Eyes are the windows to the soul.
In the case of Red Dead Redemption 2’s facial animation, that continues to be true. There’s one scene in particular where the reaction in Arthur’s eyes really elevate the emotion to the point where, five years after the release of the game, the scene still sticks with me as if I was watching it for the first time.

Five years of Red Dead Redemption 2 means five years of this scene being ingrained in my memory. It feels like the right time for me to talk about it. What scenes have stood out to you over the last five years?

Arthur saying I'm afraid to sister Calderon is heartbreaking

@themadtitan7603 11 месяцев назад

The scenes with Mrs. Londonderry and Arthur confronting Archie's bullies. The way he's acts the fundamental opposite of how he treated people like them with this new humbled, vulnerable disposition Roger gives Arthur in these scenes just moved me. It's when it clicked and I realized I was playing through the best character arc in a game.

SPOILER ALERT - Seans death stood out for me the most, he was the first character to diе on screen. On my first play, I jumped up from my chair due the loud shot that came out of nowhere. Before that it felt you and the gang were invincible...

„Lneny?“ Jk it is his last talk with sister Calderón. It felt personal and very „human“ as critics/essayists tend to say. For a character that goes through such motiondriven (and repetitive cough*dutch*) missions, it was great to finally get some cracks in arthurs silence for him to talk and reflect on his emotional position. Outside of vague interpretations you could mostly make up from his actions and looks. The devs use a third party character, that knows basically nothing about the mc outside of what she perceived to be the only truth, (him BEING a good man) to then put this into contrast of the mcs emotional struggles (as a sinner in conflict with his former/current beliefs and actions). Beautiful! I like how many RU-vidrs caught the necessity of that scene, but I‘m not surprised that you took the scene showm here as your favorite! Great video! Cool how your contributions still feel educational despite the lack of historical facts in this one! I believe your channel can go another mile with that kind of a format (essays I guess) Peace!

Arthur's "sad eyes" were always his most grabbing feature to me. Even in freeroam. Roger Clark's performance and the work of so many talented graphics, design and mocap devs that gave us this mesmerizing portrait of a conflicted man. I was quite literally struck hearing you narrate Arthur's thoughts as he kicked out Strauss. You're right. Arthur's flawed and hypocritical, as well as hurt and regretful. And I feel underscoring these points in addition to his virtuous traits is important to show that complex duality. It's the conflicted, contradictory and even hyporticial nature that makes him so beautifully human and you paint that image truthfully. Rather than only singing to the latter and making him seem as just another sympathetic protagonist who's a victim of circumstance.

@ryantony7743 11 месяцев назад

I don't think there's ever been a point in this game where Arthur's eyes glowed or had any sort of genuine joy in them. It was just rage, sadness, tiredness, regret, pain etc. I think it goes to further emphasize that Arthur was never truly happy or at peace in this gang. It was all he knew and he saw the gang as his family and you always do what you have to for family but it obviously never brought him any joy I think if Arthur just acknowledged that sooner and ran off with Mary, he would've been far better off. It's like Hosea said at one of the campfires: "I wish I'd acquired wisdom at less of a price" At least he died with some semblance of peace knowing he saved John and his family and gave them a life he could never have. And then John went to go and ruin it by doing the one thing Arthur told him not to do "looking back, killing Micah, revenge is a fools game etc." But again it highlights the humanity of these characters

@themadtitan7603 11 месяцев назад

@@ryantony7743 There's several moments where his eyes light up with joy. Like when he catches a legendary fish, when he's at the saloon with Lenny, when they rescue Sean and he first talks about how nothing means more to him than the gang, when Dutch calls him more than a son, after both of them & Hosea fish, the first Marko Dragic scene, and in the art gallery with Charles. To be clear, I'm not saying this to contradict you or express that I disagree with you. I'm just emphasising all the small of fleeting joy that he's felt in the midst of a long criminal "career" of dissatisfaction, confliction, regret and sadness. As you were saying.

@andremeyer6596 11 месяцев назад

I can’t imagine what Arthur must be feeling when he hears Mrs Londonderry say “Arthur’s dead”. It’s such a tiny detail, but the fact that the man has the same name as him must make Arthur reflect on himself so intensely in that moment.

@totalcreativegaming6681 11 месяцев назад

Roger Clark did a brilliant job at portraying the conflicted hypocrisy & humanity within Arthur Morgan, a man/ character who only sees himself as a “bad man”, a killer, a thief & an outlaw… but someone who deep down has the capacity for compassion, kindness, remorse and ultimately Redemption. (if the player decides to act on these and play as a more honourable gunslinger, than a deranged & dishonourable outlaw). And tbh, I think there’s a few moments throughout the game where certain people comment on Arthur’s “sad eyes” and even Charles mentions that Arthur’s not that completely “dense and heartless” as he (Arthur) tends to make himself look out to be.

