First Time Playing Red Dead Redemption (We're Back In The Saddle!) - Part 1

[@allthegoodnamesaretaken02]

You might not remember so heres a quick non spoiler refresher. that guy with the mustache who was escorting john in the opening was Edgar Ross. He was Milton's right hand man who you met when you went fishing with jack, and who lead the raid against the gang when Arthur died. In the end credits after you killed micah, he followed the trail back and tracked down john and his family. So unfortunatly it was because john killed micah that everything in this game takes place. excited for the series!

[@ebrahim_al_mutawa]

@@allthegoodnamesaretaken02 I’m sure the only people who noticed were the people who played the original game first. You’d instantly recognize him in 2 but he wouldn’t seem very significant to people who didn’t know who he was from the beginning

[@ecp7239]

Possibly my favorite game of all time. Enjoy!

[@panther332]

So glade to see you back with Red Dead Redemption. I enjoyed watching you play RDR2. I look forward to watching you play RDR1. This is a great game also. Have fun and take your time looking around.

[@Cambonano]

Thank you! I'm so happy you enjoyed watching the journey through RDR2. I hope you'll enjoy RDR as well :D

[@shocktail2001]

That opening piano part takes me back every time. 😭

[@RobsRobertson]

@@shocktail2001 the whole intro with the music and dialogues makes me get goosebumps hard.

[@murphymoerf]

"You're talking to a former equestrian... 😎" **gets bucked off after 5 seconds** 😂😂💪

[@ESPirits87]

It's not a Remake, it just runs at a higher resolution natively. A very good looking game considering the age.

[@binho2224]

Its looking good, but I was expecting more with that price. Its the first time we will be able to play with M+Kb, so I get it on sale eventually.

[@bastiwen]

Yup, just a (well done) port. For $50 though I expected more than just a port.

[@Loading676]

@@binho2224 Well it is 2024 Rockstar

[@sweetpotato8289]

only problem is the price

[@CipherNine]

Don’t worry. Every single let’s play I’ve seen of this game (and I’ve seen around 10 or so) every single person thought Jake was uncle lol

[@Cambonano]

I'm very relieved to hear that! 😆🌻

[@YokaiSteve]

You're right, you did visit the ranch in RDR2 but Bonnie was away. Which is a nice little setup into RDR1 as to why she wasn't around or she'd recognize John. Love your vids!

[@lynette50]

Yet in red dead online, you can do missions for Bonnie and for Sadies husband Jake

[@YokaiSteve]

@@lynette50 Online is set before the story of RDR2 so it makes sense.

[@hawaii2k]

I've never been that emotionally invested in a playthrough as I was with your journey through RDR2. It's a joy to see you returning to this one. If you asked me if I liked this one or the second one better, I would have a difficult time to answer.

[@illstreamthat]

It was very common for bigger ranches to have their own general store. It made it easier for their workers to get things they needed without spending a day to go to the nearest town.

[@michaausleipzig]

Hey there!! You wouldn't believe how happy seeing that thumbnail just made me. This feels like old times already, count me in! Now, I haven't played red dead one but I'm happy to just go along with you!

[@fakeninja4447]

57:30 It wasn't glitched, I'm pretty sure you just killed the guy who needed to be saved LOL. Anyway I can't wait for this playthrough to continue!!

[@Mr.Sequiro]

When RDR1 released it was incredible, clearly ahead of its time in so many areas, floored people absolutely beautiful to look at. Then RDR2 came out years later and did it again. Its so wonderful that people get to experience it on the PC now finally and with a few modern graphical enhancements/settings options for FPS, Resolution, lighting. It looks so crisp and plays so well. The fact that everyone thats picked it up the past couple weeks now most are like "this looks pretty" on a 14 year old game is a testament to just how well they did. RDR1 you'll fall quickly into on controls and gameplay features, RDR2 expanded on pretty much everything. So gameplay wise its a very much "simpler" experience, its the core/heart of what RDR2 was built upon basically. I'm envious of you playing them backwards for the story, you'll have far more investment I feel. Like your encounter there with Bill. You rode with that man, you know Bill, those of us that played this on release didn't have any context for who these men were. You have that connection with them and this world.

[@Coolcoolcoolcoo]

Man it's weird seeing this game so crisp and clear. I played it a hundred times when I was younger and I'm so used to the 360 era quality.

[@DavidGowers]

I love this game, and John, so much! Glad to see you back in the saddle, and I hope you fit Undead Nightmare in somewhere.

