In the online mode of Red Dead Redemption 2, Red Dead Online, so-called griefers are a problem. However, a clip now shows an incredibly satisfying way to deal with players who want to force PvP on others.
This can be seen in the video: A female player walks through the streets of the town of Valentine while peacefully eating some stew. Suddenly, another player rushes in wanting to pick a fight with her.
The rude player presses the lady and tries to lasso her. However, this attempt fails.
The female player manages to free herself from the lasso, throws her own lasso, wraps the opponent in a neat package, throws a lit bundle of dynamite at him, and then walks away.

This is how players react to the video: In the forum Reddit , cowboys and gentlemen praise the action. They commend the slightly arrogant gait of the female player. The walking style can be adjusted in the options.
Other players report that they are also out to get back at so-called “griefers” in Red Dead Online. They actively hunt players who want to force others into PvP.
What is the problem with griefers? In Red Dead Online, there are many situations where there is no way to protect oneself from PvP fights. Anyone can attack anyone.
There is indeed a system against griefers, but players consider it to be too lenient. They demand a revision of the system. Protection should not only kick in after being taken out by an enemy four times.
Therefore, many consider the current PvP system in Red Dead Online to be one of the weaknesses that Rockstar still needs to work on.
However, if one can assert oneself against griefers like the lady in the video, then they will likely think twice in the future about who they choose to pick a fight with.
Red Dead Online is still in a beta phase. Until release, many things will likely be revised:
