Red Dead Redemption 2's biggest secret stuns fans: 'this game can't stop surprising me'

Even all these years later, Red Dead Redemption 2 fans are still discovering secrets and details hidden inside the expansive open world game.

Rockstar Games is a powerhouse for hiding details within its games. Games like GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2 simply have loads of secrets within them that most players won't find easily.

For Red Dead in particular, there are plenty of facts and features about the game that you wouldn't normally happen across without knowing.

One particular detail from the game has eluded players for all these years, to the point where it stunned fans who recently discovered it.

In a thread titled "What's your favorite hidden detail in RDR2?" on Reddit, the top comment posted: "Vomit changes colour depending what food you eat beforehand. Just like in real life."

Sure enough, it's true.

"If you eat tinned sweetcorn before making yourself puke with burdock, the puke will have yellow through it. If you eat tinned strawberries first it'll have red through it," the commenter continued.

"You can even make combos of colours by eating two different coloured things before puking if I recall correctly."

Naturally, this revelation has astounded fans who didn't know about this. Considering it's such a minute, specific detail, we wouldn't blame anyone for not realising.

"Bro the game can't stop surprising me more every day," wrote a comment underneath.

Honestly, we're feeling the same way.

The whole thread is full of interesting facts about Red Dead Redemption 2, so it's worth having a look through if you're interested. Here's some of my favourites.

"Arthur’s stink lines get more visible with tracker-vision if he hasn’t taken a bath for a while," wrote user Nonadventures.

"I love that the natural world just happens," wrote user 5PeeBeejay5. "First noticed when I was lining up a 3-star rabbit in my varmint scope and just before I shot him, an eagle swooped in and grabbed him."

"If you kill an NPC in the woods and hide, you can see other NPCs pass the body, make a remark of disgust, and continue on, but eventually an NPC will remark that he must get the sheriff," commenter MrBigTomato wrote.

"If you follow from a distance, you can actually see him go to the nearest sheriff and tell him about the body. The sheriff and one of his deputies will go to the body, put it on a horse, and take it back to town. They dump it behind the sheriff’s office."

All this is to say that Red Dead Redemption 2 is the game that keeps on giving, and there are likely still many different secrets that players have not yet uncovered.

Here's hoping Rockstar continues with the same attention to detail in the upcoming GTA 6.