[@thunderspike1892]

If you had played RDR before RDR2 you would have noticed that Bonnie McFarlane was mentioned a few times. There was the big boulder with a lot of names. It has the BM branding mark. On a beach you find a man with a letter adressed to Bonnie McFarlane and when exploring as John in the epilogue you could visit the McFarlane Ranch. But they were absent because of the plague in the area. Of course because John couldn't meet Bonnie before RDR. She was in the Red Dead Online though.

[@lobid9585]

So good to see you in the rdr Universe .. playing one of my favorite games..looking forward to watch this… by the way you talk to people by pressing O on the controller

[@c11p]

Cam! I was gonna buy this game soon but now that my favorite RDR KZbinr is back, I'll just watch for now.

[@LaertesStrongCoffee]

I think it's way better to experience this game by yourself first if it's not a problem. Really recommend. I remember watching a KZbinr play and then having my playthrough and it was worth it. Not only by the choices you can make in here but the way you can play is always different from other people. Specially if you're curious and might have a different approach to stuff that watching others play could be considered very linear and absolute. I enjoyed a lot better making my way and discovering mechanics and exploring things outside the box. You should buy it. This game is awesome and has a lot of things that RDR2 has not and I wish the developers kept it. Like blind fire from cover, pay bribes and disguising yourself to enter in gang camps. Disarm enemies and incapacitating them by limbs or watch them shoot their own foot haha, treasure hunt and various side missions that only unlock if you visit all places in all corners but most players don't even know about those because they think the game is finished. Even if you watch all of her gameplay, still a good experience buying this one for yourself later at least.

[@Ronuk1996]

​@R.I.P.LaerteSatan I agree there is allot RDR1 has but there's allot 2 has that one does not. You can talk your wayout trouble with a witness in 2 and it's depends on the personality if they believe you or not. A Disaguise system with Manhunt 2 environment talk downs would be great for stealth. But both Games feel similar but very differnt, they also differnt types of Wssterns as well.

[@LaertesStrongCoffee]

@@Ronuk1996 RDR2 Is one of my favorites games but sometimes gets me in my nerves by how outdated some of the basics stuff are. The wanted system is so broken in my opinion and the bandana thing is so useless most of the time. I wish Rockstar could fix those things. The fast travels are so immersive in RDR1 but in 2 they just make it like a boring cutscene and you're already there. In every ways of traveling. RDR1 you can actually choose to enjoy the ride and tell the driver to slow down or go faster, change seats and shoot using the windows. Get out whenever you want and also travel to the marked spot in your map. RDR2 not even the setting camp works properly haha it annoys me so much. But yeah despite it's outdated designs RDR2 is amazing but the first one will always be revolutionary for it's time and I even think most people should start for 1 but fortunately or unfortunately most people only heard about 2. Thankfully now RDR1 is in PS4.

[@texpire6828]

I Found your channel a few days ago i like how you play Story games

[@Cambonano]

Welcome! :D

[@LittleGalaxyBoy]

The entire area you explored in Exploring Armadillo & Bounty Hunting w/ Sadie - Red Dead Redemption 2 - Part 38 was of course part of the original Red Dead Redemption map so this is such a fun little re-introducing to the map a few years later in 1911. The RDR1 map includes the State of New Austin, along with the Tall Trees and Great Plains regions in West Elizabeth, all situated below the Upper Montana River, which flows into Flat Iron Lake. There's of course notable differences between the two games, such as Blackwater now having a train station with tracks running through the Great Plains, an addition not present in Red Dead Redemption 2. These new tracks connect Blackwater to the State of New Austin, connecting it to towns like Armadillo, allowing visitors from the East, such as Blackwater and beyond to travel to these towns to "experience the Wild West." New Austin itself is primarily inspired by Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, and the Mojave Desert. Designed to capture the classic Wild West, Texas along with these other States do exist as well. In my head canon New Austin could be a slice of Texas that formed at the same time or broke away as it's own State. So that should give you an idea of where you are on this fictional U.S Map. On the other side of the Upper Montana River north of Blackwater lies the RDR2 map. You'll also notice a whole new region to the south of New Austin, across the river, that wasn't present in Red Dead Redemption 2. The names provide a hint to its origins, but I'll let you discover this for yourself, as it's one of my favorite locations in the game.

[@alexmoreau539]

This very good!) Thank you and welcome back in RDR.😃

[@scarletkinkajou1]

As someone who played this game when it first came out I love to see someone playing it after RDR2 to see the various reactions to events

[@rohassel]

This is one of my all time favorite games. I played it back in 2013. The atmosphere in this game is magical. I'm really gonna enjoy this playthrough. Cheers from Norway 😎

[@Dempo13]

I so glad your back i love your rdr2 vids you will have fun hope you enjoy

[@backlandjbreaker24]

My heart skipped a beat 😂❤

[@jessebailey5962]

YEESSSSS finally the legendary John Marston.

