10 Morality Systems In Video Games That Can Be Cheated

10. The Howdy Of The Saint - Red Dead Redemption 2

Anyone who's played Red Dead Redemption 2 can agree that its protagonist, Arthur Morgan, is a really loveable guy.

He's so loveable, in fact, that it feels almost criminal (pardon the pun) to lead him down the path of a low-honor scoundrel. He doesn't deserve to be remembered for all the bad stuff he did, but on the other hand, it's also pretty hard to resist the fun of gunning down random strangers or the extra money you can make on the side through theft and robberies.

Thankfully, the honor system in Red Dead Redemption 2 is broken enough to let you get the best of both worlds: enjoy the life of an unhinged criminal and keep Arthur's conscience squeaky clean. All you need to do is just say "howdy" to a bunch of strangers.

Because honor doesn't just relate to killing and helping people but also less obvious things like socializing, you can easily offset your sins by greeting the locals and telling them to have a nice day. You gain smaller amounts of honor by acting friendly rather than helping people, but it still takes only five hellos to recover all of the honor you lost from committing bloody murder.

You might be a monster, but at least you're a polite monster, and apparently, that's what counts.
