Okay, I understood the message of the game, but I don't believe it. I believe that in many cases revenge can be an extremely good thing

muted jetty
#

revenge occurs a shitton in RDR 1 and RDR 2

honest drum
#

rdr1 is that you can't outrun your past

#

and it isn't revenge

#

in rdr1

#

john isn't doing it to get back at bill, dutch and javier

#

he has too

#

and in rdr2, thats literally the whole point

#

revenge causes everything bad

#

that happens to them

hidden moss
#

Ok but you are using a game as an example, you can even say that revenge was bad in the case of this game, but there are several other cases in which it was good

verbal prairie
#

revenge is never glorified

hidden moss
#

and bad for who? only if you are the protagonist, do you think that the average citizen of the old west likes bandits that torment their city? seeing them dead can be a relief

honest drum
hidden moss
#

oh

muted jetty
#

also i still want to clarify that at minimum in RDR the government is super corrupt

compact wing
#

by itself revenge sucks

hidden moss
muted jetty
#

they literally kidnap the marston family

honest drum
#

thats not corruption

hidden moss
verbal prairie
#

Dutch takes revenge on Bronte for Jack yet it's not glorified (remember, it was even for Jack). Dutchs murder of Bronte made him look evil

honest drum
#

john was a fucking bad piece of shit

muted jetty
#

since when is kidnapping not breaking the law

compact wing
#

v for vendetta is an example that shows that revenge can be "goodl

honest drum
#

and they arrested them

compact wing
#

"

verbal prairie
#

LOL

honest drum
#

not kidnapping

verbal prairie
#

v for Vendetta

#

I fuckin hate that movie

compact wing
#

im not talking about the movie

#

lol

hidden moss
#

I don't even know what movie this is

verbal prairie
#

book movie

#

same story

#

i hate it

muted jetty
#

what did jack do in 1911 that was deserving of getting arrested?

compact wing
#

bc you're dumb🤓

#

im kidding ok

#

it's just a joke

muted jetty
#

also they weren't arrested, they were explicitly abducted

verbal prairie
#

they try to glorify the lady being kidnapped and tortured, and make her fall in love with v acting as if the love was real

honest drum
#

and he was an outlaw

#

who escaped

#

12 yrs before

verbal prairie
#

no not at all, v was a maniac vigilante

hidden moss
muted jetty
#

jack was abducted too

honest drum
#

waiting 12 years doesn't fix anything

muted jetty
#

jack

#

the kid

#

gets taken

#

that's illegal

#

that's kidnapping

honest drum
muted jetty
#

that's abduction

compact wing
#

v just played the game

honest drum
#

plus they were only using them as blackmail

muted jetty
#

blackmail is illegal dude

verbal prairie
#

Jack got taken by Bronte and Dutch drowned him, are we gonna justify dutchs killing because it was 'revenge'?

hidden moss
#

can someone explain to me what happened in V vendeta?

muted jetty
#

it's extortion

honest drum
#

revenge is a fools game

verbal prairie
#

yeah that's my point lol

muted jetty
#

stop copy-pasting the same thing

verbal prairie
#

I'm with you here

#

you're blatantly ignoring it and making the same 'revenge' point

#

not how you win an arguement I'm afraid

hidden moss
muted jetty
#

@honest drum also, statute of limitations does say that certain crimes can't be tried against eachother after a specific amount of time

verbal prairie
#

lol nah 50% of the plot is V kidnapping and torturing the lady acting like it was for her good, the rest is him blowing stuff up

honest drum
#

alright i get your point, the government were pieces of shit

#

but still

muted jetty
#

it took THAT

#

christ

honest drum
#

the point of the game is that you can't outrun your past

muted jetty
#

jack literally can

hidden moss
#

I don't WANT to get involved in this government bid to be "corrupt" or not. because this is my own ideological question

muted jetty
#

he wouldn't be america's most wanted for one murder that he was loosely tied to

honest drum
#

jack also killed a fucking FBI agent in cold blood

#

he matches the description

verbal prairie
#

TFW camora tells me to stop copy pasting and then goes on to repeat the same point which I disproved: 😐

#

oh but they were bad people oh dear me!

honest drum
#

and it's not 'loosly tied too'

