Red Dead Redemption 2 has\u00a0smashed its way to every record imaginable<\/a>\u00a0in the last seven days since its release, and we have the essential cannabis smoker\u2019s guide and activity list for Rockstar\u2019s likely Game of The Year winner.<\/p>\n

Make no mistake about it \u2014 RDR2 is essentially the Purple Punch of this year\u2019s crop of video games. It\u2019s going to win everything, and deservingly so. Of course, we admit it doesn\u2019t quite have the blue Powerade smell when you open the box. What could possibly make Red Dead Redemption 2\u2019s open-world western sandbox gameplay of a generation-defining quality better, you ask? Smoking weed. In our opinion, large amounts of world-class marijuana make an already fun time even more delightful. We\u2019ve been smoking mostly dank OG strains since we arrived in New Hanover, but we\u2019ve dipped into some other\u00a0terpene<\/a>\u00a0profiles over the course of the week to keep things fresh.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re finding yourself in combat a lot, just pretend the massive amount of tobacco you have to consume to keep your Dead Eye Meter up is all whacky weed. And in that sense,\u00a0Rockstar<\/a>\u00a0should consider allowing you to roll up spliffs on the campfire crafting menu. You can put oregano on the mature venison meat, but you can\u2019t roll up the tobacco Arthur Morgan has in his pocket! This is tragic, and we hope it\u2019s remedied in the first DLC.<\/p>\n

But there is plenty of stuff to enjoy while you\u2019re puffing tough like Arthur!<\/p>\n

Cinematic Mode: Time to Roll<\/h4>\n

Cinematic Mode is where the real action goes down. Since it takes a while to unlock fast travel, and even then it\u2019s only one wat, Cinematic Mode comes with\u00a0a god-sent autopilot<\/a>.\u00a0 You can set the speed of your horse for the journey, but those trips still take a bit of time, even if your horse is at full speed. This is a great time to roll up a joint or backwoods. But be careful! Those darn O\u2019Driscolls could pop out of anywhere at any moment and it\u2019s fast sometimes. Keep an ear out for trouble, hit pause real quick and then fight it out with your assailants when you\u2019re done rolling up!<\/p>\n

Fishing & Hunting: Time for a Sativa<\/h4>\n

Rockstar did a great job of making certain things tedious, and fishing is a great example. You\u2019re going to be spending some time playing around with all the combinations of bait and lures, as well as different kinds of bodies of water like lakes and rivers. Plus,\u00a0Legendary Fish can be a bit trickier<\/a>\u00a0than their normal version \u2014 you could very well need to puff for the headaches. But the sense of accomplishment after is fun! Early on when you need to start farming animal skins for all the various upgrades to camp and Arthur\u2019s gear, you\u2019re going to want a good sativa. You\u2019re going to go through a lot of rabbits looking for those perfect pelts!<\/p>\n

Picking Your Horse: Save Your Best Weed Names<\/h4>\n

When picking a name for your horse, don\u2019t burn your favorite weed-related name early unless you\u2019re planning to use numerals for the long run. We recommend waiting until you find a horse with a speed potential of at least 8 before committing to calling them Blunty or Smokey McPot. If you\u2019re smart, it will be a\u00a0White Arabian you can find as early as Chapter 2<\/a>. But who are we kidding? Smokey McPot XIV has a nice ring to it, no matter what the type of horse. You can make a wook horse too! All breeds have the option to have their mane and tail groomed into dreadlocks!<\/p>\n

Savoring The Comedy: Increase the THC<\/h4>\n

Weed makes comedy better. We don\u2019t know the science behind it, but more than a handful of \u201cHalf Baked<\/a>\u201d screenings later, it\u2019s a statement we can say with confidence. And while RDR2 will be loved for its action and its progressive new take on a game we all loved, the writing is simply top notch. As with all funny things, the punchlines hit a bit harder with a little THC in you!<\/p>\n
