A Lego YouTuber has recreated the housebuilding scene from Rockstar Video games’ open-world western, Purple Lifeless Redemption II, full with the catchy tune, a curious hen, and a pesky cougar.
Launched in 2018, Purple Lifeless Redemption II is (confusingly) a prequel to the unique 2010 recreation. It instructed the story of Arthur Morgan, a personality in Dutch’s gang alongside RDR1 protag John Marston. And, spoilers for RDR2, the sport finally ends with Arthur dying and Marston leaving the gang because it falls aside attributable to distrust and a lunatic chief. Ultimately, in an prolonged epilogue, RDR 2 options you taking up the position of Marston as he builds the house seen later in RDR1, and units up his life. And it’s that lighthearted homebuilding scene that has been recreated in digital Lego bricks.
Uploaded to YouTube on April 25, this cute and spectacular Lego recreation was made by YouTuber Lego Crow and so they declare it’s their “largest venture but!” And I imagine them, as this video options virtually each second and element from the unique housebuilding scene from RDR 2.
I particularly love the element of the Lego nails being hammered into Lego pegs on the plates being put in in Marston’s plastic residence. However my favourite element is definitely one thing further included by Lego Crow as a nod to one of many funniest video game-related movies ever uploaded to the web.
At across the 1:05 mark within the Lego recreation, a black cougar creeps up and assaults John Marston. A second later he’s seen being chased once more by the identical giant cat.
This isn’t only a humorous second within the video. It’s additionally a reference to this excellent piece of artwork that includes a cougar attacking John Marston time and again whereas he tries to construct his home in Purple Lifeless Redemption II.
Watching this fan recreation has solely made me unhappy. I do know we’ll by no means get a Lego RDR 2, however I’d undoubtedly be taken with a giant open-world Western Lego recreation. One thing like RDR meets Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. However that additionally appears unlikely. Sigh.
Anyway, get pleasure from your Friday! And be careful for cougars!
