Who knows how they figured Helen would be into men who can have bottles shot off their heads – but it’s pretty fun being the independent adjudicator for their constant one-upmanship. Plus, in the end, the twins become best friends again – so all’s well that ends w
Players who return for part 3 of the mission find that Dragic meets a pretty sticky end . But for those who don’t, Dragic’s big reveal turns into a pretty lackluster affair. Arthur sums it up with a trademark dry comment: “I just saw a machine waddle a few ste
There were many moments between Arthur and Dutch that demonstrated not only the vaguely abusive power dynamic between the two of them but also how important their relationship was to the overall story. However, their last interaction was by far the most stunning in its rawn
There’s nothing wrong with the dialogue in Grand Theft Auto V . It’s serviceable and it certainly does the job. But there’s nothing really great about it as it doesn’t stand out in any meaningful way. The dialogue of Red Dead Redemption 2 looks positively Shakespearean in compari
After a failed attempt to blow up the tracks and halt the train from heading inside a tunnel, the gang must race across the snowy hills to the backside and hop down onto the moving train as it leaves the opening. It’s then that Arthur and Lenny traverse their way across the train cars in a shootout with Cornwall’s guards as they head for the engine to stop the train. After shooting through the guards and putting a stop to the train, more guards emerge from the back of the train and in the surrounding hills. A massive shootout between the gang and the scores of Cornwall’s men erupts until there are no guards left standing. At the end of the mission, after blowing up the sealed metal doors with dynamite, Arthur also has the option to spare or kill the last of Cornwall’s men. This decision is solely up to whichever side of honor the player is shooting
While dying on a hill facing the sunrise, Arthur lays it all out for Dutch: how he was deceived, how John was the only winner in this situation, and how he truly gave Dutch all he had. And for the first time, Dutch seems to really see him and hear him, as he quietly listens with an intense gaze. This scene is cemented as a truly poetic moment in gaming, since while Arthur always deserved better, he does, in the end, get the death he wanted: with his loved ones safe, while he faces the
It’s a heartbreaking moment because players can tell Arthur really, really wants to, and even if they have reservations about Mary herself, ultimately they just want Arthur to be happy. 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
Now that you two have done so well. Both of you rich and living in big mansions with servants, and all them cattle. I remember when the height of your ambition was pretending you were a Londoner and seeing if you fooled those Scotch boys we met by the barracks. Funny thing is, Gavin never mentioned none of this in his letter, but he always was a bit of a quiet one and I reckon you wrote after he did. Either way, I am mode up for the pair of you. Made up. Cowboys! Millionaires! We miss
He gets an opportunity to be candid with a man who can relate to him, who understands that with the kinds of lives they both had and that the past is both meaningless and ultimately defining . John sums up the events of RDR2 quickly and easily, and Ricketts just laughs, because what else is there to do but laugh about it
The funniest mission across the whole red dead redemption 2 patch notes Dead franchise is Arthur’s infamous night out with Lenny. Suitably downplayed by the mission title, never has it been more fun to stumble around, half-cut, looking for your mate in a
As Arthur explicitly states, “We got lawmen in three different states after us.” The specific crimes aren’t known, but this is paramount to the FBI hunting down a gang of modern-day criminals. The gang members are charismatic, but they are not good peo
Once again, this quote sums up the basic theme of the entire game. Arthur displays some self-reflection in the above quote, acknowledging the facts that a) the gang is composed of thieves and bad guys, b) that this makes them social outlaws in an increasingly modernized and civilized world, and c) that they have no place in modern soci
This sequence, while probably terrifying for the passengers, is a relatively violence-free RDR2 robbery . Arthur keeps his gun pointed toward the roof of the car for the most part, only occasionally firing a shot to hurry up skittish or stubborn passengers. It isn’t until the back car is searched where things go awry and Arthur needs to save Sean, which results in four guards being shot. Shortly after, the law finds their way to the halted train, and thus begins s shootout with a couple of dozen lawmen. Once the lawmen need to recoup, the gang escapes on horseb