#

they had so many leads

muted jetty
#

two people

honest drum
#

a person that matches the description that the wife gave

#

lives on john's ranch

#

wears johns hat

#

and has a motive

#

what else do you need?

muted jetty
#

we have no idea if jack stayed on that ranch after he killed him

honest drum
#

yes and i don't believe he did

muted jetty
#

he probably would've fled, he's not dumb

honest drum
#

yes ik i agree

verbal prairie
#

if you see Arthur or jack as good people by any means you're missing the entire point of any of these games

honest drum
#

this is what i think happened

muted jetty
#

and hopping a state pretty much guarantees you won't get caught in 1914

verbal prairie
#

same people probably think Walter White was a good person and skyler was a bad one

honest drum
#

they did good

#

but they weren't good ppl

#

they killed people

verbal prairie
#

I can't believe I have to argue this point at all

honest drum
#

as well as help

verbal prairie
#

people who kill, no matter their intent are by definition bad, immoral people

muted jetty
#

my arthur only ever stole from the rich and stuck it to the man

#

morality doesn't have a definition @verbal prairie

honest drum
#

bruh

#

so u forgetting the hundreds of ppl he kills?

#

lawmen

verbal prairie
#

no your Arthur killed Pinkertons and robbed from the working class (the train robberies for example)

honest drum
#

grays

#

pinkertons

#

cornwalls men

#

he did redeem himself morally in a way, but he still wasn't a good dude

#

he saw that

#

at the end

#

and he was sorry

#

but still

verbal prairie
#

you're not seriously gonna justify the killin of the Pinkertons are you?

honest drum
#

doesn't make him a hero

muted jetty
#

@verbal prairie robbed the working class? you mean when you do those train robberies on rich folks going on vacations to cuba? those dudes definitely weren't working class in 1799

#

*1899

honest drum
#

lmao

#

what about the lawmen?

#

he kills

#

the grays

verbal prairie
#

you literally steal from people with about 10$ on hand

#

I wouldn't call those rich people

honest drum
#

plus thomas downes?

#

wrobel/lilly millet/chick matthews?

verbal prairie
#

Thomas downes is a good example

crimson bronze
#

Arthur knows at the end of the day. He's a shitbag.

verbal prairie
#

yeah

honest drum
#

in the end he sees it

#

and tries to do the best he can with the time he has left

verbal prairie
#

he does everything he can in chapter 6 to redeem himself (hence, the name) but it doesn't change his actions

honest drum
#

but he still wasn't a good guy

verbal prairie
#

redemption won't bring back the dead

honest drum
#

even in the final mission

#

he kills a shit ton of pinkertons

muted jetty
#

ah yes the pinkerton detective agency, people who never did anything wrong in the slightest

verbal prairie
#

no lol

honest drum
#

so? ik they weren't that great ppl

verbal prairie
#

you're completely misreading it

honest drum
#

but he still killed them

verbal prairie
#

the average Pinkerton worker wasn't bad

honest drum
#

yes

verbal prairie
#

the agency as a whole was bad

honest drum
#

they weren't

verbal prairie
#

but the average workers doin their job?

honest drum
#

it's like german soldiers

#

in WW2

verbal prairie
#

did they deserve to die just so Arthur can rob a train?

honest drum
#

don't forget the US army

#

just because their leaders are shitbags to the indians

#

doesn't mean all of them were

verbal prairie
#

yeah

#

even Arthur himself says it pretty sure

muted jetty
#

they literally talk about individual soldiers harming native americans IN THE GAME

honest drum
#

ye he does

verbal prairie
#

they shouldn't worry about the soldiers

honest drum
#

like at all

muted jetty
#

i DO, you don't

verbal prairie
#

so far to me you've been trying to justify murderers and thieves

honest drum
#

ah yes because im sure the 16 year old from colarado arthur loots in that tar mission gone wrong was a raping shitbag

#

like you seem to believe

#

they weren't all good ppl

#

the soldiers

#

but most were

hidden moss
#

Imagine a dlc where you play as other gang members

native dew
#

Or even more in the past

honest drum
#

like yes there were soldiers who killed innocent native americans

#

but most didn't do that

verbal prairie
#

what about the debt missions? are we gonna sit here and say Arthur was innocent just because it wasn't his idea? in the end, sure he did kick out Strauss but he still needed a lot to reach that point. what about the kid who's father he killed and robbed? I mean seriously there's absolutely no way we can justify that

crimson bronze
#

I'd say Hosea while still being a lying, robbing degenerate atleast had schemes that really didn't harm anyone. He was a flimflam man.