[@theraineydaze19]

I love Rdr1 blind playthroughs from Rdr2 veterans! It's funny seeing the reverse reactions, in 2 I was shocked to see a young Bill lol. Thanks for playing it!

[@jakehamilton9352]

Brilliant again 😁 When those save-somebody-from-being-hanged side missions pop up it's best to shoot the rope as the first thing you do when you arrive on the scene. That way the person drops to the ground before they can die and you can then shoot the lynch gang. 👍 Can't wait to see you play this. Your RDR2 was my favourite KZbin playthrough of that game 😉

[@DarkPrinceEV]

Glad to see you started this Cam! Already can't wait for the next eps.

[@bo_said_so]

Finally let’s go Cam

[@Ronuk1996]

Loved your RDR2 playthough looking forward to this The Ragdoll physics are amazing in this game.

[@Deymbro]

OH YES HERE WE GO!!!! The series that made me discover cam is back!

[@tiffanybowling5294]

I am so glad to see you back with red dead redemption I loved your rdr2 videos !

[@ebrahim_al_mutawa]

Some ranches in Texas are bigger than entire countries so yeah it would be normal for there to be a store for provisions etc.

[@erikstenberg3122]

I enjoyed watching your videos for rdr2. This game is great! You will love it. So glad you are doing this one as well.

[@kinGsaL1515]

WE ARE BAAAAACK Even. I've never played/seen this gam except a few moments so this should be fun

[@darkwolf7376]

you won't see sadie or charles and you won't hear about them or arthur or most of the other gang members but 3 of them the others were written for RDR2

[@ammrshfz]

So thrilled to see you play this!!! very capitivating gameplay this game has!!!

[@modernrock5556]

Amazing game! Im sure you're gonna love Undead Nightmare.

[@saxonrains]

Now that its on PC I'm going to play this at the end of the year, enjoyed your playthrough of rdr2. I'll come back and watch this playthough after I play it myself.

[@darkwolf7376]

tip about the horses every 3 times you hear their hoofs hit the ground, press to sprint once if you time it right you can move straight across the map and even easily beat bonnie in that race without ever running out of stamina. and at a decent rate of speed

[@LaertesStrongCoffee]

You can press circle to greet people and sometimes John can reply automatically when convenient. They certainly improved that in the second game as you already know. In this game you can do a lot of things that you cannot in the second one but you'll have to get used to it and remember a LOT of controls and resources because this one won't take you by the hand like RDR2. The horse's controls are simple and you just need to hold buttons than keep pressing it. You can also check the pause menu for look into the watch and know what time it is because there is so many time where a mission can't happen for not being the right time. If you can, check the stores and different ones for new things to buy every now and often when updates, like buying a bandana to hide your identity and not lose honor doing things that can compromise your ways. Getting money easier doing crimes is cool haha. Just some basic tips that the game leave to the player and not of than can forget or not notice. The duels are also tricky but if you can't make yourself to kill them by a single shot just press square and hit the last shot mark. The game has some features that do not show in the tutorial unfortunately. You can also shoot their guns to disarm them and not kill them. Sorry for the long ass comment but I hope you enjoy this game. Have a good time!😊

[@Craig-ug7eo]

Hey Cam I remember you saying you might play this I'm glad you decided to, I hope you enjoy it as much as RDR 2

[@peloquin5652]

Lenny LENNY MY BOY!!!! oh no wrong game

[@RS-nl5ks]

Good to see you play RDR after RDR2 Miss Denmark. Gonna follow year vlogs. Do not glide of your chair by seeing John ;-)

[@Sharjoom]

All right! I was waiting for this. Outlaws for life!

[@fabiog9447]

I am so Happy! You made my day Cam 💯

[@rainvictor]

OMG I've been waiting for this 🤩

[@AnthonyEmmel]

Yay! Cam is back in the Old West! Can't wait for your reacts! What I do want to see is you playing Skyrim! Almost have to play a Nord!

[@j.w.burresguitars6071]

Cambonano! Loved your RDR2 play through and will be here for RDR1. Hope you enjoy!

[@VoiceofVoiceless-d4f]

'Get the hell outta here and Be a goddamn MAN' the line that made John the Legendary JOHN MARSTON

[@froeyjabeth8913]

Yes, been waiting on this!

[@binho2224]

Oh you are in for a wild ride!!! And so are we! Lets hope you don't find any strange thing or man along the way.

[@tonydeluna8095]

Love your hair today Cambonano! Hell yes, back to some Red Dead Redemption!!!

[@Nixruz]

yes you are finally playing this!

