As Arthur begins to help John out of his snowy predicament, John says this quote in a manner of classic Marston sarc
Few games have taken the approach Red Dead Redemption 2 has. With the first game being a smash hit, it’s hard to follow up with a game that relates and continues to further the story. Yet that is exactly what Rockstar did here. John Marston was already one of the most complete characters in gaming history, and Red Dead Redemption 2 gave players so much more backstory and reasoning for the events of the first g
The most important aspect of Molly’s “betrayal” is that it gets the heat off of the actual rat, Micah Bell. Throughout the game, Micah is built up as the clear antagonist. He is Arthur’s foil, actively going against the gang’s best wishes but managing to win Dutch’s respect, affection, and admiration. Without Molly giving herself up, Micah is the obvious culp
Unfortunately, it actually contradicts rather important information from the first game where John claimed he hadn’t seen Dutch since he left the game. Clearly, this mission takes place long after that fact. Either way, it’s an interesting narrative beat even if it doesn’t make sense. Plus, it directly ties itself into the first game once the credits are thro
He quickly realizes his mistake and tries to cover it by saying Jim Milton right after saying John, but the damage is done. Mr. Gedes assistant Mr. Dickens realizes it immediately and gives a look at John of curiosity. Mr. Dickens also mocks him directly after saying “You hear that John Jim”. This was a heart-dropping moment for players rooting for John Marston to keep things under cont
It perhaps goes without saying considering John never once mentions him in the first game, but Arthur Morgan does not survive the events of _ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ . This is always something to be mindful of with a prequel, but it isn’t as if Arthur couldn’t have survived. It wouldn’t have made for as compelling a narrative, but it could have wor
When telling John to leave when the time comes, Arthur and John go back and forth over whether its right or not to leave. Arthur promptly tells him that loyalty is all he ever knew, but follows this up by saying “but not anymore Jo
When collecting debt money owed from Mr. Downes, it ultimately leads to the father’s untimely passing. This is done either by Arthur repeatedly beating the man and killing him on the spot or him succumbing to his injuries later. Arthur then comes back to the family and has quite an interesting conversation with Mrs. Dow
We can’t forget Abigail Roberts for being the voice of reason and an integral character in Red Dead Redemption 2 ‘s story. John impregnated Abigail with their baby boy when she was eighteen. It was Uncle who introduced her to the Van der Linde g
When approached by Agent Milton right after having his son stolen by the Braithwaite’s John is scared and nervous. Having killed many of the Braithwaite’s, stealing their horses and moonshine, John believes his son might soon be hurt to which Dutch, Hosea, and Arthur do their best to convince him otherwise. During the conversation, Agent Milton finds the camp and approaches them making dema
Arthur’s fate is a rather tragic one. Along with contracting an incredibly fatal disease, his relationship with Dutch deteriorates as well over the course of the game. His father figure, Dutch is a man Arthur clearly looks up to. At least initially. The longer _ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ goes on, the worse their relationship beco
An indie 2D puzzle-platformer standing next to giants as one of the best PlayStation 4 games to be released should let you know up front just how good Celeste is. Not only does it offer rewarding escalating challenges, but it delivers an emotionally relatable story of someone trying to deal with their mental hea
Well, Guerilla Games managed to do exactly that when they released Horizon Zero Dawn in 2017. As players took on the role of Alloy, they quickly found that this was a rich and magnetic Open World games Walkthrough that felt ripe for exploration. When a new IP turns into a hit franchise that fans are now awaiting the sequel, it’s a truly special event in gam
For the longest time, it was assumed that any time Blizzard touched a new genre that their take would be polished and likely would quickly ascend to the top of said genre. When Overwatch was announced, a hero-based shooter, that took many of the ideas from multiplayer online battle arena games such as League of Legends or DOTA 2 , and mixed it with high-quality first-person shooting mechanics, the world stop
Imagine winning a Game of the Year award in 2012 and seeing your company disappear less than 8 years later. That’s exactly what happened to Telltale Games in the last year and it was mostly due to poor business management and plann