hidden moss
#

On my second i play through i found out why bill didnt like going with the indians

verbal prairie
#

@muted jetty I really wanna see you justify the debting of the man and his son

#

even that action alone makes him a bad person if we ignore every other thing he's done

honest drum
#

on the boat

#

about to raid bronte

muted jetty
#

I don't like collecting depts lol, do you think i think of these people as all good or something

crimson bronze
#

Arthur Loathed being a debt collector but in terms of legality, Strauss was right on the money with that, It was the most legal 'work' he was doing

muted jetty
#

viridian is correct

verbal prairie
#

I think the debting was evil, and therefore Arthur was evil as he had every power to stop it earlier

#

even if he hated it, he never stopped it

honest drum
#

'them indians were savages'
'you better watch your mouth boy'
'dutch.. i saw thing-'
'i dont doubt you saw things, but your tiny little mind was to small to comprehend what you saw. What you saw were people who lost everything to savagery'

verbal prairie
#

he had all the power to

muted jetty
#

this entire argument hinges on nuace being dead and everything breaking into nice little moral boxes

honest drum
#

no.. your defending them killing innocent people

crimson bronze
#

No, There isn't exactly, but a loan is a like an investment, in a person.

verbal prairie
#

this entire arguement hinges on not defending a murderer and thief

#

I'm sorry, but as far as Arthur had good intentions, it changes absolutely nothing

#

it's an idea even touched in superhero films

honest drum
#

tell me this, with a yes or no answer, was arthur a good person? @muted jetty @crimson bronze

verbal prairie
#

they save the day, but at the end they leave a destroyed city and overall there's people dying because of them

muted jetty
#

@honest drum morality is subjective, nuance exists, and in a game where you can chose to kill entire towns, i don't think it's really a good question to ask

honest drum
#

no tell me

#

do YOU think he was a good guy

muted jetty
#

literally i just explained why it isn't a yes/no question

verbal prairie
#

in terms of canons, not player decisions, Arthur is still a bad person

#

robbing the innocent on a train for a quick example

#

doing the debting for another

#

killing Pinkerton's and soldier

#

these are all mandatory actions in the game

#

not choosing to shoot up a town

#

these are things Arthur has to do in every playthrough

#

and all undeniably evil things

crimson bronze
#

Generally? No, At the end of the day, his only redeeming moments were in his final days with the absolving of the last debts, ensuring the financial securities of Londonderry's Widow, J. J. Weathers and his wife, and Edith and Archie Downes along with ensuring that the Marston family were able to attempt going straight.

honest drum
#

i mean like you wouldn't say 'hitler was a bad guy'

muted jetty
#

you literally cannot comprehend nuance can you

honest drum
#

you literally cannot comprehend that they killed and robbed innocent people

#

and if you think thats what good people do

#

then the world is fucked

verbal prairie
#

what's the nuance in Hitler being good or bad?

#

it's a simple yes or no answer to most people

muted jetty
#

you factor in the nuance of hitler and he still ends up being bad because it's not like he did good things

verbal prairie
#

Hitler's soldiers? that's a different question

honest drum
#

exactly

muted jetty
#

you take a character who does BOTH BAD AND GOOD THINGS and you have nuance

honest drum
muted jetty
#

@honest drum dude i'm german, nothing he did was good for us.

verbal prairie
#

you have nuance in the idea that he did good things but I say again, will those good things save the lives of the innocent?

honest drum
#

so your telling me, in his 45 or smth years on the planet, he never did ONE good thing?

verbal prairie
#

I mean you genuinely massacre Pinkertons man

#

I think most people agree that Arthur had his moments, he did good things and had good intentions

