Red Dead Redemption 2 Players Are Having Fun Encountering KKK Meetings

Red Redemption 2 has received rave reviews since its release, with its unrivalled level of detail and stunning graphics earning the game lofty praise.

Gamers have also been enjoying some of the more novel possibilities of the game, such as drawing penises in the snow, shooting dogs and getting sloshed.

In keeping with the game's attempts at historical accuracy, which occasionally falter with the odd alien here or there, gamers have found themselves stumbling upon KKK meetings from time to time.

Fortunately, in modern life, it is highly unlikely that you will happen upon such a meeting - though a group of people dressed in KKK attire were actually accused of committing a hate crime in Northern Ireland last weekend.

However, given the opportunity to interact with such a contemptible group in the virtual wild west, it is unsurprising to hear that many gamers are using all manner of creative ways to interfere with the white supremacist group's meetings.

Naturally, many go in all guns blazing and bring the meetings to a premature close that way. Others put more time into their administering of justice, using hogties to attach klaners to their crosses in some kind of gruesome implementation of karma.

But those with self restraint have reported witnessing meetings go completely tits up without any interference whatsoever.

It seems Rockstar have had fun programming the KKKers as completely inept morons, because of course, they want the game to be as accurate as possible. On occasion, the racists kill themselves by getting crushed under the crosses they carry. Sometimes they even accidentally set each other alight, which is obviously amusing.

Rockstar Games are known for producing epic games such of unrivalled depth, such as Grand Theft Auto, however, judging from the current ratings of Red Dead Redemption 2, it seems this could be their most popular offering yet. IGN Entertainment rated the game 10/10, Common Sense Media rated it 5/5 and the game currently has a 97 percent rating on Metacritic.
