For high honor just go to St. Denis and greet everyone.
Much faster than fishing
Exactly bro that's what i did! go there and legit spam greet while walking. U can go lower honor to highest honor in like 30-40mins
@@adix3603 Or just do the 4 or 5 honor missions that grant you a massive boost in honor towards the end of the game as Arthur makes ammends for his past actions/mistakes. A great way to get the good ending and tie up Arthur's story.
or go back to camp and donate all your money but in increments of like 50 bucks

Wtf ? Rockstar people are crazy.
Fun fact: Dutch can’t admit he’s wrong. You can tell when Micah kills Arthur he keeps saying “I” but can’t say “I’m sorry” because he can’t admit he’s wrong.
This here. This is so important and seems to go vastly overlooked. Dutch is by definition a Narcissist. He can't admit he's wrong, because I'm some way, his world literally doesn't work that way. I grew up with Narcissistic people in my life, and as difficult as it is to understand, to them, the reality really is that they can't logically do anything wrong.
@@danielgaming2223 Yeah but despite being a narcissistic person, I believe Dutch really truly did care about Arthur. The simple fact that he even tried to say "I'm sorry" even if he decided not to say it and simply walk away is enough proof.
@@Xeno574 I'd say he regretted how he treated someone so loyal to him in the end. But Dutch was definitely not good enough to actually care beyond that.
@@thephoenix4093 Yeah, he truly did have a bond with Arthur regardless of whatever people say. It just simply wasn't strong enough for Dutch to redeem himself or anything like that.
The only time I remember him saying sorry after finding your first camp in guarma
i had literally no issues maintaining max honor throughout the entire game
@ToMMy I completed the game 3 times and only JUST now realized that I didn't die a single time in either playthrough. I was so immersed in the game that I took Arthur's life (and especially my horse's life) quite seriously.
@ToMMy well I am a fool because I just like having fun and killing people
@@Goldrunner1169 I did that years ago in RDR1 With cheats non stop for about 70hours straight after that I had no desire to do the same again so I think I got off well
ToMMy why would you want the good ending? Having high honour is a boring way to play the game.
@@TheShortbread123 if you care about Arthur you feel obligated to bring the best out of him. You want him to become a hero
Mediocre villains? Dutch is probably the most effective villain I've ever seen in a video game because there are layers to his character. You truly feel conflicted about him.
I agree.
I love his character development, and how he descends into villany, and how corrupted his mind gets, and how he develops into who he is in RDR1.
so true
Dutch a villian?
sure he was written like an antagonist but he feels more like a anti-hero or anti-villian of the game
the real villian of the game is Micah
Yeah, I can’t agree with him on that at all.

I actually liked the non-action missions in the epilogue. I don’t think you need shooting for it to be fun or “red dead redemption”.
I wish there was more of the house building missions
Same, I liked the break of killing people, and just doing normal things. Like the person who replied before me, building the house.
@@IWantToStayAtYourHouse Honestly, me too. I didn't think I'd enjoy them but they were so peaceful, therapeutic in a sense.
I feel like this is what Online is still missing. World-building and character development is very important indeed, and whilst the story had that in spades, and even made some of the most trivial side-content feel impactful in some way or another, Online falls flat on its face due to the repetitive nature of its side-content, and especially its main content.
I thought the prologue did a really good job in making you want John to settle down
The game is not perfect, that's for sure, but it still is a masterpiece to me.

Bad honor could have been so much more. Imagine, the lower your honor, and higher your bounty, people start recognizing and fearing you. Saloons empty when you step in, people run in their houses when they see you approaching, people afraid of making eye contact, people giving you free things out of fear, people and even policemen straight up refusing to fight you and run away due to your reputation. If you won't have me be a Lucky Luke style gunslinger, in regard to the story missions that force you into illegal actions, at least let me become a scourge of the west; a feared outlaw. Also, when going for realism, infinite spawning police forces in places like Rhodes might not be such a good idea. Would be interesting to be able to wipe out the law for a large period of time and watching crime go rampant in a town, while also making shootouts winnable and more realistic. The way things are right now you either run away or die eventually.
Instead, we have "better not cause no more trouble now y'hear?"

I think Dutch is one of the best written antagonists in a video game, watching his descent over the course of the game was so good

@@John-qe5sq a good antagonist, but not one whose descent you experience directly at all.

