Red Dead Redemption 2: 14 MORE Pointless Details That'll Blow Your Mind

1. A Horse's Ears Signifies Its Mood

Look, this entire list could have been taken up by the sheer amount of insane detail Rockstar put into creating the most lifelike horses to ever grace a video game. A good chunk of that eight-year dev time has to have been dedicated entirely to figuring out the intricacies of how these magnificent beasts work, attempting to reflect their real-life behaviour as much as possible.

The craziest detail, however - which again is entirely based on a real-life feature of the animals - is how you can tell their temperament just by looking at their ears. If their ears are stood upright in their natural position, the horse is at ease, but if they're down, they're pissed off, and will totally send you flying if you try to go near them.

It's something you almost certainly didn't pay attention to unless you're into horses in real life, but now you can only blame yourself the next time one gives you a kick to the chest.
