While human trafficking has been targeted extremely in modern times, there were times when this illegal act was rampant in early times. Arthur can be asked by a monk called Brother Dorkins to sniff out and uncover a child trafficking operation that was running in a shop in Saint Denis. This leads to Arthur either intimidating the shopkeeper to get answers or using his keen eyes to spot a shifty bookcase that hides a secret do
The Pinkertons didn't make good on their promise, however, and mowed him down in cold blood. It was entirely unnecessary, as John had put that life behind him and was eager to settle down. Unfortunately, some people won't let others forget their p
Red Dead Redemption starts with John Marston nearly meeting his maker at the hands of Bill Williamson. He foolishly heads to the fort where Bill is hiding out and tries to take him head on. After recovering, he goes to Mexico to do the job properly and succe
Red Dead Redemption 2 's original score works equally as a thematic landscape of the old west as well as it does an emotional vessel for the game's narrative. The opening track, By 1899, The Age Of Outlaws And Gunslingers Was At An End , eerily sets the tone for the story of Dutch Van der Linde and his gang, attempting to remain outside the law in a country that no longer tolerates the concept. Afterwards, we're greeted with the slow whistling introduction of Outlaws From The West , before the game's iconic western theme busts in, truly establishing the story's vibe. The song, which would play perfectly with any western film from the 60s or 70s, uses its drawn-out guitar riffs and flute to set the landscape for a world of both incredible natural beauty and harrowing danger. We're instantly introduced to the feeling of hope that anything can be accomplished, and the dread that anything can be taken away, a concept that defines Red Dead Redemption
The Music of Read Dead Redemption 2 so easily and masterfully plunges you right back into the emotional intensity of the game Walkthroughs's storyline. The attention to detail and careful construction of this score is instantly noticeable, and the manner in which it so perfectly represents the game's biggest and most complex moments is absolutely impressive. Red Dead Redemption 2 is an incredible mold of different tones, including humor, awe, entertainment, jealousy, morality, mortality, love, and hatred, and the task of unpacking all of that in a musical composition is certainly a tall one. Not only is this score a perfect western soundtrack that would go great with a horseback ride in the desert, but it also represents the complicated themes of the game's story so spectacularly, and to such a detailed degree, that I can't help but to praise Woody Jackson and the rest of the talented people who are responsible for
Despite being in a world where sticks with rocks attached at the end are the height of scientific ingenuity, Aloy takes it upon to learn more about her surroundings and how to help the various terrified villages around her. Personally, if people were as mean to us as they were to her, we'd probably say screw them when the robo-raptors attacked them. But Aloy is inquisitive and compassionate, and even if people are generally awful, she'll still go out of her way to save them. As an added bonus, she also probably has a lot of cool stories to tell about the various dino-machines she's managed to ride.
The Van Der Linde gang often refer to one another as a family and many of the male members call each other brother. In the Old Testament, there's a character named Micah who warns people that threats can come from familial relationships. If a player is well-versed in the Old Testament this would be a clear cut hint that someone in the Van Der Linde gang was going to betray their self-proclaimed family members. It turns out that sometimes the person warning you are warning you about themsel
With Micah Bell, it's hard to feel sorry for a guy who did earn a set of authentic and completely earned nicknames. Arthur Morgan came up with them and can be heard calling the Van Der Linde gang plague Micah Bell a rat, sickness, and snake. All of which are so perfectly fitt
Particularly, the character loves shouting out "sure" with his trademark twang. Fans everywhere now impersonate it at every possible moment. Heck, some probably do it without realizing. Now, people can't help but notice it when playing. At least it rarely happens during the game's more dour mome
The main character of the Half-Life series isn't much for conversation. In fact, he doesn't really talk at all, preferring to be the strong, silent type. Even though we don't know what his voice sounds like, we have a pretty good idea of the type of guy Freeman is. He's someone who apparently lives to help others, as across the Half-Life games he only seems to exist in order to solve problems that others can't.
The song that stood out the most for me personally was Revenge Is A Dish Best Eaten , which served as the musical counterpart for the game's mission of the same name. It begins with an elegant string section, calling into mind the city of Saint Denis and the lavishly devious character of Angelo Bronte. Soon after, an eerie horn emerges into the piece, serving representative to Dutch in a tension-building contrast to Angelo Bronte's strings. The two instruments, while complementing each other, build two separate forms of tension in the same way that the ego-centric, power-hungry personalities of Dutch and Bronte clash with one another. The two personalities dance around with each other until they can no longer coexist. The horns build, rapid guitar strums emerge, then we experience an unnerving high set of strings, right before everything stops all at once for a brief moment. In that brief moment, Dutch kills Bronte. Right as it passes, a heavy string section crashes in to represent Arthur Morgan's horror in realizing just how far Dutch has strayed from the man he once k
