Rockstar messed up
After beating Red Dead 1 and 2 it seems like Rockstar messed up majorly.

From my understanding it seems that Red Dead 1 is a story that takes place AFTER Red Dead 2. Rockstar seems to have mistakenly released the RDR 1 before the actual first story line.

I'm not sure how something like this could happen in such a huge company worth trillions of dollars.

One thing is for certain though, if something like this could happen with the Red Dead Series, it makes me very worried for the quality of Grand Theft Auto 6. All the older and better employees are no longer with Rockstar Games.

So Gen Z employees have really dropped the ball here. What an embarrassment.

I know this is a complete troll thread and all but this is just so stupid. Prequels are released after the original all the time. One of the biggest examples of that is Star Wars.

Some of you guys obviously don't understand that at the time of developing RDR1 that a prequel was probably not a concept yet. That's why there's no mention of Arthur in the first game. This game originally released 14 years ago.

The brain rot is real lmao

Everybody knows it. It's time to accept the truth.
Truth is you're nothing but a troll looking for clown awards.
Hell, even your Steam achievements are fake. How'd you get almost all the RDR2 achievements at the same time?

You're nothing. That's the truth. :cta_emo7:

and you dont know apparently that SW prelogy was hated because it was a retcon on some thing like midichlorian ?
prequel is dangerous, you have to write carefuly or it change the base material and make it nonsensical
RDR2 make RDR1 nonsensical because we never eared something about arthur or hosea, rockstar messed up with the character in the prequel
the best thing they could have done is remaking RDR1 and adding mention into it, that's what georges lucas did with SW also, but they are too lazy to do that, and since dumbs people like you dont see any problem about that, because logic isnt you're priority it seems, we have 2 games that make no sens being in the same timeline
the best example of a good prequel is borderlands the pre sequel, it doesnt retcon anything, it just add dept into the story and all exclusives characters have a good reason to not being in borderlands 2

You could learn to read. That's always an option, no?

yeah, it's almost as if rdr2 is a prequel to 1 and you're about 5~ years late on realizing that

also this isn't a "mess up", it's entirely intentional

rockstar isn't worth anywhere near trillions

their publisher's total assets are estimated at around 12.2 billion, that's about 987.8 billion short of a trillion

This gets even more confusing when you think Red Dead Revolver is RDR1 technically, but everyone calls Red Dead Redemption the first one.

Not surprised that brain rot like this is coming from someone who lives in Spokane, WA. :73:
I agree with the OP's forum title rockstar did mess up but that's not surprising at this point. The rockstar games launcher is trash, they removed the ps2 era gta trilogy from steam for the definitive edition even though modders have by that point made their own iteration of a remaster for those games, they abandoned rdo and selling a port of a 14 year old game for 50 smackaroos with less content than what it originally came with due to the absence of multiplayer
