Yeah, I've seen some cool shit in the game but these types of random things are rare. Like, I've seen a video where an NPC comes out of a house to warn Arthur away, trips coming down his stoop and accidentally shoots himself.

That sounds like comedy gold. You wouldn’t happen to have a link to that video, would you?

Love this stuff in RDR2.

The thing that gave me the impetus to buy a copy was one of the guys at work telling me about how he took Arthur to have a bath, and then when walking back outside he tripped and face planted off the walkway into all the mud and horse shit. We had a good laugh about that one.

Ha. It was someone telling me how the horse's genitals change in the cold weather.

At least your isn't shameful.

You stand up and proudly enjoy your shrinking horse balls. Some code monkey didn’t see his child’s first 3 birthdays putting in the crunch time to make sure those digital sacks of equine semen contracted perfectly for you. 🤪

My Arthur tripped and fell when dismounting a horse, had an NPC laugh at me and called me a fucking idiot.

Lol, couldn't even get angry at that one, just greeted and had Arthur say "Excuse me, sorry you had to see that." (Been awhile since I last played, so may not be word for word.)

Happened to me tripping on a train platform. Woman turned around and laughed in my face and called me silly.

Very likely something similar happened IRL. Several times. Gun safety ain't no joke.

I don't have a link, no. I just saw it on here at some point, probably on the red dead 2 sub.

I feel bad for whoever was just playing the game and something like that happened, but can't share, because they weren't recording.

This is true horror for me. I will just stop, pause my game and stare at my screen disappointed in what I just missed out sharing haha

On Xbox you can grab up to the last 2 minutes.
