Now, before anyone complains, I will admit that the Varmint Rifle is great for dealing with, well, varmints. Taking out small wildlife requires a delicate touch, and this is what said rifle provides. What it does not provide is the firepower to take down bounty hunters, gang members, or lawmen. The weapon does less than half the damage that the Springfield and Bolt-Action rifles do. About the only thing it has going for it is that it’s got a fast fire rate and a good-sized magazine. However, you’ll need that if you’re going to fire enough lead to down anyb
Slightly south you will find a viking burial ground where you can obtain a helmet and hatchet. The helmet looks cool, but it doesn’t have any special attributes and the hatchet is just a throwing axe that is slightly alte
Card games like Poker and Blackjack have obviously been a staple many times over in past open world games–including Rockstar’s own Grand Theft Auto games– and yet Red Dead ‘s approach not only felt most appropriate to its setting and Western theme, but it incorporated so many more wrinkles to the typical game of cards than we might expect. Aside from the standard rules of Poker of trying to come out with the best hand (and the highest pot) at the end of the game, players also could look for tells among the other opponents on the table and see if they could come out ahead and gain an advantage. Even better was the fact that if you or another player were caught cheating in a game, the result would end up in a bloody gunfight for playing dirty.
Red Dead Redemption excelled at bringing players into a vast, Western open-world; even eight years after its release, it’s still one of my favorite game worlds to this day. Yet, what I also adored about the game is the fact that it proved to be just as exceptional in offering players smaller details to enjoy as much the larger ones, and a big portion of that (to me) comes from its collection of Western minigames.
I’ve lost count of how many times my life has been saved by Dead Eye. The only problem being, if you get into repeated engagements that require Dead Eye, you’re going to run out of charge pretty quic
In this article, we’re going to talk about which two weapons you should have to hand, and which ones you shouldn’t bother with. The game has far more weapons than it seems at first glance, and some of them you definitely don’t want to be charging into a gang hideout with. There are a dizzying variety of shotguns, rifles, repeaters, pistols, revolvers, even melee weapons, despite it seeming like there’s only a handful at the start of the game. Not all of them are worth bothering with. For instance, that varmint rifle you get? Don’t even try to use that in combat. Instead, switch to a pump-action shotgun, a bolt-action rifle, or a pair of trusty Volcanic Pistols. Without any further ado, let’s begin the countdown: apologies if I slaughter one of your sacred c
Red Dead Redemption 2 will release for PS4 and Xbox One on October 26th, 2018. If you have yet to pick up a copy of the game, there’s still time to pre-order the game on Amazon ahead of its release this fall.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a truly immersive experience. The plethora of side quests and interesting characters make the game a compelling adventure. Rockstar Games is known to deliver with in-game mechanics that give players a deep and rich experience, and in Red Dead Redemption 2 one of the more interesting ones is the Honor System. The Honor System is a cause and effect mechanism based on the decisions you make as Arthur (you can see it as the bar below the HUD). No action is without consequence in Red Dead Redemption 2 and the Honor System perfectly captures this. So, the next time you want to channel your inner GTA monster and unleash havoc as Arthur, here are 10 things that can happen according to your ho
Let me tell you the story of a player who didn’t know about the existence of lock breakers in the early Going At this website. I’d seen doors blown open with what I believed to be dynamite early on in the game in a cut-scene, and so foolishly assumed that, surely, tossing dynamite on the back of a locked caravan was the way to open
That’s another huge open world game where discovery is just as fun as the main tasks. The reason why I was so addicted to it was, one, it’s a great world to explore. Two, there were plenty of ways to fast travel and get around thus incentivizing me to keep exploring. Red Dead Redemption II doesn’t do that. It has travel hubs, which are far off from the places you want to see. Actually getting to these areas from towns isn’t the problem. It’s getting back in one piece. Maybe I’m just too irritable. No matter, point is, thank goodness for everyone else out there. Let’s get to
No, sorry Sephiroth is not in the game, but perhaps he is the one that summoned this anomaly. If you go north of the V in Roanoke Valley, and slightly to the west, you’ll see a small square. This is a cabin. Make a trip up there to find it has been pierced by a meteor, smoking everyone inside to, well, really gross looking corpses. Bad for them, but good for you as you can sell the leftover chunk for a good bit of c
