I hope you are just pretending, for the sake of humanity. In all of my life I have yet to meet a human just about as stupid as you are.

That's like saying Borderlands: The Presequel can't be a presequel to Borderlands 2 because Borderlans 1 is the presequel.

I hope you, your mother and your father, get cancer, so you can slowly wither away in some fucking bed and I can point and laugh at you while you fucking die. You disgusting fucking inbred impurity.

If you were to kill yourself right now, I would take it as a personal fucking insult, because I want to make sure It's either some horrible disease or me myself that ends your miserable fucking idiot life.

I'd like it to be before the turn of the century, when lawmen and outlaws were more prevalent. Maybe around the time when Landon Ricketts was at his prime, or it could be centered around the gold rush even.

I hope the choice between good and bad is a main point of the next game, maybe even with two completely different stories. One good guy gunslinger and the other a badass outlaw. I know they had the Honor system or whatever in Red Dead Redemption but it never really felt right to be an evil bastard with John.
>>
>>342633004
Actually a strayan western film influenced the writing team so that's not completely impossible.

I bet Rockstar could do it, too. The founders are all cockney fucks that might understand the bants needed for a strayan setting better than any yank.

You said nothing close to that. All you did was talk about how a stranger on the internet should suffer and die. You never said anything even mentioning the idea that a direct prequel to Red Dead Redemption could be made.

Rockstar Technically already made a sequel to Red Dead Redemption anyways, which is LA Noire since there are references to John Marston in it. Much like how GTA:SA is technically a prequel to GTA 3 with the canonical first appearance of Claude and Catalina.

Are you saying Metal Gear Solid 1 isn't the prequel to Metal Gear Solid 2?

Shouldn't take place after RDR, it was already set during a time when the west was dying.

Just make it a new story, call it Red Dead Revenge or something.

Follow the Mafia 3 trend and make the protagonist a black character.

That sounds absolutely retarded.

They already fooled around with multiple protagonists in GTA. Wouldn't mind a gunslinger and a sheriff being the main characters.

But since they'll inevitably have to shoe horn in diversity, might as well thrown in a Native protagonist too.

Considering Red Dead Redemption is all about the death of the American cowboy it's incredibly unlikely.

Not him but a prequel can't have come out before the original. A prequel is something that expands on the back story of a previous release, Red Dead Revolver can't be a prequel for a few reasons. The first is for the same reason that Redemption isnt a sequel, they aren't exactly related, more spiritual successor. The other reason is because it came out before redemption
>>
>>342635113

It should take place a couple of decades before Redemption. It could have a young Landon Ricketts in his prime make a cameo, or potentially have a small part in the story. It could also have a young Dutch and Marston cameo.

Exactly. A prequel is made after the fact. If it's made before it's just the previous entry. The definition of a prequel is a sequel that comes before the last entry. It builds upon the back story of past entries
>>
>>342632191
There is zero indication that Revolver takes place in the same universe as Redemption.

No shared characters, locations, concepts, etc. The only thing the games really have in common is that they're both Westerns and both feature the use of Dead Eye as a game mechanic.

There are stories about Red I believe in those camp fires, but if anything, Red is a "legend of the west" folk tale people tell.

Let us look at the definition of prequel

Prequel

noun:
"a story or movie containing events that precede those of an existing work."

Going by this definition we look at the game Red Dead Redemption. This will be our existing work.

You must also take note that the definition of the word prequel is not applied to only the original work. A prequel can be anything that contains events that precede those of an existing work.

Red Dead Revolver does in fact contain events that Precede those of an existing work (Red Dead Redemption). So by definition of the word "prequel", Red Dead Revolver is a prequel to the game Red Dead Redemption.
>>
>>342636570

>implying that isn't homage
They're fanservice skins that you're looking too deeply into. If anything>>342636153 has got it. Think of Red as a fictional character within the world of Redemption.
>>
>>342636248
Because back then the devs are the ones who secretly wanted to make a western game where you were a Native but had to come up with a reason to be white so they could still sell the game.

Times sure have changed.

All these people not understanding Redemption takes place during the death of the wild west...

Again, "obvious shit for brownie points." The influx of quota checklist diversity is evident.

I think it's more about making your own mafia to take down the mafia your character doesn't like.
