The fact that the yellow spot on the map was actually Micah running to beaver hollow, he wasn’t being attacked by the Pinkertons because he told them everything
Yoo I didn’t even know that, I thought the yellow was just the marker
Nah it's cause the game has to show he's in 2 places at once somehow. The gang didn't need a rat with the mess they'd made the entire game
He said “be safe” like it was another day 💀
“Okay, well I’ll catch you later, then.”
He thought arthur would return eventually
" I didn't come back for the god damn money Micah. I came back to kill you."
It would’ve put the player in a better predicament : if instead of the “Go back to get the money” option - it was “Go back and *kill Micah* “ it would’ve made it more of a difficult choice.. and hammered home the theme of “nothing good comes from revenge”
@@firstlast9846 Save John or Kill Micah. Redemption or Revenge.
@@DiscoManSam EXACTLY.
@@DiscoManSam Yes
imagine if Arthur didn't have TB he would be very young to kill Micah and Dutch💀
Why did John think he would die if he went for the money? He was almost just as good as Arthur and them as a duo could massacre every Pinkerton agent in existence
True. I guess it was for plot reasons.
Well logically, if John was focused on his family, I guess he figured it wasn't worth the risk, as he said, they're more important than any money that Dutch may have
John at that time isnt anywhere near Arthur tho + hes extremely tired and overall beaten from the previous train fight and the fact he had to walk to camp on foot that's several kilometers at least he just wants to get out of there and go back to his family
@@Patatras_5325then there is the fact that his horse got killed so he probs had to go on foot from where they split off to Copper Head Landing which if you look on the map, is a very far walk
@@christophermolina8792 I mean from there to copper head landing he could've stole a horse or smt or heck even have someone bring him there at gunpoint but the fact still remains he was ultra tired at that moment and literally out of breath when talking to Arthur
This ending should be titled "avenge your horse"
True...
story wise helping john makes more sense but this ending definitely seems more canon in terms of how and where it happens.
1. it’s way more epic and “final boss” like than that grim fight on the cliff
2. u see john leave on a little hill, in the “help john” ending he magically disappears on a mountain. same with micah and dutch, they both came out of nowhere and leave out to nowhere. ending in the camp makes way more sense cuz that’s where dutch and micah would go.
3. dying in that hill is cool but dying in the camp makes way more sense. also when charles eventually finds arthur he’d find him in the camp and not in some random spot that god knows how he find it.
4. in that ending arthur leaves micah withot one eye which shows two things: an impact on having fought with him, cuz u at least took an eye. and two when u see him in the epilogue it just looks more special with the scar than if he was just his regular self. it’s just cool to see him again and say “oh look he has that scar from when he fought with arthur”
You’re very right here.
Well charles know how to track, u havent played enough.
@@Agus_martin3z i surely played more than u. and him being able to “track” it’s just a poor explanation for how he found arthur in the middle of a mountain and how he got him down. finding him in the camp makes way more sense
@@matutete If u say so King, how the track is a "poor explation" In some missions u track whit Charles, If Charles tracked a german guy who was mounting in 1 horse, of course he could easily Track The Ride Of Arthur and John Its not that hard. Plus the whole gang And Pinkertons Was riding to K!ll Arthur and John They made a lot of Tracks
@@Agus_martin3z he tracked a large group of guys in regular pathways. he didn’t track a full on chase and then climbed a mountain following nothing to find them. btw ur point is still cherry-picking a small detail of all the things i said. it is way more logical for charles to find arthur at the camp than track him to a cliff on a random mountain
This is the best ending. I only wanted to kill Micah and prove Dutch that he was the rat, but it ended up being the death of Arthur. When epilogue started I couldn’t believe Arthur had died.
Charles the mvp what a guy to help John build the home from scratch
Can’t forget uncle. It’s really hard to sleep.
@@Exxioz He has lumbago
@@theiaraine It’s very serious.
They worked so hard to build a little house togetherRrR
11:40 the one time that micah's actor actually yelled
4:23 goosebumps every time
I need the heimlich throw that to the side yuh
Idc what anyone says; THIS is the better ending. A few tweaks in the writing would’ve helped make people accept this as the more canon ending. Arthur clearly had no use for the money and he knew that. A simple “you, Jack and Abigail could use that money, I’m gonna try and get it for you” would’ve went a long way. Or “I’m gonna draw them all back to camp so you can get out of here” would’ve worked too.
5:08 lmao perfect cut in both meanings
6:35 didn’t know you could actually find Micah, always thought that it was an audio cue after Arthur taunts Micah
That’s Micah?
