The shot of the whole gang walking up towards the manor in a line is easily the most iconic image of the whole game. This mission is on of the top 3 at very least.

[@Cilent__]

It's either that or the shot of Arthur on the oil wagon stopping the train to me personally

[@bryanhall1548]

I agree, brother! All the best male gunslingers arriving en masse, the dialogue exchanges between Dutch’s Boys and Braithwaites is simply flawless, and the mission’s conclusion, is agreeably the gang at their peak.

[@Wemzii0]

“My Last Boy” when they are riding into the oil field down the hill is badass and my personal favorite

[@SoundsTheillest]

is that scene from a movie?

[@jacklikesfries3836]

Thats why its my pc wallpaper lol

[@Jackfirecracker]

Pouring Forth Oil Part 4 is amazing just due to the cinematography of the train rolling past the gang in the woods and the epic shot of Arthur on top of the wagon with the repeater

[@wizzykms]

it’s an almost exact recreation of the scene in the assassination of jessie james i believe

[@keshonhend2047]

@@wizzykms It’s almost identical. Spotlight through trees, POV shot of the front of the train “pushing” the camera, the man standing on top of the block. It is very obviously an intentional homage to that masterpiece of a film.

Favourite mission I couldn't say, but my favourite scene is the one where you return from Guarma, and ride back to Shady Bell. That scene always gets a lump in my throat, even hearing the musing (have it on Spotify) can bring me to tears. I always try to extend that ride: Arthur is sick, tired and dejected so he isn't able to maintain a constant gallop.

I remember playing this mission for tyhe first time and I felt like a kid in my own family had been kidnapped. Especially after Shawn had been killed I was just filled with 'righteous anger' and I loved it.

[@user-om2fg7yh6s]

Yeah couldn’t agree more, Chapter 3/Clements Point was the best part of the game for me. I loved that camp how it was right next to the lake, the sunsets you got there were incredible. It’s also the last time in the game where everyone is alive and in good spirits and Dutch is still somewhat sane. Just the general summery southern feel in this chapter was awesome.

[@jonathanmendez310]

Im replaying the game and at the cabin in the mountains and i smiled when Dutch made the speech but made me a bit sad. I actually love Dutch alot being so charismatic caring about his people and putting the gangs needs over his own. Chapter 4and onwards is where it becomes sadder with Dutch decent into madness and Micah that prick being the devil on his shoulder pushing him to do awful things. Maybe Dutch was always like this but having Micah and him being the rat made everything worse as I feel like everyone ignores Dutch plans can an do work an the bank heist could have worked but Micah being the rat after wards. Idk once I get to valentine im just going to take my time exploring the world again and doing missions for the groups and side events till i have to move on

[@lyvinlyphe9644]

Only scene that can compete is the end when Arthur says thank you to the horse, then tells John “get the hell outta here and be a god damn man”. I don’t think that scene is better unless you count the whole scene sequence to the end when he dies, but it was powerful and full of emotion.

[@gemini8590]

I love Clemens Point. My favorite spot. Waterfront property with beautiful views and fishing. Everyone in the gang is all there too and if you wish, you can leave Micah in jail till your ready to go get him.

[@jackdavidson9468]

Valentine is the best town, but Clemens Point has the best camp. Used to love fishing on the lake.

[@FlaremoonDarkhooves]

My favorite mission is the Saint Denis bank robbery. Not only is it a pivotal moment in the story, with the gang's plans failing once again and both Hosea and Lenny (two characters that Arthur cared about a lot) getting killed, and also what made the gang have to escape and end up in Guarma (which would probably be my 1st or 2nd favorite chapter if it was longer and the island was actually explorable), but the gameplay is just fantastic. I love the bank shootout, and even though I've replayed the mission countless times, I still feel on edge during the escape part, like I could be detected by the guards at any moment if I make one small mistake, even when I know their routes like the back of my hand. Overall, a very good mission

[@megapeebs2631]

Oddly enough the first time I saw the Kkk was around Big Valley in chapter 2 when I was hunting Cougers

[@mjolden]

I loved Clemens Point as well, chapters 3 & 4 are easily my favorites out of the entire game.

[@sebs31]

imo chapter 5 is the best literally put me so on edge the first time i got to guarma because i was like "whats wrong with Arthur why are his eyes bloodshot and his face so red??" then when i got to the doctor meeting i realized what is was..

