In one of these timelines, which includes the first four games of the series and the Oracle games, Link is defeated by Ganondorf, the main villain of the story. This is also the only timeline in which the royal family of Hyrule eventually gets the whole Trifor
While Dutch may not have a Chosen One-type prophecy driving his narrative, it would be hard to convince him of it. Dutch believes unequivocally that he is destined to make a utopia for him and his own that fits his fantasy of a free frontier. The original Red Dead Redemption showed Dutch at the very end of his journey when he had no cards left up his sleeve, but even then the enigmatic leader had the last word and ended things on his own terms. When the story roles back to the downfall of the Van Der Linde Gang in RDR2, players see a much more nuanced Dutch with more of the charm and bravado for which he’s known, but that slowly fades as the story progresses. Even as the game foreshadows that he is getting sloppy and erratic, Dutch still showcases hints at the man he was , who was able to inspire all the members to follow
Initially, Red Dead Redemption was a simple tale of a reformed outlaw trying desperately to turn from his wicked ways and make an honest life for his family while constantly being dragged back in because of his old gang. Following Arthur Morgan and the Van Der Linde Gang through RDR2, though, made the narrative a larger tale about a complete family of outlaws struggling to continue their way of life set against the backdrop of a rapidly changing frontier as the lawless West gave way to civilization. In doing so, Rockstar made the Van Der Linde Gang and its leader Dutch van der Linde the actual main characters of the franchise, which makes the perfect narrative for Red Dead Redemption 2 Reviews Dead Redemption 3 to explore the origins of Dutch van der Linde in a similar way the Star Wars prequels showcased the rise and fall of Anakin Skywalker. While the western frontier of Red Dead may not be as fraught with heroic saviors and malevolent villains, the tale of a hopeful and ambitious Robin Hood figure turned narcissistic megalomaniac is equally as compelling as the origins of Darth Va

There’s no denying that John Marston plays a huge role in Red Dead Redemption 2 . He and Arthur’s brotherly relationship is constantly expounded on, and John’s character development is necessary for shaping the John that players know and love from the first g
They write, “The gunplay is way too easy and the stakes of the story seem so small . I don’t feel like the game has big enough consequences to really engage me and the fact that I can abuse the auto-lock aim system doesn’t help.” Quite an unpopular opinion, especially considering players have the option to turn auto-lock

For Anakin Skywalker, his motivator was the love for his family. Anakin’s inability to prevent his mother’s death and his fear of losing Padme exacerbate his transformation, but the seeds of this change were present even before. Anakin was always brash and struggled to control his emotions, often acting in the moment without thinking through his actions. Dutch’s love is more abstract than loving another person, but the love of an ideal is just as powerful and dangerous if it’s not pursued with care. Dutch is not without the motivations of wanting a family, though. Little is revealed about Dutch’s life before the gang , but the pieces that RDR2 does show displays his longing for a family that is free of the burdens of the front