He is dying of TB, kills dozens of Pinkertons too get back too camp. Gets stabbed in the side with his own knife, proceeds too pull it out and use it too slice up Micah
Arthur goes out like an absolute beast in this ending. The symbolism of the camp burning and Arthur at the center showing that the entire gang and what it stood for was dead and gone
It’s cool how Arthur’s spirit animal changes depending on you honor like low honor he’s a wolf high honor he seems to be an elk.
Now I’m just saying it’s his spirit animal because he sees visions of it throughout the game like after he finds out he has TB for example.
I liked how later in the game a lot of the dialogue changed depending on your honor level.
the low honor animal is a black coyote and the high honor is a buck btw
Tbh because I only ever played high honour I never knew it changed until I saw someone talking about it a few weeks ago
@@maxvolume72 I figured it out on my first playthrough. I was mostly dishonorable but after chapter 6 I started being honorable. Didn’t even know about the different endings, but then I finally got over neutral honor and saw the elk for the first time. I ended that first playthrough about 3/4 to max honor and got the best ending. On my second playthrough I was high honor the entire time so I noticed a lot of the dialogue changes.
The walk back, the music drops. Oooooh that still hits 🤘.
This is my canon ending (if there is one). Going back to the camp and fighting Micah, leaving a big scar that actually carries into the epilogue. The dialogue is better imo.
I prefer this ending over high honor going with John. It’s far more satisfying.
Plus Arthur dying in the flames of the camp he tried to carry...
Going for this ending this time, helped John the two previous times, but leaving Micah with that scar is worth doing this ending.
I like both endings helping John and return for the money with high honor and why I like return for the money with high honor more cause Micah and Arthur gets both bloody wounded Artur in the side of his back and Micah in his eye
I agree. High honor with John feels more like the canon ending but going back for the money is more satisfying since you get to stab his eye.
@@Exxiozdefinitely feels that way, if you dont choose the game chooses for you to go with john
Micah got stabbed too many times xd
Arthur got his revenge.
Fun fact, if you parry/stab Micah enough times during this scene, he will eventually die and you’ll fail the mission
Not enough actually
@@Sharkbayt1025you won’t fail but the game will be broken
@@Exxiozwhat If Arthur hadn't had TB, he would have gone on a much more brutal rampage than this, so Arthur could have killed Micah and Dutch.
when you have level 4 horse bonding and you comfort your horse when it dies, just makes it way sadder edit: 65 likes ty guys
Losing your horse and Arthur right after one another made me feel things.
ikr@@Exxioz
I did it with Buell, who was only at level 2 bonding at the time, and still got the scene of him comforting the horse. I guess pre-named horses are extra special
@@VeraVemaVena ye probably so i think i once had ham, a bonding 3 horse
I just imagine the fear Micah would or should have felt seeing everyone who stood within the path of Arthur and himself drop dead relentlessly.
Stupidest part about this is they fled through the cave in the beginning they couldve just grabbed the money on the way out seems a lot easier than going back through and fighting all the pinkertons
It’d probably be hard to climb that ladder while holding the bag of money, and their horses got shot. Trying to take the money with them would’ve just slowed them down. Plus the fact that they probably didn’t think about money when they were running for their lives. The pinkertons probably would have killed them if they stopped to get the money.
@@Exxioz does that make more sense than Arthur going back for the money with no horse tho?
@@arky1790 no, but he was going to die anyways. It was less about the money. This ending was more-so about revenge.
@@Exxioz ah yes, thats why it's called "go back for the money" and not "get revenge" ending
@@arky1790 the name doesn’t mean anything. They weren’t gonna call it “sacrifice yourself” or “get revenge”. That’s like saying going back with John isn’t about sacrifice and redemption because it’s not in the name.
I never realized this until now...but it's a funny thematic mechanism that if you choose the true "high honor" ending, you're literally going higher as Arthur stays up on the mountain/hill. Conversely...if you choose the true "low honor" ending, you're literally going lower down into the valley. I know there are way more parallels than this, but I never even considered that until now...love this game.
Haha, that's neat. I just realized that, it makes a lot of sense. Great game.
Arthur should've saw that attack at 9:43 coming. He literally followed Micah to Beaver Hollow, why would he expect him not do be there.
this ending is basically a suicide run to begin with there's not much thought involved
He knew he wasnt going to live so he thought "might a well let it happen"
F's in the chat for the horse
Thank you for your condolences.
no one cares about the horse
@@Cornstarchrrno one cares about u 💀
@thepotato8284 If you went through the game and didn’t care about your horse : you played the game wrong 🤷🏾♂️
i didnt care about my horse, its a line of code, you damn horse lover@@firstlast9846
Dude I loved your gameplay during the forest run, your every kill had style and it was awesome
Glad to see you enjoyed!
