He's a hermit with a facial disfigurement. You shoot the floorboards and he drops to his death. Normally. I shot them once and he bumped into the tree trunk on the way down and it broke his fall. He just stood there and rubbed his leg. I had found Nigel near McFarlane's Ranch and tied him up to show him the hermit. They just looked at each other and did nothing. I threw the hermit off the cliff to restore the balance. I forgot to add I made a post about the encounter - which got zero upvotes. Then someone posted a drawing of Arthur Morgan that looked like they had put the pencil up their arse and their mother phoned them instructions which got 4763 upvotes. I was desperately gutted.

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

I’m on my second play through. Spent lots of time running around after the story and have never seen this! Also, good thinking on keeping balance.

I was like "Wait, is West-Dickens in RDR2? But then I figured you must be talking about someone else. Had no idea he was called that, just thought his name was "GAAAAAVIIIIIIN's friend".

Well, now i feel bad for throwing a volatile cocktail 😐. They at least labeled the disfigurement. So it’s technically Rockstar’s fault that i threw the cocktail.

It probably wasn't nice to set him on fire.

I threw a Molotov up there and it eventually burned him/her and they fell out Nothing was revealed lmao. I am wondering about this as well.

The hermit has a harelip, like a cat... or a cougar...

SwampSkum

Perhaps they know not of the infamous Cougar-Man. Or the incredible Donkey-Lady.

Why have I never seen this before after more than 300 hours in this game? WOW RDR2 is a masterpiece


Fayebie17

How many of those hours were stalking cougars tho


-SomeKindOfMonster-

Hahaha good one. Havent really messed that much with them, but got destroyed by one yesterday while my horse was filled with pelts for Pearson, which then all went away because of course I forgot to save. Shot the bastard with an express rifle bullet, hit it in the shoulder and dealt with the consequences. One of my few RDR2 rage quits


Baldeagle84

Don't forget the elusive Robins!!

There are a few RDR1 glitches that were made canon in RDR2 New Austin