#

but still killed, and nothing changes that

honest drum
#

bad people do good things

#

good people do bad things

#

arthur was a bad person

#

but he did some good things

#

even when the gang were in their prime

muted jetty
#

he freed slaves, donated to the poor, beat up the klan, absolved people's debts, and saved a good dozens of people's lives

honest drum
#

robbing and giving the money to orphanages and that

#

they still robbed

#

and killed

honest drum
#

and killed downses

muted jetty
#

THOUSANDS? definitely not

hidden moss
#

he killed the bad guys though

honest drum
#

bruh lmao

#

deffo thousands

#

he did 20 years

#

of robbing

#

and killing

#

we kill like 100 people a mission

muted jetty
#

you know the number of enemies are inflated for gameplay, right?

honest drum
#

yes i know

#

but still

hidden moss
#

game roll has a good point

honest drum
#

even canon wise

#

he kills a lot

hidden moss
#

bruh

#

you expect no cop to show up while robbing a bank?

honest drum
#

thats not our point lmao

#

he still killed

#

BECAUSE he was robbing the bank in the first place

verbal prairie
#

let's say your mother was the wife of an innocent killed by arthur, now think, would him giving you some money redeem him?

hidden moss
#

btw gameplay kills dont count

verbal prairie
#

would him absolving your debt you happen to owe redeem him?

honest drum
verbal prairie
#

Edith downes surely wasn't happy with her money

verbal prairie
honest drum
#

yes main mission kills r the ones that count

#

free roam nah

verbal prairie
#

free roam obviously not

#

if it counted I could massacre all of the map and argue he's a bad person for that

honest drum
#

my john has a 1k bounty in each state but canon wise he gets concerned over a 50 dollar one

muted jetty
#

yeah 50$ in 1899 is alot

honest drum
#

thats not my point lmao#

verbal prairie
honest drum
#

ikr lol

#

and slaves

muted jetty
#

the most based approach

honest drum
#

are side missions

#

so they're not canon either

verbal prairie
#

donating to the poor, free roam

muted jetty
#

the slaves are a stranger mission, full cannon ending is doing all of the stranger missions

honest drum
#

because by default, main missions are the only official canon

#

unless the devs say different

verbal prairie
#

absolving debts? lol? what about the other debts he didn't, what about the father he killed over a debt

#

and also he only really absolves 1 debt, Jameson you can choose to take from

#

as far as I remember

muted jetty
#

we know that the true ending of rdr2 is high honor help john

#

so that means that in canon arthur would've been high honor

verbal prairie
#

looooll

#

canon Arthur also killed and robbed the innocent what's your point

honest drum
#

lmao

#

this guy can't be serious

muted jetty
#

thus, high honor choices are going to be canon

verbal prairie
#

thus, high honour Arthur also killed and robbed the innocent

honest drum
#

mate you can't be fr

#

side missions do not matter

verbal prairie
#

you're completely ignoring what we're saying, we've clearly acknowledged his good actions

muted jetty
#

side missions are canon lol

honest drum
verbal prairie
#

but you're struggling to acknowledge that he's a murderer

honest drum
#

because like i said

#

side missions aren't canon

#

by default

#

if rockstar said they are

#

then fe

#

if they were, side missions wouldn't be side missions

#

they'd be main

muted jetty
#

that's not how game design works when it comes to story

humble coral
#

what are you discussing guys

honest drum
#

despite him killing thousands of people

#

he did good shit yes

crimson bronze
#

If we're considering 100% completion as canon

muted jetty
#

thousands is impossible dude

honest drum
#

no it's not..

#

20 years

crimson bronze
#

Then yes, the side missions have to be canon

muted jetty
#

20 years? one man?

honest drum
#

of robbing and killing

muted jetty
#

really?

#

do you think that every single one of his crimes ended in a gunfight?

humble coral
#

well arthur definetly was a bad man during his life but i think that's mainly because of dutch and his philosophies

honest drum
#

still was a bad man

#

and no

#

nothing to do with dutch

#

dutch was a bad dude too

humble coral
#

i mean it kinda had to do

honest drum
#

despite doing good

muted jetty
#

i think the man who raised arthur does

humble coral
#

because he raised them

muted jetty
#

yes

humble coral
#

from the young age

muted jetty
#

14 years old

#

lol

humble coral
#

and teached them everything about the life

honest drum
#

he still killed people....

humble coral
#

yes he did mate

muted jetty
#

and so do people in the army

humble coral
#

im not saying he wasn't a bad man

muted jetty
#

are they bad people?

