He does this all by himself, thinking he can get Bill to come down with words alone. And when that doesn’t work, he reaches for his gun and is promptly shot in the side. It’s an interesting scene and incredibly dramatic. Without context, it also makes John seem diplomatic and brave. But with the prequel’s context, players understand the truth: he’s just kind of dumb sometim
Rockstar has been one of the most acclaimed developers of this generation, largely for the incredible narratives it creates. While the GTA franchise is certainly Rockstar’s crown jewel, the studio’s most impressive narrative is arguably the story told throughout Red Dead Redemption _ and Red Dead Redemption 2 _ . Choosing to move back in time with RDR2 made a lot of sense given how the original game ended. Making a direct sequel would have been tricky at the least, but beyond that, Rockstar’s decision to move back in time actually changes the overall direction of the entire franchise and possibly for RDR3 as w
Although this scene is meant to feed a sense of unease going into Undead Nightmare , it also embodies everything John fought for. At the beginning of the DLC, John returns to find his family sitting by the fireplace, joking around and enjoying the domesticity they worked so hard
While attending Charles Chatenay’s gallery showing, chaos erupts as the dainty people of St. Denis realize the man has painted their loved ones all in the nude. As they slap their way in and out of the gallery, Arthur has a rambunctious and highly entertaining time, and it’s truly a pleasure for players to wa
However, in Batman: Arkham Knight, the Scarecrow manages to defeat the Dark Knight after all. He doesn’t succeed in turning Gotham into a city of fear, but he does manage to uncover Batman’s identity, forcing him and Alfred to blow up the Wayne manor, either committing suicide or hiding underground to protect their allies and loved o
Back at the village, the shaman is trying to force the villagers to sign a contract absolving a fuel company of any liability for poisoning the local water. Arthur has had enough and forces the shaman to drink the water sample, where he admits he has been poisoned. The shaman runs off, but the villagers still insist that they are cursed despite Arthur’s pleas for rea
The final part of her journey could lead her to the Panama Canal, which has been previously alluded to within the Red Dead franchise. Though it would be unclear in what stage of its lifespan the Canal would be by the time Sadie reached it, the location would be a perfect setting to end Sadie’s journey of chasing down her target. Not only would it provide players with a wholly original landscape, but it would also bring Sadie to a final impasse where she must at last pick which side of the fence on which she wishes to be. Sadie is arguably one of the franchise’s best characters , and this end would be one befitting both the Red Dead series and Sadie hers
Poor Arthur has to go through a lot. As the gang’s strongman, he’s often tasked with some of the most taxing jobs, with very little appreciation coming back his way. But this cutscene is a welcome reprieve, where players get to see him actually enjoy himself. He even laughs, openly and heartily – a rare sight, for such a troubled
A few days later in the same spot, the player can run into the brothers and Helen again. This time, their challenge of bravery has escalated to withstanding different punches. After three rounds of absorbing blows, neither brother is left standing so Helen decides to cart them a
The pace and flow of the conversations are wonderfully captivating, the wording poetic and beautiful, and the game is filled with memorable quotes like, “Maybe when your mother is finished mourning your father I’ll keep her in black. On your beha
Sadie’s admission to John that she had developed a bit of a death wish, and her penchant for violence, could be enough to keep her in her role for a time after the events of RDR2, which could allow players to experience another powerful narrative of Red Dead ‘s themes around revenge and redemption. Sadie’s character would become more and more hardened, as she is already becoming at the end of RDR2 , losing herself in work and struggling to maintain her humanity in the proc
Much like Red Dead Redemption 2 Missions Dead Online , there’s no gold bars inside this mine. However, Arthur will find the water has been poisoned and is the true source of the strange local happenings. Filling up a small bottle, he begins pursuing a person trying to run away. Shortly after, the mine tunnel will explode. Poisonous air starts to fill up the caverns, so Arthur must escape quic
The other major franchise from Elder Scrolls developer Bethesda, Fallout , has told many stories over the years, and the player’s choices in the series might have lead to some villains reaching their goals in the end. The Nuka World DLC is one of the most unique DLC packs for Fallout 4 , letting the player join one of the most organized and ruthless raider gangs in the Commonwea
