I was riding to the town of Valentine at full gallop along a lush, country road when a stagecoach moved out of the treeline to block my path. I wondered if some NPC got lost on the way to town before it dawned on me: These boys were from the O'Driscoll gang, and this was an ambush.
Two more riders came at me from the east, making it a four-on-one fight. I scrambled for my rifle but grabbed my double-barreled shotgun instead, and wasted its two shots while my targets were too far away to make them count. I managed to pull out my revolver and fire a few shots, but I was out of the energy I needed to activate Dead Eye, Red Dead Redemption 2's slow-motion ability that lets me aim at enemies carefully. I was promptly gunned down.