honest drum
#

thats the stupidest argument i've ever heard lmao

muted jetty
#

nuance exists

honest drum
#

the army was for a good cause

muted jetty
#

wait a second

#

so does intent matter or not

honest drum
#

not for fucking robbing

honest drum
#

kind of

#

depends

#

what it is

muted jetty
#

no literally it does, in the criminal courts, intent matters

#

that's why we have like 5 different forms of murder

verbal prairie
#

intent makes him have good intentions that's all

humble coral
#

however in the game i don't think arthur ever kills innocent people unless you make him to

verbal prairie
#

intent to save his criminal gang is not exactly viable in court

#

lol

humble coral
#

so game wants you to choose

verbal prairie
#

he does lol

humble coral
#

whether you want arthur to be good or bad guy

honest drum
verbal prairie
#

Pinkertons, us soldiers

humble coral
#

i dont remember

verbal prairie
#

etc

#

etc

#

oops

humble coral
#

those weren't good people

#

and definetly not innocent people

honest drum
humble coral
#

you know who pinketons were

verbal prairie
#

Pinkertons weren't good people?

humble coral
#

right

#

?

#

what

verbal prairie
#

did I hear correct

honest drum
#

so every single US army soldier was a bad guy?

#

same with pinkertons

humble coral
#

you dont know whether they were bad or good people

verbal prairie
#

the higher ups in the Pinkertons were obviously bad

humble coral
#

they literally wanted to murder

honest drum
#

do your fucking research mate, the pinkertons as a whole were bad

humble coral
#

their captain

verbal prairie
#

but regular pinkerton workers?

honest drum
#

it's like german soldier

#

in WW2

#

@humble coral i suggest you read through this entire discussion

muted jetty
#

am german, all german soldiers in ww2 were nazis, we left, they could've

honest drum
#

we've covered this

verbal prairie
#

they couldn't leave lol

#

wtf

honest drum
#

u don't even know the history of your own country

muted jetty
#

yes the fucking could

honest drum
#

ah yes and be shot

#

or hanged

#

or families murderd

#

even today

muted jetty
#

germans were allowed to leave the country you dumbass

humble coral
#

pinkertons were scums

honest drum
#

you can't just go 'aight im going home'

humble coral
#

and army, we can't really tell who's bad guy or who isn't

honest drum
#

i mean SOLDIERS

humble coral
#

we dont have history of every single guy

#

we kill

#

in fucking game dude

verbal prairie
#

yeah and there were innocents in the army, no?

muted jetty
#

the pinkertons were used to prevent the WORKERS from getting FAIR WAGES

humble coral
#

if i cant argue they were bad people then you cant argue they were good poeple

#

because guess what? no1 fucking knows

honest drum
muted jetty
#

@verbal prairie in the rule of war, no armed combattant is an innocent, only those who are civilians are

verbal prairie
#

lmfao

#

so those soldiers

#

deserved to die to Arthur and dutch huh

honest drum
verbal prairie
#

every last one of them

honest drum
#

some were

#

yes

humble coral
#

how do you know

#

that

muted jetty
#

who's saying they deserved it

humble coral
#

??????

verbal prairie
#

I'm saying they didnt

honest drum
muted jetty
#

who's saying they deserved

hidden moss
humble coral
#

i literally said

verbal prairie
#

and that Arthur is evil for killing them

humble coral
#

if i cant argue they were bad

#

how are you arguing they were good

#

how the fuck do you know mate

honest drum
#

im not

#

im arguing they're innocent

#

big difference

humble coral
#

you dont know

#

that too

honest drum
#

bro you make no sense

humble coral
#

because what makes them innocent?

verbal prairie
humble coral
#

which soldier did arthur kill

#

that was innocent

#

?

#

because you get to fight us army twice in game i think

verbal prairie
#

redemption is never about making yourself a good person

humble coral
#

once is when you try to save that captain

muted jetty
#

@verbal prairie guess every soldier needs redemption huh

verbal prairie
#

?

humble coral
#

and 2nd time is when you want to save rain fall's kid

muted jetty
#

they've killed

humble coral
#

so if they were innocent

muted jetty
#

specially nowadays

#

an not for good causes

humble coral
#

why did they hunt eagle flies

#

and try to kill him

#

?

hidden moss
#

you fight the us army more than twice

honest drum
#

BECAUSE EAGLE FLIES FUCKING TRIED TO KILL SOLDIERS

humble coral
#

if they were all innocent why did they keep killing natives

#

?

