As the name implies, you’ll be able to take on a number of vocations in order to make ends meet. Such examples include being a mail man, chauffeur, or ranch hand. If you don’t feel ready to give the tough life up just yet, you can take on wagon protection. This is actually an updated version of a previous mod, originally made by user Bolmin. Additionally, this recent upload claims to be a complete makeover, which includes “new mechanics and new jobs.”

It’s not always about the rootin’ ‘n’ tootin’

With such stunning beauty and character development, the second installment in Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption series is often held aloft as an example of great game design. It’s worth diving into this Wild West adventure again, for the vistas alone if nothing else.

Rockstar is no longer supporting it, but at least the developer can dedicate more time to GTA 6, whenever that’s coming. We can’t tell if Red Dead Redemption 2 will recieve a followup at this stage. But at the very least, PC users have a metric ton of mods to keep the game going.
