Cory Barlog and his team managed to accomplish both of these things and turned Kratos from a one-note angry strong guy into an emotionally complex and relatable father. Doing that isn’t easy by any stretch of the imagination and the journey you experience along the way is breathtaking and truly remarka

Leaving one’s entire life behind can be quite a crazy experience. When John left the gang and his old life behind for a year before coming back, what exactly did he do? Managing to eat and survive takes a multitude of skills, he was either robbing on his own or maybe John learned a trade to make some legal money. Maybe it was easier going it alone, and he just missed his family. What took place during this time, and the reason he came back still isn’t clearly sta

We’re not saying that the end of Red Dead Redemption wasn’t great on its own, putting the player in control of the main character’s son as they take revenge for the death of their father. However, we want to know what happens after this, how Jack Marston manages to live in a US that no longer wants the likes of this sort of cowboy in the world. We think it would be interesting to see what would become of this character, how he would change as he became an adult and what being alone in a cruel world does to him. Definitely a sequel worth looking i

John started off a hesitant family man, to say the least. Ditching the gang, leaving Abigail and young Jack behind, it raises the question why. As Dutch reveals in one of his last encounters with John during the first Red Dead Redemption , the whole gang has been with Abigail, and it’s not like DNA testing was around to clarify. Was John a hesitant family man because he wasn’t sure he was Jack’s true father? John was young and impressionable, this could be the reasoning behind why he left, and why he treats Jack like less than a son during the first half of Red Dead Redemption 2 , but the player will never know for s

Accompanied by Javier Escuella, Arthur finds John close to death and sporting a few new scars. A series of wolf attacks are the cause and finally, the origin of John’s scars are revealed. As Arthur begins to help John out of his snowy predicament, John says this quote in a manner of classic Marston sarc

During the starting point of Red Dead Redemption 2 , Arthur states that John recently left the gang for about a year. This is repeatedly brought up especially when talking about the rift between John and Arthur, the question is why. What is it that drove him to that point. John has apparently left the gang before, but never for long, until then. There is more to this story than meets the eye, that will hopefully be explained in the next Red Dead installm

If you explore the swamps of the bayou, you can run into all kinds of crazy supernatural things, including ghosts, phantom trains , and the Night Folk. The Night Folk are a group of pale, murderous psychopaths that you can randomly encounter while out on a moonlit swamp str

He quickly realizes his mistake and tries to cover it by saying Jim Milton right after saying John, but the damage is done. Mr. Gedes assistant Mr. Dickens realizes it immediately and gives a look at John of curiosity. Mr. Dickens also mocks him directly after saying “You hear that John Jim”. This was a heart-dropping moment for players rooting for John Marston to keep things under cont

Of all the unresolved storylines in Red Dead Redemption 2 , this one might be the strangest. It feels less like a plot that was deliberately left Open World games reviews-ended and more like an item the developers forgot to throw

Dutch ‘s journey from inspirational leader to unhinged despot desperately trying to gain control is one of the most fascinating stories in Red Dead Redemption 2. It’s one of the linchpins of the entire campaign. Throughout the game, as Dutch’s plans are continuously foiled, he begins to turn away from his most loyal followers (Hosea, John, Arthur, etc.) when they start questioning his leadership in favor of the villainous Micah Bell. Who never questions him at all, we should n

But nope, Trelawny is completely forgotten by the time the epilogue begins. And that is strangely how it remains. The common assumption is that he went back to his family in Saint Denis, but given his life of being a con artist and all-around charming criminal, it seems unlikely that he would just give it up altogether. Or maybe he did! At this point, it’s anybody’s gu

Any of the players out there that spent a lot of time trying to find every piece of information they could around the camp will know that Micah has a brother, one that he attempted to get in touch with by let

Right before Abigail puts an end to Agent Milton, he admits who the real rat in the gang was. It turns out to be none other than Micah Bell. With this information, Arthur returns to Beaver Hollow and one of the fiercest confrontations in Red Dead Redemption ‘s history happ
