Okay So high and low honor have different cut scenes in different parts of the game and I believe if you have high honor you get discounts on things in the stores
high honor gives some store discounts as well as some outfits, some outfits are low honor. Oh, and high honor the police are more likely to forgive minor crimes
and yeah some cutscenes are slightly different
arthur is generally greedier in low honor
mhm
Thanks a lot
it also impacts the ending
Sometimes I accidentally aim my guns at people because L2 is to interact with people as well as aim so I always have to remember to put my guns back
yeah, with so many controls rdr2 has the fault of a lot of actions being the same button
Dang
cause with pc
How is it worse?
for some reason
they made the entire keyboard have functionality
practically every button does something and usually multiple of something
im gonna bare through it
just cause i wanna play and i cant wait <3 days for xmas
Nice!
I was about to buy it on steam, but I decided to get it on PS4 recently instead because my friend also has it on PS4 and we wanted to play Online together
Benefit of PC, you don’t need a subscription to play multiplayer
Like the serial killer that taunts the cops, Dutch can't help but secretly flaunt the location in that conversation
I forget what he says exactly but something about how his mother got the last laugh
The woman who never approved of his career path now keeping safe the fruits of that path... which he can't get to anymore
Idk I could be spitballing but all the pieces fit. It's the one place in Blackwater nobody would ever check. Even Arthur is hesitant to rob graves.
Old Milton never could have guessed that spot.
It does make a lot of sense. Digging up graves and robbing them is considered extremely disrespectful and I don’t think Milton would ever think that Dutch would dig up his own mothers grave to hide the money
It really does all fit together
Which is kinda why I'm in love with this theory
Because Dutch is always that low down and awful
He riled up the best of Wapiti's generations and pointed them at the oil field, killing almost everyone
He'd certainly dig up his mother
Hell, he shot that hostage on the boat in cold blood
Not to mention leaving Arthur and John to die
Two people that were basically his sons
That too
But like this one Mexican dude I shared a camp with said, betrayal from those closest can be expected
Granted he was talking about the Three Annesberg brothers and their gold but still
I knew he was low down enough to do that, but using people like that just felt worse
disconnecting my old r* social club account cause it has a regrettable username
Maybe just cause I knew he was gonna turn based on John in rdr1
r* just let me unlink my account ffs
dont make me jump through suppourt hoops hhhhhhhh
time to wait
I just feel like that would seriously be a good place for Dutch to hide the money
Because as crazy as he is he’s very smart
another good place would have been inside a political building
as nobody would have the gall to accuse the mayor (even indirectly) of hiding the money
I was bringing back 2 rabbits and a deer to camp, and I got there and y'know that one cut sense thing with the clouds, yeah that happened and now the food is rotten, does anyone know why this happened other then enemies?
also i hate rockstar suppourt oml
they were probably dead too long
Nah, they were fresh when I got there
idk then
I like ur pfp! I'm trans too! :)
eYYYYYY
Too bad u play on pc :(
bruh why the cinnamon toast fuck do i need to contact rockstar suppourt to unlink my social club account
i just want to play rdr2
Dang
they replied instantly to tell me to email them proof and then they just, vanished
R* support seems kinda shitty
yknow what, i dont even want this account
i made it back in my edgelord phase when i was like, 14 or 15
back when i thought communism was the pinnacle of humor
ill have to wait 2 hours to request a deletion
lmfao, glad i havent named any usernames like that
if they havent responded by then ill just delete the damn account
i guess other then this user which is kinda funny
i was gonna name it Smil but it doesnt fit so i named the account GoonBrann
which is my writing account/new emails name lmao
He/They/It's! :)
:DDDD
i always found it funny that u can never tell the gender of the animals u hunt (other then deer and pronghorn)
i think thats so they didnt have to model parts lmao
lmfao
or to just save space
LMAO
im trying to get the trophy the one with killing 20 bison cuz i want the natives to stare at me in disappointment
but idk how to other then get the evans repeater
that seems a lot better then the evans repeater
anyways i think i might go online cuz i've been playing story mode for too long now
i gotta balance it out
i also wanna see the winter update thingy
i havent seen it yet
i just wanna be able to play LMAO
its finee
i think one day i might try to get a mic plugged up to actually talk to the stupid idiots on the missions to actually do something for once
when i play ill just exist lmao
lmao
i wanna play as a mountain woman
oo
hunting, staying out of the action in the woods and mountains
and selling the results
Oof good luck
i've been saving up to get better clothes
i also made a woman account on another playstation thingy just cuz the woman clothing is so much better
im just gonna wear what looks like it'd fit a hunter
i always play as girls for the euphoria i get lmao
Any hats that look like Jamie Foxx’s hat in Django Unchained?
