This year, Red Dead Redemption 2 will turn five years old, which is utterly bizarre to think about. It still feels so new - it’s easily one of the best-looking games out there despite being a previous-gen release, and so many people are still playing it. In fact, it recently surpassed its all-time concurrent player record on Steam. Thanks to the faithful fanbase, new secrets, glitches and strange events are still being discovered, all these years on.
Take a look at some of our favourite wins and fails from Red Dead Redemption 2 below.
As TheGamer reports, over on Reddit, one user recently posed an innocent question to the masses. “Sometimes you can find a guy drinking at his camp near the gang's camps. If you give him whiskey he'll pass out,” they wrote. “I brought him back to our camp and he's been snoring (so not dead) for two days. Does he ever wake up?”
What followed was the realisation that hardly anyone has ever managed this before: “I didn't know you could bring [people] to camp,” one wrote. “Seems like you’ve done something (bring an event NPC to camp) that nobody’s ever done before,” added another. “It didn’t let me bring kidnapped people into camp a few weeks ago, what the heck man,” another said.
On the thread, it’s currently being theorised that random encounter NPCs may be exempt from the usual restrictions that stop them from being brought into camp, which explains how this guy got there. Interestingly, another user noted that they once accidentally resurrected a dead NPC by bringing them to camp, so there’s a lot to unpack here. Clearly, not everything is working as intended.
