Speaking to a nun reveals the woman ran off to the cemetery with her old pimp. John confronts the man, who is digging a grave after accidentally killing her. John duels the pimp, killing him and avenging the woman. It’s a rather sad conclusion to Eva’s story, showing just how dangerous life was in the Old West. It’s unlike most of RDR1 ‘s Stranger Missions, which usually feature moments of lev
Before meeting Dutch, he was a masterful con artist, and briefly, a stage actor too. He dreamed of becoming a comedian, although we all know he later ended up joining Dutch’s outlaw gang. If it wasn’t for Hosea, God only knows how far Dutch would have g
Javier escaped to the US sometime in the late 1890s after killing an influential figure in his hometown. Later, he met Dutch when he was trying to steal some chickens, and soon enough, he was offered a spot in the g
From the very beginning of the game, players become all too familiar with the town of Blackwater. From character anecdotes and dialogue it’s clear that something of major consequence happened there and the gang will likely never be able to step foot in it ag
The next two encounters found near Cueva Seca and Gaptooth Ridge respectfully, have Odessa going insane from the heat and exhaustion. The last encounter is located near Tumbleweed, where Odessa is found dead. John must take a letter from Odessa’s body and deliver it to a telegram station, completing this mission. Odessa was a pretty entertaining character with noble intentions, so it’s a shame that the end of this mission saw him dead and (mostly) forgotten. In most of Rockstar’s Games, idealism and naivety are punished severely, and Odessa’s fate is a great exam
As his name signifies, the Strange Man is strange. He takes an interest in John at some point, meeting with him during the events of the first game, and references John’s life in the gang. The last meeting takes place very close to Beecher’s H
Humans have long believed that aliens have already visited Earth to observe humans. What if this happened during the turn of the century when outlaws and the wild west was becoming civilized? In Red Dead Redemption 2 , players can come across such an event. After finding a not in a shack north of Emerald Station, discovering a rock circle on Mount Shann’s summit, and returning to the shack at night, players are greeted to a green glow emanating from a flying object in the sky which is a
Born in 1877, Abigail Roberts turned into a prostitute before joining the gang. Back in days, she grew up as an orphan, or according to Rockstar’s official description, ‘Scraping out a living in dive bars and brothels in the West.’ Maybe that’s why she felt connected to John, the most above all the rest of the memb
John Marston was born in 1873 from a Scottish immigrant and a prostitute mother, who died during his birth. John was only 8 when he witnessed his father die after a bar fight and subsequently spent some years in an orphanage before running a
In the game’s epilogue players get to explore Blackwater as John Marston as he sets in motion the events that lead to his journey of redemption in Red Dead Redemption . Blackwater will forever be tied to most members of the Van Der Linde G
If Saint Denis is the Red Dead Redemption 2 equivalent to New Orleans, then Lagras is very much the bayou. The swamplands of the south can be quite scary when you consider that it’s often home to less than savory people and can also be a breeding ground for voodoo and witchcr
One could argue that the most underrated character in all of Red Dead Redemption 2 is Charles Smith. This Native American powerhouse is not only an accomplished fighter and stand-up guy by game Strategies‘s end, but he also ends up being incredibly loyal to Arthur Morgan posthumously via John Mars
It is fun to go back and see the difference between Arthur’s section of the journal and John’s section. Either way, it is nice John carried on Arthur’s tradition of writing about the events of his l
The Braithwaite Manor is a location players will visit during the game’s narrative and is the center of a family romance feud not too dissimilar to the one found in Shakespeare’s _Romeo & Juliet _ . While you’re on the estate do yourself a favor and explore the land behind the house. You can come across an outhouse that’s chained and locked up, with the sound of a woman’s voice coming from inside it. She sounds deranged and slightly off, but it’s unclear if she’s a prisoner, or maybe something a bit more sinister in nat
Three years later, he committed his first murder and faced a hanging punishment when he was 12. Dutch stepped in to save the young boy and introduced him to the gang, consisted only of Dutch, Arthur, Ms. Grimshaw, and Ho
While meaning to do good, some of these stranger missions in RDR1 can have an unfortunate outcome. Of course, this is more of an exception than the norm, and shouldn’t dissuade any player from seeking out RDR1 ‘s Stranger missions and seeing what they have to offer. After all, the world of Red Dead Redemption is a rich and diverse one, and these side missions make it feel more fleshed out and lived in. It gives players an excuse to explore this wonderful world and interact with every handcrafted element. The detail in this title has helped establish its reputation as one of the finest Rockstar games ever made, which is hefty praise given the record of this beloved develo
