John Marston: An Honorable Man in a Wild World

Eventually, fate reunited them once again on the Guarma island, Fussar's territory. We all know what happened to the dictator next and how Arthur destroyed his tower, killing him in the process, but aren't you curious about how Fussar made a well-maintained connection with Leviticus Cornwall and how he ended up calling the Guarman Governor "a great friend of Ameri

When his job is done, and he hunts down the last of his former partners in crime, it seems that John is finally given a chance at redemption he has longed for. His reunion with his family isn't as storybook as he might have ho

Players who don't want to deal with the hassle of starting their own group can just join up with any posse they want. Players will just need to hit the left button on the D-Pad to open up the Free Roam Menu. From here they will be able to select the Posse tab which shows all of the available groups that are available to join. Players can also search for a specific group to join like a real-world friend's po

His son Jack is cold and distant, and his wife Abigal is worried that John will slip back into his desperado ways. After all the work John put in, it hardly seems fair. But as John himself says to his wife, "Ain't nothing fair. You know th

Born in 1877, Abigail Roberts turned into a prostitute before joining the gang. Back in days, she grew up as an orphan, or according to Rockstar's official description, 'Scraping out a living in dive bars and brothels in the West.' Maybe that's why she felt connected to John, the most above all the rest of the memb

Outside of the brief stint at Colter, this is the first major town that feels the presence of the Van Der Linde Gang. Not only is this the location of the first major event that spurs the gang to move into hiding, but it also showcases the most jovial mission in the game Tips where players search for Lenny as a very drunk Arthur Mor

And so John is gunned down, and perhaps the most tragic outcome of all is that his son follows him down the path of the outlaw. In some ways, John's life can be seen as a waste. But to strive against what we know to be wrong, even if the outcome seems inevitable, is never a wa

Three years later, he committed his first murder and faced a hanging punishment when he was 12. Dutch stepped in to save the young boy and introduced him to the gang, consisted only of Dutch, Arthur, Ms. Grimshaw, and Ho

Throughout the game, Dutch and his men would continue to make that one final big score before entirely disappearing from the criminal world, thus winning him a nickname among the fans as 'Dutch Plan der Linde.' He always boasted about how he's had a plan to move the gang to Tahiti , the South Pacific tropical island where he could 'harvest mangoes' & 'be rebo

There are also activities that can only be done in Red Dead Online while part of a posse , like the game mode Hunt the Leader. These competitive online modes are a lot of fun and give players even more content and interesting things to check out while playing. A lot of the activities that players do as a group will give them more money and experience points than they would if done solo as well. There are basically a lot of rewards and benefits that players gain from having a posse that they would never have access to if they were playing s

We all know Dutch's ruthless and unforgiving nature, like when he once promised never to hesitate to eliminate anyone from the gang who snitched, but why did he have to go that far to kill Gloria? Yes, she was a gold-digging degenerate who pointed her knife at him when she asked for more gold, but she could easily be disar

Even if Dutch doesn't manage of fighting her off, Arthur's presence was not for nothing. He could quickly help the boss and neutralize Gloria. Although it's a filler chapter, this particular scene serves as one of the most eye-opening conversations that helped Arthur see better in l

The Guarma chapter ended with Alberto Fussar's dictatorship coming into an end with Arthur firing his cannon at his tower. So, what's life for the people of Guarma after that? After such a revolutionary fight, would they elect a new governor that actually does prosper their land and not enslave t

In **Red Dead Online ** players have complete freedom to roam the world by themselves killing other players or behaving like a grizzled lone bounty hunter. This isn't a bad way to play, and honestly, players will get a lot of fun out exploring Rockstar's massively beautiful world all by themselves.
