Summary
ARed Dead Redemption 2fan has noticed a staggeringly realistic alligator detail that most players will never see throughout their playthroughs. The wildlife inRed Dead Redemption 2is one of the most impressively detailed areas of the game, and this footage shows exactly why this is the case.
Red Dead Redemption 2is renowned in the gaming community for its staggering attention to detail. Some would even argue that Rockstar went too far in places, with some details so niche that very few players will actually ever experience them in-game. No element of the game is safe from this treatment - there are simply an absurd number ofsmall details that enhanceRed Dead Redemption 2’s realism. It’s a big part of the reason players keep coming back for more, over five years since its initial release. Even gamers who have played thousands of hours know there’s always something new they can find every time they boot up the game. In this,Red Dead Redemption 2is unparalleled.
Redditor VividPerformance7987 shared the alligator detail, which begins with a story. After tying up a Lemoyne Raider and leaving them for dead, the player noticed their small “X” indicator was moving around the map. Upon investigation, they discovered that a nearby alligator had actually found the body of the Lemoyne Raider, and began carrying it back to the water in its mouth. It’s just one more reason to add as to why theimmersion inRed Dead Redemption 2is next-level - it truly feels like a living, breathing world that players are but a small part of.
For one user in the thread, the clip proved to be vindication, claiming that they had previously been downvoted on Reddit for saying that this was something that could actually happen. When gamers online actually don’t believe the level of detail included in a game, only to be proven wrong, it’s a sign of just how deep it runs. This certainly isn’t the only wildlife-based discovery that players have made, though. For example, oneRed Dead Redemption 2player found a mind-blowing fishing detailthat sees fish die when accidentally kept out of water for too long.
Given that players are still finding new things aboutRed Dead Redemption 2, it’s safe to say that the game still has a lot of life left in it yet. However, that hasn’t stopped players from dreaming about a potentialRed Dead Redemption 3, sharing their thoughts and theories about the title online. Some feel thatRed Dead Redemption 3shouldn’t followRDR2’s footsteps, but when it comes to the level of detail, Rockstar should be aiming to at least match or exceed what was previously achieved. WithGrand Theft Auto 6up first, it will likely be some time before this is a thing gamers need to be concerned with.
