Everyone is accounted for. Everyone save for Karen. The most Karen gets near the finale is a mention in Arthur’s notebook that she turned to drink.

How are all of you guys and girls finding Red Dead Redemption 2 ? Are you tearing through the story or taking it slow? I think most people are taking the latter option. I know that I am. I've still not beaten the thing, despite playing it for about a month now. In fact, I'm just about halfway through the game, and that's at a push.

He plans a bank heist that doesn’t go at all as planned, resulting in Marston being captured, as well as the deaths of two of the more high-profile characters of the gang, including Dutch’s best friend. In an attempt to escape the law (and everyone else who wants them dead) the gang hops a ride on a tanker ship headed to C