@titustavares335 11 месяцев назад

@Ethan54136 11 месяцев назад

The symbolism in this game is incredible. Arthur wants the freedom of the West but the gang continues to settle further and further East, finally ending up in a cave. It's the antithesis of the open air Arthur is dreaming of. Once again this symbolism comes in at the very end of Arthur's journey where you can choose whether or not you want to go back into that cave. How low and dark can someone go for money and riches and is it worth trading your freedom for it.

@antthomas7916 11 месяцев назад

If you listen to all of the dialogue between him and Charles during the mission where you save the German father while trying to find a new camp, he'll comment on how Dutch won't hide out like a rat in a cave somewhere. That's a good bit of foreshadowing, showing how far Dutch and the gang fell and became a shell of themselves. Dutch turned into the person he hated.

@mysryuza 10 месяцев назад

I’ve never thought I could connect and feel so attached to a video game so closely until I discovered Arthur. I feel his pain and internal struggles to an extent, and the morality and ethics of his loyalty, acceptance of his past choices, etc. Dude was so human and real to me that I hardly expected from any fictional character I witnessed. In recent events in my life, I realized that I felt like Arthur in my situation (questioning my morals while being associated with a problematic and egotistical leader in his community, then something bad occurring that led to the community’s breakdown and my choice to abandon that loyalty, as the guy’s problematic actions and morals don’t align with mine and things never changed for the better). Arthur was the representation of the thought process that went down in my mind in those times and I never realized until now. I knew he was gonna die eventually, but my god, when I saw it happen and the song kicks in, I felt so sad and teared up. It was like witnessing a friend you knew the entire journey die.

Eyes are undoubtedly one of, if not the most expressive part of one's face, truly depicted by, for example, Ryan Gosling. And the performance of rockstar developers is truly game changing, no pun intended. I don't think I saw a game with such incredible, yet in fact important detail being done so right. There might be some indie game of a sort, but in a huge blockbusters, such as rdr2 it is very rare we see something like that. Yes, mocap for brows done often enough, but not the eyelids. I think in a long-term it is really ground breaking nuance

@Arto257 6 дней назад

One thing I've noticed in this game is the very real technique that Arthur often uses where he hides his eyes behind his hat. That's an extremely human thing to do, especially in very emotional circumstances. I myself have done it when apologizing for something I had done to a friend, because I felt so ashamed of my actions that I felt I'd cry if I looked them in the eye. So I lowered my head, and the brim of my hat covers my eyes from view, but also means I can't see the other person's eyes. I thought it was a very interesting direction choice to have that be something that Arthur actually did - it makes him so much more human in my eyes. It really sells the emotions he seems to be feeling, as if he's saying "I'm so ashamed of myself and disgusted by my actions that I can't even look you in the eye."

@noepp Месяц назад

What me hit me the most the desperate pleading in Arthurs eyes when Dutch cuts Abigail loose after she got caught by Pinkertons. Oh, and before how his eyes lit up so childlike when Dutch told him that he's more than a son to him. And speaking of Dutch. The realization in Dutch' eyes in the final moments with Arthur is made so good. This game is really a masterpiece and pushed TLOU for me on no. 2 of my favorite games and easily jumped on no. 1.

I myself may have not been facing my own mortality like Arthur did, but I definitly where in situations in my life, where I realized I fucked up and that I was at a point where I couldn't hide from facing the consequences of my actions, so I became desperate and it feels like Arthur acted out of desperation too... Yet: he might have acted in desperation, but his actions still where genuine.

Arthur is pissed in this ending, but he also wants to sacrifice himself and, with a bit of luck, give the money to John because he won't live to see the next day, so we can interpret that Arthur wants to take revenge, breaking his rule of "revenge is fool`s game".

I stopped lashing out on people (both strangers and close ones) nowadays, and I started loving stories such as Urasawa's "Monster", tales where the best part of humanity is highlighted.

I love the writers' and actors' work... the programmers, the designers of gameplay... the visual artists... They all did their best despite all awful crunch stuff and other workplace problems at Rockstar. I commend them so much for making these wonderful interactive stories happen.

The people who borrowed money did have agency over themselves.

I didn’t even play the last debt collection mission because of the moral dilemma presented. I was unfortunate to miss the opportunity to see Arthur’s true morality develop.

I find it so funny how Arthur can kill countless lawmen, working men trying to provide for their family and keep their communities safe without a second thought but people who borrow money having to pay it back? that's where he draws the line?
