Speedy type bounty

[@Gingersnap_Adventures]

I thought it was 100 or 10K? I don’t speak or understand Spanish maybe that’s why, also what has Arthur been doing? Dutch and Javier both have 1K while Arthur has 5K, why, how? Why don’t the Pinkertons go after Arthur if he has the bigger bounty.

[@Gingersnap_Adventures]

@@MeepMacArthur fair point.

[@realkoniri]

@@Gingersnap_Adventures to my knowledge that $1000 wanted poster for dutch was long-since outdated, and by the time of the events of the game his bounty was likely much much more. Additionally it is possible that the Pinkertons just made up a number for arthur to scare him, in my opinion if the bounty on his head alone was truly that high then it would have made much more sense for them to take him in right there.

I can't stand those "everything wrong with..." videos. They're all just word-salad, hot-takes delivered with a condescending tone. Aside from burying valid criticisms, they demonstrate the disconnect between someone who just consumes media and someone who creates. Every artistic project, especially RDR, has a brief and goal. Every decision, when made correctly, serves that goal and fulfills that brief, plain and simple. For instance, If you don't like it that the blackwater heist never gets expanded on, thats because only 10% of those details are relative to the player experience as well as the story they are trying to tell. They's an economy within storytelling, and only the important details need to be elevated to the player's attention at the end of the day.

I think Dutch insists on making more money bc he was hurt that he had to leave behind the black water money so I personally believe he wanted to get that much money

[@AHappyBlackGuy]

I always saw it like it was in Breaking Bad how in season 2 or 3 Walt scolds Jesse for complaining when he’s a millionaire but when Jesse and Mike wanna retire on 5 million dollars in season 5 Walter says that 5 million is nothing and they can get way more. So in Walt/Dutch’s eyes why retire on 5 million/ $7000 when you can keep the snowball going and retire on 100 million/$100000? But of course once they get to that point they’ll say that’s chump change too and want more and more until it kills them. The money’s more of an excuse if anything they just like the thrill of it really

Some people say that Dutch didn't actually want to go to Tahiti or Australia, and simply said that to boost the gang's morale. In reality he had become addicted to the gang life, the money, and the thrill it provided. Which is why even with millions of dollars on hand, Dutch still says its not enough to go to Tahiti. The real sin is why nobody questions it.

15:10 I always took this as a cool bit of writing. Brontë is perceived as this invincible figure. He calls Saint Denis “his city” at the party he’s constantly talking down about the people there. He’s shown to have a massive ego and thinks nothing of Dutch and his gang. So I always saw his gun not working as a play on his own arrogance that he’s so full of himself and believes himself to be so invincible that he’s never had to shoot his gun and either didn’t load it or just has no idea how to use it because he has never had his life threatened before. Idk I could be completely wrong but hey so was dartigan.

About Abigail and John not mentioning their dead daughter, when you capture Javier alive, in the cutscene, he says "I hope you and you wife and children rot in hell" it probably means he heard about them having a second child but he didn't find out about her death, further proving they had a second child between the epilogue of rdr2 and before rdr, even if she died before the epilogue, why would either of them mention the death?(Side note: I miss the old thumbnails)

[@ocifer]

Counterpoint for the needing more money than the first bank robbery, I don’t think Dutch’s plan was to get only enough money to move and somehow continue making money after they left, as it would most likely end in them just being in trouble again and having to flee yet another country to avoid the law. I think he wanted enough money for them to never need to worry about committing crimes in any of their lifetimes. That money from the first bank robbery, while a lot in that time, would be nowhere close to enough to support every member for the rest of their life without forcing them to resort back to their old ways.

More on John's daughter, I'm pretty sure John mentions in RDR1 that she was stillborn, or at the very least that she died young.

Karen and Bill were both in Valentine and known to some extent. Bill started the fight in the Valentine saloon the most popular place in town. Which is talked about by everyone in town. Arthur Javier Charles and Bill were the ones dominating in the fight so they’re probably more known for that. Karen went off to find leads in the saloon with Tilly and Marybeth so she probably talked to almost everyone in the saloon and goes off to the hotel with the man who worked at the Valentine bank (not confirmed but implied). The hotel owner takes note of her since if you ask him if she’s there he’ll confirm it. Valentine is a small town so it’s not a stretch to believe that people would talk about the man who started a bar fight and a woman going around and talking to all the men in the saloon.

[@skinskinner]

23:19 well, this is due to there being a train robbery in almost every rocktar game except bully

[@reidye]

1:41 yea. This is where I stopped watching the original video. Knowing what really went down on the ferry in backwater takes the entire mystery of the series out. Not knowing what happened exponentially increases the players interest in the event. And the fact that the gang members who were there do their best to avoid discussing it further this. lol and then he gets mad at the origin of John’s scar.

[@kingster14444]

10:25 I always saw the amount of money given as a great ludonarrative way to show that Dutch is not really in it for the money, and uses it as an excuse to do what he wants. I mean just look at how many times Dutch prefers to revenge/ego kill someone over getting money. He kills Bronte after they already have him for ransom. And He kills the old woman and doesn't even take the gold back. Just to name a few examples. I actually really like the money in RDR2 for several reasons, narratively it gives that hint, and gameplay-wise it allows majority of players to have most access to the game and it's features, and even makes it that much easier for players to start giving much more to others once Arthur realizes how sick he is.

[@kingclint2382]

The thing with Micah being rat but Pinkertons not immediately coming to camp, i have an observation. I think Pinkertons were telling Micah to suck up to and manipulate Dutch to cause more chaos to increase the bounty reward for Dutch, he probably suggested the idea of creating "more noise". When we visit Micah's camp near Strawberry, there is a Dutch bounty poster, so he was planning everything all along.

