Bears – Red Dead Redemption
Upon it’s release, Red Dead Redemption received high praise from both gamers and critics alike for not only it beautiful graphics, excellent story, and solid gameplay, but also for its ability to capture the melancholy nature of classic old west films. Redemption gave players a vast open world to explore either on foot or on horseback and within that world was countless species of flora and fauna for players to hunt for and skin.
Gameplay wise, these animals and plants could be used to create items to help players on their missions or could be sold for cash at towns or outposts. Some animals, like armadillos and rabbits, were harmless, others not so much. There were plenty of deadly animals to watch out for in Red Dead Redemption, but the most fearsome of all was surely the bears found in Tall Trees.
Found up north of Redemption‘s large map, Tall Tress is a dense forest area filled with rare plants and creatures rarely found in other territories. However, anyone who goes hunting there should be wary, for there are creatures living there that are far more dangerous than any bandit. You’re minding your own business, picking flowers like the badass cowboy you are, when you turn around just in time to see a massive grizzly bear come charging towards you. Before you can even raise your revolver, the bear has torn into your flesh and is now decorating the surrounding area with your corpse.
Seriously, if you go into Tall Trees without some serious firepower, you’re asking for death. Even if you’re heavily armed, a moment of distraction can be your end. These bears are sneaky, fast and spawn quickly. If you’re headed to Tall Trees, remember one thing; don’t mess with the bears!