“Oh you got me pretty good Black Lung!”
“Ha…You shot me pretty good”
You had the best Micah fight i've seen on youtube
I appreciate your support. Thanks for watching.
How dare you Rockstar, it shouldn’t be dishonorable. This is called karma, for what Dutch and Micah gets for betraying Arthur and the rest of the gang themselves.
I like Arthur and John, but Dutch really isn't in the wrong here. I'd probably go insane to if I had 25 people in my ear 24/7 complaining about every single thing I do. All he was trying to do was get the gang to Tahiti, and he sacrificed a little morality to do so. Arthur kept on getting in the way of it. Bill, Micah, and Javier were the only ones who stood by Dutch's decision. Arthur and John didn't really give Dutch any reason to side with them. And honestly, when you think about it from Dutch's perspective, John being a rat makes a lot more sense than Micah being a rat. Everyone is biased towards Arthur and John because they are the most likable. But I agree that the ending shouldn't be dishonorable, because John is almost just as good as Arthur and can kill the Pinkertons without him easily. And Arthur isn't getting the money for him, he knows hes dead. Hes getting it for Johns family and all the other women in camp. He spent 22 years as the gangs top earner, him alone probably made 75% of that money.
dutch had no plan on going to tahiti, it was just his way of stringing his gang that was obviously falling apart along. he was also killing people in cold blood for no reason, which was completely unrelated to tahiti or money in any way. i think that the reason dutch went insane is that hosea was no longer alive to support him, and micah manipulated dutch by saying everything that he wanted to hear, therefore becoming Dutch's new favourite. and the reason going back for the money is the low honor ending is because it's revenge which arthur was always against, and it defeats the point of arthur's redemption@@fortmercer
@@werlux5613He did plan on going to Tahiti. They were literally packing their bags to go there in the final mission before Arthur came back and ruined everything. He killed the woman because she was a loose end, thats the only person he killed in cold blood. He didn't want revenge, he wanted Johns family to have money when he dies. Even in death, Arthur just wanted to help Dutch see that Micah betrayed him. Thats not revenge
I agree. I don’t think he was ever really planning on going to Tahiti.
@@fortmercer you could see that going back for the money was revenge as if you choose the ending, he will say dutch and micah's name as he walks away from dutch, clearly showing that it was part of the reason he went back. she wasnt the only person dutch killed in cold blood, theres various, like angelo bronte, that woman at guarma, leviticus cornwall etc. even though they were packing in the final mission, i doubt they were actually going to tahiti. i think they were packing up because they knew pinkertons were coming
God the way he gave him his hat is so sad ToT
Yeah it's even sadder when you go with John. I'll replay the mission and get that ending, too.
@@Exxioz alr man. keep up your amazing work
@@CharlotteNEO will do.
I think coming back for money was kind of stupid option, they really should have name it "Kill remains of the gang" or something.
The way they called it is kind of stupid, because why Arthur needs money? He's on death doorstep, it is more reasonable to atleast help John to get to safety, cause Arthur not going to live alot after getting the money.
I think it was more to give the money to john. Arthur even if he defeated Micah and Dutch, would probably still die of TB
11:17 How the hell is he still standing after all that stabs..??
Plot Armor
11:00 LOL Nice
4:25 one of the most badass scenes in gaming
Never tried this setting. How epic
Imagine if they both went after the money ☠️🔥
john would probably be a liability because of the bullet in his shoulder though
@@Garland846 yeah, you're right but what if he didn't got shot?
@@rdrxromaniathen rdr1 wouldn’t have happened.
The whole mission is like a Gta 4 mission
It is. GTA 4 was my favorite gta game.
@@Exxioz mine too
10:42 Yeah, that’s right. That’s the spirit. Keep on evading him and stabbing him
11:17
I did that attack repetitively and killed him ans glitched the game
@@saulgoodman2071did you get a clip?
@@Exxioz I am currently on holidays but I'll show you when I get back
@@saulgoodman2071 incredible
Anybody go visit Arthur's grave?
Everyday.
I do it every playthrough.
I really wish Arthur would have found the money and gave it to John before they parted ways.
That would’ve been nice, but John got robbed anyways.
should have died from the first two stabs from aurther
True.