@@tomk8350 What?
I strongly disliked how missions would automatically assign you weapons at times. I used the cattleman revolvers for most of the game, and it would frequently auto-equip the double actions or schofields. Same with rifles. I hated how missions would automatically equip a rifle or shotgun.
Let me choose my own weapons, dammit!
they said before launch that was a feature and you would have to select your long guns before a mission or you might be overpowered
Seriously how many times I gotta pull out my lancaster repeater only to learn it's been replaced by a shitass litchfield? Come on now.
I just want to be able to use my springfield to force me to get headshots.
I even got a glitch costing me like, $1000 in-game when, during the last mission of chapter 3, I died defending the braithwaite house and my springfield rifle just *disappeared.* Wasn't on my horse either, and that was a gold rifle with mahogany varnish. I had to by another one and spend like, $300 customising it.
I feel that
That’s only the tip of the iceberg... try to kill anyone indoors with a knife... suddenly the entire town knows your name... before phones... stupid
Not gonna lie Arthur's honorable ending brought a tear to my eye
Same
I was balling.
There must have been a lot of onions being chopped in my house that day. I’m not an emotional person most of the time unless I’m drunk. Yet this game, like the first RDR, really hit me in the feels. Even when I was fighting Micah at the end, I knew the outcome of Arthur’s fate. Yet I was still thinking that if I did everything perfectly and didn’t get hit, maybe I’d live. Even though John Marston was probably my favourite ever protagonist up until RDR2, I felt empty playing him after Arthur.
Agreed. Legendary😭
I... forgot there was a bad ending... I must play again...
Actually the cinematic view at 8:28 does have its use; if you set your waypoint yourself (or a mission waypoint), your horse will automatically follows that waypoint, so you dont need to hold any button to move. Quite useful if you just want to rest your finger for a bit while not wanting to use the fast travel
You’ve helped me greatly friend

Evan Kauffman I heard him say this and thought “ok, he’s just trying to be edgy, right?” 😕 it may not be perfect, but it’s 11/10 when compared to almost any other game in the past 10+ years. And that’s saying something, since there wasn’t THAT much which was super new to the mechanics in the game. It was newer, shinier, and prettier than the last, but it was just more of the last. But that *more* was certainly much *better*, *more fun*, and felt somehow exponentially *redder*, *deader* and *more redemptier*.

Let me tell you It was sooo satisfying
One more dimension to the story I think you missed is Micah's death and how it leads into the events of RDR1. With Micah, his spy, dead, Edgar Ross hunts down the man responsible for it so he could still have a lead on finding and killing Dutch, just as Milton was tasked to do previously. If John had listened to Abigail and fully let go of his past as a vengeful gunslinger, Ross would have had no reason to hunt him down, kidnap his family, and set into motion the events of RDR1. John's irrational need for revenge and to break away from the stagnant domestic life he established for himself and his family causes him to take up arms once again, precisely what Arthur attempted to keep him from doing. Arthur was a bad man turned good, but his attempts to break the cycle of redemption ultimately fail with John when his hunting down of Micah eventually lead to his own death at the hands of Ross. Looking at the big picture, John's failure to break the cycle of redemption then leads to his own son, Jack, leading exactly the life both John and Arthur tried to save him from. Its very likely Jack ends up unceremoniously murdered because of his life decisions as well, probably while seeking a redemption of his own. This cycle of (red dead) redemption is the true overarching plot of the series.
Well said. I never thought of it like this. No wonder why they emphasized Abigail being so against him going to kill micah. Even Charles said that Arthur says revenge is a fools game. Cool point bro thanks
I knew i shouldnt have come here before playing, is micah's death a big spoiler for rdr2?
@@RepublicofODLUM it kinda is, not the biggest spoiler on the commentary, but still is. Anyway, you will enjoy playing it and living the narrative regardless.
@@f.c.m.3865 k, thanks.
Thats a really smart way to look at it, definitely some things I missed, but the only difference I would make to that theory is with Jack. Jack dosent just die in the end, he breaks the cycle himself, he is always so happy when he is a child in RDR2, which leads on to him not going further after avenging johns death, I like to think it ends there, we see in rdr2 that he is a good kid with a kind heart, but with his father's arrogance, which sets him in motion for revenge, but what separates this from John and Arthur's story, is that jack actually succeeds. Jack breaks the cycle of revenge, he grew up surrounded by it, saw his family molded by it, yet broke the cycle.
You have completely and utterly missed the point of this game...

