My son Davide died last month of brain cancer, on January 15th ... he was just turned 18.... I listen this song every day because he loves Arthur so much and RDR2 was his favourite game by far. I know that the story of Arthur's illness and death inspired him a lot, helped him deal with his own. I will love you forever my son
The sadest things in red dead 2 1:Arthur death 2:horse death 3:the last ride 4:when he said I'm afraid 5: some gang members 6:sad song (edited this 1000 times)
Red Dead Redemption 2 is definitely the best game I've ever played Edit: 4 years later I've played many more amazing games, but RDR2 remains at the top and likely always will
I cried. It's uncommon for a game to do that to me, but this moment was so damn human and emotional. This game has so many moments that I don't want to let go of. The campfires, the friends, Arthur... I drank a little in his honor, a fake person got me grieving like i'd lost a friend. But damn if he didn't turn into a great man by the end. I'd love to meet someone as gracious and honourable.
“Be loyal to what matters” ... “Vengeance is an idiot's game” ... “We're more ghosts than people” ... “Just do one thing or the other, don't try to be two people at once”… "We Can’t Change What's Done, We Can Only Move On"… “Nothing means more to me than this gang. The bond we share , it’s the more real thing to me , I would kill for it, I’d happily die for it.”… “The one thing that I do know , that there’s no shame looking for better world”… -*Arthur morgan* .
Travis Webb damn I felt like I really lost one of my family , Arthur was a REAL to me and it’s hard to believe it’s game character and didn’t exist in real life
With high honor when this plays in the one of the ending missions when Arthur is riding his horse, I literally couldn't stop crying. Same things make us smile, make us cry 😢😢😢
Literally just finished the main story, and honestly I don’t think I’ve ever cried so hard at the end of the video game. From Arthur’s last ride to him thanking his horse, and the sunrise at the end I had snot and tears rolling down my face the whole time. This game was a fuckin masterpiece. 😭😭
I need to know how and why Arthur is such a good character, I’ve only played the game for 2-3 weeks. I love him, he is great but how!? How is he the best character in game history!?
I preordered this game and got it five years ago. I finally just beat it three weeks ago on it’s five year anniversary. I purposely waited that long be I knew once I beat it, there wouldn’t be a game as great at RDR 2 for years to come. I’m 29 and I’ve never cried so hard in my life over a character besides John Marston I’m RDR 1
@@Libertycityking17 I know exactly what you feel... I just played the game years after released with zero spoilers....I cant remember anything that made me cry this much
i actually also just beat rdr2 just 2 days ago and whenever im here listeing to this im just end up in tears the story the character bonding in this game is amazing its been 2 days but still everytime i see a arthur morgan video even a meme i just cry the last mission was so fucking sad i cried the whole mission i wished if arthur had drink a tonic potion i wish
Eh.. i agree completely that games can be art, but im apprehensive about calling rdr2 art as a game. It is beautiful, and its scenes are art, its story is incredible, that is art also. But the gameplay can be soggy, poor gunplay and such, a bit tedious for a shooter.
@@kostasspirou1010 thats the reason most games are called art... Gameplay mechanics and all those technicalities are kinda made up for if the story is really good.
The only ones that comes close for me is “now we are free” from the end of gladiator. Gandalfs speech to pippin as the city is about to fall in the third movie and Frodos last good by.
Today my brother died. He got me into Red dead redemption. We both looked forward to Read Dead Redemtion 2. We both loved the game. This song stuck into my mind. Hours after he passed and here I am... I'm sorry
@@sobhankhaleghi3041 arthur is like a real person. It's like i was there to be lectured by him. Batman is just a comic book hero, with fiction. History>Fiction lol
I have been diagnosed with lung cancer…I don’t have much time left.I was playing the game alot during covid and was a huge fan.Now,I just wanna make my life matter.I will try to be the best father I can.I will live on for few years from now on.
