The moment Red Dead fans have been waiting for, John’s first appearance in the sequel. After the botched Blackwater heist, the Van Der Linde gang has been chased all the way up into the snowy mountains of the Grizzlies. During the getaway, John is separated from the group, and Abigail begs Arthur to go looking for

We can't forget Abigail Roberts for being the voice of reason and an integral character in Red Dead Redemption 2 's story. John impregnated Abigail with their baby boy when she was eighteen. It was Uncle who introduced her to the Van der Linde g

While Sadie is attempting to recruit John full time into her bounty hunter work and possible transportation business, she suggests the work is so easy even Jack could do it. To which Abigail gets very angry and states not to fil his head with bad id

The success of the widely acclaimed Red Dead Redemption 2 is owed to its dynamic characters who draw emotion so intense that it can seem palpable. It's been almost a year since its release, but the hype for the game remains str

John had two very good opportunities to finish and kill the man who changed the course of his life. Dutch was a father to John, taught him almost everything he knows. Yet in the hardest of times Dutch starts to believe John is a rat, and at a later time even insults John’s family. This begs the question, why didn’t John just finish the job before it started. John, Sadie, and Charles had Dutch outnumbered and outgunned after the death of Micah, and they let him walk. In John’s next encounter with Dutch instead of killing him, leaves him to commit suicide. Was there still a feeling of love and appreciation there or why exactly did John give him the cha

The next GTA doesn't need to get as dour as Arthur Morgan's tale, but a black comedy can still have award-worthy dialogue and scenarios. One area that can still be improved upon is the heavy-handedness with which its themes are conveyed. Players are smart enough to understand subtext without having it banged over their he

After being shot off the train during the final robbery, John returns just as Arthur has pulled his gun on Micah and his two hired guns. It’s been revealed Micah is the rat from Agent Milton himself, and Arthur is ready to settle it all as John shows up and reveals that Dutch left him behind during the train he

It wasn't long before we found out how John got his signature scars. After fleeing north following the Blackwater heist, John and Micah go out to scout for supplies and shelter. However, John gets lost like a doofus and is attacked by wolves. The wolves take out John's horse, scratch his face, and leave him to perish. Luckily, Abigail's Spidey sense starts tingling, and she sends Arthur and Javier to rescue him. Of course, Arthur and Abigail weren't too happy about the whole ord

There is no running; the past catches up with everyone eventually. Red Dead Redemption's John Marston had put his gang life behind him, gone legit, and turned into a family man. Yet his past came knocking on the door. John ultimately died an untimely death at the hands of a double-crossing lawman due to his old crimes and affiliati

Leaving one’s entire life behind can be quite a crazy experience. When John left the gang and his old life behind for a year before coming back, what exactly did he do? Managing to eat and survive takes a multitude of skills, he was either robbing on his own or maybe John learned a trade to make some legal money. Maybe it was easier going it alone, and he just missed his family. What took place during this time, and the reason he came back still isn’t clearly sta

To a certain extent, Rockstar could use some of the mechanics they've come up with in the past, such as the ones that were showcased in LA Noire, to set up a game that sees us go up against the exact sort of people we played as in the first two games in the franch

Grand Theft Auto V's Los Santos is huge, but the player can't do a whole lot in it besides sparking chaos. RDR2 adds a ton of depth to the Open world games secrets itself, letting players inside most houses, and allowing Arthur Morgan to rummage through cabinets. It's understandable to not have access to every building within GTA's urban sprawls, but they should have as many as possi

Any of the players out there that spent a lot of time trying to find every piece of information they could around the camp will know that Micah has a brother, one that he attempted to get in touch with by let

During the starting point of Red Dead Redemption 2 , Arthur states that John recently left the gang for about a year. This is repeatedly brought up especially when talking about the rift between John and Arthur, the question is why. What is it that drove him to that point. John has apparently left the gang before, but never for long, until then. There is more to this story than meets the eye, that will hopefully be explained in the next Red Dead installm
