Before going any further, we need to address the ludonarrative dissonance in the room. Ludonarrative dissonance is when the story told by the narrative doesn’t fit the story reinforced by the gameplay. It was first applied to Nathan Drake of Uncharted fame to discuss the oxymoronic nature of a charming rogue who has killed thousands of peo
Arthur’s level of honor alters several things throughout the adventure. One of the more subtle changes is his spirit animal . An honorable player will see bright images of a deer at certain moments during the story. Whereas, those who act immorally will witness dark scenes of a coyote inst
If Dutch was the gang’s father figure, then Susan Grimshaw was the mother. Along with Arthur & Hosea Matthews , Ms. Grimshaw was one of the gang’s original members in the early days. Before joining the gang, she had a romantic relationship with an unnamed fiancé, who eventually passed away la
On the second playthrough, though, they know that there is still a lot of the game left once Arthur perishes. So, they’re more inclined to search around the world a bit. And they should, as there are multiple hidden interactions to find as John. Players can locate and talk to the likes of Tilly (in Saint Denis near the tailor shop), Mary-Beth (train station in Valentine), and more, to see how they’re do
Although in the main territory there are 12 legendary animals, four more are in the spoiler territory of the game. Four sit in Lemoyne, two are in New Hanover, five are in Ambarino, and one resides in West Elizabeth. These 12 are going to be the legendaries players can get to fi
However, even after giving her medicine, Jenny will refuse a ride to town. She will say she can do anything through faith, despite John begging to bring her to town. It’s a small moment that shows just how scorching the heat of the desert is, leading to people losing their grip on reality. After all, Jenny thought that Marston was sent by God himself to give medicine to
But despite his obvious affection for her, John is not tempted. It bucks the trend of so many AAA games, in that feelings are made obvious, but never acted on. For the writers to make that choice for John would sacrifice who he is at his c
In the center of Bayou NWA, just south of Lagras, along the river players can find the legendary bull gator. Before hunting down this giant white gator, Arthur will have to complete the chapter four story mission Country Pursuits. This is the most difficult of all the legendary animals to kill and will take several shots to be downed. Players should keep a good distance as the bull gator will charge and once Arthur is locked in its jaws, he is unlikely to win the fight. Sniping the head is the best option for hitting vital organs. Be wary in the swamplands and try to stay out of the water.

In hardest rdr2 Challenges , Arthur and John can interact with virtually every NPC. Although, the ones they probably talk to the most are the shopkeepers. And if those conversations don’t go well, players can choose to inflict punishment on the poor business own
Next, much like GTA Online , we have Red Dead Online ‘s silent protagonist, and it’s up to you to decide your protagonist’s name, gender, or even appearance. At some point, the protagonist was arrested for the wrongful murder of Phillip LeCl
Another thing that changes depending on a player’s honor is the dialogue in certain missions. An Arthur with high honor is noticeably warmer than the low honor version. Even the way others talk about the Outlaw changes depending on how noble he’s b
Back in the days, he was a lone wolf native American who lived by his own moral code. However, things changed when his favorite cousin, Red Harlow, needed his help on his quest to find Colonel Daren, the murderer of his pare
John takes no pleasure in what he has to do, but he does it because he is a man of honor, and a man of honor can be manipulated in this world of chaos. If the roles were reversed and any of John’s former allies were in his place, the only thing that might motivate them is gr
In the 1890s, Red Harlow caught himself in the middle of a mess after Colonel Daren and his group of bandits attacked their ranch and killed his parents in the process. This event angered him, and he promised himself that he was never going to stop. He would later meet his cousin, Shadow Wolf, and other characters to make his way to the man responsible for his parents’ de
In the furthest western corner of Lemoyne near the Old Greenbank Mill, Arthur can find the legendary coyote. This creature is one of the harder ones to come across naturally and will truly take a hunter’s gaze to find. Tracking throughout the hills in this area tends to find the coyote the quickest. Be careful to stalk and not race after the tracks as the coyote is speedy and will take off at the slightest idea that it is being hunted. Though fast and stealthy, this coyote can be taken down with one good shot.