[@bigboy7532]

i most def feel like the most iconic mission was the bank robbery with hosea was murdered by the pinkertons in front of the bank which really in my opinion started the turmoil of the gang

[@nickalexcage]

Horseshoe overlook for me, Arthur is in his prime, both physically and in terms of respect. As the story progresses his authority becomes questioned, by the rat, by Bill as soon in the dynamite mission, it was a subconscious jab at Arthur when he suggested he play dead. Arthur was in control of his destiny in chapter 2, he was the backbone of the gang. The thread that help everything together, it’s a wonder how they did anything without Arthur. I am very disappointed with how RDR 2 ended because fundamentally it is not believable, there’s no instance when a gang such as Dutch’s gang would accept a newcomer as a second in command.

"A short walk in a pretty town" is an underrated mission. The music, the dialogue, the intensity. It was so unexpected and I loved the part where Micah was talking to Sheriff Gray. Blood Fueds Ancient and Modern was an amazing mission, but a Short Walk in a Pretty Town is just as amazing. RIP Sean 🙏 .

[@ariature]

A short walk in a pretty town had my jaw dropped. It was so scarily out of nowhere and had me on edge for the rest of my playthrough, constantly reminding me that Rockstar would happily kill or do anything in the story.

[@LUNARBL00M]

@ariature I feel like Sean's death was a reminder that Dutch wasn't as smart as he thought he was, and that his mistakes will lead to lives being lost.

[@ezequielsarcos207]

The camp itself is the prettiest camp in the whole game. Foggy environment, sunsets look beautiful especially on the lake which makes the rays of sun pierce through the trees it's just beautiful.

[@Jackfirecracker]

It is great but horseshoe overlook has its charms as well. Every camp after is just a bummer

[@tommym6515]

How was a New South looked over? That’s such an endearing mission. Seeing the love and banter between Dutch, Hosea and Arthur is very unique.

[@siimtokke3461]

I wish that there would have been a decision that the player could make after the 2:03 scene. Basically three paths forward: 1. Side with Gray's and Jack still gets kidnapped but Sean survives since there isn't a shooting at Rhoads; 2. Side with Braithwaite's and Sean will die but Jack doesn't get kidnapped and Bronte is introduced in more friendly circumstances; 3. Play both sides (as is the story) and Sean will die and Jack gets kidnapped.

[@CrazyTrainEnjoyer]

I fuck with this idea ALOT, but RDR2's whole thing is that you can't really save anyone so Sean being the exception would be weird, but make a few more deaths avoidable and that's a great idea honestly

[@siimtokke3461]

@@CrazyTrainEnjoyerI meant that Sean would survive past Rhoads, but during Shady Bell, he could be part of the distraction team with Hosea and Abigail and he dies there. I didn't mean that Sean would 100% survive the gang. But in general, I would want more player decisions. For example, after the whole fuck up in Rhoads there could be an option for Arthur to "start a stash" where the player can save money. This would be in the wain of "gang" savings but for Arthur which will turn into the money that John can dig up in the Epilogue. Also, after Dutch kills Bronte maybe there is an option for Arthur to "leave" (meaning he becomes less active in his gang role) the gang and this could lead to the possibility of why the Bank Heist went wrong. But in turn, this allows seeing how Sadie helped the gang to leave Shady Bell. Plus the whole Guarma chapter would be completely different.

@@siimtokke3461 Youre cooking rn

No, RDR 2 does not and should not have functioned like an rpg, it would detract from the story.

[@siimtokke3461]

@@channel45853I get what you are saying, but RDR 2 already has a slight disconnect between the story and gameplay. In the Beaver Hollow chapter, Dutch asks Cornwall for 10k, a boat, and a safe passage out while Arthur (who in my gameplays has 10k+ in his satchel) stands next to him. Dutch says "We need more money" while Arthur is rolling in money. You can look at videos on YT where people use cheats to give camp 10 mil or even more and Dutch still ask for more money. So adding more RPG elements wouldn't be too bad.

