Snitches get stitches [Red Dead Redemption - Part 26]

[@CrystalMorningdove]

What I'm gonna do when this series is over, I have NO idea. Thank you John!

[@Junnibee]

I know, this series made me really get into RDR2 and now it's like my current favorite thing. One of those games that you really don't want to finish because it's so good/fun.

Have a life? Maybe?

[@princessfetus]

maybe wait to see if john plays rdr1 lol

[@dw13645]

@@invay69ever heard of hyperbole. Wow.

[@H3rmon861]

35:00 It actually isn’t a glitch. They really aren’t buying his BS anymore when he makes a speech

[@girlpaintsworld]

I remember hearing people say that at 8:34, one of those chess moves is actually called the Dutch Defense or the Dutch variation which sacrifices all of the pieces to win. Dutch looooves to come off as a strategic and smart leader to the gang

[@princessfetus]

Molly being invisible to Dutch also made her invisible to Arthur. That's why I think Arthur never really commented on where Molly was. With evidence from the poem: Molly fell in love with Dutch and gave up her life for him thinking it was going to be some sort of fairytale. Only to end up ignored by the man she loved and in the wilderness away from home.

[@bugdomrulez]

love the moment you antagonize bill. it honestly seems like you threw so many insults at him that his brain shut down trying to comprehend any of them LOL

[@ntp4003]

That train track kill with Arthur shit talking that guy before he got ran over was PERFECT 😂

[@caitlinreuterskiold5828]

I'd like to think that Dutch heard Arthur coming, then began loudly reciting random chess moves as a show of his superior intellect.

[@alinajustme11]

The stag represents high honor Arthur

[@JWildberry]

Is there a different animal if he's low honor?

[@htefragile]

​@@JWildberry Yep

[@princessfetus]

Howdy John, +cowboy for remembering the hat.

[@toodleloos]

real dreadlocks aren't a lack of hygiene but the appropriated version - matting - is. anyway so glad you finally put someone on the train tracks lol. glad you're having fun. also John it's TOTALLY up to you but it's generally recommended you only meet the veteran (with buell) three times or less this chapter. totally your choice but i thought id let you know

[@ibby1295]

charles is a real one

[@kdobbs]

He has always been my favorite. You could tell from the start.

[@clayhair]

I’ve always loved that mission with Molly - the track is so haunting when the “Chapter 6” title screen pops up, gives me chills. Also check out the electric lantern again if you’re interested in wrapping up the Marko Dragic saga. You might notice that the light of the lantern changes color depending on the direction you’re facing. :)

[@fabiog9447]

Never saw a Bill roast like the one you pulled out at 35:50. A streak of antagonize lines so damn long feels like the game just broke😂

[@AbbaJoe26]

That bit, with the dominos player (well, theoretical, since you ran him off, due to his intransigence, heh) just reminded me how well you make AAA longplay video games' playthroughs into lots of little cute "presentations" of fun moments, there John Really appreciate your gift with improving and making things into even better things. You (and your efforts and gifts) are very much appreciated. Hope you and your family are having a good, merry/good christmas there. :)

[@Dark-tf9qy]

Ohh if John has a lot recorded in advance, I have to wonder if he's seen the ending yet. Can't wait to see the reaction there!

[@lollove7815]

Happy you did Charlotte’s story as many seem to miss it in first play through, merry Christmas 🎄

[@cheepytiger]

You've still got some time at this point, and it becomes fairly obvious when you're getting towards endgame. But as someone else said, you can still hunt and do optional things after if you accidentally miss out. :)

[@themerovingian7154]

29:19 It shows you are a man with honor. If it shows a wolf, it means your honor is low.

[@dw13645]

Is it a wolf or coyote?

[@moonexcess]

@@dw13645coyote!!

[@MODDED7]

Man what an adventure it's been watching you experience rdr2 for the first time. I remember playing this in 2019 and absolutely falling in love with everything it had to offer. Feels like a lifetime ago but thank you for reminding me how good pre covid was for me. If I had to guess I'd say around part 40 ish is where this will journey will come to an end.

[@fractiousjope]

Merry Christmas fellow shareholders!

[@JWildberry]

Merry Christmas!

