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
There are quite a few things that you can do in combat , or in the moments just before or after, that Red Dead Redemption 2 puts on the player to figure out. One thing to keep in mind before combat is that you can actually fire warning shots by holding down the aim button, tapping up on the d-pad, and pressing fire. This can help to defuse a situation, or to convince someone that you mean business. But it can also backfire on you, causing someone to fire some shots of the non-warning vari
Then the game just stops caring and starts throwing thousands of dollars your way at any possible moment. You’ll be utterly swimming in cash by the end of the game that it truly does not matter whether or not you spent time early on attempting to make money. The game will just take pity on you and give you everything you need to surv
My go-to sidearms in this game are one Schofield Revolver and one Volcanic Pistol. The Schofield Revolver is the perfect counterpart to the pistol for a couple of reasons. It's one of the strongest revolvers in the game, and also has an absolutely superb range for a sidearm. Even without the Volcanic Pistol, a pair of these makes an absolutely fearsome duo of weapons, with 12 bullets from these things doing enough damage to take down large groups of enemies at a t
Now that Red Dead Redemption II is out, Rockstar has more or less solidified their latest title as Game of the Year. With only Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to rival the long-awaited sequel to 2010’s hit, we can safely assume the latter will wind up the more revered multiplayer title while the former solidifies itself as one of the greatest single player experiences of our time. No game is perfect, however. For as critically revered as Red Dead Redemption II has become, it has some serious flaws. Granted, we all more or less choose to ignore them on account of the title’s high quality, but let’s shine a light on the masterpiece’s cracks for just a
Make your enemies say night, night, with Midnight's Pistol. Received as part of the stranger mission „The Noblest Of Men And A Woman,“ Billy's pistol has a dark past. However, despite its huge number of uses over the years, boy does it still work. The pistol, a variant of the semi-auto, does standard damage, to begin with, but persist with it, and you'll gain affinity. Once you've done this, its damage skyrockets. Its damage becomes one of the highest of the game's pistols, while also having an exceptionally quick reload t
A Rockstar game isn’t complete without ridiculous characters and side missions peppered throughout the map. In Red Dead Redemption 2 we get plenty of opportunities to meet the game world’s oddba
Previously owned by a lonely woodsman living in solitude in Roanoke Ridge, this weapon was cherished deeply by the previous wielder. Able to carry two rounds of ammo at a time, the weapon can fire regular buckshot, incendiary buckshot, slug, and explosive slug shotgun rou
On the flipside, being a bad guy and losing your Honor can lead to bad things in the game as well. One of the biggest headaches in Red Dead Redemption 2 is the bounties put on your head, and your Honor has a lot to do with it. Have your Honor way down in the Red Dead Redemption 2 missions zone and you might find yourself being overwhelmed by bounties. It might sound cool being a wanted outlaw, but being constantly shot gets annoying after a while. Paying off these bounties can take a heavy toll on that ole' coin pouch. Also, it can affect your ability to play some missions in-game, so just be mindful of t
If you've been looking forward to unlocking the Repeating Shotgun in hopes that it's something of an AA12, I'm sorry to disappoint. The Repeating Shotgun in Red Dead Redemption 2 is somewhat disappointing, particularly when compared to the pump-action and semi-auto. It does the same amount of damage as the pump-action, but it lacks its accuracy. Despite being a repeater, it also has a slower rate of fire than the semi-auto. Is it worth its $185 price? Absolutely not, sa
(Image: http://www.imageafter.com/image.php?image=b8architecture_exteriors019.jpg&dl=1)For starters, Red Dead Redemption II is derivative. Everything it does has been done before. Even its story is a thematic retread of the first game from start to finish, just with a different cast. Realism? Who cares about realism when it makes playing a game less fun! Online? What Online? If you’re the type who disregards any and all criticism because you like something, this list may not be for you. Or maybe it is precisely for you. Part of loving a work of art is understanding where its faults lie so to better understand its streng
