ARed Dead Redemption 2player has discovered a terrifying detail about the game’s first-person mode, as players can see the fear on NPC’s faces whenever they are committing a crime.Red Dead Redemption 2’sattention to detailis unmatched, but this particular find even asks moral questions of the player.
Since it was first released in 2018, there has been no limit to the details players have uncovered about the game. One player even discovered anew detail aboutRed Dead Redemption 2after 1900 hoursof playtime, showing it’s not just new players who have something new to find. It’s abundantly clear that Rockstar went above and beyond during the development of the game, and the results speak for themselves. Admittedly at this point, it’s a lot of small details that gamers are finding now, with most of the big secrets noticed a while ago. In a way, that only makes it more impressive that the studio went to the effort of adding things that there was a chance no one would ever see.

Redditor Catwinky discovered the terrifying detail, pointing out that when playing in first-person, players can actually see the look of fear on an NPC’s face as they pull the trigger to end their life. Whilefirst-person mode inRed Dead Redemption 2is massively underused by the player base, it’s interesting to see how many details can potentially go under the radar by skipping it. The image itself is sad, with a police officer looking helpless as the player prepares to kill them, and it would certainly be the type of thing that might make players adjust how they act during their own gameplay.
Other players in the thread were certainly surprised by this level of detail inRed Dead Redemption 2. One user even claimed it wasn’t a fearful look, instead it was “his soul leaving his body.” Much of the discussion among the players in the thread centered around the benefits and drawbacks of an entirely first-person run, with some pointing out that horseback riding could be a serious challenge while playing in first-person. Even if it’s not for everyone, it’s definitely something that every player should give a fair chance, as many will be surprised by how well it works.
Gamers will be hoping that first-person mode will be making a return inRed Dead Redemption 3, whenever Rockstar manages to release it to the public. With it featuring in bothGTA 5andRed Dead Redemption 2, it’s an experiment that was successful, even if it was underutilized by players. If the first-person perspective makes a return in theupcomingGTA 6, then it’s fair to say it will likely return for aRed Deadsequel.
Red Dead Redemption 2is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