[@amodelmannequin]

you still wash your hair when you grow out locs, at least humans do I can't speak for horses

[@bugdomrulez]

the sound of this game with headphones is sooo good. too bad i like playing rdo at the same time i watch these videos LOL

[@DACFalloutRanger]

John remembering the hat this time fills me with joy. Big plus cowboy.

[@BTSB7221]

I’m glad you notice the stag symbolism but I don’t want to spoil the significance! There’s so much symbolism in this game it’s incredible

[@Jamie-o6v]

I think the whole of Van Horn turned on you because you shot the guy three times, whereas typically you just shoot once in a duel. I think that's also why you lost honour.

[@sophiag7005]

I really hope John does some kind of “camp companion ranking” at the end of this, or at least some favorites and least favorites. I always like his thoughts on characterization after stories that merit it!

[@cheepytiger]

Another of my favourite Arthur snark sections in this with the prison guard. The back and forth about counting down and general exasperation while the guard falls apart had me in absolute stitches (no pun intended) the first time I saw it 😂

[@dw13645]

That little train/murphree interlude was so beautifully satisfying

[@frannyxfury42069]

1:52:32 subtle hint to notice the change in the electric lanterns light color 😅

[@Jamie-o6v]

23:30 "I know... yah.."

[@brabbit6262]

The stag mean you're high honor if you keep it up you'll get high honor outcome. John you can help Mrs. Downes, she is the stranger in Annesburg and only appear during night time.

[@JohnTwolfe]

I've completed the main game by now, and yes Mrs. Downs should be in the next video. I didn't miss any strangers...

[@maxfrog4]

Thank you John!

[@mikiwink]

Shires are sturdy. They're pretty slow but they are my favorite. The saddles in the stable aren't the good ones. You need to visit the trapper to find the saddles that have stats. You use legendary animal items and perfect skins to make them. Your comment on dreadlocks was...something... Dreadlocks done correctly are not gross. They are washed and taken care of like any hairstyle. Now, Northern California "dreadlocks" (think Humboldt County north) are mostly just unwashed and nasty. It's more matting from lack of washing and zero hair care. Source - I saw them up close when I went to college up there. Really it was gross.

[@clayhair]

YIPPEEE! Thank you, pardner 🤠

[@supersznycel7850]

The question of whether you believe Molly was an informant depends on whether you believe she hated the rest of the gang so much that she was willing to put them all in danger (including the women and Jack). The game just makes such a big fuss about who the rat is, and what, only for it to turn out to be Molly, who doesn’t really matter that much? But I don't know, I haven't finished the game myself yet :)

[@jasoncates2944]

If the horse were a car, John would drive into the driveway and continue all the way up to the door. Habitual yard parker lol

[@brodybazzini6729]

Just a heads up, there arent really any collectible cave drawings. I think you're thinking of when that guy asked you to find rock carvings. Theyre outside and are actual carvings on rocks, cliffs, mountains, etc.

[@anacsadder]

26:47 Didn't know Arthur was an indie horror protagonist.

[@Jamie-o6v]

You didn't bug it for Buell. You had to pat him until he was calm entirely. You pat twice and gave up. My biggest gripe with this game is how unclear some things are.

[@themerovingian7154]

7:15 No, it was talking about the legendary gator

[@Junnibee]

20:10 Charles made me giggle a bit

[@Figbarrrrrt]

If rdr2 were trailer park boys, Dutch would be Julian

[@arshellnut2730]

I understand the most likely reason is because the majority of the overall plot hinges on not having enough money for Dutch's gang to settle down, but it feels a bit ridiculous that Dutch always says "just need a couple thousand more..." when the player can be running around with literal thousands in their pocket. Arthur would definitely be the kind to fund the camp out of pocket because of his closeness to Dutch. But of course, being able to buy the game a happy ending would definitely require multiple endings; as I'm certain this is an old west tragedy, not a comedy.

[@David-yg8ls]

You need to go to the gunsmith at Saint Denise. You can spend your money on new guns you've unlocked. Get some gold plating and semi auto pistols. If you're eager to spend you can spend tho most there . Customize all your guns That said.. Roger Clark HATES IT WHEN YOU CALL HIM A VOICE ACTOR! HE IS NOT A VOICE ACTOR! THIS GAME WAS NOT DUBBED OVER. VERY INSULTINGN😂 ...

