      I think out of all the Van Der Linde Gang's deaths John was the only one that went out like a Boss. Arthur's was the most heartbreaking on High Honor. Dutch's was the most pathetic. Bill and Micah both got what they deserved. Javier from my perspective is rotting in jail. Sean's was the most shocking death and Lenny's death caught me by surprise and really disheartened me. Hosea's death made me angry because he didn't deserve that. Molly was practically begging to die and Mrs Grimshaw's caught me off guard. Kieran's death wasn't surprisingly has it really spooked the hell out of me especially with that weird guitar pecking.
      Each of the Gang's deaths were very unique and had a range of emotional responses from me. But Dutch's death to me was the most pathetic death surpassing Bill and Javier's.

      The treatment of Kieran Duffy in chapter 2 is explicitly part of the reason I cheered when I heard the Pinkertons rolling up in Chapter 6.
      Arthur's story was done at that point, and none of the rest of those heathens deserved redemption at that point, not even Grimshaw... Not after what she did to Molly.(though, obviously she was already dead by the time the Pinkertons arrived)
      Actually, Grimshaw was extremely abusive to the women of the camp for pretty much the entire game... I feel no guilt in admitting her cries of agony gave me a bit of catharsis on behalf of Mary Beth and Tilly.

      Personally I believe RDR 3 will be about Jack Marston. I hope it is the case. Jack will be a prohibition mobster who hates the law more than anything due to his quotes of killing the lawmen and sheriffs “yall killed my Pa!” “This one for you pa!.” Personally I believe he will be a World War 1 solider as he pretty much have nothing to live for due to his quotes as a good honor Jack. Even the last newspaper in the game states that war has broken out. Maybe he joins the army to find a sense of belonging after not having anything since the Beechers Hope shootout. Jack comes back from the war with more severed ptsd in world war 1 and beechers hope incident. It’s a new Dawn of an era where alcohol is banned and Jack raises his way up to the top but while he raises the reputation of himself, the fbi renews the unsolved murder case of Edgar Ross and Jack Marston becomes the prime suspect in the investigation. Hopefully Charles and Sadie can make a cameo or an appearance. While it still can be revolvers and pistols in the game with the dead eye setting. Jack can probably be the deadliest Van Der Linde member due to him reading literature where he can be charismatic, charming, intelligent, and manipulative as he hid his true intentions to Edgar family members until he met Edgar and how he would be a gunslinger and a potential ww1 soldier. Jack redemption I would say maybe it’s his reinterested of his love of literature that makes him want to have a normal life again or he falls for someone which makes him have second thoughts of continuing his mob life.

      Ehh, both of their deaths are extremely devastating. I found they were very alike, both positive and optimistic, smart and both really admired Arthur. In a way earlier chapter (I think chapter 2), you can stumble in on some hidden dialogue between Tilly, Hosea and Lenny, where they start talking about how they want to die and where they would be buried. Hosea states he'd like to die of old age, but to be buried with his friends from the gang, and Lenny states the same. Later if you go to their graves, they were buried together by Charles.
      Fun fact: Arthur will also join in the conversation, saying he'd like to die on a hill, overlooking the sunset, and then be buried on a hill to see the sunset in death. At the end of the main story, he dies on a hill.. overlooking the sunrise, and Charles will bury him on a hill where he can see the sunrise and sunset.

    Abigail's death wasn't caused by John. It is never explicitly stated how she died but that she just died in 1914 from causes unknown to us, she could have gotten sick or just depressed and fell in with something, which makes John's death indirectly responsible. I think the reason Rockstar did it was so that we could have a young Jack as protagonist in RDR1 and not play as some 40 year old Jack who wouldn't even be able to kill Ross as he would be dead by then.
    John's actions did buy Jack and Abigail 3 years before Jack would ultimately fall in to the outlaw life. And remember the reason Ross and Archford know about John is because he went after Micah at a time when he finally had his family back together, he chose revenge over living a new life. Which renders his redemption act not so fruitful. Which also render's Arthur's ''main'' redemption arc(because he and John actually were able to save tens of people via stranger missions or random encounters) pretty useless. But this also ties to what Sister Calderon told Arthur, that you should try to do the good thing even if you won't get something out of it, just because you know it's right, that is how both John and Arthur reached their full arc of redemption. They did the right thing without thinking of what would come next.

