for you and your horse to come a cropper. Whether it’s a high rock that you tumble over, a sharp drop that you don’t stop in time for, or a darn tree, they’ll all do a ton of damage. If your horse suffers enough damage, it will start to shuffle off this mortal coil, and you can either help them out or revive them. To do this, you need a Horse Revive, which can be purchased from a general st

One of the first towns you come across in red dead Redemption 2 horses Dead Redemption 2 is Valentine, a small town in close proximity to the base camp. In this town, you’ll find a typical Saloon where you can drink away your woes. However, there is also a small bar where you can pick up a fun little side missi

I told you that the discounts only get better! This is an exclusive 25% good-guy Arthur discount. If you thought 10% was good, you’re gonna love this one. Honor Level +5 grants players 25% off items like ammunition, clothing, and consumables in shops. The Wild West really remembers and rewards good de

This next weapon takes a step back away from firearms and instead focuses on weapons that require a more close up and hands on approach. One of the more powerful melee weapons in the game has to be the Ancient Tomahawk. With a striped bound shaft and polished, razor sharp blade, the weapon was well maintained before being abandoned in an old wooden target overlooking the Calumet Ravine. The Calumet Ravine can be found in the wilds of the Grizzl

No, I’m not talking about your health bar, and I’m not even talking about your health core. Think a little more long-term. What you eat, how much you eat, and how much exercise you get determines Arthur Morgan ‘s weight . And that weight can have important game-changing consequences that come with. Being overweight means you’ll take less damage, but have less stamina. Being underweight means you’ll take more damage, but have more stamina. You have to take the good with the bad, and keep in mind your weight will change dynamically based on what you

While you can unlock fast travel fairly early on by upgrading your tent, the game does have a pseudo-fast travel system built in. If you set a custom waypoint on your map, switch to cinematic view, and then set your horse running by holding down X/A, the horse will make its way to the waypoint. You don’t need to even hold the button down. You can go and make a cup of tea/coffee if you like, and when you come back, your horse should be at the destinat
