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

God of War and Red 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

Slightly south you will find a viking burial ground where you can obtain a helmet and hatchet. The helmet looks cool, but it doesn’t have any special attributes and the hatchet is just a throwing axe that is slightly alte

Once there you’ll see the wreckage of a crazy looking flying contraption with a skeleton in it. This is probably a reference to the Wright Brothers who started building machines in 1899. This is one of their failed attempts perh

That’s another huge open world game where discovery is just as fun as the main tasks. The reason why I was so addicted to it was, one, it’s a great world to explore. Two, there were plenty of ways to fast travel and get around thus incentivizing me to keep exploring. Red Dead Redemption II doesn’t do that. It has travel hubs, which are far off from the places you want to see. Actually getting to these areas from towns isn’t the problem. It’s getting back in one piece. Maybe I’m just too irritable. No matter, point is, thank goodness for everyone else out there. Let’s get to

The Old West is indeed ancient by today’s standards, but let’s not forget that back then they also had civilizations that were old even to them. For example, vikings. Well if you want Arthur to uncover some ancient Skyrim like architecture, follow the curve at the beginning of the R in Roanoke Val

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

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

But of course, the developers of this game are the developers who worked on the Grand Theft Auto series. A lot of what you can do in Red Dead Redemption 2 is downright ridiculous. Read on if you want to hear about some of the gosh-darned silliest things you can do in one of the best games of the y

This is the big category and the line-up is strong this year. God of War and Red Dead Redemption 2 seem like the most obvious choices, but Marvel’s Spider-Man might also swoop in for a surprise vict

This one is more for cosmetics enthusiasts. We all like to look sleek in our RPGs — fashion is still a thing in the West. Honor Level +3 unlocks outfits like the Bulldogger, the Cowpuncher, the Valentine, the Chevalier, the McLaughlin, the Corson, the Roscoe, and the Cumberland (not Timberland). If you’re like me and want your characters to be rocking those style points, then being a good guy is definitely your th

Rockstar isn’t shy about including supernatural creatures in their games. Past works have included aliens, zombies, Bigfoot, and now even vampires. This secret is a bit later in the game once you’ve unlocked the Saint-Denis locat

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

Just because Arthur is a rough-and-tumble cowboy does not mean he doesn’t know good art when he sees it. In this side mission , Arthur meets a French man by the name of Charles Chatenay, who he shares a conversational drink w

Probably one of the biggest side missions in red dead redemption 2 Weapons Dead Redemption 2 , Arcadia for Amateurs , follows a photographer named Albert Mason who (for some reason or another) always has bad luck. There are several parts to this side mission which you will encounter as you progr
