Secret Side Quests Everyone Missed In Red Dead Redemption 2

Following up the record-shattering Grand Theft Auto V was no easy task, but Red Dead Redemption 2 surpassed it with relative ease. Take-Two Interactive, Rockstar's parent company, stated that within the first eight days of its release, Red Dead Redemption 2 sold 17 million copies . That may not sound like a lot, but it's much more than what Red Dead Redemption sold in the 8 years of its existence. Intriguingly, not a mere five months after the game's debut, Take-Two Interactive's share prices dropped 20% with investors worried about the game's level of engagement. This highlights the reality plaguing Red Dead Redemption 2 : downplaying satisfaction. Intelligent investors knew that Red Dead Online was never going to be on par with its cash-grabbing cousin, GTA Onli


Imagine a scenario in which Micah Bell betrays Dutch Van Der Linde and turns him in to authorities for a hefty reward. Not that tough to do considering the type of person Micah is, right? Well, it seems that it may have been an idea Micah had early on in the story. Players who visit his temporary camp in Strawberry can come across a wanted poster for Dutch among newspaper clippings mentioning the murders by Micah and his father. It's never expressed that he was planning on capturing Dutch and turning him in, but it's hard to believe he didn't at least consider


At no point in the game is it ever made clear that Sadie Adler is associated with the Van Der Linde gang. This is crazy considering the other member she spends a ton of time with, Charles, is often written about in the news as a member of the infamous gr


An often overlooked, yet essential aspect of a good visual narrative is the music. Whether it be a movie, television show, or video SLG game Story guide, if the story contains some type of emotional element, it becomes the music's job to drive that element home. If you played Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 2 last year, you experienced a story with a fair amount of emotional complexity that challenged the themes of loyalty, morality, and freedom, and did so in a way that resembled nothing short of a masterpiece. Like most stories of this nature, an enormous bow was needed to tie all of those layers together and create an experience that was just as moving as a movie you'd see at the theater, or a television show that you'd watch at home. Woody Jackson's The Music of Red Dead Redemption 2: Original Score serves as that metaphorical bow, elevating the game to be the immersive, unforgettable experience that is Red Dead Redemption


Similarly, Red Dead Redemption 2 seems to fight its own nature. Perhaps, more accurately, I'm constantly fighting my own nature as a gamer while playing it. Small mishaps always pulled me out of the game, like bumping into pedestrians in Saint Denis would automatically get me wanted, which obviously turned into bloody shootouts every time. The serious nature of the game and its story belied no actual seriousness when presenting topics of immense depth. Rockstar's attempt at making one of the most realistic games falls flat due to awkward button placement, cumbersome menus, annoyingly constant random events, and a slowly-paced st


The song that stood out the most for me personally was Revenge Is A Dish Best Eaten , which served as the musical counterpart for the SLG game cheats's mission of the same name. It begins with an elegant string section, calling into mind the city of Saint Denis and the lavishly devious character of Angelo Bronte. Soon after, an eerie horn emerges into the piece, serving representative to Dutch in a tension-building contrast to Angelo Bronte's strings. The two instruments, while complementing each other, build two separate forms of tension in the same way that the ego-centric, power-hungry personalities of Dutch and Bronte clash with one another. The two personalities dance around with each other until they can no longer coexist. The horns build, rapid guitar strums emerge, then we experience an unnerving high set of strings, right before everything stops all at once for a brief moment. In that brief moment, Dutch kills Bronte. Right as it passes, a heavy string section crashes in to represent Arthur Morgan's horror in realizing just how far Dutch has strayed from the man he once k


Most of the time when people think of nicknames they automatically assume they're used as a term of endearment. That's not always the case as many times nicknames can also be used to tease or ridicule people based on their previous actions or mista


Throughout the game, Dutch Van Der Linde is at first seen as a charismatic leader who only wants a better life for his followers. As time goes on it's clear he's delusional and will come up with any justification to make his actions feel necess


Depending on what area the game's story is taking place non-playable characters will also be sporting weather-specific attire, well everyone but Sadie Adler. Luckily, for those wishing to see her in winter gear, she can be seen wearing exactly that in the multiplayer online mode called Red Dead Onli
