RDR2: Low Honor Arthur Changed My Life! 

and that video is also very good 🙂

Talking about me?

It is always shocking to see even after the play through I agree

Because just like Dutch, Arthur gave you all he had

dude hes sick but hes not real

I agree I died with low honor sadly but I replayed the game and beat the game with high honor the ending was sad

That feeling is real there’s a real sense of loss you experience seeing a character you invested so much time into and watched them change also all the legendary trapper cloths all the progress and all the things you weren’t able to do with Arthur are also gone with him so that feeling of loss is felt in a literal loss of time and progress along with a well written character and story it makes the death feel real because you as the player feel genuine loss. It’s actually an incredible life lesson, sometimes we make plans and they don’t happen or we feel like we miss out on “what could have been” but what matters most is how we spend our lives and the end of our lives, spreading small acts of love and kindness will go a long way and the people you help along the way will remember you for your actions.

A wonderful comment to read. Thanks for posting!

more of the same, low honor to high honor spew because ppl are not willing to gain a new outlook of perspectives when trying to do a full low honor playthrough but can't blame ppl like you in the RDR community because of how Rockstar chose to prioritise their writing of the Honor system in RDR2...

My first play through I was the lowest of honor but when Arthur started coughing his lungs out in Saint Denis something changed in me. At the time I had no knowledge the honor system impacted the ending too

I'm gonna be honest, I'm a very nice guy, but for some reason, the npcs decide to call me jackass, fool and say other offensive things and since I'm loaded with guns, I just blast them 😅. Apart from that and the ocasional npc walking in front of my galloping horse, I always make the high honor choice

Same. I have reached 100% completion 10 times. I can't do it as a bad guy.

Rdr2 is also my favorite game. What other games can give you this feeling? I have only been playing nba 2k these days

@@brandontan3938 closest for me is Last of Us 2 and Uncharted 4 actually. I think both of those also have some good lessons on being a human.

I just played and finished It for the first time it’s incredible. It’s definitely timeless.

​@@brandontan3938 in terms of open world, I think that only witcher 3 is on the same level.

U ever play fortnite?

Lmfao this made laugh so hard, whatever u say chucky 😂 thanks for watching

I shoot the horses first so they don’t run off and I can loot the saddlebags. If Arthur’s gotta die in the end he’s gonna do whatever the fuck he wants along the way.

Bro saddle bags are so much easier to loot when the horse aint trying to run or kick you in the face :D

​@@StonedNTThat horse didn't have a saddle. Haha!

Turning down Sadie was when I knew I went too far

Nah, I respectfully disagree, I think that the high honor option is rejecting her, being revengeful just dosent fit Arthur.

Why it’s a video game relax these are not real people

@@crackericeproductions I know, I just get so immersed into the world that it's hard for my brain to understand it at times lol. Plus, I pretty much already know what happens if you take the low honor choices and I have a better experience with high honor

@@PabloTheInternationalSuperSpy I get it but you should get immersed into being a ruthless outlaw it’s a lot of fun and the possibilities are endless I remember when I first played rdr 2 I shot a deer 🦌 n the wrong spot and hearing it whine like that was the first time a game has made me feel guilty about my actions but I adapted lol so I get it but trust me it’s like a whole new game and you get different outcomes compared to high honor to each there own

Was a pleasure working with the soundtrack for this video!

This comment made my day. I was skeptical if a video like this would do well but I’m blown away by the reception. I’m going in this direction going forward. Thank you for the comment and watching!

​@@PremoSaysThingsI'm inspired. Any tips/programs? Trying to grow.

Sotrue

Agreed. What a great video

same here, subscribing because of this video

Truth. 💯

You got that right! I hate it when they similarize them. Red dead redemption is a masterpiece of it's own and in it's own world at that.

Also, GTA is like satire and making fun of american society. The fuck is RDR gonna ridicule? The Old West? 💀💀💀💀

Even Rockstar made this mistake, judging by how they neglected RDR online.

​@@Drago_012There is a lot of satire of modern life and of that time in the game and especially in RDR1 and RDR: Undead Nightmare.

Well said. Great comment. Thank you

Yes you are right

Yeah you did great, great work on this video. Keep it up and the subs will quickly build up I bet!

Great video! Pure quality! Watching now at 182k

@@littlewicky1 appreciate it! - 182 that is literally nutssss

@@PremoSaysThings congrats man. Based on the video you deserve it. Gotta watch your Jack and Daxter video now.

@@littlewicky1 thanks! It was tough to follow this up but we keep it moving and give it the best shot.

I’m sorry friend! Haha I keep Arthur in chapter 2 now but I miss going fishing with Hosea and Dutch

@@PremoSaysThingsChapter 2 is best because Micah is in Jail

​@@Cartman4wesome the ONLY reason I save him is double holsters, he can can stay in his hermit crab camp though.