I don't really get dysphoria, and it seems kinda weird to a lot of other trans folk
No, I don't think I do sorry!
my dysphorias mostly around my body and face
well, upper body and face
so i usually just avoid thinking about it and play girl characters
Yeah, understandable
i really just lost note taht had the horse name i was gonna get im so mad
i found it omg
You aint a real cowpoke unless you can sing the Ballad of Otis Miller by heard
And that cowardly killer who shot Mr. Miller, has laid poor Otis in his graaaaaave!
Y’all know east ways to get gold
@marsh valley you know the easiest treasure hunts for the explorer challenges
Uhhh
Go to the obelisk by lake oujawa or whatever
That one gives 4-6 I think
I havent checked
That, Jack Hall Gang Map, the statue puzzle
Lots of easy gold out there
But go to the burned down town near Horseshoe overlook
There's a gold bar there
Now that I have horseman out of the way, I’m currently dreading explorer and herbalist
Herbalist in particular
Explorer isn't too bad
Often there's other stuff in the area to nab as well
It's just going from A to B
Yeah, but that takes time
Bandit is actually fun
I’d argue it’s the most fun challenge
It does
I just put on videos on my phone and pull up the interactive map so I can clear out all the stuff
Oh yeah
Doing 5 real train robberies is great
And by real I mean no witnesses because everyone is dead
Btw locomotives explode
I did not know this
I learned that there are apparently safes on trains
Where can u find the safes?
I always max out on dynamite whenever I use it
I usually hit the train arriving at Wallace Station for the associated shop robbery
And that one has safes in the cargo cars
i made around 150 robbing one train lol
How do you manage that?
Shotgun?
It's all corridors they cant kill you
Yup
Browning Auto-5
You have the advantage on the train, especially if you disable it on a bridge
rockstar suppourt still hasnt contacted me back
im probably just gonna delete the old account
Hiya guys
The story is so long im only on 23% (not complaining)
Enjoy the early bits while they last
Chapter 2 is the best chapter in my oppinion
Bro The free gun guy got scared away while talking to me cus I “disturbed the peace”
Anything before rat face is my favorite
What’s rat face
Chapter 2 is great
...but we must move on at some point
I rather like 3 as well
Higher stakes but you still have some time
Things haven't truly gone to hell yet
I started rdr2 thinking micah was like trevor or sumn
Nah he's worse
Trevor had a sense of loyalty
A man who valued friends
Micah only uses people
He has no friends
Once someone becomes sick or weak they're cut loose
Trevor has a good heart fr
yessir
Micah's is cold as Mount Hagen
i just blasted his balls with explosive ammo

I do like his death
Man had a lot of fight in him
The Rhodes Massacre, he kills three men before anybody has time to blink
I hate him but he's natural gunslinger
Which is why I love blinding him
Micah def a top 5 gunslinger
Good eyes are everything in his line of work
Missing one hurts
It's the lion who took down the water buffalo but his leg healed wrong
Living on borrowed time
Arthur can't kill him, shore, but he can hit him where it hurts
His talent
Plus his whole thing is surviving
Even he knows he's less likely to survive with that
Eyes don't heal
I hope we get to be Hosea
There's a man I want to see from the inside
I wanna be in his head
A clever con who isn't afraid to play it dirty
Part of me wants a rdr sequel
I want to know what jack does after his vengeance
Would love to choose different paths in the game like joining the army, becoming a rancher/gunslinger or reuniting with Charles or sadie
We sorta know from an easter egg in GTA
He does end up writing a book
But I'd rather wind the clock further back, escape the modern era
Ooh ye
Me too
Another concept would be the origins of the gang, just Hosea, dutch, and Arthur. Also John a little further into the game. It'll be about how the gang came to be and it's robberies for the poor then slowly descending into robberies for themselves, the game would end after the Blackwater ferry job
I wanna see Arthur and John as kids, Hosea and Dutch when they were a bit younger
I wanna know more about Hosea and his partner
Yeah
I'd love to know more yeah
Especially the whole "she knew what I was and accepted it" part
Definitely
Like I wanna know about what relationships they had before everything went to shit
But yeah I want a Hosea centric game
Because Arthur is his successor, and you could say Arthur passes that torch to John
I feel like Hosea alone took so much money from people because he’s a conman
And a good one at that
Jesus
So I just heard Grimshaw
Say that Dutch is "The ideal America was set up to create"
And he leaves her gutshot and dying and didn't cap Micah
That stings
She was a true believer
But yeah like
Hearing that story at Shady Belle about how he walks into a random man's wake by accident, reads the name, and suddenly improvs his way into being the man's lost best friend
"Did you rob them"
"Of course not you heartless bastard! We'd shared so many tears... I robbed the priest though."
