I think his appearance in the mirror is a lot more revealing than that I think it indicates that he’s a kind of a representative or a personification of the game’s morality system, and he shows up in the mirror because he’s always watching you and the choices you make-your actions, after all, are a reflection of your true self that betrays who you really are in a way that can’t be hidden away no matter how many lies you may want to tell yourself This also explains why so much of what appears in his shack changes and evolves in response to the player making these particular kinds of moral choices, as well as why the man thinks of himself as an accountant-his overriding responsibility is to keep track and maintain a running tally of these choices as you make them, and maybe even to ensure that the appropriate consequences for each choice are carried out no matter what

Ethan Rhodes Can you be a little more specific about where you’re picking up a religious and moral connotation, because I don’t see that at all in anything about the strange man, and I didn’t mean to indicate that I did I never said that he cares about pushing you toward specific good or bad choices or passing judgment, only that he makes you aware of these situations, keeps track of the results, and maybe carries out consequences dispassionately-like an accountant moving numbers around from column to column based on how you handle each “transaction”

@ronjohnrosina

4 жыл бұрын

Ethan Rhodes No I definitely agree with you in that I don’t believe that he cares about “punishing” anyone for their choices like in Christianity where God sends bad people to Hell It’s more like, you know, “You do this, then something happens, and I keep track of it simply because that’s my job” It’s almost kind of meta because it reflects the way the devs approach the morality system in the game, since each event has a choice for you to make and something that happens as a result, but it never pronounces judgement by outright saying that your choices make you a good person or an evil person-like the Strange Man, all the morality system does is make you aware that these critical decisions and turning points exist, and then reflect your own choices back to you so that you can interpret for yourself what kind of person you are I think the deal with the shopkeeper illustrates this whole thing rather well, as he reaches out to the Strange Man, who in turn informs him that he can choose between personal happiness or two generations-because those are the only two choices that the developers included in the game-and the Strange Man then proceeds to carry out the consequences of that choice and make him as deeply unhappy as possible without regard to the suffering of the rest of the town because all he’s been programmed to do is to handle these kinds of choices and see to it that the world changes appropriately to reflect those choices But again, yeah I agree with you in that I don’t see any indication that the Strange Man feels particularly good or bad about any of this-all he seems to be concerned with is keeping a running tally of which choices are made and that whatever is supposed to happen as a result, for better or worse, actually occurs as it inevitably must as each decision is made and the results of that decision unfold

I remember all the speculation about the Strange Man back when RDR1 came out. The consensus was that he was a manifestation of the Devil, though with RDR2 it is far easier to pin down that he is Death.

Rockstar's writers and artists are so incredibly skilled. The level of detail, and ability to create the story backwards is almost unbelievable. "Masterpiece" doesn't even do this franchise justice. All I can say is thank you. It's a shame about what is happening with Rockstar now though.

Which also explains the whole cholera thing. Also, another thing: Cholera is in fact NOT the last epidemic to hit Armadillo. Because in Undead Nightmare, everyone turns into a zombie, remember? Although it was caused by that green mask, it doesn't necessarily mean the strange man had nothing to do with it. And in Undead Nightmare, the four horsemen are referenced as well. I might be interpreting to much here. But if you ask me, all of this is just a reference to the Bible.

@@kden2925 Nah Micah was a rat after Pinkerton picked him up after Guarma, I think the reason why the heist failed because In Arthur’s journal it said Dutch wanted to buy some land in Blackwater but got spotted by a lawman so that lawman reported it to their boss, and then the Pinkertons set the ferry trap and ambushed the gang forcing them to ditch the money and run. And yes I know about the newspaper piece about Dutch’s bounty Micah has in his camp, probably thought about turning Dutch in but he realized he can make more than that doing heists.

I’ve always thought John, Abigail and Uncle would have went on living had John not fired at the strange man. That John meeting him was his chance at redemption and he blew it by shooting at him so he and his family paid for it. But I never made the three shots correlation until now, makes me think that even more now. He’s some kind of entity, God, demon, grim reaper, not of this world or flesh and blood.

I love that these videos exist as I don’t have much time to get to play. It’s so easy to miss a lot in these games too.

Its incredible how much details you can miss even when you have been playing rdr since the first game. Great video.

"The water is black with venom" talks about Tuberculosis, Micah always calls Arthur, black Lungs, with tuberculosis, you have water in the lungs, and the venom is the Tuberculosis itself It means too, that the calm of the gang (the water) is infected by the venom (Micah Bell the traitor) since the "BLACKWATER" incident, that was Micah's idea by the way

The quality editin of ur work is fantastic. U broke the Strange Man down with expertise. I've always felt he was like theGrim Reaper/Death because he maintained a more neutral, black and white position unlike the evil Devil or the good God.

I'd also add that Strange Man's behavior is cold, no emotions, no reactions to death threats (even though he can't die), he's just as cold as death is.

That’s quite a good thought to be honest, maybe the reason John didn’t die then and was saved was because the strange man wasn’t satisfied with John yet, kinda like how the pinkertons only killed John only after he had satisfied their needs with killing the rest of the gang.

I mean most of the fanbase agree or would agree that Strange Man is god/death and gave him a chance meaning John saw him briefly before being “resurrected” by him and also yes both of those pictures/paintings of Strange Man you could find in free roam is optional and if it was actually the reason john remembers the face then there would be a special interaction with it.. otherwise its an easter egg...

I think that u understood one of his phrases in a different way. Hear me out: "I Gave Everything for art, and I learned too much and nothing at all". The thing is, here's the only comma in any of his phrases. So I think, ART stands for ARTHUR. If u read it like this, it becomes a short story of John Marston's life in RDR 1. He gave everything for revenge, and that's how he died. So there are two short stories of Main characters in the RDR universe. From snow to cave (Arthur's), I gave everything for Arthur, I learned too much and nothing at all ( John)
