Red Dead Redemption 2 Full Story Explained: A Quick Diary Of The Masterpiece by vasaratti: 10:35pm On Feb 11, 2019
Vasaratti

Just finished with Red Dead Redemption 2, decided to write a diary of everything I understood from the video game.

Hope you enjoy it wink wink

*Spoilers*


Red Dead Redemption has all the elements of a proper Western: Gritty protagonists, organizing their own version of justice, a crime- ridden desert backdrop, and long- awaited showdowns with shootout that keep everyone on edge. In addition, the Houser brothers gave the game an emotional narrative full of heists and chases that gel well with the Rockstar brand.


Red Dead became one of the most revered gaming series, and the story began with Red Dead Revolver's release back in 2004. Red Dead Revolver's "Red" is Red Harlow, who is on a familiar mission to avenge the death of his family. Red became a bounty hunter after his father was double- crossed by his partner, capturing and killing all kinds of ne'er- do- wells.


He discovers the men responsible for the deaths of his parents in the well- intentioned pursuit of being paid for the removal of outlaws (and an evil circus). Red wins in the battles that followed. Of course. Although not by itself the most remarkable game, Revolver set the stage for more stories to unfold in the lawless West. The next games would tell the better- and more epic- story of an outlaw seeking redemption, his story inevitably ending in bloodshed.

Chapter 1: On The Run From The Law



The 2018 Red Dead Redemption 2 title is misleading. In fact, it is a prelude to Red Dead Redemption in 2010, telling the story of the infamous gang Van der Linde when it was still intact.


The game starts with the gang of Van der Linde licking their wounds in a snowstorm after a heist went wrong. They must move forward without their rightfully stolen money from a ferry heist in Blackwater, because the less luck outlaws and robbers like them appear to have as the West becomes more civilized. All they need is enough money to start new lives, and Dutch leader plans to raise that cash via train robbery.


This draws the ire of oil baron Leviticus Cornwall, who owned the gang robbery train. He hires the nemesis of the gang, the Pinkerton Detective Agency, to get the crew of Van der Linde, who are still doing strange (criminal) jobs in the city of Valentine following the train. The Pinkertons threaten and try to sell out Dutch to Arthur Morgan, the protagonist of the game. The Netherlands continues to assure everyone that the next job will be the last, but their time in Valentine town ends in a shootout with the men of Cornwall. They must move on, and quickly, as criminals still dogged by the law and their lives.

Chapter 2: The Grays and the Braithwaites



They flee south to the city of Rhodes, where the effects of the Civil War are still felt. The gang disguised as reformed people and managed to get even half of them deputized with the sheriff. Always opportunistic, the Netherlands sees a possible payout in the play of two rival families: the Grays and the Braithwaites on both sides. The rumor is that they hoard gold from the Civil War, which is just ripe for picking, while stealing each other's horses and burning fields, so Dutch play their rivalry.


When the machinations of the Dutch are found, however, the families turn on the gang. The Grays ' ambush claims the life of Sean MacGuire, the young and crazy Irish thief. The Braithwaites kidnapped as revenge the son of John Marston, Jack. After the gang kills most of the family in retaliation, the Braithwaite matriarch reveals she sold Jack to Lord Angelo Bronte of the crime of Saint Denis.


Fortunately, the man took good care of young Jack and without much trouble returned the boy. He mocks Dutch and even tips them about a cash- filled tram station.


However, the gang turns on Bronte after the tram station job which turned out to be a trap. They plan to hold him for ransom after they have decimated his henchmen and captured him.


Bronte insults the Dutch too often, so he does the sensible thing: He drowns the Italian and throws him at the gators, shocking everyone.

Chapter 3: Accidental cruise to Cuba



The gang still needs cash to pull out more jobs in Saint Denis, including a bank heist and the Pinkertons proved to be closer than anyone thought. The heist went sideways: Police appeared and killed Lenny, and Pinkerton Agent Milton shot and killed Hosea, everyone's most trusted lieutenant and father. Arthur, Dutch, Javier, Bill and Micah hide on a ship to escape the authorities in the ensuing confusion. When the ship sets sail, it was capsized by a massive storm, Arthur finds himself and the gang washed up on Guarma Island, where the slave prisoners and locals fight a tyrannical owner of the sugar plantation.


They end up turning the tides in favor of the rebels by accident. They also helped against soldiers in several skirmishes as they seek an escape from the island. The Dutch kills an old woman, blows up a sugar refinery and sinks a Cuban warship with a tropical paradise in the background. Leaving the island was not in any way easy, but the gang finally managed to get on a boat bound for America after bringing down the tower in which the island's dictator is.
