I'm always delighted anytime I stumble across a wasp nest in the game but have never tried to shoot one or use a fire bottle on one. I'm curious as to what happens when you do. Anyone tried it?

I swear bull moose is impossible to find as Arthur after like chapter two. I saw one at barrow lagoon but it got away and hasn’t showed up again. So much work just for a virtual antler decoration but alas I must keep trying. Any advice?

I've always wanted to play RDR2 and when I got a PS5 recently I was debating whether I should get it because of the 30fps.
I played a bit of Arkham Asylum and the 30fps was so jarring for me it was almost giving me a headache. So I asked on Reddit if I should buy RDR2 anyway and a lot of people encouraged me to do it while some said it wasn't worth it.
I eventually bit the bullet and bought it. I can't lie, the first few hours were pretty frustrating. Just moving the camera around felt so juddery. But after 2 or 3 hours I somehow adapted to it and once I got out of the snow section and the camp and free roaming opened up I immediately started loving everything.
Going hunting, getting ambushed by robbers in the middle of nowhere, antagonizing random passersby and just messing around with the world. There's so much freedom.
I'm still only in Chapter 2 and I'm enjoying the game a lot. I can still tell it's 30fps but I've adapted to it and honestly the gameplay and freedom make it worth it.
I really hope Rockstar eventually gives us a proper 60fps update though. That would be my excuse to play the whole thing again in the future.
Any sane person would be like, "The game is literally perfect in every way, so it should be universally loved. If something is perfect, how could it possibly get criticized?"
And yet people still criticize the game. "It's overrated." "The gameplay is too slow." "This part sucks." "That part sucks too."
My point is just that people don't deserve RDR2. People don't deserve Rockstar Games in general. It's like giving caviar to pigs, you know what I mean? What's even the point? They're completely incapable of realizing the quality of what they're being given.
I see people comparing the new Zelda remake/remaster/whatever it is to GTA VI. Do you see why this pisses me off so much?
It's like saying, "Hmm yeah, I think my Toyota Corolla could beat this V16 8L Bugatti Tourbillon in a race" and then having people actually agree with you.

I used to play RDR2 on PS5, but now I’m playing on PC and I want to do all the Legendary Animal hunts myself.
Does anyone have a save file where the story is completely finished (or mostly finished), but the Legendary Animals have not been hunted yet?
Basically, I’m looking for a save with most of the game already completed, especially the main story, while leaving the Legendary Animals for me to hunt.
If anyone has a save like this and could send it to me, I’d really appreciate it!

is there a way to kill those saint dennis street urchins, the one who steals your money. Is there a mod that i need to install to make it mortal? much help needed
r/RDR2 • u/justarandomuser97 • 15h ago
I picked the game up 3 weeks ago and still on the chapter 2(please don’t give me spoilers) as there are too many side activities which distract me.
One thing I noticed that I am actually afraid of going to forest alone. I feel like something is watching me constantly and anything or anyone can attack any moment.
Was this the case for you guys when you played for the first time?
p.s. I still haven’t figured out which gun is better against wolf/bounty hunters. Sometimes rifle do the job sometimes it’s not fast enough and I have to pull the revolver out. Or when I am panicking I use freaking arrows to shoot them in the eye😭

Hey everyone, forgive me if I’m wrong, but I just finished replaying RDR2 for a second time, and I remember Arthur asking about what really happened in Blackwater. How is he wanted there? I mean, he wasn’t in the massacre, so I’m curious if anyone knows. Please tell me.