Hosea is the perfect conman
A Trelawny type in the old school, more than willing to throw down to the mats
But able to bullshit like no other
That’s why I don’t understand why Dutch didn’t listen to Hosea about the bank robbery
Because you have to think at that point they probably robbed so many people of their money
Well
More why he didn't listen about Bronte
The robbery could/would have worked if they hadn't spent two missions prepping and killing Angelo
Hosea said it could be done
If not for Dutch's pride over being tricked and him indulging in revenge
It still could have worked
Heres my theory for a rdr sequel
After the events of the epilogue of rdr1, Jack marston settles in the ranch, starting a family and leaving his gunslinger past behind him for good, in 1917 the US joins WW1 thus issuing a nationwide draft, which Jack attempts to evade but eventually gets tracked down (he is on the top of the list because of his ability). He serves for some time then returns to his family for a short while, seeing the horrors of war he decides to spend more time with his family. The Government, recruiting Jack as a Special Operative, Holds his family as leverage, thus repeating the cycle his father was burdened by. he goes on dangerous missions then he completes his service. The Government stays true to their promise and returns Jacks family. Jack returns to his ranch and walks around at all the memories he had good and bad, he goes to the porch where uncle died, goes to the fishing spot John took him too when he was a boy, and his Fathers place of death, in front if the barn. The game ends with jack and his family standing by Johns, Uncles, And Abigails grave
Maybe the Pinkertons wouldn't have had the time to tighten that noose
Idk
Chapter 4 is fucked
You know by the opening that this is when things go wrong
Maybe we should've agreed to murder Hector Fellows idk
If Dutch never bonked his head things would’ve happened differently
Dutch knew micah was up to something
But I've asked a friend
He said he was more aggressive and impulsive and didn't think as clearly and long term when concussed
All of which matches Dutch
Well you also have to think that he got that concussion after watching his best friend and brother die
No
The concussion was during the trolley station bit
Hosea died two missions later
I feel like Dutchs mind is a void and every now and again he finds a bit of sense in that void but it doesn’t last forever, soon those bits would stop coming through
Got missions messed up
That concussion leads him to get enraged and want revenge
It’s been a good bit since I’ve played through story
But in the end Dutch got that final bit of sense, realizing his time has passed
That is the moment where things might have shaken out differently
But once Arthur agrees, the course is locked for destruction
In chapter 2 he understands that Micah is up to something
I feel like that may have changed things but Dutch was still hell bent with Micah supporting his every move
It's why he doesn't send him after the Blackwater money
Mhm
He knows Micah would cut and run
Dutch is a smart person
But Micah is an enabler, the guy offering the alcoholic another drink
No matter how smart, in Dutch's dark moments of the soul, Micah was there to provide assurance that yes, this is the best plan boss
nevermind that he's dismantling the gang, he's giving Dutch a Yes
Mhmm
And damn Dutch for not being able to recognize Arthur is now filling in for Hosea
Hosea should’ve been Micah
Hosea was definitely what kept Dutch grounded and made him think about his decisions and then Micah comes around and weasels his ass in there and Dutch doesn’t listen as well
Damn his death scene is tragic
Like a politician, its easier for Dutch to make the decision when someone else says what he is privately thinking
Hosea knew he was a dead man
And had one regret
That his knowledge was obtained at such a price...
After Hosea died Micah took his place, unlike Hosea who gave his wise opinions whether they agreed with dutch or not, Micah just assures Dutch so he could get what he wants
But he died standing up, and he definitely gave Abigail the time she needed to run
Fuck micah man
Cause Abigail escaping I think is all up to Hosea distracting the Pinkertons
Otherwise they would have nabbed her for leverage
Like Milton does later
Oh it definitely was
amogus
whoops adhd
But no he's cold hearted but he cares about people
Hosea has done some twisted shit
But he's learned that he needs people to care for
basically how my low honor Arthur acts
@marsh valley whats ur opinion on agent milton
Horrible man....... but he has a bit of a point
Hosea is honestly a g
And he explains why Ross is like he is
Bad, bad men
I think Milton was actually a good person imo
Agent Milton has some fucked up skin
hear me out
He’s good but, in the story hes protrayed as a bad guy
But Milton has abandoned his righteousness for victory
He will be as bad as the outlaws if it means ending them
True
Which... I can respect
He gave the gang several chances to leave without consequences at the price of dutch and he kept offering until they forced his hand
I just played the level where Sean dies and I got the fright of my life
Oh no..
