He did good because he genuinely wanted to help others as much he could becuz he had little time left and was soon going to DIE, and leave this world/life he cherished so much. Not because he thought he was going to Hell. The afterlife is uncertain for him as much as it is for anyone. His path and intention was more self-transcendent than meets the eye

[@wukanimation]

I think Arthur realized here their excuses to rob and kill were just that: excuses to rob and kill. They never turned into anything new. Their values weren’t being lost to insanity. It’s what they always were. And it has always left only sadness in their wake.

[@Rougeification]

"It was just an excuse, we all knew it." - John Marston, upon jailing Javier Escuella in Redemption I.

[@StuartLugsden]

Arthur knew it was all an excuse at the beginning of the game. In his journal he writes about how they planned on buying a ranch but Dutch kept putting it off calming the law was watching them. And just before they robbed Cornwall’s train he writes in his journal “Knowing Dutch those plans involve robbing and killing” which shows that he knows Dutch can't settle down and his "plans" involve the exact same thing with no change and no end. Arthur just kept justifying his actions as not having enough money for all of them but it was only until he got sick and started seeing things differently did he finally stop lying to himself.

[@MrSchplingle79]

I think there was some reason to it, you can read old newspaper scraps about the gang robbing a bank and throwing gold and silver to the poor, and Dutch and Hosea talk about the early days where they only did what they needed to survive. Those values were still there in some ways for a while, right up until Blackwater

[@ghekor]

Dutch had a good start with his Robin Hood ways, but then he slowly went on the deep end and instead started taking from both rich and poor more or less. By the time of Blackwater it was already too late for change sadly having grown up in the game Arthur was just too loyal to say fck it and have him and John leave

[@planescaped]

@@Rougeification John flat out says to Javier that they weren't good times, and they were just bad people. Man, if they ever remake RDR1, they could make it even better having RDR2 now to build off of... As in RDR1 a lot of the backstory is left incredibly vague, for obvious reasons.

Sure the circumstances and actions of individuals led to that moment, but no-one knew Downes was ill with TB (Strauss makes the vague allusion to it in mention Downes' passing to Arthur).

This goes to show that Arthur fell into the wrong gang… And also how much a good heart he has.

[@Ethan98d]

Man I really liked Arthur too such a brilliant man yes his past was sick but after all that he wanted to turn his life around but Strauss had to make Arthur have this horrible disease and watch his life end soon 😭

[@alaricdelano8159]

Strauss didn't force Arthur to collect the debts,nor did he make him have a disease.Arthur made choices these choices led him down the path if it weren't for the disease Arthur wouldn't have made the changes he did.

[@junehollybell5977]

@@alaricdelano8159 Idk about that i'd argue the disease was more of a jump start I think either way Arthur would eventually realize what Dutch was doing especially since he ALWAYS hated Micha.

The expression on face of Arthur is so realistic it's like actual real life character in this cutscene I've seen very few games with such realistic facial expression

The voice actor for Arthur is brilliant, I've never heard an apology so genuine before

Man the love, care, and detail poured into this character is simply miraculous.. not to mention Roger Clarke's phenomenal performance. One of gamings all time greats.

Arthur's wife and son died the same way for only 10 bucks. That's why Arthur feels so guilty about this.

[@MrHarpguitarist]

This game has me feeling all sorts of emotions. Arthur is one of my favorite protagonists in a game now. He's a good man who just got dealt a shitty hand in life and fell in with the wrong crowd.

[@scrambledeggsandcrispybaco2070]

definitely the saddest scene, when he apologises you can feel his emotions. even if he was a fictional character I still believed he was real somewhere. I guess the true meaning of life is to just help people. Just make the good deeds happen and it will all come back to you

[@Mardello]

I thought this was the best scene in the whole game. The voice acting and animation is excellent. Really struck me!

[@MetalCharlo]

Arthur realized it way too late. And he was himself part of the problem big time without even realizing it too. It hits home because Arthur is a lot like folks like me who didn't knew they were doing something wrong at first.

[@BluXrCist]

Arthur's face as he says "I'm sorry ma'am" really hit me hard. You can tell he is truly sorry.

[@Ornoob-]

The transition from a major jerk killing and hurting people without even a whimper to genuinely caring about the people that he ruined the lives of is so seamless and grounded in reality it is horrifying. One of the many reasons I love Arthur as a character so much is that this transition will happen to any one of us when we know that our life is gonna end soon. We all live our life in complete disregard of the lives of others, would that still be the case if we could count the number of days we have on our fingers?

[@Mr._Meme279]

Hearing the pain in his voice every time he says he's sorry....god damn that hurts. He realises he's been leading the wrong life, he knows damn well he ain't a good man but he's gonna do as much as he can to make things right with what little time he has left. He's not a good man, no, but he's got a golden heart.

[@XXXTENTAClON227]

“There’s nothing left mister” “Well I see a child 🤔 how much he worth to ya”

See what makes this scene truly perfect is Arthur sees himself in this situation he once had a wife and son and died when he wasn’t around and he meets another man’s family who name he shares which I feel like he can relate to

[@moderndaysentertainment2.065]

What I got from this is that Arthur seen the lady’s son , that he had lost & he’s seeing life differently it’s just the other way around with Arthur being dead & his wife being a window raising her child . He can relate to her life. “Arthur’s dead” was an eye opener cause he too is an Arthur & wish he had what he lost so he also felt bad

[@jgamer2228]

I like Arthur. He’s probably one of my favorite video game protagonists ever, but he knew damn well what he was doing. Eventually growing a conscious does not absolve him of anything. Let’s not pretend that he’s anything less than a robbing, murdering outlaw shall we?

[@mtransport-u3q]

Then you missed the point of the story

[@sftheletters]

I think you missed the point of the story. For starters, you have to give context into why Arthur was an outlaw to begin with. He was an orphan raised by outlaws, he was bread to be an outlaw. It was the only thing he knew. He never blamed anyone else for being an outlaw, getting TB or facing his own death, he knew his actions caused it. And he was never looking to be absolved, the whole point of his story is doing good with the little time he had left and giving others a better path - John, Sadie, Jack, Abigail, etc than what he had.

[@EnderalRocks]

Despite being kicked out for good reason, he stayed loyal and kept his mouth shut. Horrible person, but loyal.

[@lean6546]

Loyalty isnt everything, the definition "Horrible person, but loyal" could also apply to Arthur before he got TB, and he deeply regrets that part of his life

This contrasts Arthur's life if u think about it. Both his wife and son are dead and in this scene the mother and her boy don't have their husband/father who's also named Arthur. This is arthur realizing he killed himself along time ago.
