John fed up with Dutch’s talk, demands What Plan, what Goddamn plan Dutch? It appears John has had enough of Dutch’s beating around the bush. In a mocking attempt to answer his own question John even starts naming locations to run too “Tahiti? Timbuktu?” Javier retorts “Enough what happened to loyalty?” To which John responds “Yeah, What d
In a typical video game, you are conditioned to root for or at least care about the character you are controlling. Unlike movies, you have the opportunity to participate in their entire arc, and even help them achieve their goals. In fact, it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that their goals gradually become your own. However, there are times when the most interesting character is not the one you are playing
The moment Red Dead fans have been waiting for, John’s first appearance in the sequel.

By the end of the game, Arthur is actively undermining Dutch to the point that his former benefactor outright tries to have him killed in the final mission. Dutch’s fading sanity is not a ship Arthur wants to sink on and he does everything he can to protect the Marston family from Dutch’s ma
The next GTA doesn’t need to get as dour as Arthur Morgan’s tale, but a black comedy can still have award-worthy dialogue and scenarios. One area that can still be improved upon is the heavy-handedness with which its themes are conveyed. Players are smart enough to understand subtext without having it banged over their he
She continues her tirade saying Jack will do something better than all of this. John quickly retorts back Like What? Writing silly stories? John has always had a weird relationship with his son, and the way he reacts to his son’s passion, hobby, and possible future involving reading and writing is terrible.

While Donkey Kong has had his own outings for the past two decades, the notable gorilla has not always been playable. In fact, video game vets will recognize that Mario of Super Mario fame made his first famous outing in the first Donkey Kong g
He would become cold in the snowy regions without his coat, but the frozen lakes did not have any effects on his health. It was a strange phenomenon and one we may never find the answers to and it is a question the creators will never expl

Nick Valentine isn’t the only robotic “clone.” The Halo series also has the intelligent and highly capable Cortana. She serves as the game’s pivotal AI figure and a partner to John 117. However, she didn’t just appear out of thin air. Her story is as captivating as you would expect for an AI the caliber of Cort
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
Tragically, the big spoiler isn’t that he has TB, but that he’s had TB since the start of Chapter 2. For the majority of the game, Arthur has had a symptomless disease waiting to eat away at him and it isn’t until he leaves Guarma that his constant coughing turns into something much wo
