While Dutch may not have a Chosen One-type prophecy driving his narrative, it would be hard to convince him of it. Dutch believes unequivocally that he is destined to make a utopia for him and his own that fits his fantasy of a free frontier.

While the GTA franchise is certainly Rockstar's crown jewel, the studio's most impressive narrative is arguably the story told throughout Red Dead Redemption _ and Red Dead Redemption 2 Reviews Dead Redemption 2 _ . Choosing to move back in time with RDR2 made a lot of sense given how the original game ended.
