Thanks so much for watching! This took far longer than I anticipated, but there was a lot of information that was crucial to get right, so I'm glad I took the time to do so. With the six main story chapters done, let's reflect: what was your favourite and why? I think I have a four-way tie (at least) so I'd love to know your thoughts.

Thanks for uploading. I always like your videos, You put so much effort into them. On another note, it’s such a shame how the governments treated the native Americans. I hope there are reparations made in the future. The Native American genocide is easily the worst crime in human history.

My grandma was Yaqui and she had some stories about this time period. She was born in 1918 and her mom in 1882. Her mom was the last link to our people before leaving the Tribe. My grandma despite being Yaqui, able to speak it, & retaining cultural knowledge, lost a lot from that. As a kid she got sent to Mission school with her cousins who were different Indians. And then when her mom died my grandma got kidnapped in the “Mexican Repatriation”. Yaquis land was both in Mexico and the US so many Yaquis were also Mexican in nationality, some even speaking Spanish. Not my grandma tho & she wound up in an orphanage where she took care of kids. This was a dark and messed up thing that happened but if it hadn’t, she wouldn’t have fallen in love with the brother of the orphanages owner, my Mexican grandfather. She was proud to be Mexican and she was through her father. But my grandma was also proud of being Native. It was just sad though that her kids never learned the language because it was more advantageous to learn Spanish and English. And she was an expert with herbs and medicine, always picking stray weeds to make it into something. And she could fight, her mom taught her. I get sad sometimes when I think about her and when I remember that this horrific history is also my history.

A couple of notes too from a Canadian perspective. Indians in Canada are legally called "First Nations" now. And Canada too had boarding schools for First Nation's as well called "Residential Schools", the last one closing in 1996 in the province of Saskatchewan.

Yeah I got real confused when he didnt call them First Nations. Its actually in the US and a bit all over Latin America where the term Indian or Indio is retained. Legally on a lot of paper work and official nomenclature many Tribes across the USA are called “American Indians”. And if you speak to them they will say they prefer being called Indians. And it makes sense, cause its been in use for several centuries now. Longer than when the nation state of India existed.

The sniper rifle being used by Arthur is a VERY anachronistic Carcano M38 carbine (the same gun used to kill JFK), it would’ve been more accurate to see the original M91 Carcano or a similar Mauser pattern rifle.
@andreivaldez2929
@andreivaldez2929 2 жыл бұрын
It's obviously a Carcano that had a scope fixed on as a custom piece. People have been doing that for a while; Rockstar calling it, and treating it, as a sniper rifle is kind of dumb, but they did it to just fit more modern conventions in gameplay than trying to keep it accurate in its portrayal.

Chapter 5 has always been my favorite, at least in terms of Red Dead Redemption 2's story. The fifth chapter is when our two leads, Arthur and Dutch, truly begin to show their true selves, with Hosea's death and the failed bank robbery in Saint Denis being the perfect storm (or I guess the storm being the one that shipwrecks them). Also the civil war aspect on Guarma is a ton of fun to play.

I come from the Chinook, Flathead, and Kumeyaay tribe. Seeing indigenous culture acknowledged in a game, with videos like this to acknowledge our history is beautiful. Many people who play the online part of the game with no idea what it means to be native, no knowledge of the real history pretend to be native. These people have no idea the atrocities we suffered at the hands of boarding schools, colonization, injustices and more. I hope this video breaks this cycle of ignorant online players pretending to be of indigenous descent, and I hope they learn of our real history instead of a John Wayne movie.

My guy, as much as I'm obviously on your side regarding the atrocities committed to your people, you were tribals in a world which was developing consumerism, capitalism and corporate greed. If you like to think that you could've been spared the whole genocide part that's fine, but you would have never kept your land, you would've never been left alone to leave in a reservoir and you would've never been allowed to be a group of tribal people. Progress wouldn't have stopped because of one culture that couldn't even defend itself. And you weren't the first nor the last. What was done to you was, and still is, terrible, but it's not uncommon, so don't feel like you're the only ones in the world to get that treatment. You were people out of time in a world that didn't need you anymore. You had two choices, get lost to time or modernize yourselves, and unfortunately none of those choices was a good one, but that's how society works.

