I Am Wearing A Cowboy Hat Right Now.
Oh, my God, what, Red Dead Redemption has a movie house where you can watch ridiculous old-style silent cartoons on a flickering projector. One of them, entitled The Dangers of Doctors and Patent Medicine, ends with the message 'MEDICAL SCIENCE cannot SAVE YOU. IT WILL KILL YOU and LEAVE YOU DEAD.' This is actually the most amazing game I have ever played.
I enjoy making Marston collect flowers. Sometimes he says, 'Might as well,' as he picks them, because, being a big tough ex-gangster, obviously he didn't set out to pick flowers. He might as well pick flowers, as he's there. But nobody's fooled, because on other flower-picking occasions he'll say, 'You little beauty.'
Marston, incidentally, persists in being ridiculously sexy. Possibly the sexiest videogame character I have ever encountered. When I first saw the game being played, I thought he was quite ugly; now I want him to hogtie me and call me Miss. That's normal, right?
I think I want John Marston to meet Patrick Jane of The Mentalist. They've both had families taken from them, albeit in different ways. I'd like to see them working together. Jane's family can't be saved, but maybe he can help this man save his.
That and, well, Patrick Jane would do hilariously badly in the world of Red Dead Redemption. For all his psychological tricks, he's absolutely terrified of physical harm and he wouldn't be remotely at ease in a setting where most of the people have guns and many of them will happily shoot you.
It troubles me that saving in Red Dead Redemption connotes sleeping for six hours, because I am addicted to saving. I save whenever I do anything remotely significant. So my Marston just sleeps all the time. Obviously I don't have to sit there and wait through the sleeping period, but it's weird when I think that I've played through ten in-game days and probably spent six of them sleeping. Marston, are you feeling all right?
Finally: whenever I've been playing Red Dead Redemption for some time, I find myself humming Pony Chorale from Homestuck as I go about my day. Someone make a fanvid; it only has to be a minute long. IT COULD INCLUDE BAD MSPAINT DRAWINGS OF MARSTON AND HIS HORSE. I wish I had the skills to do this, because it could be magnificent.
HAVE A MILLION ENTRIES ABOUT A GAME THAT ONLY![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
