Ray Fisher’s spoken about his time working on the film the most, but this weekend, it’s Ben Affleck in the spotlight for his words on the troubled film.”
Red Dead players are becoming impatient with the lack of an update for the game online.
“The last major update for Red Dead Online was released in July 2021. Since then, the game has received no major content updates.