Stay strong brother. In the end the time is coming for all of us. It’s what you do before then and leave behind that matters. Nothing in this life is without purpose, no pain or suffering that isn’t part of your path. I pray for your healing, stay strong sir.
@@gloomysubtopewdiepie7019 same. I rushed the game a bit since I only had a few days left of the pass and I'm probably gonna end up buying it tomorrow just so I can explore more and take my time on the game.
Just beat it with my girlfriend she wasn’t super into games but she is now and she cried during this mission and said “I never thought a game could be so beautiful” it was my third time playing the game all the way through and i still cried I think I cried more then the first time Especially when Arthur tells the sister he’s afraid gets me every time to see him so strong as a man yet he’s so afraid to face death
@refeiK nwoCcM He was never his friend and never his enemy. We all knew that Refeik. That height Phelps was jumping up to is impossible, especially with water over his feet. But yeah, why does Phelps have to die for all the burden he's done to his family?
@refeiK nwoCcM Well, I hate Earle too and his corruption in LA. I have played through all of it. You are welcome to release all the grief you want at anyone. Let all that anger out. Nothing I can say will ever bring Cole back. That's all I have to say.
It’s dumb but I legitimately feel like I’m grieving for Arthur. It’s been days and I still feel choked up about it. Never had this happen from any game, book, or TV series before.
@@katyalupochev9589 its not dumb at all. Great games with great stories are hard to find and when you play one like RDR2 you invest yourself into characters. Rockstar just knows how to make epic games.
my wife passed away recently, she was 31. . .ive always loved this game, and hearing this song now just hits so different dude. . . (miss u babe, love u a whole lot)
The only thing i knew is that Arthur will die. Cause i never thought i would play this masterpiece. I had no idea about anything else and i was still astonished and cried my eyes out when Arthur died.
When this song plays, everything feels like it's in slow motion just like in the game. There's not even words that can describe the feelings I have for this game and how sentimental it gets to me.
Arthur taught us to be good people to be loyal even though he does not exist doesn't mean that the emotions in the urge to do the loyal and right thing doesn't exist.
I played it for the first time in October once, then got it for Christmas since it was taken off game pass the week after I got it, man... what a game.
i played it over my first time with cheats unlocked and it still made me upset when Arthur died, Sooooooo i played it over again without cheats and a 100% full honor bar
Things we learn playing this game: - a bad man can turn into a good Man - its never too late for redemption - be loyal to what matters - revenge is a fool's game - you can't do bad things and expect to have a good life - there is no shame looking for a better world - life is full of pain, but there is also love and beauty - we can’t change what’s done, we can only move on A truly masterpiece, i think i never played such a wonderful game.
“Revenge is a fools game” “I gave you all I had” “Be loyal to what matters” “You don’t get to live a bad life and have good things happen to you” “We can’t change what’s done, we can only move on” “Just do one thing or the other, don’t try to be two people at once” Legendary quotes from a legendary character
@@willmelucci2989 Like what issues if I may ask? No thing is perfect in its most literal sense but it's the kind of game which I'd rate 10/10 in my book with no questions asked.
That moment when Arthur gets on his horse and bows his head to put on his hat, this song begins to play and you realize that he is going to meet his death.... all I can feel is chills down my neck.
It was the greatest experience of the entire game. I almost never wore Arthur’s hat and when he put it on, it made me cry! I knew it was the end, that this is the greatest video game character ever developed, that this is Arthur Morgan! After he handed John his hat, I made the promise to never take It off. That I will forever wear Arthur’s hat when I play as John
That's exactly what I felt. You know what's going to happen, you know it's gonna smell blood and gunpowder. And when the time comes, it's even worst than what you imagined
You can tell that it broke dutch down when he said that, the realization of such a blindness was all too clear to him.. to have abandoned his son was the worst sin that he could have committed, and he did so with a cold heart.. to both Arthur, and John. Arthurs words cut him deep. Ah Dutch... there was good in you.. cant cry about what could have been tho. Thats the way it is
As female gamers of gaming community, I thank you for sharing your thoughts. How did you lady gamers feel to see so many "manly" guys cry like babies? Not gonna lie, I was on the verge as my eyes glazed up but I held my tears in... I know this hit me pretty hard because of this reaction; I rarely ever cry, but Arthur hit me in the feels more than some close people I know! Funny but true...
