Morgan or Marston?
If the next Red Dead Redemption game were a prequel to both of the previous games, would you rather see Arthur Morgan or John Marston as the protagonist?

Neither.

I'd wanna play as Dutch. Find out what lead him down the dark road to becoming an outlaw. :)

I want completely new character. Some bounty hunter like Man with no name or Colonel Mortimer going for revenge.

Personally, I don't think RDR3 should happen. Both games are phenomenal as they are, and you can play them in either order without feeling left out on the story.

If I had to pick a protag. for the third game though (which in my mind would be another prequel), It would have to be either Dutch or Hosea and about how they formed the gang.

Neither. We've had both, why have them again?

Jack's story after 1

Dutch and Hosea were the guys who created The Van Der Linde Gang. Since Dutch decided to be a poo-poo in RDR1&2, I think we'll get to play as Hosea, that's if another Red Dead is added to this franchise and that Red Dead is a prequel to RDR2 just like RDR2 was to RDR

Mac Callander.
Every protagonist character dies at the end of the game. He dies at the start of RDR2. He was at the fairy Job in Blackwater. He was largely mentioned through out the first and second chapter.

Same.
There's only so much prequel material that you can cover before it feels like too much.

RDR1 leaves Jack's life very open ended, and there's a lot of potential in an early 1900s setting, though it would feel a lot more like a Mafia game than a western styled RDR.
I'm not sure how much more R* can get out of this franchise though.

Before we would even get RDR3 I'd want the RDR1 remake.

However I would love to see one of three possibilities:
- Play as Jack after the events of RDR1, just shortly after the start of WW1.
- Play as Sadie on her way to Mexico but a criminal she got jailed whilst bounty hunting escaped from jail and he wants revenge on her.
- Play as a younger Arthur Morgan, when the Van Der Linde gang was at it's prime. Seeing how each gang member was recruited instead of just hearing stories. The Ferry Heist would be the last mission of course and would lead to you escaping to the mountains.

What about young Uncle.

If it's another prequel, I'd prefer someone like Hosea.

Otherwise, a continuation after RDR1 following Jack.

None, Sadie.

Arthur Morgan: A real honest man and the engine and workforce behind the gang, he is the only person with leadership qualities. He has great empathy for others and is aware of his limits, that's what seperate men like Arthur and lesser men like Dutch.

Dutch: Is what i would call an idealist of the worst kind, he gets crazy ideas and get Arthur to follow them and make them a reality, if i had the option Dutch and Micah would have been dead before they got off the mountain.

"A man who doesn't have the heart to follow his own dreams and let others do it for him deserves the worst of fates."

John Marston: A lonewolf, he ran away from Dutch's gang and his wife in rdr 1 and did his own thing. Even though he stayed true to his wife, i never liked him as much as i did with Arthur.

Dutch is the reason though that Arthur and others is alive and they pay him back everyday by doing what he says, i just feel that debt ended in the mountains and should have stayed there.

Arthur felt like he owed him to see it through to the end, that would not have been my choice had Rockstar Games given me an opportunity to choose something else.

Let's be honest, even though they were all outlaws and murderers. Arthur deserved better than the best ending in the game, he worked his ass off to give his friends a better life only to be stabbed in the back by those he called "family".

It was a very emotional ending/s for me having played both games.

The Vanderlinde Gang story has been told. No need to pick at it. And Jack's story would end up not even being a Western in 1914. The wild west was over by then. It's the same year WW1 started. Mass factories and Tanks were now a thing.

Either a completely new character or do more with Charles and Sadie from before industry and the end of cowboys.

I would have loved to see Arthur like Lucky Luke riding into the sunset and that should have been the ending of the game promising another.

But instead we are left with J...i was majorly disappointed and pissed at Rockstar at the same time, but it's them in a nutshell.

Rockstar: Good endings, nooo why would anyone want that??

But besides their flaws they make some of the best story games out there, the weather engine in rdr 2 is reveloutionary and has set a new bar for what weather engines are capable of.

Rain, hail, snow, ice, cloudy, foggy, overclouded, storm, thunder, thunderstorm and more, when the weather change it changes in areas so you can ride or walk into a different weather. The atmosphere is deep and rich with detailed clouds and lighting, i have seen a lot of weather engines and never any as good as this.