Maybe it's just because I'm native American, but helping them was my favorite part of the game. Their story breaks my heart and I felt obligated to help them

I’m not native American and their story line was among my fav part of the game too.
I loved their Story
As a Native American myself, I see a lot of people who look and sound like Rains Falls and seeing him beg his only son to stop fighting and begs, it's just sad and heartbreaking to see.
I wish they would release a single player DLC where you get to play as Charles and help the tribe escape to Canada (along with burying Arthur’s body and maybe some street fighting missions)
Great video as always. However, I couldn't disagree more when you say that RDR2 is a worse game if you played RDR1 (due to removing the tension factor for certain characters).
As a fan of RDR1, one of the my favourite aspects of RDR2 was seeing HOW certain characters developed into who they are in RDR1. In my view it benefits both games.
I know right .Plus all the foreshadowing done throughout rdr2 is so clever .
also all the little nods you pick up on too from the original and undead nightmare
@@thedarkderp2520 I think that is why it works so well
I loved RDR1 but RDR2 is superior in my opinion. Brings all landscapes a western can take place in, adds in depth hunting/fishing, NPC interactions, etc... No, it's not perfect but makes GTAV look like a fool.
Exactly, I developed deeper understandings about RDR1's original characters through RDR2. How did Dutch lose it all? How did the gang leave John for dead? What does Arther Morgan facilitate John's story? It made it much more intriguing to watch the character development knowing what goes down in RDR1.
"Ride with me ms. Adler" had to be one of most powerful and perfectly placed interactions, i actually cared about the people and that's a rarity.
Yeah, it is for alot of people. Usually games don't give us the bonds with the characters and stuff, so we could really give a flying fuck if they die or naw.

He really is the best part of the game in my opinion and as you said the moment at 39:06 is just so godamn good, the music, Arthur's situation... everything.
And I also got to agree on the game restrictivness being too much, I've never bought this recent narrative that I seem to be seeing everywhere of "iF iTs LiNeAl iS bAd" but RDR2 takes lineality way too far during missions, I know Rockstar wants us to play the game the way they think is the best but jeez the handholding gets ridiculous at some points as you remark on the video.

False. He took too long dicking around with the bow and arrow guy who was just standing around while the 2 people who were actually in danger got killed.
The bad honor is because as far as the game knows you just stood there and let it happen, which in this case is basically true.

Especially if you use high velocity I took out two guys with one of those rounds.

The slow pacing of some missions in Act III is a valid critique, but at the same time, it makes a lot of sense in the context of Arthur's character arc. By that time, Arthur is disillusioned with Dutch and he knows he's dying so he's trying to find some meaning in his life by helping other people. He starts helping Native Americans, the sister, the random people he meets and even the son of the guy from whom he got TB. These slow missions make a lot of sense from the narrative point of view. They also serve as nice breaks from massive shooting galleries that happen all the time in Act III.

There's a lot of good points in this video throughout. Lots and lots.
One disagreement I do have is how you talk about the downside of introducing new main characters late into the game, and how it slows the game down when you want to get to the end. Rains Fall and Eagle Flies are two incredibly important characters, simply for Arthur's development toward the end, which is where the main shift in his desire and moral compass comes (Acts 5&6.) Rains Fall is someone helpless and needy and a dying Arthur wants to make amends in his life for the wrong things he knows he's done.
RDR2 story isn't just simply about rootin, tootin, an shootin (yes it's incredibly fun and addicting,) it's a tale on morality and the importance of realizing your mistakes in life and doing what you can to rectify that before you die. I'm sure you understand that, but the introduction of these main characters is what really shifts Arthur's view. One thing you say is "It would've served Arthur's character arc better." That's just incorrect. You do address how Arthur understands the world better after his conversation with Charles, which kind of contradicts your original point. He doesn't come to this realization til late in the game, and it's these new main characters that help bring that realization to life even more. Arthur is a very different person by the end of the game, and characters like Rains Fall are why he makes such a moral shift. If these characters had been around since Act 1 or 2, there wouldn't be much of a change in Arthur by the end of the game. Yes, there are characters you help throughout the early stages of the game, and do nice things for. But Arthur isn't dying and he literally doesn't see the merit of it, because his whole life has been about robbing and killing. He beats people senseless for not paying the debts back in Acts 2&3, but by Act 6, you're literally giving your own money away to the needy people. If you were required (by the game) to help them (RF & EF) that early on, you wouldn't feel like Arthur really was a different person by the end. It's the helplessness of these characters, the stage of Arthur's health, and the wisdom shared by the characters that gives Arthur a new sense as to what is important in life.
Just my thoughts. Even though it was a small part of the video, I thought I would address it and try to get a dialog going. If you do have something to say, please be respectful, it makes the discussion much better for all :)