#

they literally

honest drum
humble coral
#

were stealing their land

#

and killing them

verbal prairie
#

the soldiers in question were either good or bad, we can't say for them individually but we know 100% there were good people there who didn't have to die

humble coral
#

for fuck sake

honest drum
#

just because the ;eaders were bad doesn't make them bad

muted jetty
#

eagle flies had his land and home torn away from him by the US government

honest drum
#

instantly

muted jetty
#

they acted on the will of their leaders

humble coral
#

mate you are responsible for your actions

honest drum
#

the government as a whole

humble coral
#

if they are excused for killing natives

honest drum
#

not those soldiers

muted jetty
#

soldiers act on the will of their orders

humble coral
#

because their leaders told them to

#

then arthur is excused

#

because dutch told him to

#

????

muted jetty
#

if soldiers kill natives because their orders say so, they're still bad people

#

@humble coral no no, man, you've gotta be a GOVERNMENT of course /s

honest drum
#

there's a big difference between the army and a bunch of killing, thieving outlaws

humble coral
#

you realise

#

they were corrupt

#

?

#

what the fuck

honest drum
#

bruh

#

the soldiers?

#

so you think

humble coral
#

are you 12 if you belive army is just bunch of saints

honest drum
#

no...

humble coral
#

who's main mission is to protect you

#

?

muted jetty
#

the whole point of Red dead is that there isn't much difference between the government and outlaws

honest drum
#

ik the army are pieces of shit

#

the ARMY

#

not the soliders

humble coral
#

i literally said that if soldiers are excused because they're forced into doing it

muted jetty
#

what are the soldiers apart of

hidden moss
#

🍿 ArthurSip

humble coral
#

then arthur is excused too

#

because he's forced into it too

#

what is so hard to understand

#

you're trying soo hard to make arthur look like a total piece of shit who enjoyed murdering people and robbing them

honest drum
#

i can't believe this is even a discussion

humble coral
#

from the start of the game he keeps saying how he doesn't like loan sharking

sinful hound
humble coral
#

and how he's forced into doing it

honest drum
#

he's not forced too

humble coral
#

because no1 else wants to

#

yes he was

muted jetty
#

yeah and us troops didn't like killing civilians in vietnam, they still did it

honest drum
#

yes some did

#

im not saying that

#

there are pieces of shit soliders

humble coral
#

you saw what happens when arthur doesn't follow dutch's orders

#

blindly

honest drum
#

but it's unfair to call them all pieces of shit who deserved death

humble coral
#

he's immediatly a doubter

#

and a traitor

@honest drum do you think arthur deserved death?

honest drum
#

dutch doesn't even like it

humble coral

how do you know

honest drum

in a way

humble coral
#

he literally allowed

muted jetty
#

humble coral
#

to start loan sharking busniess

#

it's his decision

#

he's leader of the gang

honest drum
humble coral
#

arthur is just enforcer

honest drum
#

i don't want him too

humble coral
#

dude you have a giant hate boner on arthur

honest drum
#

but he deserved ut

#

kind of

humble coral
#

like it's pointless to argue

honest drum
#

i love him

#

but

humble coral
#

no you dont

muted jetty
#

@honest drum you don't want arthur to die and yet he deserves to die

honest drum
#

he was a bad dude

humble coral
#

lmao

honest drum
#

there's no arguing that

#

he killed and robbed innocent people

muted jetty
#

huh

#

sounds like

humble coral
#

dont pretend you like him when it's pretty obvious

muted jetty
#

nuance here

humble coral
#

you dont

muted jetty
#

that you can't fucking understand

honest drum
humble coral
#

you're excusing all the shit that people who were doing even worse things than him because they were ''forced into it''

honest drum
#

read it from start to finish

humble coral
#

but somehow ignore that arthur was forced

#

into doing everything he did

honest drum
#

arthur wasn't forced at all

humble coral
#

yes he was

muted jetty
#

yes he was

honest drum
#

dutch literally says arthur can run away]

humble coral
#

i already explained it

muted jetty
#

arthur can run away

#

to where?

