Dutch's Camp Speeches / Red Dead Redemption 2

[@whynot-tomorrow_1945]

14:36 Recently came across Dutch's "speech" at the final camp, and it gave me chills. If you look around, almost none of the gang members are nearby. And even then, they're clearly not listening to him. It is at this moment that it becomes apparent that every previous pep-talk to the gang was largely rehearsed and rehashed, and now Dutch's lofty platitudes ring utterly hollow. It's like he's giving the speech to no one, not even himself. He's speaking because he is the one who gives speeches. He is a broken man, leading a broken gang. Just, wonderful story telling! 10/10

[@sytron3912]

He should've plan a mass exodus (along with a good speech) right after moving to Beaver Hollow.

[@25kbanana]

[@titustavares335]

Agreed 10/10 it’s kinda scary good. Anyway it’s kinda pathetic isn’t it? You pity him, hate him, and sorta believe him all at the same time. It’s like he’s lashing out at nothing, because that’s what he “fights for” fucking nothing. He doesn’t have to fight the world to change it. He just wants to fight.

Fui Gebhardt1 I have no idea where your hate for him comes from. He’s a well written character who changes in a natural and believable way and that’s what makes him so interesting. He feels like someone who is actually real. And you associating the SJW angle to him tells me you didn’t get his character at all. He’s a very selfish and manipulative man who uses the “justice” and “freedom” as excuses for his robbing and murdering. He founded his entire gang on weak willed people who looked up to him because they felt he saved them, and continues to use similar tactics with the Indians, getting many of them killed in the process just to satisfy his own ego and steal the money. He’s not a sympathetic character at all.

Anyone notice how when Arthur said in chapter 1 and 2 “we got your back” Dutch would reply “I know YOU are but the others I ain’t so sure” then the last few chapters “I ain’t so sure about YOU or the others anymore” my theory is he lost his faith after the ferry job in blackwater and was just surviving that’s my theory tho so don’t cut my head off if I come off wrong

[@ethanbradley2089]

I don't think you're wrong. But it wasn't just Dutch. All the higher ups know what's coming. From Hosea and Arthur to John, they all speak about a pending doom after Blackwater. Dutch was the boss though, so he had to keep morale up.

[@user-vg3lq5xw6p]

There's something interesting about the speech that Dutch gave to Bill about power and fools, and bigger fools that listen to them. Bill: "I don't quite get it." Dutch: "You will, son... You will.

[@dutchvanderlinde8824]

Somehow I feel Dutch the most sorry of all, I mean he lost his wife, then Hosea and after he has confided in the wrong person (Micah), also his son Arthur and the gang that was a family for him, he has EVERYTHING lost in his life ... the only thing he could do is leave the Blackwater money for John and take care of John's family ... so I don't understand why everyone calls Dutch the "bad", the only bad was Micah! Without Micah, Dutch would not have gone mad, without Micah, Hosea would still have been alive, and without Micah, Blackwater would not have been and the gang would not have been on the run and then Arthur would not have had TB. without Micah the gang in the west could have lived freely. We only know Dutch at the end but the 20 years before that make up for it, and if you look at the internet you can read a little bit of the history of the gang, it also says that Dutch used to do a lot of good things, for example he has Arthur as a son adopted, many of the gang saved lives and was like a Robin hood of the wild west, namely he deprived the rich of money and gave poor people the money and THESE whole things make Dutch a good person, of course he unfortunately went mad in the end but imagine if you were in the situation, have lost a lot of friends and your best friend who you know for over 20 years and have to take care of your gait yourself but you don't know what to do anymore, believe me you would also go crazy. Finally he did his best and if he was REALLY someone bad he would have shot at the end of RDR 1 John, just like at the end of RDR2 ... so I can't be angry with Dutch and would forgive him, unlike Micah .. . I hope that RDR1 tells the beginning of the gang, that would be really nice ..:

[@allalongthewatchtwer]

You can see how much this poor man has been inflated and bombarded by many factors of the events that have transpired during the course of red dead. The losses of many members, the ones that have always been the closest and most loyal to him. It's evident how much his speeches changed from stage to stage, starting as this charismatic, patriotic, indipendent character. To finish as a confused, mind controlled (by Micah), paranoid, and a really lonely man, that lost everything, the man whom he loved as a son, Arthur (even hope for the country that he searched freedom from for his entire life, as he then changed his mind in camp conversations, starting from this Tahiti plan to everything but not America). Indeed, in the epilogue is silently crystal clear his despise for Micah, taking him some years to find him and the right moment to revenge himself. In the end Dutch always suspected, but never paid enough heed. Even when everything came evident, it seemed that he just let everything slide, transcending even more into madness.

the one thing you can definitely learn from this.... This is how you learn how to be a motivational speaker for people. Dutch Van der linde, for all the bad he did, is one of the greatest Public speakers going from gaming, if not the best. If you want to learn how to speak like a leader or learn nuances, listen and learn from Dutches confidence in the way he speaks. it will improve your speech massively.

I liked Dutch during the first playthrough until chapter 6. During my second playthrough, I started to see more through Dutch. Whenever he says, "we," "We will get where we are going," or "we need money." It more or less translates to "I need money" or I will get where I'm going.

[@Takaichi666-]

[@MeepmcarthurtheSECOND]

[@leolusanez5378]

People aren't talking about this much, so I thought I'd bring it up: you can also see Dutch's mental decline in the actual quality of his speeches (i.e, the words and turns of phrase he uses). At first he talks about ideals, principles, even peppers his speeches with intellectual arguments. Later on, it becomes a constant refrain of faith. After Chapter 6, when you can clearly see everyone not listening to him anymore, he's essentially reduced to blaming everyone for his problems. Even Micah's support doesn't bring him any comfort - while he listens to Dutch, he sits with his feet literally up on the table, as if he's taking Dutch's approval of him for granted. The one person listening to him is someone who doesn't even really see him as the leader he always was and it's eating away at him. From an eloquent leader of men to a rambling, incoherent shell. That's how low he fell. It's so sad to see everyone's respect for Dutch crumble so gradually and ever so surely in the story.

I think the beauty of Dutch’s character (and the writing) is the ambiguity of his character. Was he once good and tried to live up to the ideals he preaches before being driven unfortunately insane by the pressure and a head injury? Arthur seems to think so. On the other hand, he may have always been a self deluded con artist willing to murder and rob anyone who got in his way, which is what John seems to think by the end. Unless we see another prequel for RDR3, we’ll never truly know, it’s up to the audience to decide.

He was a robber, a thief and a killer though and he was not truth, he was not a man of his word but he came off very convincing as a man of truth, Faith and inspiration, too bad and very sad this poor man Dutch had fallen down hard and had become the very thing he taught his people to turn against
