I think people should keep in mind that the new image may very well be general western/cowboy art that doesn't signify anything meaningful about playable characters or core features before they get too crazy with hype or disappointment.

Like the equivalent of the background to the key art used for Redemption:

It's so funny watching people react then try and predict the order and timing of future marketing content. As if R* obeys any type of pattern.

Oh, and I hope there's no revenge shit. Enough of the brooding drama, if there has to be bad blood follow for a fistful of dollars, make it develop naturally throughout the story.

What if they do a Godfather 2 on us? Half of the game is a prequel about John and his gang, half is his scummy kid in the future.

I wonder if say 4 of the group are Dutch's gang that are basically a supporting cast and the other 3, with more to come, are original characters including the main character? So you're seeing the formation of 2 gangs?

I dunno just throwing ideas out where Rockstar could introduce new characters and a new main while still being a prequel, seeing Dutch's gang and all that.

Red Dead Rosalina

Play as Rosalina and experience the tough road she took to become the princess of the galaxy.

NX exclusive.
 

I just don't get it. He was so damn good. The only thing I can think is publisher/developers are just Lazy with that particular subject and that's why there's so few voice actors actually represented. I mean Troy Baker, Nolan North and are Jennifer Hale are great but using them for every damn big title and having them do multiple roles within the game just gets old.

Don't worry, I'll vouch for them.
If they are going to go multiple player characters, please have an awesome female character...my wife would go ballistic with glee if that happened. She loved RDR to death, a rare thing.

i'm hoping for a reboot with new characters.
or a good sequel or remaster/remake on PS4/PC.
im not a fan of pre-quels or pre-sequels.

I'm really shocked at people wanting to play as John Marston still... I'm praying it's a completely different cast.

Same here. Also hoping for a new story in general that doesn't connect to Redemption in anyway. Not very keen on playing younger John Marston and crew.
 
I don't want it to be a prequel about John. His story is done and over. New protagonists, new story. This is the jump between generations, so they'll break the ties with the old.

Probably been asked before but what are the chances that one of playable characters is a woman?
Probably pretty low, right?

Looking low. Makes more sense in this historical context, but I'll still be disappointed if there isn't one.

I loved the suggested info from that highly sketchy leak about characters - 2 playable characters as per GTAV, and the third character is player-made but still present in single player - and I'm dreaming of 1 male protag, one female protag, and the third protag player made. Doubt it will happen though.
 
The shape in the background immediately made me think of a raccoon-skin cap, which some of you might know is famously associated with Davy Crockett, one of the defenders that died during the Battle of the Alamo.

Maybe they're going back in time for this one? A little more "taming the wild west" and less "The death of the old west" type of story?