Everything about this game is incredible. Except the Rio Grande Wild Turkey.
F/'s for Arthur
F
@@Exxioz F
As cool as the whole set up for this ending is, the final part really ruins it in comparison to the good ending with high honor. The scene with Arthur telling Dutch he gave him everything he had, followed by climbing up the mountain for his final rest out performs them just yelling at eachother like kids while Dutch stands in near silence.
I think this ending with the dialogue of going with John would’ve been the best.
this is the most badass ending you literally get synth and 808s
Bad honor dialogue is better I feel like
This was so perfect and badass
Thanks for watching.
Good game fr
Great game
Was Arthur just hearing Micah’s voice? Because there’s no way Micah was running back to camp, passing every Pinkerton while Arthur was chasing him
You could see him at one point. The pinkertons probably didn’t kill him because he was the rat.
considering Micah was the rat they probably let him live in hopes of continuing to be an informant
Only if this was named "Kill Micah and Dutch" it would've made more sense
It would’ve been better if it was “go with John” or “get revenge”
yeah for sure@@Exxioz
What's interesting about this game is the Honor system, fickle as it is, will adapt to the story beats over time. No matter how dishonourable you are initially, the things you do in the final chapters give you huge amounts of Honor that push you towards the better ending. You have to go out of your way to still have low Honor at the end of the game. And when playing as John, despite your Honor being reset, talking to Eagle Flies in Annesburg immediately catapults you into high/max Honor. Normally it's much easier to lose Honor than gain it but the late/post-game gives you a big push.
i keep trying for this ending but i cant help but be bad 🤣
It’s the opposite for me. I find it hard to not be good towards the end.
@@Exxioz 🤣
"revenge is an idiots game"
Bros gameplay is bad ass as fuck
I'm pretty sure no one in any universe chose the money instead of saving John on their first playthrough. Goes to show just how brilliant this story was.
I found it impossible to be dishonorable in chapter 6.
I've played through the game 7 times now and not once has been honourable😂 I always say this run will be the one but I always jus get loose with the trigger lol. First 4 playthroughs I helped John, just couldn't bring myself to go back for the money. On the 5th I went back for the money with, it was a horrible ending wit bad honour. Really sad.
@@Youroffensive. I think I’ve played it 11 times. The first one was honorable, the next three were dishonorable, and the rest have been honorable. I find myself doing dishonorable things in the start of the game and I’ll still end up being max honor towards the end from doing things like the Strauss missions.
@@Exxioz your a better man that me!
@Youroffensive I chose going back for the money first time... I figured it wouldn't matter, that John would be ok either way and that I'd somehow be able to get away and get the money to him... Turns out I underestimated the game's willingness to let Micah actually kill Arthur if you go back...
Crazy that you lose honor for this. It's obvious Arthur is going back to kill Micah and doesn't give a shit about the money
Even though it’s the “bad ending” I prefer this over going with John.
I think its bad because it's against Arthur though about the revenge, it only makes pain and suffer, he was always thinking about protecting the gang, not about revenge from people like Colm
@@Alaurigor “revenge is a fool’s game”
@@Alaurigor You could also look at it as insuring John's escape by diverting the Pinkertons and Micah
Why are you going around meleeing people it looks weird
I thought it looked cool, but to each their own.
nah, this is just really badass, Arthur is literally about to die so he's going to use all his brutality and physical strength to get through the Pinkertons, I always rewatch this video because it totally matches this ending
@@saboneteteira it just seems goofy like his goal is the get the money and kill Micah and plus the gameplay with this guy seems really akward
This aint weird bro its a sacrifice and revenge
I think that they should have removed both endings where arthur dies from tb and his choice should depend on his honor. If Arthur has low honor then he automatically goes back to get revenge and gets stabbed by micah. If he has high honor then he helps John and gets shot in the face. I don't really get why John would care about killing micah if he didn't kill arthur. Also sadie is the worst character of the game.
That would probably be more fitting for a rockstar game. I also didn’t really like Sadie.
@@Exxioz I guess they included arthur dying from natural causes to please everyone. Some people would be too upset if he gets killed. Since gta 5 they have become way more popular so I doubt that we will get these raw brutal storylines like before.
Including sadie, in my opinion, was also to please everyone and try to get more women to play the game. However, her character and story don't fit the theme of redemption ane even glorify the life of outlaws, contradicting everything else we see in the game. Very poorly written.
@@tonis6347 I liked the dark endings. Like the end of the first red dead redemption, and the bad ending in gta 4. Gta V didn’t really have a sad ending.
