Micah has Sadie Adler at gunpoint, Dutch has John at gunpoint. Up in the snowy mountains of The Grizzlies, it appears the revenge plot has gone terribly awry. John and Dutch go back and forth over who shot at who first, who betrayed who first, and who the selfish one
Laying flat on his back staring up at Dutch struggling for air Arthur speaks these words, and as numb as Dutch has become, it seems to break through to him. He has nothing to say, and can only walk away. A heart wrenching and emotional scene that saw the end of one of the greatest gaming protagonists of all t
She continues her tirade saying Jack will do something better than all of this. John quickly retorts back Like What? Writing silly stories? John has always had a weird relationship with his son, and the way he reacts to his son’s passion, hobby, and possible future involving reading and writing is terrible. It sums up just how tumultuous their relationship is, and how far they still have to
A failed bank robbery, a ship gone astray, an island no one wants to be on. These were the circumstances that led to this quote. While in Guarma, Dutch and Arthur are being led by a woman to a pathway. She demands more gold to go further when Dutch snaps and proceeds to kill her by strangulation in cold blood right in front of Art
John fed up with Dutch’s talk, demands What Plan, what Goddamn plan Dutch? It appears John has had enough of Dutch’s beating around the bush. In a mocking attempt to answer his own question John even starts naming locations to run too “Tahiti? Timbuktu?” Javier retorts “Enough what happened to loyalty?” To which John responds “Yeah, What d
The place is a dump when John arrives yet he fixes it up and builds his own home with Charles and Uncle in hopes that one day Abigail and Jack will return. In a letter to Abigail, John writes this line, and it fully represents how far John is willing to go to make things ri
Well, maybe not STUPID, but certainly foolish and empty-headed. For example, John gets captured by Leviticus Cornwall, forcing Arthur to once again save his butt from danger. To make matters worse, the subsequent shootout forces the entire gang out of Valentine. But John’s biggest blunder was selling the prized Braithwaite horses for a meager $700 when he could have gotten $5,000. Arthur turns to John with disappointment in his eyes and says the words we’ve all been feeling – “You’re a fool, Marst
The time Arthur spends in Guarma is a narrative low point. Its only clear purpose is to show how Dutch has cracked, but that could have been done in any setting. Guarma is filler in a section of the game that should have been dedicated to advancing the story, and fast. If nothing else, it doesn’t last particularly l
Arthur is quite the family man. Not long after having Jack, Open World games Guide John left the van der Linde in a moment of selfishness and self-reflection. Not much is known about his time away from the family, but one thing is for sure – Arthur was not happy about it. It’s pretty clear that Arthur was quite hurt by John’s selfish action, as he brings it up about five thousand times in the early part of the game. The family rides and dies together, and John completely abandoned that ideol
Arthur has been loyal for as long as he’s been alive to the Van Der Linde gang. When John Marston left the gang, Arthur took it personally. He had every reason too and expressed his feelings as well. Arthur helps Abigail on numerous occasions when it comes to taking care of Jack, Abigail and John’s
Following the incredibly intense bank heist where major characters die and the status quo is shattered right in front of the player’s eyes, _ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ transitions into its next, most logical, narrative beat: A shipwreck in a game about cowboys and the end of the American Wild W
Unfortunately, it actually contradicts rather important information from the first game where John claimed he hadn’t seen Dutch since he left the game. Clearly, this mission takes place long after that fact. Either way, it’s an interesting narrative beat even if it doesn’t make sense. Plus, it directly ties itself into the first game once the credits are thro
When collecting debt money owed from Mr. Downes, it ultimately leads to the father’s untimely passing. This is done either by Arthur repeatedly beating the man and killing him on the spot or him succumbing to his injuries later. Arthur then comes back to the family and has quite an interesting conversation with Mrs. Dow
Years after the end of the Van Der Linde gang and Arthur’s passing, John, his wife Abigail, and son Jack, are entering Strawberry. John wonders what’s for them there in Strawberry and Abigail states they like honest hard-working men there to which John replies with this classic qu
