    I think Abigail is a misunderstood character. She just wants to look out for John and Jack and for John to stop living like an outlaw and settle down and become a good honest man. She may be a bit whiny or angry but everything she says and does it out of love for John and Jack.

      And that’s the problem,had John been complaining as much as Abigail did about protecting family, people would have a problem,but Abigail being a whore and a woman who can’t protect herself unless she has help from the people she treats like shit apparently makes her some misunderstood woman who is supposed to get everything she wants in life for free whereas John had no choice but to live his life as an outlaw and only chose to work shoveling shit for her

And its Uncle that says in Chapter 2 of RDR2 when he and Arthur go to town with the girls, that he is going to "Put the women to work" and Karen replies "With pleasure "..

    I always knew it was unlikely she slept with everyone, since in RDR2 you can clearly see no woman in the camp sleeps with multiple members at the same time. Like, even Karen, drunk all the time, only flirted with Sean from all i could see. So i mean, the women in the camp joined the gang for working and protection, never for just sleeping around.

    Considering that "cat houses" were a legal trade at the time, I don't imagine that Abigail would have continued to prostitute after joining the gang. It wouldn't make good business since for the proprietor of an establishment to hire on new talent who had come into town with a gang of outlaws who'd likely bring unwanted attention to their place of business.
    Instead, I suspect that she (like Karen, Mary Beth, and Tilly) would go into town and grift unsuspecting drunks for leads or whatever was in their marks' pockets. But, (as you stated) having Jack changed her both physically and mentally.

    I think in RDR 2 is implied that she used to be a thief, remember that she's the one to discover the location of Dutch's stash, and give Arthur the key to open it, they even have dialogue along those lines. To explain the Susan scene I think fits well, Abigail refuses to going back to stealing the same way she wants John to end his outlaw life, cause she don't want to get caught or killed, again because of Jack, the gang needs money, that's probably why Grimshaw was asking her to return to her "old" habits, never is said to sell herself, which probably weren't as profitable as stealing.

Bonnie is shown as beautiful and an extraordinary woman. (Which is why I think they they redesigned Abigail to make her more beautiful in RDR2)
    That being said. Like others have said, she’s looking to protect her son. There’s no reason to dislike her. I love that Arthur even says to himself that he should have probably married her cause she’s a good woman.

      The epilogue really portrayed her very unlikeable though, the reason why John managed to have his own farm is because he knew how to use a gun and that earned him friends and connections for doing noble acts like helping Pronghorn Ranch when needed.
      But i didn't see Abigail complain about it, she took it and she was fine with it even though she was giving him such a hard time for not being able to change and even left him too for a time.
      Also her mother instincts became a priority pretty much after Jack was taken by Bronte, that's when she realized what really means to be a mother and how much Jack actually meant for her, that's when she started to put Jack needs before her own.
      There is a conversation at campfire in chapter 2 where she says how awful it is to be a mother and how she wanted to have a different life and all that, she even says herself she wasn't much of a mother and didn't knew what that means until that point in the story.

      If I'm remembering correctly, Abigail was orphaned at a very young age and she grew up in brothels and bars.
      Being raised in an environment like that would not only make a kid percieve sexual acts as normal, but she was allowed a way to make money at such a young age and no adults had the morals to prevent her. Of course she'd work at the brothels as soon as they deemed her sexually mature enough.
      That's why I think it's sad and hypocritical how players will consider characters like John and Arthur victims of circumstance because they were orphaned young, but Abigail, who also had no choice in how she was raised, is treated like filth.

    When Bill is caught he says “we all f*cked Abigail!!” He only says this when he’s pinned down and about to die or get captured so it’s obviously just to get a jab at John before he dies.
    You don’t have to be too bright to understand that John is sensitive about Abigail previously being a prostitute, was in his actions, mannerisms and he’d said it directly. Even if Bill didn’t realize it at the time he probably pieced it together from memory or someone just told him. Back before RDR2 Bill wasn’t seen as the idiot he is in RDR1 (correct me if I’m wrong)
    Having known John for almost his entire life Dutch knows his insecurities like the back of his hand so he elaborates on his ‘spin’ of reality in camp in front of the government workers to try and embarrass John and probably make him do something rash, or just show he’s the one with the power. Dutch is nothing if not manipulative. Only John’s matured so he just grits his teeth and bares it, probably realizing what Dutch is trying to do. (Like a child gray-rocking an irate manipulative parent.)
    It is important to discern the truth from the context of the situation it was delivered in.

    I feel like this is weird, what is so wrong with Abigail being a former sex worker who left sex work to be a mother? I think it speaks to both John and Abigail's characters that they put all of the pointless things behind and just accept that they loved eachother.

      Some people like to put women on a higher moral ground than men and if her past revolves sex work, she is past "redemption"

    Abigail was what everyone thinks she was, there is enough factual clues to the truth about her. Questions are Why did John actually leave for that year and Why is he not certain about Jack. Since an older Jack favors Dutch more than John, we are left to speculate about what really should have been written. After another fight, Dutch comforted Abigail and with her own needs to feel loved adding in the lack of respect for anyone Dutch took advantage of the situation. John couldn't put the timeline together in his own mind, so he left to sort out his feelings. Upon his return against gang code Dutch took him back into the gang. Arthur was confused by this, Hosea and Dutch throughout the game try to convince John of his fatherhood of Jack. Through the disloyalty and treachery of Dutch, Abigail loved John and he her and Arthur loved them both and together they found their way to Redemption.

    I never understood why people compare Abigail to characters like Sadie or Bonnie
    Abigail is a completely different character with different goals, a different personality and a different life and for some reason people think that Abigail should just get a gun and become "badass" when she has a son to raise and not the smartest husband to take care of.

    "These comments were clearly intended to provoke an antagonize, not to provide factual information."
    Those two motivations are not mutually exclusive.
    Jack could've been any one of the gang's kid. Not Javier, as you've pointed out, which follows, because the only resemblance between adult Jack and Javier is tje mustache.
    But adult Jack looks exactly like Dutch, so that kind of narrows it down a lot.

  • @luisdj86
    @luisdj86 2 місяці тому +1

    Ok let's understand Abgail situation so we can place her in the right place she was.
    She was a prostitute before joining the gang. We don't know for how it took from the moment she met the gang and became a member. It is possible that some of the gang members, including John laid with her while she was a prostitute, and that he got her pregnant.
    When she joined the gang, of course she stops being a prostitute. Still, John is not sure whether he was the father or not of the Kid. That changes over the course of the story, but thats another topic.
    When you see Grimshaw nudging her to go back to work, here is what you need to understand what the camp girls are. They are thieves. Conn artists. They do scam other men to steal their money. You can see that happening in the chapter 2 mission Polite Society, Valentine Style. You see Karen in the Motel with a man, already taking her clothes off.
    What Abgail refuses to do is go back to that life. Since she became a mother, she doesn't want to do that anymore. That is what she refuses to do that Grimshaw was demanding her to, because Grimshaw oversees the camp and ensure that everyone is "contributing", if someone doesn't she snitches them to Dutch.