[@Havøc_Varangian]

Horseshoe Overlook is probably my favorite camp and with Arthur being healthy it makes it one of my favorite places to hang out and explore the map as much it allows me too haha. I do really enjoy Rhodes too though and I love Clemens Point as well! This was a good video man. Skål 🍻

[@partlycloudy9443]

Yes!! Blood feuds is absolutely my favorite mission. That ride up to the mansion along that tree lined road with that score popping off in the background just feels badazz. Chapter 3 and 6 are my favorite chapters.

[@jektonoporkins5025]

On my second playthrough I decided that I was going to 100% the game. I had just completed the Weapons Expert Challenge 5 challenge by aggro-ing five random people on horses (did it in the desolate Heartlands as to not get caught) and then weapons challenge 6 popped up. Kill four enemies using a single stick of dynamite. At this point it was nighttime in game so I thought "Aight, let's go back to camp at Clemens Point, go to bed, and then think about how we're gonna do this." Then on my way through Lemoyne I saw the KKK having a meeting. I thought, "Hmmmmm." Threw a stick of dynamite in there, killed way more than 4 people, completed the challenge, and got an honor boost. Paused the game, sat back in my recliner, and just laughed for a good minute.

[@Soma-vd3lp]

For me my favorite missions are Blood Feuds, A short walk in a pretty town, the Saint Denis bank heist, the valentine bank heist, and American Venom. And yes the pattern is all of these are very action oriented. But it’s just the way the action is presented that makes it so special. Blood feuds with the amazing score and cinematography. A short walk with the unexpected death of Sean and the fire fight that ensues. The Valentine bank build up with talking to everyone otw, getting to know them better before you get there and bust through the doors and the intensity goes from a 2 to 10. And depending how long you take with cracking the vaults if the law show up or not, or if you blow them up and want them to know and shoot your way out. The Saint Denis bank robbery with all the build up, everyone is there, just like with blood feuds, Hoseas death, Lenny’s death. It’s all so good. And American venom being the perfect end off with killing Micah and John fighting his way through multiple waves of his men just to get his revenge for Arthur. God this game is so good

Blood Feuds, Ancient and Modern, is hands down the gang at their peak.

Dont get me wrong, blood fueds is one of my favourite missions for similiar reasons you listed here, but I dunno, I'm a little taken aback by how the focus on how badass it all is. Yes, the Braithewaites aren't great people. They did kidnap Jack, but they absolutely didn't start it. Dutch dragging this woman into the dirt after destroying her house and killing her sons is really disturbing. It's clear they were holding Jack as bargaining chip. Hell, he was safer and better fed than his entire time on the run with the gang. I understand the high emotions at play, but I don't think you're supposed to finish this mission in awe of how cool it all is. The dark backdrop, the shaded silhouettes of the gang in the moonlight, the high, haunting crooked melody being sung... I was kind of sickened by how brutal it all is and this mission is supposed highlight that savage side of the gang, imo

Hopefully i can pace myself and catch more. But on that note have you ever caught Ms Grimshaw yelling at dutch in chapter 6 only for him to get in her face and she backs down?

I actually think the Grays and the Braithewaite hold more importance to the plot than most people would think. In my opinion it was the beginning of the end. Dutch came strolling high and mighty thinking he was scamming and manipulating them from the beginning. Insulting them when their back is turned and loudly stating he thinks they're trash. Dutch underestimated them just like he did with the Pinkertons and everyone else he views as less intelligent than him. That is how Bronte was able to play him like a fiddle because bronte was the exact opposite of the grays and Braithewaite, Dutch tried to get on his good side. Hosea on the other hand was a lot more cautious and suspicious of them yet he still tried his best to play them for information on their gold. I just find it ironic that in the End it was a dying Arthur who got the treasure to help 2 kids in love

Agreed, That ride up to the manor along that tree lined road with that amazing score popping off in the background just gives me chills.

