"A scheming potion peddler, a chronic drunk, and a Wild West take on Gollum may not exactly be the A-Team, but they're able to storm Fort Mercer"Īmong these strange allies is Nigel West Dickens: a crooked snake oil salesman who loves to peddle ‘miracle’ cures to anyone gullible enough to part with their dollars. As he helps Marshal Johnson and his deputies wipe out criminals, John’s pistol-twirling pursuits lead him to cross paths will all manner of colourful characters. Once he’s properly back on his feet, John travels across New Austin to the nearby town of Armadillo, where he quickly befriends the local sheriff. In return, Marston helps her patrol the ranch, which involves shooting coyotes and crop-stealing bunnies. Fierce, principled, and progressive, this ranch owner tends to John’s injuries and gives him a place to stay on her farm while he’s healing up. Luckily for our boy and his bullet-ridden colon, he’s promptly picked up on the side of the road by one Bonnie McFarlane. After tracking Williamson down to his temporary home at the heavily armed Fort Mercer, our cowboy chum is promptly shot in the stomach.

John’s outlaw-assaulting quest doesn’t exactly enjoy the smoothest of starts. And as Red Dead Redemption 2 will no doubt show us, they’re also responsible for the funky scar plastered across Marston’s grizzled mug. After all, they left him for dead during a failed bank robbery in 1906. Though John has no love for the government, the outlaw has little affection for his old gang members, either. Though Dutch and Bill’s screen time in Red Dead Redemption is low, the upcoming prequel will see you living day in and day out with the pair as you step into the spurs of Arthur Morgan, Dutch’s loyal second-in-command. Finally, there’s Dutch van der Linde John’s former boss, and a charming sociopath who ran his gang like a Wild West Robin Hood. Next, there’s Javier Escuella, a scheming low-life who hightails it to Mexico upon hearing the government are after him. The gunslinger’s main goal is simple: he must either capture or slaughter three prominent members of his old gang.įirst up on the kill list is Bill Williamson, a beardy, not terribly bright scoundrel.
