For the uninitiated,Jack Marston is a recurring character in theRed Deadseriesand plays a major role in the originalRed Dead Redemption. After all, during the end ofRed Dead Redemption, Jack even takes part in defending the family ranch at just the age of 16 when it is being attacked by the army. Although, after Jack watches Uncle be killed, the protagonist and father, John Marston, orders Jack to get away from the ranch to survive the attack. Reluctantly, Jack does as his father asks and finds his mother Abigail to flee the raid, leaving John alone in the barn. However, this latest glitch re-writes the ending.
Usually, with Jack and Abigail Marston now far away from the barn, John Marston accepts his gruesome fate and exits the barn only to be murdered by a large firing squad. Instead, this latest glitch shared with theRed Dead Redemptioncommunity on Redditby seasonedharvester shows “a copy of Jack” staying behind in the barn right before his father departs through the double doors.
In summary, seasonedharvester ’s post quickly scored over 300 upvotes as many users discussed how Jack Marston’s appearance in this scene would change bothRed Dead Redemptionand the timeline of the series. One user suggested that Jack would spur his father onwards with motivational quotes like “Go get ‘em, Pa!” Although, many hinted at a more comical yet sinister tone to his inclusion, with one player ominously declaring that “He was always behind it all.” Nevertheless, this glitch serves as a fascinating, thought-provoking look at an alternate ending toRed Dead Redemption.
Red Dead Redemptionis available on PS3 and Xbox 360.
