This mission is one of my favorites, beacuse: 1. Looks badass 2. Whole gang is together 3. Micah isn't in it 4. "They took my son!" - proceeds to take his boys, assault and burn to the ground Braithwate manor 5. Sound design 6. Incredibly fun to play, even though your role isn't as big as in other missions
Number 6 is why it's so appealing. You ain't the main focus. In another universe, Arthur could be a NPC in this mission and nothing would change. It stands on its own.
This mission is why I think Dutch wasn’t always a fraud, IMO he was genuinely hurt and angered that the Braithwaite’s dared come into their camp and kidnap Jack. He didn’t care about there ultimately not being any hidden gold, he rode to the manor with one goal, to get Jack back and destroy the family for even touching the boy. This is probably the last big time that Dutch was the man that Arthur knew.
True. IMO it's when he comes face to face with Angelo Bronte that his "switch" happens. He compares himself to Bronte, thinking he's on the same level or even better than him. And when he instead is used by Bronte, Dutch's ego takes a severe hit and that's when the gang starts noticing a dark change in Dutch's morals/bonds (ex. Their reactions to how he kills Bronte)
@@flemmingmatiasvermeulen9608 no sympathy when people bring children into conflict, children are completely innocent to the world around them, someone who isn’t and tarnishs that innocence for their own personal desires deserves no mercy
John was walking faster than everyone the same way a concerned parent would be. Then wise Hosea realized and pulled him back. This game was 11/10. I'm gonna beat it a third time with low honor
This is one of the most memorable missions I’ve ever played, the marching music as the gang rides up to the house is so baddass, missions like this aren’t seen in most video games today.
Most underrated detail I find about this mission is how John goes from a careless deadbeat, not even bothering that Jack was his own, to a father ready to burn everything down for his boy. Even the way he cries out for Jack in the manor tugs at my heartstrings. For better or worse, Jack being taken was where John changed for the better.
This is also the first time u see John be a complete bad ass 4:00 from this point in the game he talked wit that voice before he talked very low an not that much
6:26 I love this specific scene, Arthur breaks down the door and yells for Jack, only to find a man waiting for him and the way Arthur says “Oh shi-“ and then the shot and the killcam.. pure gold, best scene.
3:50: I don't know whether its intentional or not, but the positioning of the characters is great. Those Arthur trusts with his life and the morally best ones are on the right: Hosea, John, Charles and Lenny (prob age order too) Those who go rogue and eventually you hunt down in the first game on the left: Javier, Bill and Dutch. John and Charles are right next to each other, and they eventually build a house together. Also by 4:05, the four in the middle are the big four, the Old Guard: Dutch, Hosea, John and Arthur.
Doing this after seeing Sean get his face blown off in town just really heightened the emotions of the chapter. Didn't even have 10 minutes to mull over their recent loss before they had to move to save another of their own.
Dutch's greatest moment at 5:10. Honestly, there isn't a single moment that comes close to this except for when Jack shoots Edgar Ross to hell or when John Marston rides again to attack the Laramie boys. But this right here, is THE best RDR moment in the entire franchise.
Dutch proved he's a pretty impressive shot. SPOILERS ... He quickdraw kills Leviticus Cornwall with ease, and in RDR1 he knocks John out by shooting his binoculars into his face, from a distance, with a pistol, with one single shot.
Imagine you stealing someone’s son and giving them to someone else then you sit down for tea with family. All the sudden a bunch of gunslingers show up and kill everyone you love and burn your house down only to watch
They should have immediately opened fire on Dutch and the gang, if they weren’t willing to make peace I don’t understand why they let them into their grounds where they could take cover and would ultimately be closer to their keep, their decision making is retard lol it’s almost like they didn’t expect them to show up
@@AimeeHope89I think Mrs braithwaite should consider herself lucky that Jack's mother Abigail and the rest of the women of the gang did not come along with the guys. Because I think if they had come along they would have taken Mrs braithwaite alive and she would have possibly had an even worse end.
Did any of you idiots play the same game? It was the gangs fault Jack was taken, if they wouldn’t have gotten involved none of this would have even happened.
9:03 Women: you killed my sons! Dutch: oh and I will surely kill the rest of them unless you start talking. Me: there ain’t many left! Edit: thanks for the likes 😍
This game deserves a god damn Oscar and a proper edit to be a true movie. No reanimations, to changes, maybe some upscaled textures, and you have a proper film. Golden acting right here. I never felt so empowered by Dutch during a mission, this truly felt like the peak of the gang right here. Everyone is included with equal responsibilities and you're all on a ride of revenge. Also at 6:25 that little cut at the "Oh sh-!" was perfect lmao. Couldn't even finish his sentence, it felt like a true flinch reaction that just got lucky lol.
