There have been some good responses to this topic. When we think of the great story line in RDR, and we think of as a player how we invested ourselves in the character of John Marston, it would seem a shame to have multiple protagonists. GTA V was fun to do the switch but it did interfere with the flow of the story a little. I think Rockstar will be doing multiple protagonists on this one but perhaps they will polish out some of the issues that GTA V had in terms of this.