    You commented on Micha needing to become old. Given he never left the gunslinger style of crime him being into his late 40's is a serious accomplishment. Hosea reached that age by avoiding armed conflict and Arthur Morgan was being told he was losing his edge at 36. Micah by his death was probably the second best gunslinger in his age bracket with only Dutch being older and still a better draw

    I don't understand the logic of placing John so low, the reasons you gave fit perfectly with Arthur Morgan, and I didn't see the two in the same tier
    In fact, Morgan's fate was worse, definitely, he died alone, in anguish, he didn't die for anyone, he died for nothing, he died in betrayal
    john at least saved his family, he died in peace, after achieving what he always wanted
    and don't tell me that Arthur died to save John, or that he died so he could have a family, Arthur always hit that point, he didn't sacrifice himself for that specifically
    Arthur had nothing to lose, nothing to gain, last thing he did was putting his last efforts on vengeance, his death was just a brutal postponement of his undeniable destiny, he himself says in his final scene, he didn't win, Dutch didn't win, Micah didn't win, but John did
    Abigail died of natural causes, John didn't have control over that, and that Alone dosen't make his fate, his sacrifice, purposeless

    Arthur contracted and suffered from TB at a young age, was stabbed in the back by his best friend and mentor, was used and sucked dry by the only woman he ever loved after doing everything for her, watched the only family he ever had get ripped apart by his mortal enemy, was beaten to death by the biggest miscreant in the RDR universe, died alone on a mountain, and you rank his fate a B Tier?? Honestly, his fate was probably worse than John's. At least John was able to live a normal family life for a few years and fought off a zombie apocalypse.

My favorite example being Dutch saying something along the lines of “We will not be forced to live in a cave like a bunch of animals”. If you’ve played through the story, you’ll know that’s exactly where the gang ends up and is disbanded.

We'd be rooting for Pinkertons irl but because we have the perspective of the criminal we sympathize and hate who he hates and the people who say "Arthur didn't deserve to die but Strauss did" would probably flip that if they were real people in real life.

That life destroyed everything for most of them involved, Only John, Marybeth and Tilly got a good life from that way of life and it was entirely Johns fault.

    i think Arthur's should be just a tad higher, he has stated before that he would want to die facing the sunrise, and he gets that exactly and if he never got tb he would have lived longer but would more then likely have met an even worse fate because he wouldn't be on a changing path

    I’ve said this in other comments and gotten flak for it but because Karen’s fate is never explicitly shown or told in the main story or Epilogue, there’s a possibility Rockstar did that purposely and she is secretly still alive somewhere. The only details we have are from Tilly’s letter to Abigail in which she *believes* that Karen drank herself to death, but Tilly doesn’t and couldn’t officially know that for sure. I think Karen is a dark horse candidate to return in RDR3, maybe not as a main character but a supporting one. She could have her own mini-Redemption subplot as an older and wiser version who cleaned herself up and now runs with a new protagonist gang.

    In GTA 5 we can find a book called "Red dead redemption" by "J. Marston" and also in GTA 5 online one of your heritages can be John Marston. So I believe Jack became a writer and had a family after avenging his father. Or it could be just Easter eggs, who knows ? Or these games could be just actually fictional story created by Jack, so a fictional universe inside a fictional universe

    Lenny was 19 he most likely would have lived until a time where he would actually get equal rights but he gets killed in a time where he barely had rights at all

      He would’ve been in his 90’s or older so I doubt he would have lived until then
