Red Dead Redemption memes primarily stem from the Rockstar Games franchise, specifically the 2018 prequel, Red Dead Redemption 2. The most pervasive memes revolve around Dutch Van Der Linde’s repetitive insistence that he has a 'plan' and the gang’s perpetual need for more 'money' and 'faith' to reach Tahiti. Other popular formats include Arthur Morgan's emotional 'I'm afraid' scene and various humorous interactions within the massive open-world environment. These memes resonate with players because they juxtapose the game's somber, tragic narrative with the absurdity of repetitive gameplay loops and iconic character quirks, making it a staple of gaming culture on platforms like Reddit and Twitter.