Your empty cores give me physical pain. Personally I never found it that difficult to keep Arthur healthy, but I am pretty neurotic with that kind of thing.
My biggest issue with the game was the repetitive mission design. It often consisted of riding to a location, something goes wrong, shoot people, shoot people on horse, escape, return to camp. It’s worth noting I didn’t really notice this until my second playthrough. However, I’ve beaten the game three times, which goes to show how good the story here is.
My issue with the game is that it stopped giving you stuff to do. You couldn't hunt bounties infinitely like you could in the first game, random events happened once and only repeated again during the epilogue. The only things to really do during post-game was hunting and mass crime sprees.
I mean after the hundreds of side missions you could just, replay the story, it’s that good that I can happily enjoy it 8 times in a row and not get bored, and even after all that there’s the online, not that good, I know, but seriously extremely underrated, with a couple friends it can be a blast.
He said this game ain’t give u enough to do…😂 side quest main missions random events hunting dueling legendary animals random events things you can do around camp visiting locations shoot out with cops cheat codes😂bruh I can name more and you saying that it stopped giving u things to do is kinda crazy u must’ve played ts 2000 hours
i mean im sure the amount of side quests and main story missions is more than enough. try doing the challenges or hunt for all achievements
"stopped giving you stuff to do"
This is literally one of, if not the most, content filled game ever made.
The amount of hours you can put in doing everything is absolutely insane.
That's a really REALLY cheap criticism considering it can technically be applied to every game as all games have an "end" where all you're doing is slight variations of the same activity. Which isn't a bad thing but it's inevitably where you'll end up.
Video games aren't endless content pits. Everything eventually gets experienced so it's about how enjoyable it is to experience those things. In the case of RD2 it's so fun we do it over and over again.
@@zachrichardson5581 content filled doesn't mean all of them are engaging. Lots of those activities are just on railed experience you can mindlessly do with hardly any variations
I get that some people don't care about braindead video games experience, but
I thought the epilogue was fantastic. Especially if you played the first RDR. To see the house being built..
epilouge was rushed it was for rdr1 service

It’s a damn house.
13:33 you got bad honor because you looted that ladies husbands corpse
Exactly lmao. If you looted the enemy you would have been fine lol.
True, but I never understood what difference it makes to loot a corpse of a dead enemy and that of a dead stranger. Both cases are essentially stealing and neither of those dead guys need that shit anymore, lol. There's not much moral ground behind saying it's dishonorable to loot the corpse of an unlucky traveller killed by someone else but it's honorable to loot the corpse of a guy you killed just because he was a member of an enemy gang.
The honor system is fucked up in several similar points. Like when you're just collecting stuff (e.g. herbs) near the camp of a stranger, he starts shooting at you so you defend yourself - and lose honor. How exactly is defending your life dishonorable when you weren't the one who started shooting first? What are you supposed to do when a trigger happy random bastard tries to kill you? Run away? Veeeeery honorable!
Also, if you antagonize a stranger to a point where he starts shooting at you, and you kill him, you lose honor. OK fine I can understand that you started the conflict verbally and it's bad. However, many times you are verbally insulted by strangers for no good reason at all (they can actually say very irritating things) but if you shoot them, again, you are the one who loses honor. Following the logic of the previous case, you did NOT start the conflict so you shouldn't lose honor.
Etc.

I have a feeling they introduced the Health Stamina and Dead Eye Core mechanic really for chapter 6. You see it heavily affected in chapter 6, and we all know why, and I think that is to help us feel what Arthur feel in a gameplay perspective.

It kind of sounds like you wanted the game to just be gta with cowboys, but that is not what the game is or should be.

