10 Throwbacks To The Original Red Dead Redemption In RDR2

The Stone Hatchet is one of the best weapons you can get in Red Dead Online , at least insofar as melee weapons go, but actually getting the hatchet requires you to play a fair bit of Grand Theft Online . If you don’t have access to both games, move along because you won’t be getting this hatc

Apparently, Calloway is the best shot in the West and a hopeful author would like the point-of-view of his old crew. Apparently, they weren’t the most sociable bunch, as 3 of the 4 try to duel you. But, once you take them out and nab a snapshot, their signature revolvers are yours. Just remember to loot them before you head out, once you leave they despawn and are gone fore

The average Red Dead Redemption 2 Walkthrough Dead player probably does not realize that giving the local Saint Denis Times a peek is a worthwhile task as the game’s newspapers show how the outside world looks upon the Van der Linde Gang’s doi

Although making money online is both time consuming and initially difficult, it is by no means impossible. Rockstar is not so evil where players who refuse to give into microtransactions will be barred from progress. You’ll need to dedicate some time, of course, but there are some surprisingly easy methods for money making online. Some are even deceptively simple, making use of ideas that almost seem too obvious to work. That’s the beauty of any online world, though- sooner or later, players will discover the most optimal ways of progression through trial and error, and teamwork. Rockstar’s economy might be intentionally horrible, but that doesn’t mean we can’t game the sys

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

In RDR , John famously swam like a rock when he so much as put a toe into deep water. Not even his horses could keep him from sinking. In RDR2 , Rockstar not only has Arthur constantly make fun of John for it, but you will also lose the ability to swim when you play as John in the Epilogue. Talk about commitment to a charac

RDR2 being a prequel to RDR has allowed for Rockstar to make a tremendous amount of call forwards, deliberately ensuring that playing RDR after its sequel will have more of an impact. One of these bits of foreshadowing happens when John is missing in a snowstorm at the beginning of the game, and Arthur and Javier are sent out to look for

Events that players took part in get written about, and it’s interesting to read about them from a remote perspective. It is also a testament to the amount of detail developers put in this game if they have dynamic newspap

While riding on your horse through the expansive wilderness, you obviously must have noticed the day/night cycle that takes place. However, only an extremely observant eye will have noticed that the moon follows the lunar cycle as w

There are a lot of birds online, and we do mean A LOT of birds. You cannot go anywhere on the map without looking into the sky and seeing flocks of birds in the distance. More often than not, you’ll only notice these birds when you’re on your way to a new location, but you really should take the time to shoot them d

Man dinosaurs are cool. Well, at least they were before all those feathers got thrown onto them. Jurassic Park knows it, Godzilla knows it, and Red Dead Redemption 2 knows it as well. That’s why there’s a stranger mission relatively early on where you are able to hunt down the bones of the prehistoric “birds”. The quest is north-east of Flatiron station where a nice old lady professor Deborah asks us to help her out. Find the bone locations and mail the coordinates to here, easy enough ri

If Rockstar set developers to work on male horse parts, you just know that they also set them to work on other bodily functions. Case in point, if you hover around certain non-playable characters, they will occasionally let loose with a f

Other than the vampire encounter, this is by far the most fantastical mission in the game. It features one Marko Dragic as he works to finish his masterpiece, to his own detriment. This is another one that takes place in Saint-Denis, so wait till after chapter 4. Your first encounter with Marko is to help him win over some investors with his “toy” submar

In the prequel, Arthur Morgan can meet the remains of another enterprising man who had an abrupt encounter with the ground as well. This crashed airship just rests innocuously by itself, waiting for the exploring player to stumble upon it. Finding this guy made me reminisce about the first game so h

There was a gratifying feeling to doing chores at camp and hearing everyone thank you, then being able to upgrade. It is all stuff that has been implemented in games before, but never as well as it is h
