Red Dead Redemption 2 s Best Worst Chapters Explained
The Star Wars prequels are by no means perfect. Despite their flaws, though, the Star Wars prequels do have a solid plot at work. Literature is rife with powerful tales of heroes' tragic spirals into becoming the villain, from the once honorable Macbeth's betrayal of his king and country to Harvey Dent's path to becoming Two-Face and Walter White's journey from hardworking family man to maniacal drug lord. Every medium has them, and video games are no exception: from Bioshock 's jarring "Would You Kindly" revelation to the groundbreaking moment players realize Dormin's plans in Shadow of the Colossus . Red Dead is uniquely positioned, though, in that it can take the stories of the previous games which established the gang's tragic demise because of their erratic leader and wind back the clock to a time when he was still a hero. Before there was Vader, there was Anakin, and before there was the Van Der Linde Gang, there was Du
The ship they're stowing away in sinks during a storm, and Arthur, Dutch, and Micah Bell are stranded on an island near Cuba named Guarma. They become quickly acquainted with the island's cruel dictator, Fussar, and agree to help a rebel group in exchange for safe passage back home. The trio is momentarily involved in an all-out war but eventually helps the rebels and manages to find a boat back to Saint De
Players really get to know the members of the gang in Red Dead Redemption 2 's Chapter 3. While the first couple of chapters featured the crew unsuccessfully laying low following the Blackwater incident, their stint in Rhodes sees them get gutsier with their schemes. That results in risker missions and new faces that introduce the power players within RDR2 's massive world. The series of events that unravel in Chapter 3 loop back to the core narrative that outlaws are being left behind and foreshadow that the gang's days could be numbered after making such powerful enem
Nigel is also living a fabricated life, as he has written to Tom and told him that Gavin and himself are " rich and living in big mansions with servants ". Clearly, that isn't the case, otherwise, Nigel wouldn't be wandering the plains of America shouting his friend's name. Perhaps Nigel and Gavin did come to America together, but the untamed nature of the Old West made Gavin decent prey for gunslingers, and he is now in a wooden box somewhere in the desert, leaving Nigel to falsify his fate in an attempt to manipulate himself to believe that Gavin isn't dead. Or, perhaps life in 19th-century America and the unfamiliar heat has driven Nigel ins
especially your Mum, since your Dad passed on, but she told me she was so proud of you. Even Gavin's Ma was happy. She said her usual piece about not thinking you had it in you, but she smiled and said she knew her boy would see sense or make sense or something eventually. Berkshire fore
Similarly, in the original Star Wars trilogy, fans were introduced to one of the most iconic villains of all time and were given fragments of Vader's backstory, but viewers were still largely only presented with the knowledge that once there was a good man before he put on the helmet. By the time the original trilogy is over, viewers know that Darth Vader was once a promising young Jedi, but they don't know that actual character, only that he once existed. The prequel trilogy gave layers and depth to the man who would become Lord Vader, painting a portrait of a passionate and ambitious youth not all too unlike how Dutch's young self is referenced in RDR2 . Each had a vision of the world they wanted to make, and, like Anakin, even as Dutch's plans continued to fail , they were still plans initially made with the best of intenti
As John Marston explores the plains of America, he too can stumble upon Nigel, who can now be located in Blackwater, Tall Trees, MacFarlane's Ranch, and east of Armadillo in the Epilogue . Nigel is in notable disarray, and his outfit is the same as it was 8 years prior, but in tatters and covered in dirt and sweat. His mustache is overly grown and unkempt, and the dark rings around his eyes indicate a man who hasn't bathed or slept in his quest to find his frie
The conflicts are certainly different for Anakin and Dutch, the outcomes even more so, but the nature of their stories is still very similar. They are both characters who bring about the very things they are trying to avoid in their quest for the life they want. Blinded by selfishness and greed, they each make mistake after mistake not realizing they are creating their own downfall, from rushing into situations without proper planning to trusting people they know they shouldn't. A hero's demise and the rise of a villain are timeless tales in every form of literature, and Red Dead Redemption _ and Red Dead Redemption 2 Hunting Dead Redemption 2 _ already set in motion that narrative for Dutch. This, paired with the fact that moving forward in time with RDR3 presents massive struggles, makes continuing the prequel trajectory an ideal fit. Doing so gives fans the opportunity to see a young Dutch van der Linde in a similar way that Star Wars fans saw the boy who would one day become Darth Va