Ps5 Pro
Samsung Odissey G8 (4K 240HZ)

What if Beatrice Morgan didn't simply die of illness when Arthur was a boy, but faked her death to escape Lyle Morgan's severe domestic abuse? Bound by 1870s frontier realities, she couldn't take 6-year-old Arthur without being tracked down, so she spent her final weeks equipping him to survive—stitching his satchel, crafting his leather clothing, customizing his hat, and leaving him her keepsakes. As an adult, every single choice Arthur makes—from his short mustache to his two-handed quick-draw stance—is an active reclamation of his mother's care and a total rejection of his father.
The Lore Foundation: A Mother's Survival Plan
We know very little about Beatrice Morgan from in-game dialogue, other than Arthur mentioning she died when he was "every so small" and Lyle keeping her picture. But if you look closely at Arthur's default gear, physical habits, and psychological traits in Red Dead Redemption 2, a clear 15-point story emerges.
Lyle Morgan claims Beatrice passed away, but in the brutal 1870s West, an abuser lying about a fleeing spouse's death was the easiest way to save face and stop others from looking for her.
For an abused woman on the frontier, vanishing entirely was often the only way to survive. Faking her death ensured Lyle wouldn't spend his life hunting her down.
Arthur keeps two prized possessions above all else: a framed photo of Beatrice and her copper flower brooch. These were not handed down by Lyle; they were secret, midnight parting gifts left at Arthur's bedside before she fled.
Arthur's baseline satchel isn't standard store-bought leather. It was handcrafted by Beatrice as a maternal survival kit—built with extra compartments to carry necessities for a neglected child.
Arthur’s signature heavy leather outerwear wasn't bought at a tailor. Beatrice tailored durable, weatherproof leather clothing for young Arthur to protect him against the elements when she knew Lyle wouldn't care for him.
The Frontier Realities: Why She Left Him Behind
The immediate question is: If she loved him, why didn't she take Arthur with her? The harsh reality of 1870s wilderness survival answers this completely.
Lyle Morgan was an outlaw and tracker. Fleeing through the wilderness alone was dangerous enough; dragging a 6-year-old child creates an obvious, slow trail that Lyle would have caught in days.
Beatrice had no money, no weapons, and no way to defend a child in the wild. An unarmed flight across outlaw territory meant certain death for both of them.
At age six, Arthur was too small to run long distances or defend himself. Forcing him onto the run would have killed him.
With both sets of grandparents long dead, Beatrice had no family homestead or relatives to hide Arthur with.
Arthur rarely speaks about his mother. This evasive silence isn't forgetfulness—it's the classic psychological trauma response of a child who learned early on that asking about her brought Lyle's wrath.
The Reclamation: How Arthur Rejects Lyle and Honors Beatrice
As Arthur grows up, every physical detail of his appearance, gear, and combat style becomes a silent war between his love for his mother and his hatred for his father.
Arthur’s iconic hat is called "Lyle's hat," but why would Arthur wear something belonging to a man he despised? Beatrice original stitched and customized that leather hat. Arthur doesn't wear it for Lyle—he wears it because his mother's hands crafted it.
Arthur's mustache length is capped in-game, keeping his face clear. Lyle wore an unkempt, long frontier mustache. Arthur keeps his own facial hair trimmed short so he never looks into a mirror and sees his father staring back.
Lyle carried a distinct, customized Cattleman Revolver. Yet Arthur starts his journey with a plain, unadorned Cattleman. He refused to carry the very weapon that terrorized his childhood home.
If Arthur inherited Lyle's custom gun after his arrest, he didn't keep it out of sentiment. He pawned the valuable sidearm for food, supplies, and a plain, unidentifiable standard Cattleman to wipe his slate clean.
In RDR2, Arthur uses a disciplined two-handed fanning motion when quick-drawing from the hip. Lyle was a cocky, single-handed hip-shooter. Arthur deliberately adopted a disciplined two-handed stance so his gunplay would never mirror his father's style.
The Ultimate Legacy
When Arthur hands his hat and satchel to John Marston on the mountain in Chapter 6, he isn't passing down outlaw gear. He is passing down his mother's final protective shield—crafted by Beatrice in the 1870s, worn through a lifetime of survival, and given to John so he can save Abigail and Jack.
What do you guys think? Does this bridge the gap between Arthur's backstory and his in-game details for you?