It was so unexpected
That's where it all goes sour
I hated how Sean died
I love the low honor reaction
Why did my message get deleted
He was very annoying but like
Everyone who wouldve sided with arthur got killed
Arthur describes his death in the cutscene and whines about no gold
A brother or sibling annoying
Yeah he was one of my favourites I was starting to like him
But then in the journal he mourns Sean
Realizing how much he loved him... too late
Low honor is such conflicting emotions
Sean, Lenny, Kieran,
At least he didn't die like Kieran
Kieran death was horrible
And Lenny... right there the future is dead
I haven’t seen Lenny die yet
Arthur's other protege is dead
Low honor Arthur dont give no shits
That’s gonna be sad
i love how alot of the deaths are sudden
Lenny hurt my soul because I really liked him
Low honor Arthur cares... but all he sees is the violence
His mind is clouded by it all
A world he can't control that rips people away
low honor arthur gives up to the fight with the giant
You didn’t get much play time with him but I loved him
There is real og respect in low honor saving john
Dying a bad man who did a good thing
Bruh, i cant joke about spoiling iron man dying
But I prefer the about switch that comes after the doctor
high honor arthur going for the gold is the worst ending
Low to High
same
i dont keep arthur like, low low
he feels like he was supposed to be a tragic villain tbh
Micah was destined to be a villain
A man so awful his own brother swears to kill him
He's the apex predator of the wild west
personally i hate pure evil characters
As much as I hate Micah he played his part very well
But think
His brother was the only one to break the cycle
Micah and his father didnt
Micah is the essential counterpoint
I prefer that being underplayed
but atleast give him justification
no, tragic villains arent victims
He crossed and burned that bridge long ago
theyre villains motivated to do bad because of a past issue
Not quite what I mean
His father was a famous outlaw and micah took on and learned from his father who murdered and robbed
But like
His father raised him to be like this
and, i still wish he got his chance at redemption
And at some point before this
arthur morgan got his chance and we all know arthur did messed up shit
Micah decided he liked this way of living
legit arthur only really changes because he got TB
And that is a fascinating twist
Cause he's like Mac and Davey
But he knows the end is coming
and honestly
it would be better in my opinion if we saw micah actively get his chance
like, some major event
I just believe Micah is broken somewhere deep inside
that would have set him down the path of redemption
but he rejects it
what arthur could be
Not really, he changes brcause he knows he’s screwed, which he would find out either way after clemens point
From birth or from his father
But he's broken
I like the idea that an irredeemable man can exist
Someone truly too far gone
Whats yalls theory for jack in rdr3
French Foreign Legion
i hope rdr3 follows a new story
On the run from the FBI
Your ww1 theory was kinda good
I could see it
i honestly hope rdr3 takes place in australia
Jack'd hold that grudge and die a draft dodger
Yeah, anything with the government he would hate
But I could see him fleeing the country and winding up in the French Foreign Legion
in case anyone missed it

Having absolutely ruined his birthright of Beecher's Hope by killing Ross
Cause you know they won't let that go
imagine sadie adler in Australia for rdr3
A decorated FBI agent murdered
Sadie would just be a bounty hunter
Ross is a old forgotten man
Unless Archer gets the case and buries it... he liked John Marston
that would be fun tbh
playing as a bounty hunter, and her redemption is her learning to deal with her past properly
I mean it could but she would only be a bounty hunter
He's on the ground floor when the Federal Government creates the Bureau
His murder gets investigated
Very true
And unless Archer, who honored the deal with Marston and didnt show up to kill him catches the case
Jack is a fugitive from the law
I’d like to see Sadie truly happy again, but it’s very possible she’s happy being alone and bounty hunting
But equally I'd like to see Jack catch that break
That the lead investigator knows its him... and knows Ross deserved it
Archer would definitely drop the case, all he would see is a boy getting vengeance for his father
or, hell, make rdr3 a preprequel
Ross just followed his mentor and stuck the knife in
It's what Milton would have done if Arthur had turned cooperator
I never wanna be Dutch
Cause I feel like Dutch has always been manipulating others
Hosea is the one I wanna be
Cause like Arthur and John after him, he cared a lot
I subscribe to the theory Dutch has always been this bad, but the events of 1899 split him open
Let all the evil spill out
Dutch did his best to hold the evil in
Like he said on the mountain you cant fight nature
But idk if that was for his benefit to look good or to protect others
or if hes just never suppressed it and always been lowkey shitty
Like Colm's plan fails because Dutch doesn't go looking in a rage...
