Red Dead Redemption 2: Discussion & Speculation (Part 1)

[J.Dillinger Blackheart]

Im really digging the different coat colors or variation of the horses so far. I just hope thats all online is about, but ill wait and see what they do.

 

[PapaFuerte]

I can't wait for this game. Been watching a playthrough of GTA 5 (ps3 version) when it originally came out on September 17 2013. It brought back memories of all the amazing discoveries and features in the game, reminds me of the masterpiece it is. Makes me that much more excited thinking about how I will feel when I get to put that game disc of Red Dead Redemption 2 into my ps4 this spring and get those same feelings.

 

Another thing from watching that playthrough was not wanting to know much about the game actually. Sounds crazy in these times on the forum I know, but winter break is about to be over and I'll be back in the University life so news will not be a priority, so it will just come as a pleasant surprise when something comes down the line. Compared to the day in day it looking at this forum, guys going nuts. Lol. Man, this game is going to be amazing, from all aspects but especially story.

 

*Note: the playthrough is from YT channel farfromsubtle for those interested.

How many of you here have seen a horse up close? Growing up in Rio Grande do Sul, I have.

 

In the southern region of South America, more precisely in an area that encompasses Argentina, Uruguay and southern Brazil, there is the gaúcho culture. A gaúcho is a skilled horseman, reputed to be brave and unruly. Gaúchos became greatly admired and renowned in legends, folklore and literature and became an important part of our regional cultural tradition.

 

The gaúcho in some respects resembled members of other nineteenth century rural, horse-based cultures such as the North American cowboy. In Portuguese the word gaúcho means "An inhabitant of the plains of Rio Grande do Sul or the pampas of Argentina descended from European man and [Amer]Indian woman who devotes himself to lassoing and raising cattle and horses"; and in Brazil gaúcho has also acquired a metonymic signification, meaning anyone, even an urban dweller, who is a citizen of the State of Rio Grande do Sul. In its purest sense, gaúcho referred to the nomadic, often outlaw inhabitants of the great plains of Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil. In current usage, gaucho usually designates the rural working class in general."

 

Below, a gaúcho from Argentina, photographed in 1868.

There are 18 days until February 7th. The chance of news is currently 5.5% on any given day. That number jumps to 7.7% when you do not include weekends. This coming week, we have a 38% chance of news. The following week has a 68% chance of news.

February 7th?

Take Two Investors call.

 

This is the call where the investors ask, "You got any monneh fo' me, boya?" and TTWO replies, "Always, dude. Recurrent consumer spending is higher than ever, and it costs us almost nothing to generate it. Buy more stock."

I never noticed it and it's such a weird thing to explain, by my god does ol' Arthur have some realistic looking teeth best I've seen in a game. Really takes it that extra step in making him look all the more real and human.

Maybe you never noticed it because it's not actually in the trailer Well sh*t, if I don't feel about as dumb as a kindergarter eating kitty litter.

 

I coulda sworn I saw that smile in the trailer. Even went back to check.

My bad lmao. Must've been my mind playing tricks.

I saw it right away because that smile is creepy as sh*:;;4

[SuperKitsune]

 

 

 

I do think its realistic to expect news on a Monday, but if actually happens I hope none of you say you were right about the feeling you had this week. Youve been having that feeling since late November

Not me, cowboy, not me

same. We both have never made a prediction and next week is our first. Will happily brag if we were right our first "feeling"

That's how sh*t goes here at the forum, man

This drought since September trailer is really exhausting...

I really hope for some news this month or early in February with confirmed release date.

Let it release in May for 8th anniversary of Red Dead Redemption please, it would be perfect

All of us are moslty hanging on. Seems like we haven't tripped out just yet. As long as we keep the laughs and interesting speculations about RDR2 we can make it next through early February

[Emmi]

Who could believe a drought > worse than V's < awaits us ... back in October 2016.

 

October 2016: Teaser ... 7 months pass

May 2017: Delay ... 4 months pass

September 2017: Teaser 2 ... 4 months pass

???: Delay 2

 

[Vespid]

This must have been discussed earlier but this comes to my mind everytime I think about RDR2!!

 

Who the f*ck is Arthur Morgan. How was he not ever spoken about in RDR1??

1.Was he ridding alone and maybe he helped out Dutch, but that goes against Rockstar's statement about the game

"Story of Arthur morgan and the dutch vander linde gang as they ride and steal their way accross the heartland".

2. He was dead and that line from trailer 1 "You run and Dont look back" was his last words to his lover just like John Marston has told to his family.

Its super confusing that if he played such a significant role in the Dutch's gang how was he never spoken about??

[thedarkman123]

I think arthur morgan changes his name to john martson and no more conspiracies...,,

I can see this happening. After Arthur is shot he undergoes voice and facial surgery to make him look younger, John Matston is born

I guess that's what's making it all the more intriguing while also being a pretty good indicator it doesn't take place directly before the events of rdr2. Edited January 21, 2018 by SuperKitsune

So we're now in the last week when Redemption 2 can have a release date and the marketing campaign can start with a new trailer and GI/IGN/Gamespot previews next month, or the silence continues until an inevitable Fall release announcement happens closer to T2's investor meeting.

Yes, i agree. Within 11 days we should have something regarding the release. I believe in a small preview of the cover art, the week after the whole thing including some more story details, the release date and some screenshots. Late February, Early March the third and final trailer and April and May small gameplay clips. May 29th release. Edited January 21, 2018 by SuperKitsune

[MVP]

I don't see Rockstar showing a small preview or a teaser of the cover art, especially since it's been 1 year and 4 months since the game was announced.

 

I think the final cover art will be revealed with a Trailer 3 countdown, then on that trailer will be the final release date for Red Dead Redemption II.

 

I just hope we get the showcase videos showing the mechanics/physics/locations/characters like Max Payne 3 and Red Dead Redemption did.
