It’s hard to argue with the fact that Arthur experiences tremendous character growth throughout Red Dead Redemption 2 . His growth was about redeeming his character and showing the world how good of a man he truly was. For Sadie, as mentioned before, she began as a frail and defenseless widow and transformed into a formidable outlaw. Like Arthur, she was morally aligned and eventually turned into a bounty hunter. She’s not perfect and stuck to many of her spiteful tendencies, but it’s as though she’s lived two separate li
Conversely, as Arthur’s illness got worse and worse, he began to question everything he previously believed in, including how he had treated John over the years. John Marston had once abandoned him and the gang, an action which Arthur previously thought was an unforgivable sin, but as his own deteriorating health started to mirror Dutch’s rapidly sliding mental condition he began to wonder if John may have had the right idea all along. One of the last actions Arthur takes before succumbing to death is one which ensures that John Marston, his wife Abigail, and their son Jack all get away safely, and this act of kindness clearly left an impression on John, just as John’s initial abandonment left an impression on Art
The abolition of slavery took a toll on both the Braithwaite and Gray businesses, and the families both lost a lot of money (and political power) in the process. However, they still remained powerful in other areas – Mafia The Old Country Grays, for instance, controlled the local sheriff’s office in Rhodes in addition to various other businesses. Even though the families were vocally against each other, it didn’t stop two of their younger members from falling in l
Arthur and the Van der Linde gang end up having several other interactions with the two families over the course of the game. Hosea and Arthur attempt to sell moonshine to the Braithwaites that they recovered from the Lemoyne Raiders; the Braithwaites agreed only on the condition that Arthur and his pals give it out for free at the Rhodes saloon. Since the saloon is owned by the Gray family, it was a not-so-discreet way to detract from their business. The Braithwaites later ask the Van der Lindes to burn down the Gray’s tobacco fields, only for the gang to also agree to steal the Braithwaites’ horses in return for payment from the Grays. At the time, neither family seemed to realize the Van der Lindes are playing both si
It shouldn’t be hard to understand that a woman whose entire life was taken from her in the blink of a winter night, now resents the world and everyone in it. If it wasn’t for Arthur, Sadie might have had a much darker character traject
Rockstar isn’t strangers to introducing the supernatural into their series . Especially games that have serious tones about murder and drugs, they happen to sneak in small and strange details into their open worlds. Players will need to go out of their way to discover these. This makes them more satisfying to come across when it happens. It’s likely more Rockstar titles will continue to include more supernatural themes in their big-budget tit
Often times the condition of Arthur was a reflection of the type of gamer the person controlling him was. This will likely return in GTA VI and might even be implemented in the next-gen version of GTA Onli
Those who grow tired of killing and robbing every NPC that they encounter may yearn for a new challenge to keep the game feeling fresh. Going out hunting for both small and large game is a great way to have fun, while still getting to shoot Arthur’s vast assortment of guns. Those who are unused to hunting in RDR2 may not realize that it is a lot more complicated than just pointing at animals and shooting. This guide is here to explain some of the hunting mechanics and give players tips for bagging their very first grizzly or alliga
John’s journal, on the other hand, isn’t quite as fanciful, despite him being a much more verbose character in person. As the main protagonist of Red Dead Redemption and the avatar which players take control of after Arthur Morgan’s death in Red Dead Redemption 2, John isn’t afraid to let people know he isn’t keen on keeping thoughts and feelings internal when they need to be expressed, and he isn’t the type of person to go in for such highfalutin concepts as art and education. Although he still sketches each new animal that he comes across, John’s drawings are simple, almost child-like, and when he writes he adds lines underneath his words so that he doesn’t end up scribbling all over the p
John’s crude, rudimentary drawings aren’t just those of an uneducated criminal, but instead come across as the emulation of a younger sibling, like a person desperate to show that they can also provide a service despite a lack of experience or training. John’s acceptance of his own faults and limitations is a trait his character has embodied since the beginning of Red Dead Redemption , and while his frank and blunt nature often leads to tense situations and comedic moments it’s the fleshing out of his character in Red Dead Redemption 2 which truly completes Rockstar Games’ tragic Wild West tale, one which ends with John’s death and his son Jack Marston following in his footsteps despite all efforts to the contr