[@johnnymoreno5065]

Charles and Sadie are alive during this timeline but there not mention in the game because back then those two names weren't thought of as much

[@darkside6108]

The one thing I like about the 1st one is you can carry all your guns instead of calling your horse everytime

[@jabr0nidave262]

This game looks holds up so well, for a game from 14 years ago

[@sillymonkE73]

This made me so happy. Enjoy.

[@gamermanofficial]

Oh, as far as I know, Scandinavian people love to play Liar's Dice. You'll love playing it in this game too haha. Btw ride your horse as slowly as possible, otherwise you will miss the main mission dialogs much easier than in RDR2.😅And you better play with Keyboard and mouse. Shooting will be 10 times easier and better lol.

[@joeb918]

Of all the mini games in all games, I she’s Liar’s Dice the most.

[@scarletkinkajou1]

Horse riding is more forgiving in this, which leads me to think people who play this first are more prone to crash in RDR2 at first.😄

[@El_Michoakano1990]

All you had to do is shoot the dam rope Cam! 😂

[@NL-SanderH89]

Great you’re playing this, and i love that you picked the pc version. Way better framerate for one.

[@DustRaiser]

Only played RDR once and while I liked it, I had a lot of bugs and glitches, but I heard the new PC port is pretty good. Have fun, you experiencing it will be interesting, since you've played the second one first. :)

[@MrIcelander]

"Uncle?? Not uncle, sorry!" is how First Time Playing tells games play order without saying 😏

[@joakimhwrenkler]

Super glad this series is finally happening, unfortunately though, I have to play and complete the game before I want to watch :(

[@AlexandruCarjan]

46:00 this takes place 3 years after the Epilogue in RDR 2 lots of things change in 3 years

[@lobid9585]

Actually 4 years after

[@lieutenantkhaos]

It's not a remake, this is what it looked like in 2010. But thankfully you got the PC version.

[@la912]

Nice! Good start

[@scarletkinkajou1]

If Arthur were around I don’t think he’d sit quietly on that train between those two conversations

[@nrrork]

16:10 The thing that always bugged me on repeat playthroughs is, why the hell are Bonnie and her ranch hands riding past Fort Mercer. It's clear on the other side of New Austin from her ranch, it's known gang territory. You don't question it the first time because you don't know Bonnie or the geography of the area yet, but it's odd when you revisit it.

[@scarletkinkajou1]

One thing about this game ( I don’t know if they did anything porting to PC) is the over abundance of certain predators, like literal herds of bears and cougars on occasion.

[@fabiog9447]

I think this is the same rach you visited in the rdr2 epilogue! A quick note on the side, you can still say hello to them by pressing circle while you are very close to them. It doesn't always work first try tho

[@candle2005]

HAHAH YESSS BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

[@murphymoerf]

Too bad Arthur, John & Cam ate all the baked beans in RDR2 so there are none at all in this game 😭😭 I hope you enjoy it regardless 😄🙌

[@DBoone123]

Yas, missed watching you play red dead games

[@Sev1439]

Oh yes! Back in the saddle yee haw 🤠

[@SwimKhan26]

When we gonna see ya don a cowgirl hat for the videos haha? Would be way more immersive, trust me. (I totally didn't do that when playing both games, no ma'am 😂)

[@AlexandruCarjan]

35: 02 yeah it happens when you don't read the prompt that was shown to you 2 times about how the horse mechanic works in this game, one time when you were riding with Jake and one time right when the race was happening :))))

[@SallyCat84]

I haven’t finished this game yet but I was getting into it.

[@Granfoss]

Did you just call me a baked bean?!? … 😂 I’ll take it! 🤓

You can greet people by pressing B/Circle

[@elnao3349]

A great surprise!

[@neabby]

This game is so freakin funny lol

[@onemoreturn]

This game has some really crazy characters. Also, Bill really went psycho between 1899 and 1911. I mean, yeah, he stood by Dutch to the bitter end, but he was not a monster like Micah, just a dumb tool being used by Dutch.

[@Documan_545]

I know that many people think otherwise but for me the first Red Dead Redemption is much more fun than the second. The first one has the perfect pace, but the second one seemed too slow to me.

[@conpa18dany]

We are baaack

[@Eraldo_Coil]

I dont know if anyone told you or if you figured it out yourself, but you CAN talk to people in this game, albeit it’s very very simple and not as detailed as RDR2. But if you get that urge to talk to people just press O (for PlayStation) or B (for Xbox)

[@Ronuk1996]

Use circle to talk in this game if you have low honour John will antagonise automatically with high honour he will great.

[@ColinWard-yg6mr]

You will love Red Dead Redemption 1 one of my favourite games of all time!

If you stayed and did the other Bonnie mission you’d got your lasso
