The online multiplayer component of the critically acclaimed Red Dead Redemption 2, Red Dead Online, allows players to explore the main game’s gorgeous world with their friends as they complete bounties, hunts, and various storyline missions. Developed by Rockstar Games, Red Dead Online has seen several content updates since its original release in 2018.
While Red Dead Online isn’t quite as beloved as its celebrated single-player equivalent, it has certainly found a passionate fan base of its own. The sprawling game world, incredible detail, and sophisticated physics system from the main game all carry over to Red Dead Online, and on top of that, players are treated to an excellent character creation suite exclusive to the online mode. With an extensive range of options, the games' character customization has allowed players to create Red Dead Online versions of characters like the infamous Freddy Krueger, among others.
Reddit user dennymcclane has used Red Dead Online’s impressive character creator to produce an imitation of the classic Terminator from the 1984 film of the same name. With a sculpted face that looks remarkably similar to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s chiseled jawline and with outfits to match the iconic character, dennymcclane’s impressive adaption of The Terminator certainly looks the part.

The post has been a hit with the Red Dead Redemption Reddit community, earning over one hundred upvotes as of writing. Other users are commending dennymcclane for his accurate likeness and laughing at the pictures of The Terminator standing naked in a dark field, similar to the classic movie.
A comprehensive character creation suite like Red Dead Online’s can go a long way towards letting players truly make their experience unique to them. Custom characters are an excellent way for players to express themselves as they see fit, whether that means creating something truly unique or recreating a popular existing property like a Red Dead Online rendition of Batman's The Penguin.

Of course, Red Dead Online isn’t the only game with impressive character creation. Many MMOs like Blizzard’s World of Warcraft have plenty of character creation options and Volition’s upcoming Saints Row reboot is supposed to expand the series’ already excellent character customization even further. Still, there is something about Red Dead Online’s many facial and clothing options combined with its highly impressive graphics that allow players to produce brilliant original characters and recreations like dennymcclane's The Terminator.
Red Dead Online is available on PC, PS4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
