Red Dead Redemption 2: The 8 Items That Are Completely Overpowered (And 14 That Are Useless)

Smell is truly vital within this game. A strong scent coming off of your character can have bad side effects if left unchecked. If your character goes hunting without masking their scent, their prey might be able to catch a whiff of them which will alert them of your presence and provide them the opportunity to esc

Hunting, both in the real world and its virtual counterpart, can be incredibly difficult if one does not know any of the tricks of the trade. Prey can so easily slip through even the most adept hunters’ fingers if they slip up, even for a single second. In order to guarantee that your prey will not escape you so easily, PlayStation players can lock onto the selected animal. Pressing the ‘square’ button will cause the animal to lift up its head, providing the player with the perfect opportunity to str

Red Dead Redemption 2 is basically the pinnacle of gaming. Okay, maybe not, but it has enjoyed immense success since its release back in October. It has received endless acclaim from professional critics and sold tens of millions of copies in just a few short days. It’s clear that people are greatly enjoying their time with the g

Why didn’t the gang just eliminate both men then and there? Why even bother having the discussion in the first place? Sure, it wouldn’t have solved their problems, but it certainly would have given them enough time to get out of do

While this weapon does have some decent accuracy and reload speed, its damage really lets you down. This weapon is mostly used for hunting down medium to large prey and can help you out in a shootout with a large group, but you will most likely have something better on you for fighting. It seems to be a waste to just have a weapon for primarily hunting animals instead of a multi-purpose weapon that can hunt and fight inst

The madness for Red Dead Redemption 2 mixed with the incredibly engrossing, unending world of the game makes for a few results – for one thing, some players might be too excited and ambitious to race ahead of other players that they miss some details. And for another, well… just take good care of the horse. That’ll catch up in a big way if you try any shortcuts th

Rockstar has implemented a sneaky feature that discourages camping of any kind. Basically, when a player is stationary for too long, the game will broadcast your location to every other player in the match. That’s one sure-fire way to get yourself kil

It’s no new trick on Rockstar’s end to tweak city names for legal purposes and otherwise take a whole lot of inspiration for their surroundings from real-life places, but it’s still uncanny and exciting to unexpectedly step into a long-ago vacation. This goes for St. Denis, a period recreation of one of the most fun cities – New Orleans. This may be more difficult to spot for players who haven’t visited the Louisiana party town, but for those who have, St. Denis has a wistful beauty. Sure, you can’t pick up any beignets but it’s definitely worth a visit for Southern enthusia

These guys are kind of ridiculous. It has a ton of stamina and health, sometimes the Arabian horse has even more health than you do, which is insane. It seems crazy to me that your freaking horse has more health than you; stamina and speed are to be expected, but health, really? Like, this horse is dubbed an Elite Superior level horse, which just proves that it is overpowered, in my honest opin

On the topic of cheat codes, players in Red Dead Redemption 2 Weapons Dead Redemption 2 may find they’ve learned more recipes in the game then they actually know in real life. By entering the cheat code “Eat of knowledge”, you’ll miraculously learn every recipe the game has to offer. Sure, you still have to gather those ingredients and cook them, but you’ll be transformed into a cowboy equivalent of Julia Childs. Truly the best of both worlds, if we’re combining cuisine and the wild plains. Also, Red Dead might exist solely to teach the people playing it domestic skills like pet ownership and cooking – just say

If you want to make sure that the public stays in your favour, make sure that you unequip all weapons before striking up a conversation with an NPC. If you don’t, you may accidentally pull one out and the people within the game do not take too kindly to finding themselves in such a risky predicament. Citizens will either react in fear or anger and these reactions will remove the ability to continue conversation with them entirely. Heed my words. Unequip your weap

And speaking of tuberculosis, how is it that Arthur didn’t infect a single person? TB is a very contagious disease that spreads when an infected person coughs or sneezes, and only a few droplets of spit are required for infection. And, in case you weren’t paying attention, Arthur is hacking all over the place by the end of the story. Yet no one became sick. The epilogue catches us up on various characters’ fates, and not a single one of them has passed from tuberculosis. It’s possible that the disease is latent in some of them, but that’s just speculation. It’s a miracle that no one became infected after Arthur coughed all over the c
