10 Times You Were An Utter Dick To NPCs

10. Incitement - Red Dead Redemption 2

We've all dealt with someone being deliberately annoying, but not being able to respond as that would be giving them exactly what they want. It's nothing directly harmful, but the kind of thing that wears on your sanity over time.

Red Dead Redemption 2 allows you to play out that role. In fact, the game literally has a button for "antagonising", so it's an expected part of the experience. Arthur Morgan has a giant script of insults at his disposal for various NPCs.

Do this enough times and you can upset them into picking a fight with you. As long as you're not the one throwing the first punch, you'll lose no honour in these little "misunderstandings".

But even better is when you don't need to fight back and let others handle the situation. If anyone is caught firing weapons in residential towns like Saint Denis, they'll attract the presence of lawmen who will gun them down to keep everyone around them safe.

So ergo, if you find an NPC you decide you don't like you can bait them into a fight, stay out of the way when they get too mad and then watch the law do your dirty work for you.

The game might not tell you you've lost honour, but if you had a good conscience, you might feel it.
