| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | To demonstrate the gameplay of the Dead Eye system, which is a highly visual gameplay element: the gameplay switches to sepia tones and slow motion movement, and the player marks three enemies before firing upon all three in quick succession, before the footage returns to standard colour and movement speed. These visuals are critical to understanding the Dead Eye system and are generally difficult to accurately describe through text alone.The Dead Eye system is a well-known gameplay element of Red Dead Redemption 2 and its predecessors, and all games have received extensive commentary regarding the gameplay. Additionally, the video demonstrates other gameplay features such as enemies and companions, a well-known location featured in the game, as well as the in-game head-up display, providing information about key mechanics in the game such as the weapon and ammo, and mini-map. |
