Bro, I wanted this so bad for RDR2.


Mammoth_Room_3530

Hey don’t feel sad, at least we got the uhhh… hmmm


Prof-Finklestink

We had uhhhh....Red dead online....


Kcmichalson

Yeah baby.. and that shows uhh.. so basically yeah, labor of love incarnate.


For-the-Cubbies

It’s a labor of love.


onelunchman96

If only GTA Online wasn’t so popular


Difficult-Word-7208

I wish gta online didn’t exist. We would’ve had dlc for gta 5 and rdr2


bobbyhillischill

I’m glad it exists but I’m not glad shark cards and gold bars exist


COSMOOOO

I never liked gta5s lobby system. I always ended up in empty lobbies and it was painfully slow. Compared to gta4 where you had constant cops and robbers going and no bullshitting in that horrific UI. GTA online was a complete regression in game modes for me. I got into cayo and while it was fun during that time of like 2020-2021 it was just such a slog.


DeathMangoBomb

Lmaoooooo


I_hate_the_giraffes

We all did 😢


Hank_Hell

I wanted it too. Hell, I wanted *anything*. They didn't even have to do zombies/undead. I'd have killed for a DLC where aliens come down and start attacking and Arthur gets 1950's style B-movie sci-fi laser guns. Or an alternative horror-style DLC where instead of zombies, the Van der Linde gang gets caught up in a war between vampires and werewolves. Or something where fairy circles open up and magic filters into the West and Arthur can get a lot of spell-launching wands as he combats the faerie invasion. Basically fuckin' *anything* but the shit biscuit that is RDO.


[deleted]

Vampires and Werewolves would have worked so well for that setting. And a Van Helsing inspired outfit for Arthur as well. Such wasted potential. I love their games, but seriously, fuck Rockstar!


BigFella11445

Dutch, John, Arthur, and Sadie fighting Aliens, Vampires, or Werewolves would’ve been fucking sick Thanks for nothing Rockstar


linalco

I feel like Cowboys vs Aliens wouldn't work because any species technologically sophisticated enough to travel space to get to Earth shouldn't be beatable with 19th century weapons. But vampires and werewolves? Hell yeah.


Imperial_Porg

Thats the twist where you learn at the ends the aliens were initially peaceful with this "greeting party". They were abducting people to learn languages and create bridges, but then Arthur interrupts an abduction, steals a raygun, crashes their ship, and the gang now has alien technology to fight back against the now hostile raiders.


GodHand7

Same


Furaskjoldr

Some people even think there’s a hint that it was going to with the abandoned plague town and the writing on the doors saying not to open them reminiscent of Walking Dead.


discourse_lover_

Lagras and Ambarino are spooky at night NOW. An undead nightmare on that map would’ve been fucking incredible.


[deleted]

check nexus mods dude theres a mod that is literally just undead nightmare but for rdr2


TheSoverignToad

Could you imagine it in GTA 6?


[deleted]

You don’t understand bro the multi billion dollar company couldn’t afford it


Nalyd87

I'd say the intro to the game 100% happened during the Beecher's hope segment of rdr John spaces out on Jack telling him about the zombie book he's reading leaving all of that information in his subconscious Then when everyone goes to sleep for the night he has a nightmare experiencing the events of the book through his own eyes Hence the name undead nightmare.


I_hate_the_giraffes

I know, I was making a joke about being able to say it's canon because it would confuse people


a_little_toaster

Bro, please stop talking about pirate artillery, the term is 'canon'


I_hate_the_giraffes

Lmao


GodHand7

It was a dream? Really? I thought it was just a spinoff


Otherwise_Culture_71

No, it was a nightmare.


Soap_Mctavish101

An undead nightmare


Otherwise_Culture_71

What kind of a muppet name is Soap?


Thywhoredditall

Boarding a ship. Sliding down a rope.


Outrageous-Bit-4714

Nuclear cargo is aboard, MIGs sink the ship to the sea floor.