To me the review sounded like it was coming from someone who rockstar didnt make this game for. He talks about how the mechanics arent really "fun" but it seemed to me rockstar was going for immersion. So in gunplay we have snap to aim because trying to maintain realism in 3rd person makes it really hard to shoot well (red dead revolver had good gunplay put it definitely looked goofy), so with snap to aim its not really us who is a legendary gunslinger, but aurthur. Were only watching or being immersed into the story of aurthur we ourselves are not aurthur. In many ways this game is an homage to the spaghetti western not really the glory days of john wayne or the gritty depressing realism of the modern revisionist western. In this way rockstar is retreading the hay day of Sergio Leonie, legendary gunslingers, huge beatiful open scenery, and also a slow very slow story and play. This review seems to focus on if the mechanics are fun, is the story fun? I disagree that is the point the game is immersive, we feel invested into the game and the characters and the world, it does not neccesarily need to be immediately "fun".
In the end this review appears to me to come from someone who wanted RDR to be more like GTA, and just because he published a review that is contrarian doesnt make it true. It means he has a opinion, but in my opinion his opinion is wrong.
@@TribuneAquila I disagree with you but okay
Ideally, that would've been where you elaborated. Just letting us know that you disagree with someone doesn't really achieve anything.
Couldn’t disagree more. RDR1 didn’t make me feel much but determination to beat it whereas I’ve cried and laughed and became attached to the characters in a way few media ever elicit.
Nothing is perfect when knitpicked to such an extent but perfection doesn’t make something a masterpiece. I was watching the Dark Knight the other day and I noticed lots of little goofs (like Joker’s suspenders “magically” changing position between shots) but if you let those ruin the experience that’s on you. That doesn’t make the film less of a masterpiece
The game has clearly resonated with so many on a level beyond most games and even films. For me it’s left an indelible impression well after playing. To me that makes it a masterpiece.

Getting arrested in RDR2 is also a reset for the region. So really there's no argument there.
13:46 You got bad honour because you accidently shot the lady through the guy.
And looting her husband
Great video and I would say I agree with most of this except:
1. I can't say it's worse playing it after the first game. I like the allusions it makes toward it, i.e. seeing how John got his scars, Jack and Ross meeting on a river bank, Uncle resting right where we know he will die, John posing like he does on the first game's box (though maybe that one's a bit too blatant). It does restrict the plot, but so is the mere nature of prequels.
2. Micah is a great villain. I don't think I've ever hated an antagonist as much as him. He's loyal only to himself, bigoted, greedy, ultra-violent, and ratting on the gang to the Pinkerton's while manipulating Dutch, causing his decent into madness, as well as gang member's deaths (including Hosea), and the eventual downfall of the Van Der Linde Gang. I think we all wanted to shoot him every time he made fun of Arthur's tuberculosis.
well its not worse because its a prequel, whitelight made a good video with some bogus points, and ya Micah is a great villain because right of the gecko you hate him which tells you Micah isn’t a loyal outlaw, he only cares about money and his guns
I don't know if hating a villain makes them so great tbh. I mean of course you'd hate him, he's written as such an obvious asshole with his unpredictable and violent tendencies. Dutch imo, is the game's truly amazing villain because he's actually well-written with multiple layers that one can analyze to figure out whether he was bad all along or merely cracked under the pressure.
Saying Micah is a mediocre villain just a wrong statement
@@wall-nutgang8654
No it isn't, that's an opinion and Micah is simply a punching bag that the writers want you to point to as the obvious villain.

RDR2 is such an odd game. The realism is second to none. It's beautiful and has excellent dramatic tension, dialogue and voice acting.

I loved hearing your synopsis of manhood. A level of depth that I wasn’t expecting from a game review. Well done sir.
I personally think that the whole honor system is amazing for THIS game which is the most story centric game I’ve ever played
true but it is a little clunky sometimes with getting good honor being more of a chore and bad honor feeling giving you to much and good to less, but the examples whitelight made were handicapped because of his massive bounty, a good example would be when i saved a guy being kidnapped i got no honor because he was a criminal, and no bad because i let him go, it cancels out
The potential for honor system is waaaaaay bigger in online mode, where you aren’t locked into that story thing. Although Rockstar is too dumb to realize of how much of a huge, gigantic, big pile of potential cash they are sitting on

Well it was perfect for me the only complaint I had was my guns would dissappear after I got off my horse
supercomputer2004 Your guns were probably being stored on your horse as the game does automatically after you’ve been riding for a bit. It’s important to make sure you grab your guns off your horse before taking off. I believe Hosea emphasizes that in the early story.
the worst thing is when i don't want to carry multiple rifels on my back during a mission, i select the guns i want (revolvers only) and when i get off my horse the game just spawns them on my back anyway. also, i wish there would be an option to only carry one revolver.