​@@candispong9233you can buy a second holster from the pelt guy, you just need to complete some Hunter mission

​@@candispong9233 you can get second holster with all the challenges no need to free micah

I feel like this comment really encapsulates how I felt during the ending. It was like I was playing a game the entire game, and then all the sudden - that game was real. My consequences were real. It was even more shocking than normal I think - because I actually had the ending spoiled for me, I knew he was gonna die of TB, and I knew he died on a mountain overlooking a sunset. I was anticipating that, so when Micah took Arthur’s life. Man. It was like a cold wind had passed through my body.

@@PremoSaysThingsthis just happened on my first play through.

Same I was like that didn't happen to me 😅😊

There are 4 total endings

Same, I thought maybe I skipped the cut scene, but I googled it and said there were multiple endings.

Each choice leads to 2 endings which depends on your honor. So there's go for the money with low honor, go for the money with high honor, help Jon with high honor and help Jon with low honor.

First of all! You do not ever beat this game. This is not possible. You either live this game or play this game! Never beat it!

Incredible. Jealous of the first run being at high honor. I wish I paced myself to get there. Thank you for the wonderful comment it means a lot!

Deadass bro 😂😂😂😂 I just bought this game bout 2-3 months ago I haven’t closed app since, I finished the game twice already 😭

Say alot about the game. The working condition for 6 years straight of crunch means we will never get a game this detailed and High quality again. Rip

@@completelytransparent6320 gta 6 gang just wait

Spoiler for take the money ending: That knife push doesn't kill him, it goes on a bit longer. But if you pick take the money, the endings the same no matter what your honour level is.

@@localtortoise Wrong, going for the money with high honor is a different ending.

@@HakoTaco1 oh. I hadn't tried the take the money ending. Every video I've watched where they take the money always has the same ending so I thought it was only the help John one that changed

​@@localtortoiseYou're good, watch the one by GTA Series Videos. It's the best one.

​@@localtortoiseIn low honor Micah always finishes Arthur off, either with a knife, or with a shot through the head. "Heckuva shocker". High honor, Micah leaves with Dutch. Leaving you, the fatally wounded Arthur, to pass watching the sun rise.. I got a low honor leave the money, same ending shown. I saw Arthur as a man who saw he was dying, and tried to change... Too little, too late.

Same here! I started my 2nd playthrough a year ago and I'm two missions away from completing the main story, but I felt I just couldn't go through the ending again so I left it there. Recently I picked it up again thinking I'd finish the game, but I've found myself just riding my horse all over the map and spending time with Arthur.

He's meant to be low honour until after Guarma

I've tried for low honour about 3 times now, and like you, I feel like I'm betraying him and end up with high honour, it's an awesome game ain't it?

On my 2nd playthrough and convinced myself that unlike my 1st, it was going to be low honour all the way. I failed......I think you play the character equal to your own morals. I take no shit with people that deserve to be taught a lesson but will always help the good souls. Well done Rockstar, you nailed it.

I’m the opposite. I’ve done 5 play throughs and I try to do high honor but it just not as fun. No shootouts or robberies. You have to do Mary’s missions. No executing random people. No tying them up and throwing them on fires or blowing them up with dynamite. No shooting anything and everything you see. It’s just not as fun

Glad I could help! Thanks for watching

I thought it was a coyote

@@candles6103 Damn, you are right! Guess I haven't really seen a lot of coyotes before lol. But it does make a lot of sense in the setting.

I saw it and I had the high honor ending

This is what I had. And a deer was the animal I saw last. I didn't even know about this brutal ending 😳

What a wonderful comment. Really. Thank you for writing it. It’s interesting how I see so many people say they could never have done a low honor play through ever - but the ones who do end up being really impacted and immediately think about doing another play through of the game. I’ll have to check out the Blaxkwater glitch! Is that on pc? I loved reading this! I hope rdr3 is around the corner and they knock it out of the park. This game stays in a league of its own for me.

@@PremoSaysThings Appreciate the reply! I originally played this game as a murder-hobo, killing any and every NPC I crossed paths with just because I could. I had the cool guns, the fast horses, and I was the untouchable main character. They were all just NPCs with no contribution other than to serve me in some way. There are so few games that impress any meaningful repercussions on the player that I had assumed this game would be no different. The life that the writers have painstakingly breathed into this game is unmatched. It's one thing to have a honor system, but it's a whole other to have dialogue interactions, cut scenes, and missing or further developed characters to back it up. When you help a guy out, and he ends up thanking you in another area much later in the game, you feel it. For me, one moment that sticks out is finding Downes' wife as a prostitute in Annesburg. There is no reason to have her there, or to continue her story other than to make you feel something. Further, her way of life sadly does make some sense as to what you might expect to have happened historically. It's been a while since I've played, so I don't know if the method to get to Blackwater as Arthur still exists or has been since patched, but I played on PS4 when I did it. Usually I've found games get patched on PC before consoles, so I wouldn't be surprised if you can still do it. I haven't opened the game since I took Arthur as far as possible in 2019 or so. That said, the fact that you can make a video all this time later, and I can watch it and still get flooded with all the feelings I felt playing it for the first time speaks magnitudes not only to the writing of the game, but also for your effort in composing a video essay in your own time about your own thoughts and feelings while experiencing the story yourself. So thank you for that and please do continue making quality content such as this.

