Red Dead Redemption 2 is a large and expansive game. Like all of Rockstar 's other open-world titles, the map is filled with unique areas, all of which have their own distinct look and personality. Whereas the first game in the series was a more straightforward Western, Red Dead Redemption 2 forgoes most of the Western trappings in favor of more mountainous, lush, green, and even swampy ar

New Austin is by far one of the most unique locations of Red Dead Redemption 2 , a barren and expansive desert in a game otherwise filled with greenery, trees, and rivers. While the area is nothing but a modern recreation of the first game's map, it does enough to differentiate itself from the 2010 origi

He does this all by himself, thinking he can get Bill to come down with words alone. And when that doesn't work, he reaches for his gun and is promptly shot in the side. It's an interesting scene and incredibly dramatic. Without context, it also makes John seem diplomatic and brave.

**Red Dead Redemption 2 ** has its fair share of train robberies amongst its many bank heists and other various jobs. Maybe it's because train robberies are a staple of the old west that they’re used so often, but nevertheless RDR2 makes each train robbery feel different and keeps them spread apart enough so that the player can enjoy their time with the mission instead of it feeling like it’s the same mission repeatedly.

Charles Kinnear is convinced he can create wings that will allow him to launch himself off a cliff and land safely on the ground. Obviously, he can’t - but helping him collect the items he needs to build his wings is worth it to watch the l

While attending Charles Chatenay's gallery showing, chaos erupts as the dainty people of St. Denis realize the man has painted their loved ones all in the nude. As they slap their way in and out of the gallery, Arthur has a rambunctious and highly entertaining time, and it's truly a pleasure for players to wa

In a poignant moment, John watches his son read out loud to him, and he finds himself tuning out what Jack is saying not because he finds it uninteresting, but because he is finally happy. He's finally gotten the family life he wanted, and he gets to watch his son grow up to be whoever he wants to be. While the "real" ending may differ ever so slightly, it's a moment worth treasuring all the s

But his sense of loyalty towards the gang keeps him from acting selfishly, and so he's relegated to watching Mary walk away once again, while he's left standing al

Arthur Morgan truly is at his worst when dealing with the Downes family. It makes certain thematic sense, as Thomas Downes inadvertently gives Arthur TB , which of course, leads to his physical deterioration. In a certain karmic way, Arthur is cosmically punished while at his most morally repugn