This is easily my favorite channel on KZbin now, and one of the few ones where I'm looking forward to each and every video you upload. And I'm so happy you finally got the time to really talk about the poor natives and the terrible physical, medical and even sexual abuse they were subjected to. Thank you for all these high quality productions. These deep historical dives you take into my favorite period of history are amazing. Love your use of the best RDR(2) scores, it always fits so perfectly. If I wasn't a poor student I'd definitely donate to your Patreon for all these videos, especially if it means that you continue making these for the epilogue and potentially RDR.

I really appreciate the sensitivity you bring to your discussion of historical atrocities. I was especially grateful for how you addressed the Indian Boarding Schools in the US (and Canada). I'm a white guy of European descent, but I actually live on the ancestral lands of the Puyallup people, and while unaffiliated with the tribe, the college where I teach is named for the Puyallup. One of my colleagues is descended from a man who was forced to attend the Carlise school; she just gave a presentation on that history at a faculty event a couple days ago. So while I've been growing more familiar with this history (for several years now, I've been assigning excerpts from Zitkala-Ša's 1921 memoir, American Indian Stories, in my writing courses), it still surprised me to see references to both the Puyallup Indian School and the Carlise Indian School in your video. Again, I'm deeply grateful for how you handled that history here.

I love the use of Etymology in these videos. How we speak evolves with values, what was scene, and appreciated at different times. So when making even historical games, making them speak more "modern" can be a bit strange. Sometimes, even though it's the very same language, it might not make sense to us due to dialects, and even chronology. It's hard to capture the spirit of an era, takes a lot of research. Even learning new languages can be tricky because little colloquialisms, but as you learn them, you start to understand how other people think.

21:13 is very interesting point and Parallels between reality vs romanize fiction. I can imagine a historian talking about the infamous Dutch Vanderlinde gang and how they we’re fighting against the rich and helping the poor. I could see some people wanting to romanize Dutch as a hero of the old and dying west and as a outlaw who wanted to help his people. But all that historians would have to do is simply look a little closer to see that Dutch was anything but a robin hood. They would take into account all of their failed robbery attempt and the innocent people that were caught in the crossfire. Or how Dutch murdered an innocent girl in Blackwater for no reason whatsoever. it’s so interesting to think Dutch might be mentioned in fictional historical America but also quite unsettling to think that just as big and bad Dutch was to the United States in 18 century, he would easy be forgotten as just another folklore story about a man trying to be something he’s not.

on the matter of cordite, around the 7:50 mark, i have to add onto this. Not only is Dutch quite Well Read, He is also quite well connected, there are at least 2 Brits he is close to (Young buck Sean, and Josiah Trelawny.) so it isnt out of the question that he'd heard from them about the Cordite, and possibly even gotten some illegally smuggled to him for a job in the previous 10 years of development Nothing iron clad but it would make some nice sense instead of thinking of it as an accident

Good point! Both Trelawny and Sean seem like people who would make that same reference, so I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s who Dutch learned it from.

I’m part at least part American Indian and spent a lot of time as a child in Cherokee NC to learn the history, culture, and language of my ancestors. Being called Indian wasn’t ever seen as something to be ashamed of, it was something to be proud of! Even though it’s been many years since I’ve been back to the reservation I still see the people here as my family and I will always supported and defend them with my life. Edit: The book you’re reading from isn’t about the civil war. It’s about the Cherokee massacre which was known as the removal act. My ancestors learned English, had a functioning government, became Christian, lived as the white man with farms and even had a newspaper! None of this was enough and they were removed by force from their capital in Northern Georgia. Some fled to the mountains and some intermarried with Scottish settlers who were also treated like trash at the time and found a kingship with the Cherokee. During the Civil war these men fought for the Confederate States. Far too quickly people forget what the American government did, not the Confederacy to native peoples!

