In Nigel's own words: " We were best mates. I mean, really best mates. He'd never leave me. Never. " The use of the word really certainly raises a brow, and he is confident in the fact that Gavin would never leave him. After all, they came all the way from England to start a new life in America . Yet, was there a reason they left England? Could it be bigotry towards gay people at the t
Marko Dragic's Stranger Missions open the door to inventions that will make quality of life changes to normal gameplay, such as the electric lantern that won't run out of oil and shines brighter than average lanterns. Additionally, the missions increase the distance from criminal activities and make Red Dead Redemption 2 feel like an episode of Bill
Red Dead Redemption 2 is filled with mysteries. UFOs, ghosts, sasquatches, time travel, and all other mystical sci-fi and horror elements will have players shaking in their cowboy boots. Yet, one of the more interesting aspects is a lost Englishman who might not even be real. When combing through the game's files, there's nothing on Gavin, just Gavin's friend, Nigel. All players can do is speculate and theorize on what Gavin's fate is, and if he was even real to begin w
_Red Dead Redemption 2 Strategy Dead Redemption 2 _ had one of the most colorful casts of characters Rockstar Games has created. The Western followed the story of a life-long outlaw, Arthur Morgan, a high-ranking member of the Van der Linde gang , a group of bandits on the run from the law after a botched steamboat robbery. Through their adventures across the American frontier, players get to know the Van der Linde crew.

While dying on a hill facing the sunrise, Arthur lays it all out for Dutch: how he was deceived, how John was the only winner in this situation, and how he truly gave Dutch all he had. And for the first time, Dutch seems to really see him and hear him, as he quietly listens with an intense gaze. This scene is cemented as a truly poetic moment in gaming, since while Arthur always deserved better, he does, in the end, get the death he wanted: with his loved ones safe, while he faces the
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
" The Artist's Way " is one of the most entertaining Stranger Missions. Arthur Morgan will encounter Charles Châtenay at a bar, who will ask to be treated to a drink. If players do not buy a drink for him, they will not be able to experience the rest of the mission. After the first encounter with Châtenay, the second part of his Stranger Mission will appear in the form of an attempted murder in Saint Denis. Only after hearing the commotion of Charles being threatened at gunpoint will the Stranger icon appear for players. Seeing as Red Dead Redemption 2's Saint Denis is naturally loud, it can be all too simple for a player to simply continue on their, especially in a low-Honor playthrough. Failing to respond to the event will prematurely end the questl

Throughout the Western tale, Arthur and his crew realize that modernization is shunning people like them, but it's the only life they k

Even though he's joined the Van der Linde gang later in Red Dead Redemption 2 , Charles proves to be an invaluable hardworking member of the group thanks to his hunting and gunslinging skills. That's mirrored by Taima's stalwartness in the fi
