Red Dead Redemption: the Regulators

"Try to keep an eyeball on my blade"

This is not a review; a recap of sorts, a definite celebration of the video game and a fan request for a red dead 2 with upgrades. The game opens up with John Marston in the clutches of corrupt govt. agents that he never escapes. How cool would it have been if you could have been able to go into character creation mode and build your own Outlaw, or choose one of the characters from the outfitter that can only be played in multiplayer.



What if you could choose Dr.Lane Davies and start the mission from Tumbleweed or Fernando Naranjo from Chuparosa? You know what it would be.....FIRE! One of the unplayable characters that could have easily been a main character choice is Americus Roe.


Imagine starting in Armadillo as bounty hunter running with a group of Cowboys for your game training. Marston had MacFarlanes Ranch, Roe could have the Regulators.


These guys could become playable after Roe's training. The Regulators were my idea after looking at the other groups of characters in the outfitter. They were modeled after a Black cowboy outfit from Texas, my favorite cowboy movies and Skyrim. Skyrim is another video game that allows you the option to choose how you start the game. Ultimately you would go down the same path to redemption, just from a different point of view.

  1. It would be really cool if you you could create your own character, because as a female I didn't want to play as John Marston all the time. I think women outlaws can be really cool, aggressive, fierce and violent because back in the the day mostly the bitter women who had been wronged in some way became the outlaws or antiheroines, whatever you want to call them

  2. Well....go ahead Bell Starr. Women were a major part of the wild west and I must admit, it would have been super cool to choose or create a female fury in Red Dead Redemption.

    1. Mr.Stone, I think were on the same page. Catcher Freeman might have been my first creation, the granddad version.

    2. Mustafa welcome to the jungle. These are just Red Dead Redemption characters in different outfits, Dutch is the Rancher, Sheeyah has on Dutch's boots that sort of thing.

      Red Dead Redemption is in the hierarchy of video games and is the pinnacle of story telling character building entertainment. I can't wait for Red Dead 3.