But also that might be because I vanish for a week going hunting
Micah was for sure behind that one tho
I felt like that was him trying to sell Arthur out and thin out the gang
Definitely
Micah definitely saw arthur as a threat
Hosea too
And he noticed Hosea's cough
His old age, weakness
And kinda goes after him about it
That Colm fiasco was one of Micahs only chances to get rid of arthur without looking sus
And Pearson under Micah's coaching conveniently has a parlay offer...
no
Micah talks to them
They set it up so Pearson gets the idea they thought of it themselves
And Dutch buys it
Arthur gets got while Micah keeps Dutch from making a dumb move and trying to save Arthur, getting them all caught
Because there would be no way colms men would let Pearson go
No way in hell
Pearson is great, and I wouldn't trust not to lose something valuable to him in a fight to the death, but...
They'd kill his ass easy
Although he has no gunslinger abilities, like strauss he is loyal
Remember that strauss died in custody and never said anything
Surprising considering Arthur boots him out
But Strauss redeems himself in never talking a word
He did some shit
But he owned it in the end, never tied a noose around anyone's necks
I can respect it
Strauss knew his work was wrong and shameful so he didnt fight arthurs boot
Im exited for GTA6
Or RDR3
or both if all studios work on it
ong
the genre is out of style and ripe for a fresh rendition
rn Rockstar is the only one who seems to be following it up
and I need more
Like WWII games
Popular back when games looked like shit, went out of style
Now we get new renditions
Rockstar just living off of sequels at thus point
Years of military shooters make me crave that gunslinger you vs a few lawmen kind of life
They kinda are yeah
Not that they do an awful job with sequels per say
Max Payne 3 was good
not complaining but one of these days they need to cone up with something fresh
And I guarantee you some of that tech went into RDR2's death animations
It just feels similar idk how to put it
Aside from the open world and being able to matrix dodge, a lot is the same
I never played max payne
I recommend it
Good series, and Rockstar made the third one
Which is not the same as 1 and 2, but it looks better
I've only played Max Payne, some GTA, and RDR
Rdr, gta, max payne, and bully are a few very well known franchises by rockstar
But the way enemies clutch wounds and die, that's all Max Payne 3 tech
Good stuff
And for pc, the good pinpoint aiming out of that game too
funny asf when u shoot their balls
Oh yeah
them clutching lmfaooo
There's tactics to shooting a guy in the knees/balls
And then getting the prone headshot when they fall
Or have the LeMat and just shoot em in the chest
2 ideally
12 is better than 6 in the chamber
And 18 is better than 9
Lemat and the modern pistol are overpowered
Plus a sawn off shotgun in two revolvers
See I'm okay with that
Watched any Westworld?
Nope
Honestly i really love the M1899 Pistol
Off topic
I love Albert Mason
Even if I hunt more than he'd like
Arthur takes such a joy in his quests
Money isn't even a concern he's just having fun
Man hands him a wolf photo and he just has this childlike grin and walks off
Yeah I noticed that only last run
I loved his side missions
Yeah that
Except with 50% more fear and 100% more trembling
Albert knows nothing about the wilds, but he's determined
I liked the mission in the swamp
Where your in the boat
Taking pics of the alligators
Man loves flirting with death
Fr
But he's genuinely in it for the nature/science
Yea
or photography
And that's what Arthur so loves
He's constantly amused this babe out of the cradle photographer is out here tryna take pictures of wolves
And impressed
The man lacks knowledge but he has spirit
And in a different way, so does Arthur
Just he knows little of civilized living and science and such
Hello guys, i have a question, i just bought the game and i don't really familiar with all the things, does have a high honor or low honor will affect the story? Currently 33% story
Yup
It will for sure change the story
From small journal entries down to what Arthur says in the cutscenes sometimes
But you'll see the biggest difference in chapter 6
I encourage low honor tho
I had the most fun with being a bad guy
I thought having low honor will make the story less interesting and some things will not go smooth as i thought it would
I wouldn't say less interestin
Just
Think a man more in tune with his emotions vs a man who is thorougly jaded
that's the immediate difference
But I find depth in both low and high honor
Arthur Morgan is a complicated character no matter how you play him
but ending with high honor is best, I just do low until a certain point, which I'm sure youll figure out
Ok, thank you my g
What’s bully?