I know how you feel friend. My grandmother used to enjoy watching me playing video games too, including the First RDR. She passed away in 2016. Although they moved on these warm and rare memories will stay with us Forever.
Hosea: When I die, Just want to be buried with friends. Lenny: Me too.. with friends or with family, I dont think that matters more than that Hosea: What about you Arthur Arthur: Bah I dont care in that nonsense Hosea: OOH come on Arthur: Face me to the West so I can watch the setting sun And... remember all the fun times we that way...
What's pretty cool about that quote is that instead of Arthur watching a setting sun symbolising him fading away to death, he instead watches a sunrise which symbolises that he brought life to John, so that he could finally have a life with his family.
When Arthur's horse went down and John yelled at him to hurry up. He said "wait" then he took the time to say "thank you" while his horse passed away. That scene had me crying...
The last 5-6 hours of the game caught me like nothing else. The hate for Micah, sorrow for Arthur, disbelief because of Dutch's behaviour. AND THEN THE FUCKING HORSE!! I was an emotional wreck after Arthur died.
I started crying when the horse died, it was a white Arabian and her name was Seahorse, had her since chapter 2. Somehow I really felt Seahorse trusted Arthur, never got bucked off and went she got scared all I had to do was press the calm down button and she'd calm down, she was a real good horse.. got really sad when she died.
I had a fully bonded black Arabian by the name of Dullahan. A majestic and proud stallion. I rewinded the game 10 hours once cuz he died and there was no autosave in those hours. A gorgeous saddle, and groomed every time he looked vaguely dirty. He got all the sugar cubes. When I saw him there, dying, god it hurt. This horse was my companion. He could run from Wapiti to Emerald Ranch and back without stopping.
@@omegadark6919 here's a joke for ya Arthur: LENNY?! YOU.. YOU BASTARD! *A few weeks later or a month later* Arthur: Dutch.. they got lenny.. *A month or a few months later* *Arthur dies* *Arthur goes to hell/heaven* Arthur: HAHA FOUND YA LENNIE
@@haroondanyal5466 "Maybe it's a sign, Arthur...try...try to do the good thing" In his diary, he makes it clear that it took he a while to realize how things really were and are, as is life, the band and Dutch especially. Therefore, at a certain point (and especially the course towards the end), one tends to think that the Canon is that at a certain point (more or less intermediate) until the final chapter, Arthur begins to see things in a different way, to think differently and try to do the right thing, that's why in the end he says it, that at least he tried, he tried to do the right thing for once in his life(helping as much as he can to those who he still care, certain people that he hurt, as well to people who need it). In a way, everything he did in the end brings him to his Redemption.
During the ride, when his whole life played back in his mind, it hit me real bad. I don't remember experiencing anything quite like this in a video game. I don't care what people say. This game is f***in' art.
he won another greater award. That millions of fans loved a graphic cause of this man's delivery. I have in my life only cried (talking about media) in the movie my name is Sam. And i did again yesterday...
Red Dead Redemption: I don't want to play as Jack, I want to play as John! Red Dead Redemption 2: I don't want to play as John, I want to play as Arthur!
Homeless vet: Arthur? That is a fine name, a strong name, a Kings name Jack Marston: There is king Arthur in my book John Marston: king Arthur? I like that name. RIP Arthur Morgan Edit: thanks for 1k likes👌🏾
If you talk to him before dying as Arthur he'll open up to you and say he's really sorry and will miss you. It really goes to show the detail in the game. RIP Arthur.