humble coral
#

oh yea

#

he also said

muted jetty
#

where's he gonna go?

humble coral
#

john can go

#

and his family

muted jetty
#

what's he gonna do?

humble coral
#

then later on

honest drum
#

he wasn't forced into anything

humble coral
#

he left him to die

#

after he got shot

honest drum
#

even if he was

#

he killed people

humble coral
#

he's totally a good dude

#

doesn't hold a grudge at all

#

like wtf man

muted jetty
#

I honestly don't take any of what dutch says as the truth man

#

idk why you do

honest drum
#

ah sure i'll go and rob innocent people

humble coral
#

i said that for dutch

#

because somehow you're trying to ignore

muted jetty
#

and was being sarcastic

humble coral
#

that dutch literally didnt give a fuck about john

#

after arthur told him they want to leave

#

he left him to die after he got shot at train

honest drum
#

you guys really dont understand me

humble coral
#

he also left abigail to die

honest drum
#

read this discussion

#

from start

humble coral
#

after pinkertons got her

honest drum
#

to finish

muted jetty
#

i've been here, dumbass

humble coral
#

you're repeating same bullshit

#

ignoring my points

honest drum
#

how has this turned into a dutch discusison

muted jetty
#

gameroll, you just can't accept shit

humble coral
#

i dont want to discuss anymore

honest drum
#

arthur a good person pfff

#

he did good

#

yes

#

im not denying that

muted jetty
#

also, given the fact you said you had thousand dollar bounties, i get the feeling you intentionally play him as bad as possible

humble coral
#

you're repeating same exact stuff

#

that you said

#

from the start

honest drum
humble coral
#

but ignore everything we say

honest drum
#

nope

#

i can't be arsed for this

humble coral
honest drum
#

you clearly just don't get me

muted jetty
#

you literally aren't acknoledging a word he says

honest drum
#

like at all

humble coral
#

feelings are mutual i'd say

#

because you obviously don't get us too

honest drum
muted jetty
#

I PREDATE HIM BEING HERE

honest drum
#

we proved you wrong at the start

humble coral
#

might be because im making a good points

#

which are u trying to disprove by repeating exact same shit

honest drum
humble coral
#

you already said 100 times

honest drum
#

im not denying what your saying isn't true

muted jetty
#

how am i repeating what he's saying when i was here first

honest drum
#

but

muted jetty
#

making the same points

honest drum
#

because he was forced to do smth

#

doesn't make him a good guy

#

and he rlly wasn't

#

forced

#

especially before 1899

hidden moss
#

my take: the characters are so well written and complex that its not possible to put them at categories so easily as "good" or "bad". thats what makes a "character". both arthur and dutch. thanks for coming to my ted talk.

supple nest
#

i once kicked a snake while chasing a small animal

muted jetty
#

@hidden moss this is just what i've been saying lol

#

like, i've been playing my arthur as good as i can be

supple nest
#

lol snake got rekt

honest drum
#

that doesn't make him good

supple nest
#

why is there snakes in this game

muted jetty
#

beating up eugenecists, hunting down the lemoyne raiders and killing the klan and shit

muted jetty
#

well it is canon that arthur doesn't like the klan

#

lol

honest drum
#

yes ik

muted jetty
#

like

#

really doesn't like

supple nest
#

what clan

honest drum
#

so? whats your point

honest drum
supple nest
#

oh

#

k

muted jetty
#

i mean, what's the point of including something in the game if it's not canon?

supple nest
#

never seen them ingame

honest drum
#

We're literally going around in circles

#

lmao

muted jetty
#

answer the fucking question dumbass

supple nest
#

cannon is canon

honest drum
#

player choice

muted jetty
#

at one point, devs have to decide what choice is the correct one

honest drum
#

you could choose to help a guy who's been bitten by a snake or shoot him

supple nest
#

why didnt john do that to the dog

honest drum
verbal prairie
#

wtf this is still going on

honest drum
#

i asked this before

#

and u didn't

honest drum
verbal prairie
#

oh btw Arthur can pick up his lantern and join the kkk rather than killing him player choice

honest drum
#

we're back at the side missions canon part

hidden moss
#

im worried about his sanity

supple nest
#

next game should have a giant snake boss fight because theres a giant snake easter egg