[@lukeofmary5704]

Chapter 3 is the most iconic, I agree, but chapter 4 is the most decisive, and the bank robbery missioni is the most adrenalinic mission in the entire game: the tension is high and ask yourself how could we get to this and what will happen to the gang

[@Takaichi666-]

Micah should have bein there when they took on the beaithwaites he would have bein perfect but I guess leave one of your best gunman at the camp

[@joshuatremper5026]

All missions in chapters 2,3,4, are absolutely awsome. Chapter 5 is also good but the ending is very sad after Lenny and Hosea were killed

[@markmagician2471]

The mission where you attack Bronte was my favorite

[@brennanhughes976]

Me scrolling past this video then onto it because I just got into Rhodes with Dutch😂😂😂😂 what a world

[@braxtonthomas9916]

I don’t care how people feel about Dutch I wanna play as him so bad in rdr3 this man quick draw headshots the dude in the middle then the guy in the top left balcony this man must’ve been the most wicked man when he first started the gang

[@king_crimson9462]

can someone plz tell me what the song in the background in the first part of this i’ve been looking all over and can’t find the name

[@nam6282]

my favorite is Saint Denis, although Beaver Hollow comes close second

[@Bigmoneymemes]

1 my last boy 2 Pouring Forth Oil 3 Blood Feuds is my top 3

[@youenjoymystash2702]

Always look forward to your RDR2 drops! I give you permission to dabble elsewhere, as long as you keep these coming on the reg!! 😉 🙏🏼

[@vanrivan6028]

my second playthrough arthur is stuck at chapter 3 clements point. and always will be

[@GuyInWalls]

my top 3 is red dead redemption, American venom then blood feuds.

[@ThinkLikeAHorse.]

I never spend enough time in this chapter. I plan to linger there longer during my next play through.

[@TomatoMan90]

i just saw the thumbnail, i was like 'bro same' and then continued to watch the entire video without having any real interest in it.

[@CynicGTA]

About sums up my time on youtube lol

[@TomatoMan90]

@@CynicGTA lmao

[@neonflashsparkotron5435]

This is also my favorite. The missions are just amazing and memorable!

[@nickbuckley4371]

Blood feuds ancient and modern is peak gaming for me

[@andycockrum1212]

2-4 are the best chapters without a doubt

[@Noiretragedy]

You just made my morning

[@TPFB129]

My favorite parts of the game are the inbetweens of chapters 2-3 and early 4 to early 6.

[@Fizzlander]

Personally I don't see what everybody likes with the chapter I hated it

[@Fizzlander]

Last two missions are In Top 5 though

[@Madmij]

If only you could take the deputy badge off it would be perfect

[@MediaWML]

You can. Make sure you have saved outfits on your horse before you start the mission where you get the badge (American Distillation mission). Immediately after the cutscene where you first get the badge, change the outfit from your horse, then after the next cutscene you get it again, mission is over. Change the outfit again so that the badge is removed , save your game, done. Once you know you have an outfit with no badge, use that outfit as a template to make new outfits as needed. It's been a while since I did it so I can't remember exactly, but it definitely works. Just remember to switch outfits after any cutscene if the badge is equipped/re-equipped. If you can't get it to work then let me know and I'll open up an old save and confirm the process. I just wish I could also avoid the whole "no weapons" in Rhodes.

[@HamidHamimid77]

Chapter III has an insane Django vibe

[@SeraneTifineCLN]

Dawg the Braithwaite Manor Siege is the best scene in any video game ever. Makes my Johnson a little excited.

[@Lil.Double762]

Dutch

[@cosmicknight4665]

The cinematic camera ruined the scene💀

[@SnubNosedSniper]

My favorite chapter has to be Beaver Hallow. The end of the story us always the best in my opinion. To see Arthur confron Dutch and Micah and the surprise return of John made it worth while and the final act of sacrifice always gets me. "Now go and be a G**D*** man!"

[@codylockx3795]

Great video my friend. I love this game and it will always be my comfort game with my many play throughs. Love chapter 3. I stay in the area and venture out west only briefly for the side missions that take me there. Oh and ALWAYS use the shotgun in the manor ! Feel badass.

[@Aydrian..]

My favorite chapter is chapter 3

[@Cartoon_Cartoon187]

Nah the ride to the Braithwaite Manor and the walk up to that house was super sick but yes I agree this is most definetly the climax of the game cus right after that was the beginning of the down fall of the gang when they got involved with Bronte

[@pedrooliveira8463]

Still look for Gavin ... XD

[@Yardcourt]

I've only recently completed RDR2 and after watching this I immediately want to go back and play again. I think for me I was so concerned with playing the game 'right' that I didn't really stop and take the time to take all the small details in. I didn't realise at the beginning the difference between events that were white and yellow so accidentally missed quite a few at the first camp. Now I know to spend more time enjoying each section and not to rush through.