One sin that irritates me is that the game forces you to take two long guns into certain missions.

17:22 Another reason they can’t go to blackwater is because the gang has money there, so the pinkertons would expect them to show up and get the money, but they have no logical reason to go back to saint denis

[@metalhead522]

Why? For either. Do the Pinkertons know that they left behind the money in blackwater, while also knowing that they didn’t leave behind the gold in Saint Denis. With how absolutely botched the second robbery went, Saint Denis should have been as inaccessible as blackwater was. If anything after chapter 5, it woulda made more sense for blackwater to open back up, considering the Vanderlin gang was last located halfway across the country

2:24 I'll agree with Dartigan on this one. It should have just been setup like in most modern games where you gently push the left analog stick to walk, push all the way to move at full speed, and click the left stick to sprint. No reason why that couldn't have been the case and there's also no reason why your horses couldn't control that way either. Trying to portray realism is cool and all but it shouldn't come at the expense of the players frustration. 25:18 That's true but it doesn't change the fact that Red Dead 1 now feels really awkward with absolutely no mention of Arthur at all especially since you not only play as John, the man he saw as a brother but Dutch is one of the villains, the man they both saw as a father.

I disagree with the notion that Dutch needing more money doesn't make any sense. Remember, Dutch is VERY vague and private with how much money the gang has, and how much they need. Dutch does not ACTUALLY want to escape to Tahiti, he wants vengeance on society. The money is just the carrot he dangles in front of the others to keep them in line. He likely had enough money in chapter 3 at least, but that's not the point. He wasn't done with Cornwall, or Colm or so on by that point.

17:26 also blackwater is much smaller than st Denis so they’re more likely to be recognise/seen

[@christopherschroeder4096]

Regarding the sins between John's scars versus the Blackwater heist, yes, you can have it both ways. RDR2 turns out no differently if John did or did not get his scars during the events of the game, hence the pointlessness of the scar origin. The Blackwater heist events lift massive amounts of both games' stories driving the Pinkertons to hunt Dutch and company.

[@dukemeiser19]

@@christopherschroeder4096 yea as long as john has the scars it shouldn’t matter the origins

[@christopherschroeder4096]

@@dukemeiser19 I do agree with the Blackwater heist needing to be a mystery for the purposes of Arthur throughout the first four acts of RDR2 and thus a narratively legitimate reason for maintaining the mystery for the player. An RDR1 player already knows The Strange Man's claim and a new RDR player should have just enough information withheld to share Arthur's perspective. But Acts 5 and 6 should absolutely see Arthur getting the full story.

12:36 where can you find these npc dialogues? Have never heard them

[@dukemeiser19]

It’s a random encounter where you get approached by someone asking if you’ve seen bounty hunters prowling around

[@mullemeck5015]

@ Haven’t seen that and can’t find a video on it, but would be interesting to see if mb you have a link, anyways great video.

[@akibro113]

One small criticism of the video was the background music which sometimes can be a bit distracting But other than that, great video and as a huge RDR2 fan, you have anothet subscribe from me🔥

Appreciate the support, my newer videos I fix the audio mixing

13:46 and this is the low honor specific detail

[@giornogiobama1795]

I really like the "everything wrong " format of videos. I just wish most creators didn't pull non existing sins out of their bumm to make the videos longer

[@dukemeiser19]

There’s nothing wrong with criticism but it does get annoying when most EWW channels resort to sinning credits or title scenes

[@InurgyMusic]

Never knew the sin counter guy was this delusional

[@dukemeiser19]

the d in dartigan stands for delusion

[@gamergodeighty1686]

24:56 I think he's talking about the war horse you would get for pre ordering rdr2

[@dukemeiser19]

I know but i he still sinned the game

[@adriane9136]

I already knew counters to his statements and they perfectly matched up with yours, it’s so funny how hypocritical he was

[@dukemeiser19]

Nice

[@alfrogiguess]

11:00 just confuses me. I thought it was made clear that the braithwaite lady wanted Hosea to give out the shin edit free to make life hard for the grays with a bunch of drunks in the town?

[@dukemeiser19]

pretty much

[@mochatm9202]

isn't the whole point of games as a media to have multiple plot points that you can interact with throughout its duration ? ITS ACTUALLY 40 IQ

[@dukemeiser19]

literally

[@Lolxplays1]

26:02 correct me if I’m Wrong but this is more just a minor slip up John does go to strawberry to break Arthur out of prison if you get arrested there though you could not see his face he still technically go there

[@dukemeiser19]

@@Lolxplays1 well stuff like that is usually considered canon only to gameplay, Arthur isn’t meant to be arrested anyway out of cutscenes

[@trashdoge1217]

22:15 what's the alternative? Got one or two plot threads?? No resplution for the other one's???? Huh???

[@latewizard301]

Idk if it's correct, but i have heard you need to equip a knife in order for John to say "how do you think i got these scars?" But again, i've never heard that line while playing, as i literally have only seen wolves in that one mission with Jack.

[@dukemeiser19]

i don’t think so, I think you just need to fight wolves

I wish there was an April Fools video just like this except all the dude says is Nuh-uh.

21:15 also him finding that out beforehand DIDNT MATTER AT ALL THEY WOULD'VE PROTECTED THE GUY EITHER WAY

[@ForgottenPie]

Everything wrong with everything wrong with everything with Red Dead Redemption 2 Sin 1: Sinning a valid criticism about overshooting the valid area of interaction and calling it a "skill issue" Sin 2: Arthur is already starting to doubt Dutch at that point in the story, possibly John as well by now. Its not that far fetched that they would start questioning him Total: 2 Good job keeping it clean!