#

or online

muted jetty
#

coming from a game dev, series HAVE to have canon choices if you want to be logically consistent

native dew
#

Ok

muted jetty
#

unless you hate continuity

supple nest
#

im gonna make a game then make a sequel but make everything non canon

#

also what game did you make im curious

muted jetty
#

NDA

supple nest
#

whats that

muted jetty
#

I can't talk about that

supple nest
#

Non-Disclosure Agreement

#

what

muted jetty
#

i have

#

a non disclosure agreement

supple nest
#

whats that

muted jetty
#

i cannot talk about the games i work on

supple nest
#

its like releasing a game but delete it because you cant let other players play it

verbal prairie
#

ahahhah ok

muted jetty
#

I am not going to do this again

verbal prairie
#

dont

muted jetty
#

nobody ever fucking believes that a dev for a company exists

supple nest

what

muted jetty
#

and uses discord

verbal prairie
#

nothing you said made sense, majority of the good points came from @humble coral

supple nest
#

why am i talking here i stopped playing the game long before rdr2 got released for pc

#

because it was boring

hidden moss
#

guys, I realized something, rockstar games is slightly dying, gta online is to blame for that, I don't think I need to explain it

spark shard

"Don't take damage" Sounds easy enough, hide behind cover right. Not so easy when you're surrounded everywhere with lots of enemies

supple nest
#

if you talk about your games you are working on you can increase fans and money if you make the game cost money

muted jetty
#

i'm not... indie?

supple nest
#

and amnesia rebirth made people very hyped and it got many players at release idk if its indie or not

muted jetty
#

i mean

honest drum
#

isn't indie just a small dev team

supple nest
#

like among us they made tons of money when popular youtubers played it

muted jetty
#

yeah and that game's released

its indie game btw

i can't talk about a game that's not released when i am a single dev in a massive dev team

I didn't want to say that because I know that VARIOUS of you are going to hate me for it but ... aren't we supposed to be the villains in red dead? because like, we kill innocents, steal people, destroy cities. and even if you avoid killing innocents as much as possible, at some point you are forced to kill, after all in the blackwater massacre we are somehow guilty of the people who died, an example: The pinkertons, not all of them were bad, many just wanted to win money, while others were bad and others thought they were doing the world good by killing criminals. we destroy the families of innocents, and even though history makes us look good, look at ourselves, what are we? a gang in which members sometimes kill each other.

tawdry idol

They make fun of me

spark shard
# hidden moss I didn't want to say that because I know that VARIOUS of you are going to hate m...

The gang was basically like, killing and robbing people who weren't exactly innocent themselves, helped innocent people, stuff like that, but then they fell from grace and turned into killers.

Don't say the pinkertons and cornwall are innocent either lol.

The law are just doing their job though, except the grays they're corrupt.

As for other gangs, well, no argument here, like the odriscolls deserve their fates.

Plus the story is put in the eyes of the gang so they view the "disagreeable men" as evil in their story.

hidden moss
#

and of course some were psychopaths and wanted to kill people

hidden moss
spark shard
#

Generally anyone who wants to hunt the van der linde gang

#

Like the pinkertons

Or the odriscolls

hidden moss
# spark shard Or the odriscolls

I understand, but did you understand what I said about the pinkertons? I know the history of the group, and even though it doesn’t make any sense at all in rdr 2, since the old west full of criminals didn’t even exist in real life. many got together for money, and did the usual bad things

is it just me or should rockstar have developed javier into turning on arthur? honestly i thought he was pretty cool and was hit blind sided when javier chose to side with micah in the end

time limit requirement sucks. i hate it

i want to get the gold rush achievement but im afraid its gonna cause me to hate the game

Time limit on killing enemies I get. By anything else you can go fuck yourself

the fact that gold rush achievement has a lower percentage than It's art achievement speaks volumes. gold medals are bull**** to get.

It's art is easier though

You just hunt a few animals

I really hope I don't get the "don't take damage" requirement on a mission like the saint denis bank job, fleeting joy, that skinner brother mission, etc.

Cuz you know thats sum bullshit

hidden moss
#

I can’t remember, but that would prob not happen

#

They still have some logic at r*😄

#

Saint denis bank is impossible to not get hit

It’s prob just “don’t take health items”

he has his gun up in the air
