Red Dead Online - 10 Essential Updates Rockstar MUST Add

6. The Trapper

Red Dead Online Outlaw Update
Rockstar

For those who bought Red Dead Redemption 2 and opted not to play the masterfully crafted story mode, you may not know what the trapper is. Providing a way for players to craft clothing from pelts, the trapper would buy parts of legendary animals that had been hunted down. You could then sport their furs and other parts as part of an outfit; giving a gristly look to your character.

Legendary animals already exist in the online mode. However, they are merely an objective to hunt as part of the online stranger missions. One of these, for example, is a cougar hunt for Bonnie McFarlane down in Hennigan's Stead.

Although new clothing options are added frequently (being one of the only things actively updated), nothing is quite on the same level as the craftable outfits. Not only would the trapper allow players to adopt a completely different style, but it would give another use to the animal parts being gathered by the keen hunters out there.

A weekly rotation of parts to gather (like with Madame Nazar) would also give incentive for players to return frequently to the game. Use Hitman's elusive target system as an example as to how this could work.
