This final High Stakes Treasure Map calls upon you for some platforming skills, something that doesn’t usually go over too well in the world of Red Dead Redemption. Head to the area north-east of Fort Wallace. There is a rocky hill in that area that you’re going to have to cl

Let us take a magical journey on this dark and cold winter night. Back to a time before the internet. Before gamer guides were so easily available. Before the days of walkthroughs, let’s plays, and step by step guides to help gamers through the trickier scenes in well-known ga

This option, in and of itself, goes against the narrative of Red Dead Redemption 2 , which focuses on Arthur’s search for altruism, that he is trying to be a good person. This dissonance is not felt significantly until the very end, where Arthur has decided to follow an altruistic road, but when in the open world the player can still choose to kill and steal from civilians, contradicting the character’s arc.

Throughout Red Dead Redemption 2 , protagonist Arthur Morgan will occasionally voice his displeasure at all the death and destruction that surrounds him and the gang he runs with. As with all good video game protagonists though, missions continue to have you murder hundreds of others and the optional ability to engage in therapy sessions with other women at the gang’s camp. In these conversations Arthur can admit that he feels bad for all the killing he is doing and doesn’t know why he is doing it; that he sometimes feels as if he is not in control of his actions.

I like Arthur Morgan, but I like the version of him that exists in the journal more than the one who exists on-screen. The Arthur Morgan of the journal is one who finds beauty in the landscape, in the people, and in the tragedies of the West. The Arthur Morgan on-screen is a character trope I’m so tired of seeing: the man who kills, but is tired of the killing.

If you have clicked on this article, chances are you aren’t sick of red dead redemption 2 Reviews Dead Redemption 2 yet. There have been what feels like hundreds of articles going around talking about how good it is or rating the weapons you get, which is standard for a new release, but it can be a little draining. But not for you. I’d wager you are a new player wanting to know what weapons to avoid so you don’t waste your time. You want to get in on the good stuff and spend your time wielding powerful weapons that’ll get you through the long haul. Either that or you wanted to see if the weapons you have are up to scra

[pullquote]”The trend of characters who kill or have killed only have to take a moment to acknowledge that what they did was bad and not actively work towards helping others to be considered okay is so tired.”[/pullquote]

He even calls it a paradise on earth—so what happens when you finally make it over the border? Irish up and leaves back to the US never to be seen again. It’s a weird move considering his existence in the States is beyond miserable, plus the trip has been one arduous and dangerous ride—yet for no specific reason, he heads back ag

It’s an effective if slightly predictable plot twist in the game, yet, the scene in question of Commander Allende urging Marston to walk into an empty church into a blatantly obvious ambush is slightly laughable due to how naively the wise gunslinger saunters right into it without a second thought—and guess what? He’s betrayed soon af

These next two maps must be found on hermits. The Torn Treasure Map requires you to shoot the hermit who holds it in order to acquire it. There is a home called Manito Glade that is north of Annesburg. An angry old man lives there. Once you get rid of him, search the drawers of his house. You should find the first half of the Torn Treasure

As we’re enjoying the rich intro with the plot set up, the stakes start to twist to a resoundingly silly moment. After introducing Marston and his quest to take down ex-gang brother Bill Williamson, the ex-gunslinger goes up to Williamson’s uninviting Fort Mercer in plain sight and lets Williamson know his busin

You know what, the “good old days” of gaming actually weren’t that good. I love let’s plays. I love walkthroughs. And there are few things that are better than starting up a game and knowing what you’re doing. In a game as expansive and in-depth as Red Dead Redemption 2 , players are going to need all of the help that they can get if they want to crack into the game and figure out the mechanics in record time. I have spent the better part of this week gathering as much information as I can in order to create an entertaining list of twenty-five tips and tricks that will help you make the most out of your next Red Dead gaming sess

Though I love games that give players the ability to choose their own path, very few games truly nail the balance between good and bad choices. Sometimes the options are incredibly obvious as to which way they lean and sometimes they lead you in completely unpredictable directions. In Red Dead , the honor system was created in a way that makes it incredibly subjective and driven by immediate situations rather than a standard and universal law of morality. Consider the consequences of each action before making a decision. Sometimes ending someone’s life might actually be the honorable decis
