I think the game developers just want to show how short sighted and dumb it is to rob a store. Just like it really is in real life as well. I mean atleast in a culture that is moving away from the “wild” part of the west.

Which is a bit disappointing, because it seems to dis-incentivize playing a game about a wild west outlaw as a wild west outlaw.
The game’s sense of justice is really screwy. I stop to help a stage coach driver and his passenger who are being robbed by rival gang members. I kill the gang members, save the day. Some random passerby witnesses the event and he turns me in for murder. What the hell? Why doesn’t the account of the other two…
Mitski!!! None of my friends will give her a chance..
Considering Netflix brought us Billy Madison Yucks It Up With Chief Wahoo (aka The Ridiculous 6), and not only didn’t try to make things right but doubled down its support of it after racist morons made it a Netflix record breaking hit, don’t know if we should ever expect them to strive to do the right thing.
Joe Mangiablahblah is fucking hilarious in it.
Pee Wee’s Big Holiday is an underrated modern classic, if you ask me.
That was such a quietly subversive special. It’s shocking how many queer touchstones they fit into a 1988 Christmas special without anybody but those in the know really noticing.
Uhmmm Jill....
I think you’re misremembering a GTAV a bit. You kill a lot of cops that are just doing their jobs as well as a lot of innocent bystanders in missions. I’d say RDR2 actually has much more shades of gray. The game does a good job of developing most of the gang members. Almost all of them are in the gang because of…
You are also granted lower prices at merchants in areas where you have a friendly reputation.
I can’t tell if it’s my imagination or not, but people seem to just be nicer to me in general when I greet lots of people and have high honor. Like shopkeepers and people at the saloon are “happy” to see me.
You CAN play as a sort of good guy Bounty Hunter type. Main missions some times force you into fighting police, but most of the time, you are given the option of being a good guy.
If you’re into something like Assassin’s Creed, then AC:Origins has a great “Guided Tour” mode that removes all combat and lets you just tool around ancient Egypt on a horse (or camel!) visiting historical locations and touring museums. Found this out with my brother’s 5yo. Can just turn him loose for a bit and not…
This is honestly how I am already playing the game and I don’t have kids
“Red Dead Redemption 2’s mini-games can provide hours of kid-friendly fun, as long as you don’t have a problem with low-stakes gambling.”
Pet every dog that you find. This became my favorite thing about the game when I realized that I could pet any dog I wanted.
Saying “Hi” to everyone actually does come with an in-game reward! I’ve found it to be the easiest way to raise your reputation.
Yah, I tried that. I’ve done it in the past with other not-so-kid friendly games, and it’s usually worked out ok.
More to the point, Aardman has the Shaun the Sheep and Timmy Time series, which are dialogue-free, designed for young children, and delightful for everyone.