Is that another open world one
Bully the game
idk what the real title is
but like
Youre some schoolkid or something
Stagecoach stealing. Fence them for like, 45$ a piece or something like that.
Blue stages, 4 door stages, and certain full size wagons are 45$.
one more thing on something else I guess
yo can also take the stage by the emerald ranch train station
quick 45
Is this another "Michael is in Witness Protection" theories
Nah this has some evidence backing it up
no the evidence is you take 42k at the end of the get the money ending
that's the blackwater money, it's added to the 20k of the blackwater money
what evidence is there to this exactly
Which, at least 66k was kept by Micah and Dutch
Uh, the explicit word of Micah that he has the Blackwater take
And John, Charles, and Sadie split it up
The cave money is the stuff we've been collecting all game
ah
Feel free to compare it to the gang accounts tally in the journal
It's roughly the same
So that leads to where did Dutch hide it
and he hid it in a grave
it's really not like, just 50k or so
Somewhere nobody looks even as the town expands over the next 8 years
it's like 40k something
wait so you're saying the blackwater money was never taken
Nope
did they fear blackwater that much
buh
Yup
and to think John just walks into town
See, we could've just sent Sadie and Trelawny
And all escaped
Yup
Then again he isn't entirely made
Law enforcement kinda missed him for a while
Until 1911 anyway
But yeah
His own mother's grave is a genius place to hide the money
Nobody would check it, or even assume someone could be that low
I can't remember there being any evidence he said where the money was. More or less.
I remember talk, but nothing firm. I swore Arthur knew
But it makes sense
Arthur knows nothing
Micah might know, given he was along during the escape and hiding....
But he also asks Dutch to tell him so he can grab it
man this is the one layer of the game I kinda just let be abstract. Is there really more to the money thing?
Idk
Dutch talking about his mother being buried in Blackwater, it just fits
Somewhere they'd never look, and he'd remember where
like how much of the money thing am I missing? I get what Dutch wanted asides from the money. He wants to lead a political revolution.
All of this is theory
But I think the pieces fit
Well, Dutch just wants to play king with his round table of knights
But the money is how that happens in his mind
but I don't get the money. I'm asking like, what is the deal with the blackwater money? Is it just not touched upon much?
Is it the source of the conflict?
Not a lot until we lay hands on it in the epilogue... and every time Micah mentions it
But it's why we ended up in the mountains
the 5 million dollar take in today money from the ferry job
I know that. I want to know like, the game is more about the camp's share of the current take, not the ferry job?
that Dutch hid somewhere and now we can't get it back
that's left mostly a mystery right?
Yeah the money of this game is all what we've been making
From the train job to the train job
That's the big bag in the chapter 6 ending
I wish I could've burned it all just to watch Micah cope
Micah wouldn't cope if we shot him
let alone if you burned the money
Wishing all the other members like lenny, sean, grimshaw, sadie, and charles stayed with us so we could ratio micah
Worry not
I find Micah too entertaining to kill
I think Arthur is reunited with them all
He really thinks he's Trevor
Sean, Hosea, Lenny, Grimshaw, Hamish, Buell, all of them
yeah
I let my black Arabian die
Bro
That horse had at least 200 hours on him
never used another horse as Arthur
he might be the best horse I ever had
never struggled around gators
I actually am really sad thinking about it
I kinda don't wanna buy another one because of how much time I had on that one horse
it's the only time I ever did that
Buell was the horse that matched my stats
the boosted "I did the ten challenges" stats
9 or 10
idk
I had the Tennessee Walker from Colter.
I sell it
it's really slow
like legitimately too slow to travel cross country with like I do
But in my first playthrough, I think I had an Hungarian halfbred.
