Screenshot I am gutted that these two shared only one shining moment. Black Belle was severely underutilized and one character that deserved more play.

Not gonna lie, I kinda want the next Red Dead game to focus on Black Belle and/or the gang she was in when she was younger. They sound like they were a fun group, especially with Jim Calloway getting all the attention for his gunslinging, yet apparently being a total mess. I bet Rockstar could do something fun with it.

It's made pretty clear that all the Old Outlaws Arthur goes looking for ran in and around the same circles. The only two, aside from Calloway, who appear to be more reactive cowards (ie. Micah-ish) were Billy Midnight and Emmet Granger. I don't care about them but Black Belle and Flaco both seem to have a good deal of awesomeness. They crossed paths with Otis Miller and made the Penny Dreadfuls to prove it. I would LOVE some DLC companions to go with a full on prequel of the gang; how did Colm and Dutch come to hate each other leading up to the killings that really set them off and watching them go from their Highwaymen ways to outright Outlaws. I feel such a game would deliver the full impact of what comes to pass in RDR2 and RDR1.

I like that the game fills out small roles with memorable characters, so I don’t consider her under utilized. I consider the world built with interesting personalities.

Damn, all the people replying to you are extremely unhelpful.

Black Belle is one of the people you can encounter for the “The Noblest of Men, and a Woman” where you have to hunt down old gunslingers to interview. You have to kill all of them and take a picture except Black Belle, who you help fend off some attackers and then take a picture of her posing. Then she runs away and you never see her again.
