Great games are no stranger to some of the biggest bugs. Sometimes ambition can be a curse, and when you’re doing something that’s never been done before, you’re bound to hit some bumps along the way. Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the most inventive games ever made , and so it follows that there are some seriously strange bugs that have slipped through the cra

Arthur Morgan’s hair actually grows throughout the game. If you’re not careful and do not get it taken care of, your hair can grow to extreme lengths. Arthur can look like quite the wild man. If your hair gets to be too long, you can take Arthur to a barber and get it trim

Card games like Poker and Blackjack have obviously been a staple many times over in past open world games–including Rockstar’s own Grand Theft Auto games– and yet Red Dead ‘s approach not only felt most appropriate to its setting and Western theme, but it incorporated so many more wrinkles to the typical game of cards than we might expect. Aside from the standard rules of Poker of trying to come out with the best hand (and the highest pot) at the end of the game, players also could look for tells among the other opponents on the table and see if they could come out ahead and gain an advantage. Even better was the fact that if you or another player were caught cheating in a game, the result would end up in a bloody gunfight for playing dirty.

So it really sucks when I’m clearly trying to do right by people, but, because some civilians got nudged a tad too roughly by my galloping horse, I suddenly become a villain. Regular townspeople can be a mite sensitive when it comes to how you interact with them…or around t

At one point, Morgan is confronted by Agents Milton and Ross – two of the agents from the Pinkerton Detective Agency – who insist on any information regarding the Van Der Linde gang. Morgan denies any knowledge of the gang’s whereabouts, but the agents make it clear that they don’t believe him and indicate that they’ll be back in to

One thing that actually really winds me up in Red dead redemption 2 Fishing Guide Dead is that when you die, you don’t lose your bounty. Come on now. If you’re up for a bit of gaminess, there is a solution. Spend or donate all of your cash, go to the local sheriff’s office, wherever you have a bounty where you have a bounty. Antagonize him (call him a yellow-belly or something), until he turns hostile. Surrender yourself. You’ll spend time in prison, and your bounty will be gone. You lose all your money if you can’t afford the bounty, but if you’ve got rid of it all, no prob

Have you ever had the intensely annoying experience of taking the time to take a perfect shot on an animal, only to be rewarded with a poor or good pelt? It’s barely mentioned in the game, but not every animal can give you a perfect pelt, no matter how gentle you are with it. To find out the quality of the pelt you’re going to get, equip your binoculars and hit R1/RB to study the animal before taking a shot. One to three pips will appear on next to the animal’s name, with three being the highest qual

Alongside the numerous missions, side quests, and random encounters that players in Red Dead Redemption could find, the map was also littered with a handful of Western minigames that could be played at your pleasure: Blackjack, Poker, Horseshoes, Liar’s Dice, and Arm Wrestling. While there were specific goals tied to each of the games that would contribute to a 100% completion in the game, the minigames by themselves were largely optional and inconsequential, in the grand scheme of things. Of course, many of the minigames also carried with them some significant rewards in the form of cold hard cash; Liar’s Dice in particular was a game that could be pretty financially lucrative, if you knew how to play the table right. But more than that, the minigames in Red Dead Redemption felt deeper than just fun distractions from the main story of John Marston.

The Blackwater Money is this huge pool of cash that is too hot to nab at the beginning of the game. Dutch, the gang’s leader, is the only one who knows where it is, and he’s keeping the location secret until things mellow

Minigames in open-world titles, by most accounts, can serve as bite-sized bits of variety in-between missions or while traveling across the map; good for some mild distraction, but usually not much more. But in the rare occasions, minigames like these can add a surprising amount to the believability and depth of a world beyond just its map size and scale. Given that I put in as much time into The Witcher 3 ‘s Gwent as I did in most other games by themselves, there’s certainly something to be said that when done well, open world minigames can add so much more to a believable game world in their own right. And inside the game’s world drenched in the imagery and themes of the Wild West, Red Dead Redemption ‘s minigames were definitely some of the best examples of that extra level of detail and immersion.