When I first played this mission I had no idea what to expect. When they rolled up on the mansion, the moonlight, the dialouge, and the music I was floored. Damn this is a great story. A great game.
One of my favourite parts of this mission is that you see the true side of all the characters. And the writing is so good you would believe they are real people
I never realized she ran into the house when it was in fire. I only discovered it when I went back to see the damage the gang caused. Found her charred corpse in what used to be the main hallway
Before starting the mission you can see Micha sat near the campfire when everyone else is searching for jack which just shows how much of a scumbag he is
@@noidea4223 the actor of Joffrey in got was also very nice, same with Matthew mcConaughey who plays a nihilist in true detective, sometimes the kindest people play the darkest roles
I didnt notice this until my second playthrough, but its badass to think that if you do both the Sean mission and Braithwaite mission in the same day, you destroy both families in a single day in the most badass way posiblle.
This freaking game looks beautiful on my old ass 32 inch tv but with 4k and everything else it's just absolutely gorgeous love this game so much I've beaten it 4 times and playing it again
I actually think this mission would be a great anchor for Red Dead Redemption 3. Picture this: Lieutenant Jeremy Braithwaith returns from his tour of duty with the US army the day after this event expecting a Hero's welcome. Instead, he finds his mother, brothers, and entire family slautered. He buries his family and then seeks out his revenge. He finds out the Gray's were actually responsible for Jack's kidnapping. They wanted to turn the Van Der Lind gang against the Braithwaiths. Having found out, the Braithwaiths organized a joint rescue mission in Saint Denise with Bronte. Before being able to deliver the boy back his family, the Van Der Linde gang came knocking. Jeremy Braithwaith seeks his revenge against the Gray's and works with the Pinkertons to pursue the Van Der Lind gang. Along the way he wrestles with who to blame for the incident. He blames the gang, the Gray's, the US government for keeping him away from his family, but most of all he blames himself for not being there. Being a total badass, he could have stopped the massacre of his kin. Along the way he finds a love interest and he must choose between starting a new life in his wealthy estate or seek vengeance.
Dutch lost his head when hosea died , all he ever did after that are practically revenge except that thing in Guarma , Cornwall and using the Indians for getting what he call "distraction" is pretty much him just venting out his anger .
I think Dutch was having the onset of a mental illness. With Hosea, his Jiminy Cricket, gone and Micah bringing out the worst in him exasperating his mental state. Then we can't ignore the concussion he sustained after the trolly crash. My theory is he just couldn't adapt to the changing times. There were a number of NPCS that had similar issues. Some people can't adapt to change. It isn't easy...especially when you pretty much only have on skill. Real life advice to real people is have more than one specialty and be a jack of all trades with others. That way you have more options. Skills are pretty much free.
For some reason, she actually talked at the end. Why did she decide to? Not just like: “I’ll never tell you! You ruined my family, so you’ll never see your little bastard!” and not even spitting on their faces…
Well, she tried to do that at the beginning, only to see her sons get shot and her ancestral home get burned down. After that, she didn't have anything else going for her. Keeping the boy as leverage would be pointless, as that would only result in her being further tortured by the gang. Being the proud and arrogant woman that she was, spitefully telling the truth, remembering them that they could possibly never reach Jack again was probably her best final move, so she could die in self-immolation close to all the corrupted values her family stood up for, instead of dying by Van Der Linde's hands. Very dramatic and creepy ending.
I love how badass that "if you aint gonna be civil about this" scene is. How he calmly goes into cover while killing those inbred pricks. Definition of badass.
Imagine being one of the people that lived there or the daughter that they locked away and seeing the sky just bright orange and red and seeing that the manor burning. Or one of the guards that runs away
Imagine when jack realizes that when he was young the gang murdered alot of people just so he can be saved I like how everyone in this game wants to put kids out of these business
Guys im not telling lies but when i played this mission my heart rate increased 9999% times, i was hyped soo much, and not only hype but emotines oh my god.....i love that game
This was the peak moment of both the game and the gang. The gang is more justified in their actions here than at any other point in the game. A child was taken from his mother, and every single one of them put their lives on the line to get him back without a moment of hesitation
