    Thanks so much for watching! It's been a joy examining the history of each individual mission, and I really appreciate your endless support.
    Now that all of the chapters are done, it's only fair to ask: which one was your favourite?

      I enjoyed the entirety of it, especially the miners carbide head lamp in chapter 6, and the Adirondacks (a place I’m extremely familiar with) in this chapter. :)

      I loved the history you covered about Chapter 4 personally, so much I learned there about Saint Denis and the real world historical implications. That being said, you have to do a series for RDR1!!!

      Tbh chapter 6 has everything that I love about rdr2. Crazy action,heartbreaking scenes,and it ties the side missions you did earlier to Arthur’s redemption and final ride before he dies.

    I really loved the epilogue of this game. It was long as hell, which I hated the first game for doing, but here it really gave me a new love and respect for John. Watching him really try, and watching him better himself, was such a ride. I absolutely adored the mission where it's literally just a day on the town with him and Abigail. It does kind of make it even more bittersweet, though, knowing what comes in the next- err- in the first game.

    I've been watching this series religiously since you started, and it's always been so fascinating, but I have to say, you absolutely knocked it out of the park with this one including stuff I never even considered to think of as historical. The addition of the history of women not taking men's names in the United States was an artful touch.

It was a long wait since the last one but I'm so happy to hear that you'll continue with the series in different forms and later in the original Red Dead Redemption, I had been hoping you would make more of these videos. Theres alot of things that could make for a good ''Real History'' video, like the sidemission, gear and equipment aswell as everything that goes along with it like weapons and ammo.

    One overlooked detail: in Quick Favor for an Old Friend, Uncle asks John if he thinks that the year is 1785. This may seem random, but Uncle can refer to a barn that was built in Ohio from about 1775 to 1865 and was later destroyed in a fire.

I*m thinking of striking up all the videos and watch them in order, from start to finish. But, I must ask; when you mentioned the first game and that there's much more history to discover there... does that mean you're going to scrutinize that as well? It being my favorite game of all time, I'm more than willing to accompany you on that ride, partner.

    Fun fact: All uncles singing in RDR 2 is sung by uncles original voice actor, "John O'Creagh". Who voice uncle in RDR 1.
    The in-game location "O'Creagh's run" is likely named after John aswell.

    • @RealPixels
      @RealPixels  Рік тому +5

      John O'Creagh didn't actually voice Uncle in RDR1-that was Spider Madison. O’Creagh was cast specifically for RDR2 but sadly died during production, and was replaced by James McBride. You're right though: that's John O'Creagh's singing voice!

    I loved this series Real Pixel! I really hope you do Red Dead Redemption 1 as there's a lot of content there but also I don't know if you would want to but there are a lot of side quests in red dead 2 that have rich history in some of those story lines as well. Maybe you could do red dead redemption 2 extras or something, I don't know just a thought but me and my brother have absolutely adored your historically accurate series and its just such a great series. You could honestly adapt this to other games as well such as rdr1, GTA: Vice City, San Andreas, there's a plethora of games out there with lots of rich history in the background that I'm sure not many people actually know about. Waiting to watch this video earlier in the day since its kind of late now, but as always thank you for making such a great series all the way to the very end, I just hope this will not be the last we see Historically Accurate as Rdr2 was easily the best one for this category but there are most definitely other games you could adapt this too. Hope to see more of this, as always fantastic content :)

    A video dedicated to all of Red Dead 2's Historical INACCURACIES would be cool.

    24:58 I'd also say the phrase was probably a play on the phrase "albatross around your neck" from the poem "The Rime of the Ancyent Marinere," or as it's now known "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner." That poem was published in 1798, so it would have been long established by that point.
