The world of Red Dead Redemption 2 is an expensive one indeed. Not only are there lots of things to buy (or buy off)— stuff like clothes, weapons, and bounties— but income is virtually non-existent. You play as outlaw Arthur Morgan, who is a member of the infamous Van der Linde gang. The only thing is that the gang (by virtue of being a gang) doesn’t really have a reliable or steady source of income. On top of that, the country is moving on (both technologically and socially) and leaving the life of outlaws and cowboys in the literal dust. The gang is forced to loan money to beggars at exorbitant interest rates, rob trains and banks, and do menial odd jobs just to get by. As such, money is tight with a capita
On a similar note, Red Dead Redemption 2 fails to engage with bad actors in this period properly. While the ideals of Cornwall and the Pinkertons are destructive and villainous in their own ways, the game romanticizes the Western lifestyle and ignores that lifestyle’s part in the intense hardships of indigenous people at that period. While this game doesn’t go the Spaghetti Western route in completely ignoring sensitive issues, it bungles its attempts to be more modern and self-aware, while falling into old, “classic” narrative tropes with the Rains Fall story arc. In a moment when the game attempts (with bare minimum effort) to make some form of commentary involving a group of Ku Klux Klan members accidentally catching themselves on fire, the scene doesn’t register in a satisfying way. It’s the equivalent of depicting Adolf Hitler slipping on a banana—a farce with nothing substantial to say, while trying to make it seem like a statement.
While in Rhodes, you unlock the ability to sell stolen horses to a horse fence. Do not do this. It is not worth the effort. Why? Because a basic stolen horse will net you maybe $2. If you want to increase the price, you’ll have to significantly bond with the horse, and this may take a few in-game days. And your reward will be a price increase from $2 to $5. Yay. Yes, you can make more money with rarer horses, but that includes both finding and taming them, which could also take a while. In the end, horse selling is a mug’s game and it’s not worth the time or effort invol
While we have already touched on how amazing it is to see Arthur and the gang evolve and devolve, in this case, I literally mean NPCs. Never in gaming have NPCs been this, for lack of a better term, re
You can track NPCs and see they have actual, fully realized lives. If nothing else, Red Dead Redemption 2 finally proves what Elon Musk has been saying for years about simulation theory. We could be living in a simulation right now (and probably are) and we wouldn’t even know it. The gunsmith you followed home and https://www.Reddeadinsider.com/ watched have dinner through his window doesn’t know he is an NPC. Gets you think
If you’re bored of the various cowboy hats on offer and want something a bit more different, then get thee to th1e Old Tomb, slightly northwest of Annesburg, just across the river from the mining town. Head down inside, and you’ll find the Viking Hatchet, which still makes a fearsome weapon, 1000 years after it was forged. In the side rooms, there’s the incredible Viking Helmet, and hidden behind some skulls, an ancient Viking comb, which can fulfill a camp request with pana
But it doesn’t have to be. Throughout the game there are many interesting side quests you can partake in, many of which don’t take too long and pay quite handsomely. But there are also those quests that don’t pay at all, or pay very little in return for the necessary amount of work. Sure, they can fun through a gameplay or story perspective, but they are next to useless if your goal is acquiring mo
But that wouldn’t go with Dutch Van der Linde’s positions against industrialization, modernization, and technology. Dutch, who I couldn’t help but see and hear as a more handsome Matt Foley from SNL , finds a rival in Leviticus Cornwall, a captain of industry and one of the many banes of Dutch’s existence. He may as well have ended every encounter him by shaking his fist at the sky and screaming “Cornwall!” in anguish. Using Cornwall as a target, Dutch fashions himself as a man of the people, wanting to go back to a time before “law and order” and attempting to score cred by helping some local angry indigenous folks. As Arthur Morgan discovers later, this is all part of Dutch’s plan to exploit this tribe’s conflict with the U.S. Army for his own gain.
Another secret from the urban jungle of Saint-Denis, this one is a huge homage to the horror classic Nosferatu . You’ll need to follow a trail of graffiti that’s been scrawled by the vampire. We won’t ruin the quest for you, but if you want to start it, the first graffiti can be found across the road from the big saloon in the northeast of the city. The trail will lead you all over the city, and you’ll have to end this monster’s existence, but the payoff is well worth
