From its story to its side missions to its random encounters and beyond, Red Dead Redemption 2 truly has no shortage of interesting content-and, behind it all, some interesting historical references. And, as far as random encounters are concerned, we’re almost done-at least for now-with a few more locations to visit, and a few more characters left to meet.

What game should I look into next? 👀

The first Call Of Duty Black Ops

Rdr1

@pufftiloe Ай бұрын

It could be interesting since Black Ops deals with more recent history and conspiracy

@ThomasNonnon Ай бұрын

Assassin's creed might be good but it's probably way less accurate than rdr2

I just wish they had done more with New Austin in story mode. It feels so empty with absolutely nothing to do besides hunt, collect a handful of bounties, and get a couple of dinosaur bone fossils.

@MuchWhittering Ай бұрын

Sadly they just didn't have the dev time. Data mining has shown that Nuevo Paraíso was meant to be included too.

@darnpotato Ай бұрын

I'm one of the few people that disagrees- Having somewhere where there's not a lot going on felt really relaxing, nothing but time. Compare that to the rest of NH where an event happens every few minutes, it's shocking.

@migueltoledo1884 Ай бұрын

I agree. Ambarino was perhaps the most under-utilized state in Read Dead. With hardly anything interesting out there or things to do aside from hunt and enjoy the scenery.

@DopaminedotSeek3rcolonthree Ай бұрын

@@darnpotato I can see that, but at the same time, if Armadillo was a functioning town rather than a cholera stricken hellhole and there was more to do in Tumbleweed than see a couple Sheriff meltdowns, I would have spent more time there than any other part of RDR2

@thirdhandlv4231 Ай бұрын

Think its a surprise it exists it all considering the insane amount of stuff already in the game, even more insane is the fact that it has some stuff there, just enough to make it feel lived in

That civil war soldier who still thinks the war is going on could be a reference to a Japanese soldier called hiroo onoda. He stayed in the Philippines jungle for 29 years snd he refused to believe that ww2 was over. He died in 1974 in tokyo

I am a history nerd and this is one of the most unique ways to learn about history and the origin of phrases, food, items and so much more Please never stop, I don’t care which game and honestly it doesn’t even have to be a game but keep doing this. It’s a perfect treat for history lovers like me and I have learned a bunch of things in here that I wouldn’t have otherwise

I know you’ll get a lot of “you missed” but I really thought you’d do an episode or two on the bounties in story mode. The snake oil salesman, the woman who kills her lovers etc.

Armadillo more resembles a 1870s-1880s boom town. An early 1900s town would have the look of being more settled and modern.

RDR 1 being set in 1911 makes little sense

@IMADINOSAURNOTABIRD Ай бұрын

There’s nothing to build upon. The place is in new Austin, the end of civilization and the home of lawlessness. Not to mention it’s been stricken by fever, famine, plague, and the lawman leaving. There’s no reason it would progress .

@howardmctroy3303 Ай бұрын

@@stranger299aRDR 1 is a playground of various western set pieces. New Austin is the classical western and has the traditional Southwestern-Texas setting. Nuevo Paraiso is the spaghetti western set in conflict-stricken Northern Mexico. West Elizabeth is the revisionist "End of Age" western and has this "shadow of civilization" setting.

About the “gay” frogs. It wasn’t that it was necessarily making them gay but rather just hyper sexual. An animals sexuality can not be changed and while there are most certainly gay frogs, it obviously isn’t a result of any sort of chemical.

I've always found the state of New Austin to be an interesting location story-wise. The last outlaw country. The dying breath of the wild west. It's so wild that apparently, there's no state government of its own. New Austin is tied to the government from West Elizabeth.
