    Dutch was a man who had dreams about life but no visions in life. John was a man who had visions about life but no dreams in life. RDR2: Dutch is organized and clean while John is disorganized and dirty. RDR1: Dutch was disorganized and dirty while John is organized and clean. Dutch’s dream of being against civilization fell apart, while John’s vision of protecting his family built him up.

    I personally like to see a game where we play as Mac calendar, having survived the Blackwater massacre and setting up a new life out west, where he uses his skills to protect a town under threat. I’d set it around 1901, maybe featuring a cameo from Karen Jones and we could potentially save her from a life of alcoholic prostitution as part of Mac’s redemption

    I think John's feelings about Jack were always there. It's just he couldn't bring himself to face what he felt. The biggest clue is that being true in my opinion is, when he gets angry let Arthur for taking Jack fishing something that a father would do, and it served his reminder of the piss poor father John knew he was at that point. With Arthur doing that and Abigail turning to Arthur like she did, John began to feel that he was being replaced and so jealousy and guilt arose in him.

    Exactly you hit it right on the head. John KNOWS Jack is his but he doesn’t want to accept responsibility bc of how being a father can clash with his current life on the run as an outlaw. Deep down he does care, otherwise he wouldn’t have returned from his year long hiatus. He wouldn’t also get mad at Arthur for taking Jack on a fishing trip and Arthur even calls out John for getting mad “If you say the boy ain’t yours what’s the difference?” and John deflects the question with another one “Why are you so interested in my life?”

But Arthur is more jealous of John and over all angry with how good he seems to have it being Dutchs and Abigail’s favorite and John not being appreciative at all about it. As Dutch grows more resentful of John, Arthur starts to let go of his grudge and basically forgives John for everything especially abandoning the gang, and I’m not saying that Dutch not liking John is the cause of Arthur’s actions but it’s interesting how Dutch and Arthur inverse each other in development and even in their relationships with other people

    Red Dead Redemption 1 is in my opinion a perfect game. One of the only reasons I rate it slightly above Red Dead Redemption 2 is because of how it presents the unstoppable cruelty and indifference of time. In the first game you spend hours and hours catching Bill, Javier and Dutch, and then the government betrays you and murders you. The saddest tragedy about the ending is how Jack Marston ends up just like his father and Arthur. The game shows the march of "civilization", infrastructure, law and order and industrialization into the Old West. It's hard to watch the gangs, bandits, gunslingers, snake-oil salesmen and heroic sheriffs be swept away by the soul-crushing might of civilization. There is something charming about the chaos and mischief of the Old West as displayed in the game, and we watch history fade before our eyes.

    That’s bc we’re seeing the aftermath of a huge event for the gang, Dutch is indifferent to John bc John is being more open about his doubts so Dutch is kind of ignoring him to filter out any negative feedback. But prior to Blackwater he’s Dutchs favorite, especially after he abandoned the gang and was welcome back with open arms and is given his own tent while everyone else sleeps in a shared space (except Arthur but he’s older than the other gunslingers and was running in the gang longer than any of them)

    In the prologue before Dutch starts letting his mask slip he trust John enough to send him into the mountains before Arthur despite Arthur protesting … i believe there was a nugget of that favoritism there… but the whole game after that is about Dutch letting his mask slip slowly and unraveling into a monster and abandoning/betraying everyone he definitely gives up on and abandons John earlier so I can see why you think that though

    I think a good video topic for the future is “could Cleet have been redeemed?” His situation is pretty similar to Kieran or even Arthur & John. A dude who fell in with a bad crowd and was in way over his head once he realized how truly bad things were, and he ends up paying dearly for it in the end after he tries to leave. People don’t tend to see him that way due to being an associate of Micah, but I think his situation is more similar to ours than many of us like to admit. It was honestly kinda fucked up when Sadie executed him even if we choose to spare him. I think Micah was to him as Dutch was to the player characters.

Everything you said would be spot on if the writers had the balls to kill her off at the end, yet they didn’t which unless they’re planning on continuing her story seems like a bad ending for me, you say she’s doomed to suffer playing a fools game yet she seems to be living her best life, the only time she shows any sadness or emptiness is immediately following her revenge all those years ago. And the fact the game gives you the option not to help her get revenge would be great and all if it didn’t punish you for it by giving low honor, which goes back to what I said how Arthur somewhat betrays his code by helping her, even tho she still helps Arthur regardless of whether he helps her. It seems weird that Arthur always preaches how revenge is a fools game yet when it’s Sadie than it’s suddenly a high honor thing to get revenge, while it’s somehow low honor to stand by Arthur’s code

Rockstar can really get creative with his story by making RDR3 about him and his upbringing. I personally think the Arthur - John Saga ended the perfect way and there’s no need to carry on with these characters anymore.

I wanted to mention that when you were talking about Arthur being willing to go above and beyond to protect other gang members, SPOILER FOR ANYONE WHO DOES NOT WANT ANYTHING RUINED . . . . there is a brief conversation he has with Tilly at Camp where she tells him she is nervous about heading South as opposed to the original plan and Arthur sort of dismisses it and Tilly says "Come on Arthur, you're not as shallow or dense as all that" she then tells him how she had family that were slaves. Arthur says he will protect her but Tilly responds still uneasy, Arthur then responds a bit more softly yet more authoritatively (if that makes sense) that he would protect her. Oh and as for ever having a day where when I'm in a bad mood and I take it out on the first person that talks to me....have you been reading my Twitter? LOL Sorry for the long response

    Stay with me here if you want: Chapter one of the game on re-plays is better each time. You start to realize, they could’ve just went west. Dutch fucks up, Dutch gets mad, Dutch shoots someone in cold blood, they run from the law, our friends end up dead, Dutch gets scared, Dutch gets mad, Dutch fucks up, they run from the law, more of our friends die, Dutch gets even more scared and mad, and you realize all our friends are dead because Dutch was scared and mad. Dutch’s wrath is legendary, and it’s all because he’s free from consequences. Imagine if it wasn’t illegal to act upon your most primal emotions. Do we not kill cuz we’re “civilized?” Because we’re moral? Or do we not kill because of the consequences? Most of us are the former, less of us are the latter, and even less than that are like Dutch. But they are out there. 5/5-ass game right here.

As someone who doesn't play much, I was pretty overwhelmed with just the BH ambushes. As i've played through 2 times now, I understand where you're coming from, but I think you feel the way you do because of how much time you put in the game. Rockstar does an amazing job of making a playable game while adding things for lifestyle gamers to seek after. I wish I could be like I was in my 20's, but yeah. I'm thankful Rstar thinks of everyone. RDR1 & RDR2 are my favorite games ever. I would hate to struggle through 3 because of not being able to put in hours every week.

    He obviously wouldn’t have, bc Arthur would still be long dead from TB or Dutch getting him killed if he stuck around longer. But let’s pretend Arthur didn’t have TB and the gang still broke up the way it did, Arthur would probably just move on with his life and live under the radar. The reason Bill and Dutch were targeted was bc they were still running around the country with large gangs at their back and causing chaos, and the reason John was chosen by Ross is bc Ross already knew where he was hiding bc he killed Micah. Arthur wouldn’t have been a target bc he wouldn’t still be running around in a gang or doing any of that he’d be living peacefully like the other gang members who weren’t targeted
