Far Cry 5 ranks at the beginning of my list for Game of the Year and it barely made it onto here. Let me tell you a story of how I even came to purchase this title. I’m a bad spender – give me money, it’s gone in a week or two. I had money around the time that Far Cry 5 was about to release and I thought “meh, why not” and pre-ordered the game. It’s a bad habit; help me. In doing so, I jumped blindly into a series which I had never really touched other than playing Far Cry 4 and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon at a friend’s house in the previous years.
The Cigarette Cards. Oh, man the Cigarette cards. These are absolutely impossible to collect in any sort of organized fashion. You’ll just happen upon them now and again on your travels as you loot houses. But, if you want to collect them all for 100% completion or something, this absolutely sti
Aside from becoming the most popular video game on the planet, Fortnite actually helped me expand on my career this year. I started off the year at various other outlets before eventually branching out into writing about Fortnite . __ Writing about this game actually allowed me to open up my experiences in games writing, and I actually ended up here at DualShockers because of it. I’m happy at the journey this game allowed me to take, and the memories I’ll have because of it. As much as it can suck sometimes waking up early in the morning to write about patch notes, it gives me the motivation to keep going and not just lay in bed all day. Thank you, Fortnite . You can suck it if you blindly hate this game. That’s my two cents.
Needless to say, Far Cry 5 was a huge change from its predecessors – and I’m not sure I liked it. At the start of the game, it’s quite fun when you begin to learn about the cult and story of the world you’ve been dropped into. It had great potential from the get-go, with a cool concept. However, Ubisoft wasn’t the best at executing that later on down the line.
As on any big game with an interconnected plot and multiple side missions, things can get pretty complicated. And just because I think Red Dead Redemption 2 is the best game to come out this year (take that God of War ), does not mean I can’t recognize its flaws. Read on if you want to learn about the many plot holes and unanswered questions that RDR2 left hang
Leviticus Cornwall is the man responsible for sending the Pinkertons after the Van der Linde Gang. The Gang stole some of Cornwall’s property, and that started this giant feud between them. The feud comes to an abrupt end when Dutch confronts Cornwall near Saint De
This mission has some of the most unique characters in RDR2 . It’s found around the Van Horn Trading Post where you’ll stop a man named Bertram from choke-slamming a bartender. Turns out he’s a sweetheart that works with a woman named Marjorie who’s looking for her other employee, Magnif
It has been almost three months since Red Dead Redemption 2 released and people are still having so much fun with its gameplay (I’m one of those people) as it has become a video game that is practically impossible to put down. There is so much to do in this open-world game and the story is top notch. Red Dead Redemption 2 challenges Dead Redemption 2 is a prequel to the first game, telling the tale of what exactly happened to John Marston’s old gang, and we play most of the narrative through the eyes of Arthur Morgan, right-hand man for leader Dutch van der Linde. Alongside Morgan, we travel through the bittersweet narrative with a fresh pair of eyes, falling in love with the setting all over ag
As a Western-themed title, you’d better believe that Red Dead Redemption 2 takes its horses super-seriously. So much so that you can’t fast-travel at all if your faithful steed isn’t in the vicinity. You arrive at the destination you choose riding said horse, you see, which means that they have to be there and ready for the journey
Are you a sucker for Viking history? Do you want to make Arthur look more like Ragnar Lothbrok? Then you’re in luck because there’s a Viking tomb on the map! If pirates are more your speed – there’s a wrecked pirate ship too. Want to tingle your spine with some Blair Witch -esque Pagan horror? You can. How about chatting to the game’s version of Nikola Tesla? You’re in for a treat. It’s a ridiculously varied game, and we’re here to help you get the most that you possibly can from
When I first started playing Red Dead Redemption 2 , I thought the bandana was a useless piece of equipment. Even though I wore it during crimes, lawmen still seemed to know that it was Arthur Morgan who committed t
First is shooting bottles off their heads. Then they want punches straight to the face. Finally, they prove their commitment through going over a waterfall in two separate barrels and miraculously survive. Honestly, it’s some of the funniest stuff in the game, the only downside is that it’s split into three separate interactions, and they don’t pop up on the map, you have to either follow a guide or happen upon t