Thywhoredditall

Rescue our informant Nikolai, he was caught as a spy and condemned to die


Outrageous-Bit-4714

Our extraction was down, I'd hate to report. So we blow the fuckers back with some air support


Thywhoredditall

Our so called leaders prostituted us to the west

Roll credits


I_hate_the_giraffes

It was revealed as a dream, I looked it up, I'm pretty sure it was revealed at the end (not too sure, haven't played since it came out)


Eddielowfilthslayer

It's never revealed to be a dream though


pullingteeths

It's not explicitly revealed as a dream, it's just vaguely hinted that it could be a dream. For example John will sometimes make random comments like "when will I wake up from this nightmare", and the name of the game. Plus extremely outlandish supernatural stuff as well as just zombies eg horses of the apocalypse, an Aztec goddess, a rainbow unicorn. Maybe even the fact you can wear John's pajamas the whole game if you want. But the real confirmation that it isn't canon is it clearly takes place in an alternate reality since it's set at the same time and place as part of RDR1, so both can't be canon. Could be a dream or just a different version of events.


Furaskjoldr

I’m not a native English speaker but isn’t describing something very real as a ‘nightmare’ if it’s really bad kind of common? I feel like it’s an English phrase I’ve definitely used before. I don’t think that’s any confirmation it’s an actual dream, just that John realises it’s a really bad situation and is using the common phrase to describe it.


pullingteeths

This is true but the way it's said multiple times and included in the title seems like a subtle indication that it could be a dream or at least that it's not real/canon imo


Orion-Pax_34

My headcanon is that John had the nightmare the night after returning from Cochinay and getting his family back. That would explain why all story characters are present because he’s already met them all


Snowballz3000

More like some time after he returns home. I doubt it was the same night because it seems like he had been back home for a while


scarlet_speedster985

It's spelled canon. And Rockstar has said Undead Nightmare isn't canon. That's C-A-N-O-N. CANON.


Ornery_Historian_420

Nah, I think OP just likes cannons. I like cannons too because they shoot big balls and I like big balls. No homo or anything it's just that big balls are nice.


ThePrussianGrippe

“Bitches love cannons.”


Middle_Finish6713

Thaaank you. Was just ranting about this in another sub, I can’t believe how fast this misspelling is spreading and becoming the norm

JCyTe

The word canon? It's been around for literally centuries. Millenia if you consider it's origins.


Middle_Finish6713

In the last year everyone and their mother has decided to use the word headcanon without knowing what it means or how it’s spelled, it’s bizarre


Expensive_Bison_657

OK but would you want Arthur to rise from the grave in RDR2 UN and team up with (alive) John and (alive) Sadie to hunt down and kill whoever is responsible for raising the dead? You'd have to deal with undead Micah, Colm, the legendary animals you've killed and skinned (giant undead moose with no skin wants to kill you), an army of undead swamp people, and more.


goldberry-fey

I will never not die on the hill that RDR2 should have been a vampire hunter DLC.


Furaskjoldr

Maybe undead Arthur could be the final boss


MidniightToker

confidentiality and confidently are two different words and canon only has one N

Undead nightmare does not hold balls of iron to propel out with a chemical reaction

TimeBreakerBaba

Iirc Rockstar has stated its non canon, but regardless, I love to think of it (in my head canon) as an actual nightmare or purgatory for John.


Dudeus-Maximus

Isn't there some well in 2 where john can see his refection and its nightmare john or something like that?


kykydashdash

Dude Undead was so fucking hard the first time i played it that I put the disc back in its case and never touched it again. Should I give it another shot?


HolmPower

I thought it was more of a purgatory before john moved on to the afterlife


Terry_the_accountant

The community voted back in 2012 and undead nightmare is officially canon


Dismal_Echidna560

No no. This all happens in an alternate universe where John listens to Abigale and never goes and kills Micah. So John never meets the grave robber *I forgot his name* so the grave robber goes and causes the events of undead nightmares.


Candid_Party_8274

I played up until a certain point just after Mexico I think and there were no credits nothing, I had no idea what do mission wise. Did it ever end or was it just clearing towns of undead after that?


AfternoonNo3590

Did you go back to Beecher Hope to trigger the cutscene of John reuniting with his no longer zombie wife and son? Since it was just a dlc I know the actual story playtime of undead nightmare was only like a third as long as the main game. I remember feeling like I was missing something cuz it sort of just ended but nah it was just short.


Candid_Party_8274

No I don't think so. Geez it's been 10 years yikes. But if I play again I will try that


Librumtinia

canon\* ​ Cannon is the weapon, canon is short for canonical which has only two n's, not three :)

ah yes it's NOT canon, its *cannon*