[@theroundestfrog7913]

John! You should play Balatro! Its a new poker rougelike and it's so addicting! I bet you would have a lot of fun and we would love to watch you play and actually for me to learn some poker rules 😅

[@frannyxfury42069]

Your second horse is still the one you stole outside van horn lol 31:43

[@mikari3498]

thank you so much!

[@trippalong77]

Dutch is for sure losing it 9:47

[@maskedmisfit364]

Another one! Here we go! BTW John the stag scenes have something to do with your honor level. You will see it again soon.

[@AbbaJoe26]

:) :) :) :) Look at the natural grin on John........as he gets to drive a train :D Totally get it! heh heh Kinda cool the game devs thought to make sure to give that inclusive distribution of experientials within the games overall cavalcade of moments/modes. Top marks to them.

[@pancakeclaper1021]

I don't think you did the duel wrong, it's just that all the npc's in van horn are really chaotic because there's no law there

[@antoblac3851]

Yeah, you’re not doing the duel mechanic right so I don’t think it registered as a duel. The game should have shown a tutorial the first time dueling came up. You’re supposed to lightly hold the trigger or something to initiate it.

[@82566]

Merry Christmas !!! + 🤠🐎

[@jamesonharwood6310]

Please attempt to get Arthur back into Blackwater 🙂

[@thefailbender]

Got this phone notification and I know EXACTLY what it’s referring to without even watching lmao

[@BexTheBoo388]

Is it crazy to think that Dutch has been going nuts after he got a concussion from the failed trolley robbery? Like I feel like he literally got a brain injury. Ever since then he's been so aggro/ rude with everyone. Killed Angelo Bronte as pure revenge. Killed the old lady in Guarma. I feel like he was mostly neutral as a leader in Guarma because it was life or death though. But definitely ever since everyone got back he's been off his rocker. They all went through something very traumatic in Guarma though so in a way its understandable buuut... Dutch has been VERY off his rocker. I'm curious to see what plans he makes next! AND pressure and tensions are very very high in camp now, I'm curious how long their new camp lasts. I do also believe Molly's confession, liiiike that's not something you joke about and she wasn't shown to be someone who would lie/joke about something like that. What will be the next thing to tear the group apart? I'm very curious to see how the story ends!

[@henrygreene1821]

You not played the game yourself? I find that very cool if not because John's doing an unbelievable job of showcasing almost everything this game has to offer for first time experiences!

[@themerovingian7154]

Guys is 75° for my gpu safe during playing heavy games?

[@wishywoshua]

GPUs automatically limit their power when they get too hot so it's really not a problem until it starts affecting your performance. but yeah 75 is perfectly fine for a heavy load, that's really normal. even up to 80-85 is okay for a bit if it's a super heavy load but you don't want it to stay in the 80s all the time or the card's lifetime might get reduced. if your case has good and proper airflow for the internals then you should never have to worry about temperature in the future.

[@trippalong77]

Let’s freaking gooo!

[@rocketmann6963]

John.. just to freshen things up a bit.. a quick biography about the van der linde gang. Coz a lot of people skipped a dialog from micah back when the gang was camping near saint denis.. and this is information is that important to the story. So.. all of the van der linde gang members were all saved by dutch before they joined the gang.. they all see dutch as their leader, and they all owe their lives to him.. all of em were saved by dutch.. except for micah.. apparently its the exact opposite. Before joining the gang, Micah saved dutch’s life, so dutch asked him to join the gang.. that’s why dutch trusted micah the most

biggest mystery in RDR2: the curious case of the stag

[@cheepytiger]

and the immortal book seller 😂

[@charlieconde3560]

Definitely a game where you need to make sure you ride your favourite horse for the final mission

[@mulattice3703]

You can still hunt and do optional stuff after "the end," so no worries about feeling like you have to rush a hunting episode. You're about 70-80% of the way there I'd say. You're about to get to the juiciest stuff, I reckon.

My goodness John your spoiling us!🫶🏽
