The Nicest Badass Video Game Characters

It shouldn't come as a surprise that the oldest member of the Van Der Linde gang also happened to be the resident bookworm. Hosea loved reading and had an appreciation and love for crime novels above all e


Speaking of putting money in, how about when Arthur puts so much in and gets no appreciation? You could have recently put a couple thousand into the camp. Then once you decide to skip a day and enjoy the rest for yourself, you’ll criticized by Susan Grimshaw because she hasn’t seen you put money in for a while. To make matters worse, I’m pretty sure Arthur is donating the most out of anybody. If anything, there should have been a mechanic where we could see who hasn’t put money, then we can call them out oursel


This can be an issue in many games where you’re looking for something, but it only spawns at the most inconvenient times. When you need specific pelts and you take time out of Arthur’s day to go out hunting, you’re going to have a hard time waiting for them to spawn. It isn’t until you’re in the middle of an intense chase sequence that you see that animal on the side of the road. Now you’re out of luck since there’s no way the mission is going to let you skin an animal and bring it back to c


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


When Hosea speaks about his father he explains how the man lived a life of debauchery and sin and surprisingly managed to make it to the age of 75 before passing. He stated that he loved his dad despite only seeing him less than a handful of times in his entire life. It seems that Hosea's way of life was paying homage to his father in many w


Funny enough his name became a meme thanks in large part to the mission where he and Arthur end up getting drunk at a saloon. Arthur calls out to Lenny and yells his name over and over again in hopes of finding his nickname-less bu


He shares a name which an ancient Jewish prophet from Israel, so there's a solid chance that Hosea grew up in a household which practiced the Jewish faith, but as he got older he converted over to Catholic


It's already been discussed how close Lenny was with his father and what their relationship meant to him, but how exactly did his father pass? Well, it turns out that Lenny's father was beaten to death by a few drunk

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 most infamous quote in Red Dead Redemption 2 is Dutch’s constant reassurance of "I have a plan." Okay Dutch, please tell us what your plan is. We ask because almost every other plan and job we’ve done has just made things worse. Instead of just accepting that maybe his plans need more thinking, he just sits there and complains that nothing is working. He’s just so shocked that killing a high-profile industrialist actually has consequences. He’s also pretty upset when he realizes that robbing a bank in a large town would somehow go wr


One of the most aggravating things about Red Dead Redemption 2 is Dutch’s persistent defense of Micah’s awful actions. Micah is definitely one of the most hated video Game tutorials characters in recent memory. He clearly only cares about himself, even going as far as ratting on the gang. Almost everyone in the gang can see through him, except for its leader. Dutch would continually side with Micah, much to our annoyance. We’re not sure what action Micah could do that Dutch would cond

However, if you got to know B.J., you'd find that he's actually a very nice person once you wash away all the gore. He's very loyal to both his country and his wife, he's vehemently against racism and fascism, he'll do anything for his friends, and he has strong family values (although he did kill his dad, but that guy sucked, so it's alright). Everyone he runs into who's not a member of the Third Reich eventually takes a strong liking to old Blazko, and while being a one-man army probably helps with that, we like to think it's also due to the fact that he's just a stand-up guy. There are only a few badasses in gaming who seem like they would willing to help you move, but B.J. definitely seems like one of the good ones.
