After Shiftacre is intimidated into validating the paintings, the Mayor will contact Arthur again after a couple of days . This time, he wants Arthur to track down an NPC named Hector Fellowes and convince him to contribute money to a public library. Fellowes will not donate willingly, forcing Arthur to get the money by threatening him. Next, Arthur will return to the Mayor's mansion to speak with him.

Similarly, in the original Star Wars trilogy, fans were introduced to one of the most iconic villains of all time and were given fragments of Vader's backstory, but viewers were still largely only presented with the knowledge that once there was a good man before he put on the helmet. By the time the original trilogy is over, viewers know that Darth Vader was once a promising young Jedi, but they don't know that actual character, only that he once existed. The prequel trilogy gave layers and depth to the man who would become Lord Vader, painting a portrait of a passionate and ambitious youth not all too unlike how Dutch's young self is referenced in RDR2 . Each had a vision of the world they wanted to make, and, like Anakin, even as Dutch's plans continued to fail , they were still plans initially made with the best of intenti

Dutch's origins as a runaway from his impoverished family struggling to make it, and his turn to thievery for survival, also lay the foundation for the gang itself. Dutch feels like an outsider in the frontier, a misfit that dreams of a better life. As such, he collects other outsiders struggling to make it and brings them into his family. He finds a brother in Hosea when they try to rob each other, similar to Anakin finding a brother in Obi-Wan Kenobi, and the two form the bedrock of the Van Der Linde Gang. Dutch then finds sons in Arthur and John , another pair of unfortunate kids trying to survive, and the stage is set for Dutch's series of betrayals in RDR2 . As Anakin turned his back on Obi-Wan and caused Padme's demise, so too does Dutch turn his back on Hosea and set in motion the destruction of John and Art

Actions in Red Dead Redemption 2 have consequences. There are a number of story-altering decisions that players will have to make as they progress through the main missions in the game. One such decision is whether to kill Jean-Marc in the "Idealism and Pragmatism for Beginners" side quest. Jean-Marc is the Lieutenant of the Saint Denis' mayor named Henri Lemieux. Players will pick up the quest after they receive a letter from the mayor following the "Gilded Cage" quest.

The three main characters of Grand Theft Auto V are quite good, and Trevor is an undeniable icon of gaming. But the cast of Red Dead Redemption 2 is simply on another level. Like GTA V , it contains a beloved protagonist in Arthur Mor

Many people criticize the open world of Red Dead Redemption 2 crafting Dead Redemption 2 for being too large and too expansive, with some horse rides taking fifteen or twenty minutes. This was intentional. Luckily, Rockstar has peppered the game with an incredible amount of detail, and there's always something fun to

This sequence, while probably terrifying for the passengers, is a relatively violence-free RDR2 robbery . Arthur keeps his gun pointed toward the roof of the car for the most part, only occasionally firing a shot to hurry up skittish or stubborn passengers. It isn’t until the back car is searched where things go awry and Arthur needs to save Sean, which results in four guards being shot. Shortly after, the law finds their way to the halted train, and thus begins s shootout with a couple of dozen lawmen. Once the lawmen need to recoup, the gang escapes on horseb

Rockstar has been one of the most acclaimed developers of this generation, largely for the incredible narratives it creates. While the GTA franchise is certainly Rockstar's crown jewel, the studio's most impressive narrative is arguably the story told throughout Red Dead Redemption _ and Red Dead Redemption 2 _ . Choosing to move back in time with RDR2 made a lot of sense given how the original game ended. Making a direct sequel would have been tricky at the least, but beyond that, Rockstar's decision to move back in time actually changes the overall direction of the entire franchise and possibly for RDR3 as w

The conflicts are certainly different for Anakin and Dutch, the outcomes even more so, but the nature of their stories is still very similar. They are both characters who bring about the very things they are trying to avoid in their quest for the life they want. Blinded by selfishness and greed, they each make mistake after mistake not realizing they are creating their own downfall, from rushing into situations without proper planning to trusting people they know they shouldn't. A hero's demise and the rise of a villain are timeless tales in every form of literature, and Red Dead Redemption _ and Red Dead Redemption 2 _ already set in motion that narrative for Dutch. This, paired with the fact that moving forward in time with RDR3 presents massive struggles, makes continuing the prequel trajectory an ideal fit. Doing so gives fans the opportunity to see a young Dutch van der Linde in a similar way that Star Wars fans saw the boy who would one day become Darth Va
