Red Dead Redemption 2: 10 Best Stranger Missions You Must Find
5. A Bright Bouncing Boy - Saint Denis
Rockstar
Marko Dragic, RDR2's Nikola Tesla-esque analogue, is one of the game's very best strangers. He can be found by the Saint Denis pond testing his new invention (a remote-controlled boat by any other name), and forces Arthur to provide a demonstration for some rich investors. Upon completing this, Marko asks that Arthur visit him in his lab sometime in the future, which is located towards the very peak near Annesburg.
However, the player can only visit Marko's lab at night, at which point it becomes clear the scientist is experimenting with lightning. Seeing Dragic's genius in action, you eventually uncover Marko's creation: A robot.
This is where things get really interesting.
If the player waits a day or two, and then returns, he'll find Dragic dead on the floor, and the robot missing. This unlocks a secret Trophy/Achievement, and if you venture up into the New Hannover mountains, you'll find something even more tragic.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