That’s huge praise thank you so much. Makes me super happy to hear. Atleast we can all go through sorrow together

Thank you so much! It’s crazy, this video game was as good as they get!

The highest compliment I can receive! Thank you so much.

I had sort of a similar thought process, I really didn’t realize I was playing the end of the story. On one hand it’s disappointing, on the other that is why the game is so good.

damn man gotta get tht 2nd play through in enjoy the side missions nd shi

i feel the same way bro - i cant start a second playthrough either it wouldnt feel right. the game and story itself is way to captivating and immersive.. its like it happened once and wont ever be reproduced, the message and emotions are better than and movie i‘ve seen or game i‘ve played altough i only played it once.. wish i could go back in time with no knowledge on whats gonna happen and authentically experience the game like im back in october 2018..

played once on my crappy xbox one, thinking of replaying on my good PC cause it looks so much better @@noahaidankreis8816

Hahaha I’m sorry about the horse, I had to confess my sins. Damn brother that is commitment!!! And very well thought out. It’s funny how you really can’t do anything about the TB, even avoid the encounter with the man. I have to say this is my favorite game I’ve ever played. Opened my eyes to the possibilities of story in games and hope we get a solid rdr3 and rockstar doesn’t just pay attention to gta 6

Agreeed. That gave me chills the first time.

Low honor or high?

@@PremoSaysThings low honour

100% agree!

Bro… born an angel. It isn’t clear if you go for the money that you can’t bring it back to John so… we will give the benefit of the doubt

Going back for the money is cooler anyway

Same friend I was not ready for that at all. Thanks for watching, glad you had a good time with the game!

I reckon helping John is the best possible outcome, I really do like it

Great comment

so Arthur as a whole should get shot in the face because he killed and killed lots of ppl...

When Micah called Arthur crazy... That's kinda a trigger word for Dutch. Him walking away... Might have been all he felt he could do. Then later on the mountain top... When Micah talks more shit... Dutch couldn't just walk away anymore. Dutch wasn't ever a good man. He was quite a bad man. And he did have his principles, maligned as they were.

My Arthur got stabbed to death by Micah

Thanks for the cool comment. You’re in for a ride! Good luck out there cowboy

Tons of ways to make money. Those treasure maps can add up!

Doing a second play through now. I’d rather have tears than just sitting in cold silence as I just watched Micah blow my brains out

sunrise actually

I like the ending where micah shoots him. More tragic

​@@rasmussyrjala1370ending where he sees the sunset and also fuck up micahs eye permanently: 🗿

I believe it's a Coyote not a wolf.

I appreciate the comment! Thank you

You don’t know the power of the dark side

@@PremoSaysThings My low honor Arthur did many awful things yet still managed to scar Micah and scam himself into heaven by simply going on a long fishing session and the tossing every fish back into the lake

I am on 3rd playthrough and i simply can not play Arthur as a negative guy. Simply not possible for me.

Wow that’s a big compliment thank you!

Absolutely agree

That makes me a happy man! Appreciate it. Thanks for the comment

Absolutely agree. Thanks for the comment

Thank you for sharing friend. Hope you success and a prosperous 2024. Glad you got the high honor ending

The high honor is the perfect ending. Arthur says it himself he would like to die facing the sunset west overlooking the lands he had so much fun in. And he don't get donuted which is a bonus

@@tfdidusayho yeah but the point is that he doesn’t get to have what he wants

live by the gun die by the gun

@@Tourettes42069 except he does its just a little bit of closure

@@tfdidusayho well I hate cupcakes and closure

Thank you so much! What a compliment! Really appreciate it.

Best compliment ever, thank you. It is an amazing game

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! 🫡 this is the standard going forward I appreciate this so much. Very motivating

Doing it right now friend I’m excited. Thanks for watching

he doesn't NEED to replay with High Honor and having to be succumbed into a certain playstyle that the Public Opinion chose to perceive towards Arthur Morgan in regards to High Honor...

I feel that so much. Rdr2 is amazing

Greatest compliment ever thank you so much! This style of video is clearly the way forward thank you

Definitely worth the playthrough!

Truuuuuth thanks bro appreciate it

You mean easy?

Indeed. Someone’s gotta do it

Truth

Thank you so much! I’m gonna increase the quality of the videos in the future going forward. Appreciate it! Good luck!

Thanks! I started on my phone about 6 months ago but finally got a pc 2 months ago and started regularly uploading. Hopefully future videos stay at this level! Appreciate the comment