Off topic sorry
But I love the turnaround Swanson makes
When everything goes to shit
The Reverend has achieved clarity and is doing his best
And going low to high honor, you join him in that
He pulls his head out of his ass
And I love it
How he’s such a shithead for half the game
And then he gets a series of knocks
Like shit
His brother is more a father to his kid than he is for a long time
nah not low honor they just actually redeem themselves
Well
“Brother”
But what does it matter
To Jack Arthur is always Uncle Arthur
It’s the thing about the gang that truly made it different. Even if the reasons were lies, it was still some kind of family for a long time
what I do not like about low honor ending is that you fail to harm Micah
Yeah…
and the lower your honor
In low honor it’s best to be spiteful and die for John
the worse it feels
Be all jumping on a grenade
In high honor
You can get revenge
In the burning hell of the camp
It isn’t the mountain ending, but it is the cycle of revenge that John and Jack follow
like it's a short scene
I feel like the option "Go back for the money" should have been just named "Go back for Micah".
but it's the most painful of them all
Yeah I think they mistitled that
Cause I’d happily burn the money
Just to fuck over the betrayers
And in the process you go back for Micah, you buy John more time.
so you burn the money in that ending?
If you charge down that hill
You attract every Pinkerton and Van der Linde man in five miles
For horses I just use the American Standardbred horse you can buy when you go to the stable with Hosea in chapter 2
@atomic flame very plain
Yep.
no fox trotter?
Nobody is following John now
I'm going to be honest I don't care what horse I use
the standardbred max bonding is actually decent
Which is sad
You don’t get the “you’re my brother” line
But so much of that is already said if you’re ending in high honor in previous missions.
Imagine just being John in chapter 6,you're trying to run away and all you hear is your brother screams: "DUUtcccHHH! MIiCAAhhh"
It’s made very clear that John and Arthur are feeling that brotherly love
They’re all they’ve got, plus Charles and Sadie
“Micah I’ve been waiting to kill you!!!”
Charles is a very interesting character
Rachel is even better, and you can buy an Appaloosa for about 450$ with more stamina.
Bill is just well.. Bill
Too bad Javier was in shock the entire time.
I gave Bill all I had. :(
Hair pomade.
Javier was too torn to act, he never attacks Arthur and John
I gave bill shit for following along
But… he defended my TB
Micah is a twisted man, only insulting the weak
Meanwhile I antagonize anyone who gives me shit even if they can kick my ass
The Virgin Rat vs the Chad Cowpoke
Imagine if Arthur vs Micah wasn't an fist fight, it would have been an duel instead.
Oh Arthur would blow his head off
@cold parcel Javier and Rdr1-ier are two different people. I have a hard time crossing that line into saying they are two characters.
Aren't
sorry
Well that's disappointing. 
Oh.
he is pretty shellshocked tho
He duelled Flaco Hernandez, Billy Midnight, Emmett Granger, and Jim Boy Calloway
Micah is a footnote compared to some of those names and their reaction times

it's cause he expected the gang to be as tough as nails as another fellow greaser and they aren't
they're not really... Traumatized by the horrors of the Mexican American wars
There’s that yeah
I imagine since he made very powerful enemies he made bad friends and worse decisions that led him to become less like his old self
and willing to work to change for a better culture
It would have been fitting if John killed Micah with his cover pose. Would have been badass.
I should’ve used sawn odds
He is, he was raised in it. In a historical perspective his character is driven by Mexican dissent
and it's a sad thing to watch him be so shellshocked, but my reaction is maybe sick comedy to it
you gotta feel for bill too
Or hand him over to the hangman
I used Arthurs Schofield revolver.
All bill ever wanted was to be treated like a friend
Bill could have been just sent to the gay zone.
@hidden moss bill is really tough. He's probably the toughest man on the planet
I give him a lot of props for being able to fight and willing to just rough it through hell.
…all those rape charges against his gang, I hope it wasn’t Bill doing it
Oh boy.
he was friends with a rapist

Could be they didn’t just go after the women with Bill in charge…
I’m sorry
But Bill was never meant for command
I feel like Arthur would have make Dutch come to his senses if he just said the right thing.
what was the reason for bills dishonorable discharge
Being gay
“Conduct unbecoming”
Heavily implied it’s because he likes men, which nothing wrong with it now but in 1890 not so much so

what are you talking about? You know bill is a war veteran with plenty of combat experience. He's evil, too.
he is the only person who doesn't fear guarma
think about that
he doesn't fear blackwater.
…he’s a prize idiot but he’s seen this shit before
he fears only himself
Although Arthur performs just as well without military training
And remember, we could have gotten respect from Bill if we knew an difference between an man and an sheep.
But I guess Arthur has always been a part of Dutch’s little army
Good in combat, which is all that matters
They’re both just soldiers in the end
I do so love Guarma even if it’s short
That turn of the century modern warfare hits hard as fuck
Getting organically dropped into the Caribbean hell’s cape
Running from Wild West problems
I so did not expect that
But it works…
yeah I wish it was free roam
Tahiti would have been better tbh.
but otherwise it's nice
I wish it was free roam too…
I tried cooking meat I harvested
No dice
You can’t cook meat on desert survival island
So restrictive but the vibes… the vibes….