Again, a splendidly informative and entertaining video. The end of Arthur's journey is moving, heartbreaking, even, and I appreciate the way it was presented here. Otherwise; I have been interested in history all my life, and especially the real history behind what is called "the Wild West". But still, Real Pixels uncovers a LOT of facts of which I had no knowledge of whatsoever. Looking forward to the next video, but this was of course a milestone. Great job!

My favourite mission in this chapter is The Fine Art of Conversation. Arthur confesses that he’s scared to Sister Calderon and she tells him that he should help someone and he applies that advice working tirelessly to save John. Arthur saves Captain Monroe a and Rains Fall is one of my favourite characters in the game. He is really important in Arthur’s quest to redeem himself.

27:25 "Equivalent to about 1.5 million dollars today, seems they have enough money for Tahiti after all." The game's money is not accurate to the time period, a C-96 Mauser would have cost $35 in real life 1899 but costs a whopping $250.00 in-game, indicating that the value of the money in the cave could be worth less than 1/7th the value when factoring for inflation. That would mean Dutch would only have just enough to escape to Tahiti after so many gang members have died or abandoned the cause.

You always do an amazing job on your videos and editing of them. Hats off to you for the superb work. I wish I was that good, but the various editing programs today just confuse me more with all the features than help me in the long run. As for the subject of this one, it will forever disgust me how our ancestors treated the Native Americans and their culture, all because of mostly screwed religious ideals. These people were here before the white man arrived and deserved to be respected, not stomped low or killed, and our government has never stopped treating them like dirt ever since. I love the Native Americans and their heritage, so it is always difficult to hear about their tortured history by our forefathers. It makes me wanted to time travel back and set the ways right, hopefully creating a better future. BTW, I'd stop looking at that piece of crap Christopher Columbus as the founder of America (he landed in the Bahamas) considering the fact that so many other cultures (Viking, Irish, Spanish before Columbus, Chinese, South Pacific Islanders, Incas, possibly even Egyptians, etc.) all came and left their marks here way before his diseased butt brought plagues to the New World.

Dutch knowing about Cordite makes absolute sense. During the 1890s, America themselves were busy playing catch-up to the Europeans after they swiped the "best gunmakers" title off America by introducing new repeating arms quicker than the Americans themselves and the 1st new rifle that introduced this thing called "Cordite" was the French 1886 Lebel rifle which was chambered in the new smokeless powder (Which was basically cordite) and soon everyone was playing catch-up to them and even the US Military caught wind of this new thing. Thus out to purchase new rifles that could take this powder already happened back in 1891 and by 1892, a competition was set for the procurement board on what rifles to get and the competing ones were the Lee, Schmidt-Rubin, Krag-Jorgenson, Mannlicher and even Mauser but ultimately, in that competition, the Krag won which became the US 1st smokeless/cordite bolt-action rifle which was then coded as the M1892 Springfield. Then the cavalry version would be introduced which made its name again in 1898 during the Spanish-American War and by this time, cordite powder powers everything the US used from it's rifles and even it's breach-loading cannons and same goes to the Spanish forces going against the US in Cuba. Considering the same events happening in RDR2 like if the Spanish-American War did happen, then it's totally not a fluke that Dutch knew about cordite at all because basically it's already been used by the military for at least a 8 years by the time it was 1899 and also, somehow, Arthur can get a Carcano rifle (Albeit an anachronistic version in the game with it being the M1891/38 variant which, as the name suggest, fires the 7.5mm Carcano and designed in 1938, 4 decades after the events of RDR2) and even Bill was using the same Krag rifle he used during his time in service which was also firing cordite powdered rounds.
