Red Dead Redemption 2has become a staple in action-adventure open-world video games. It was a smash hit when it launched and continues to be a relevant title, with players still exploring its world anddiscovering newRed Dead Redemption 2secrets. Its incredibly lively world features everything from NPCs walking and traveling across roads from one city to another to a wide variety of animals roaming the land. Its open world also boasts diverse landscapes, including rivers, lakes, mountains, and rich flora. Players can interact with most elements inRDR2in various ways, though one player has just discovered an interesting way to interact with a particular dog.
A player known as Paxess took to Reddit to share a video where they managed to pet a Bloodhound. UnlikeRed Dead Redemption 2’s legendary animals, Bloodhounds are not meant to be hunted. These not-so-friendly dogs can be found near bounty hunters and in some parts of Rhodes, and they tend to be hostile to the player. In the video, Paxess manages to pet the animal by staying close to it and waiting for a little while. According to them, players just need to be patient enough to achieve this, though being able to pet one of these dogs is rare.
Some fellowRDR2players chimed in to comment on the unique interaction. One of them explained that a particular Bloodhound can be found nearRDR2’s Emerald Ranchowner’s house and that players can interact with it just like any other dog. Some players admitted they had never seen one of these dogs, so they were advised to “wipe out a town and the bounty hunters will come for you,” given that Bloodhounds work alongside bounty hunters.
Whether it’s a deep narrative theory or some small detail about its world, the game continues to spark conversations among fans. A clear sign of its enduring appeal was recently demonstrated whenRed Dead Redemption 2broke its Steam player record yet again, with 92,508 concurrent players on February 1. As players continue to enjoy Rockstar’s tremendously popular Wild West title, more discoveries are likely to surface in the future.