Have you tried cooking faith?
true
Works.
To ignore Dutch killing women
why does dutch hate women
Not saying we shouldn’t have gotten our money back from that old crone… but damn he didn’t even get the gold back from her dead body!
Everytime Dutch enters into blackwater, an woman dies.
Killed an old grandma and left the gold this man was on some serious head trauma
yeah like what is his concept of morality
Cmon Hosea and Lenny’s deaths should’ve been worth 250 a piece instead of NOTHING
Are women like, material objects for his view on "Americanism"
Nah, it's obviously LENNEEEEEEE
Hosea is the questioner
Arthur is the yes man initially
Always backing the play while Hosea doubts
How you mean
You are wrong
It’s YENNEL
I just.. he never truly asks Dutch anything of substance on the manner
ynnEl
I think Hosea always knew how far he could push Dutch
he generally thinks of it more while he's brooding over coffee
not when he's planning with Douche
So as not to come across as doubtful and steer him in the right direction
When they’re planning together who knows
I wish we knew more from those Callander boys.
the one person who actually does confront Dutch is Arthur
But when Hosea has doubts he’s trying to guide them around Dutch’s god complex
and John, in other ways
Uncle did confront Micah one time.
But that’s prolly cause they’ve just been partners so long
At one point yeah you're completely right.
Arthur is more desperate in his questioning. He has to step up and represent his people now
I have ate food and smoked weed while listening to convos
Cause he’s not sure Dutch cares about Jack no more
a lot of them, I do agree
Wêëd
I just think there is a big dissolving element in the gang as we see it
Good shit
like how Hosea broods over coffee
I forgot to give Dutch the pipe when I was Arthur, now I have it as John.
I can't do jack with the pipe.
and how Dutch antagonises any women he's close to but the hag
the whipping bitch
antagonises Uncle
Who is an amazing leader
Uncle has it all figured out tbh
Uncle has an plan.
Everyone gives that old man shit but he knows what’s what
…except for which coaches are Cornwall’s
The one shot kid even fought Cornwall men.
Did pretty good as I recall
Shhhh.
what nobody realizes is that the house is mostly uncle's plan
Shh.
He also got me an early Carcano so it’s all good
Oh yeah
The house is all uncle
And to his credit
I cant bully Micah anymore since he dead, so I now gotta bully Uncle.
He protects it and the Marstons with his life
Don’t bully that man
He dies for Jack and Abigail
And Beechers
Mhm.
The maniac can actually do something when shit gets serious.
Fuck yeah Uncle is my ideal
I literally live by his philosophies anyways I genuinely like the man
Thinking takes a lot of energy
Does it pay well?
no
Coming up with theories as to where Dutch hid the money
Well… if I can find the Blackwater money, yes
But otherwise no
L u m b a g o
I got lumbago, John. It's real serious.
Poor Kieran

I do like him
Kieran was good.
Kieran was a good horse trainer. He was scared of people, and he liked animals
Horses are everything in this game
“He saved my life and I could not save his”
I just wonder what he really did to be in colms gang
One of the best high honor lines
I feel like Kieran should have escaped the Van Der Linde gang tho when he had the chance.
he escapes they look for him as a prisoner. He'll talk, sadly
Should have just moved out the country.
you either take him and explain this to him as you go, or you don't do it at all. And the gang was not there yet
I think he gets wasted when Jack comes back and they find him
I don’t recall seeing him after that
like as a person who understands some idea of good authority
I remember him saying sorry to Abigail.
Of course he’d talk, he ain’t outlaw material. But Colm didn’t care it’s all numbers with him
They trail loose ends like confetti
Kieran almost lost his balls and he still liked Dutch’s Boys better
Dutch and the boy's even remembered his name.
you can't really.. let people out of your life knowing they won't rat.
Cause he didn’t get hassled too hard once he found his niche
you have to be sure, at least. If this crazy bandit life is the way you go down.
Some people will stay solid
Others aren’t built like that
I’m not
I got people who are
@cold parcel he apologies to her but he also flirts with all of the gang, he's pretty lonely.
all of the ladies
Mary is fond of Arthur
Kieran is the equivalent of the average gamer dragged into the mess
he doesn't.. do what he should
but alls well ends well yeah he's jaded lol
Now Sean died because of Bill.
