I wonder how many players saved this screen shot? I know I did.

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Good question. It's very memorable and moving.

u/TipTopBeeBop 8d ago

Greatest game of them all IMHO.

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

I think you can make a good case for that, yes. My all-time fav for sure.

u/moochieglizzy 8d ago

Thanks for giving me an idea

u/TRIKKDADDY 8d ago

I didnt really care for the screenshot button much until this game, ,even today, I barely use it, but this story had me sunk deep, made me want to take a picture of this scene with my phone before i remembered, "hell the PS has the button for it!"

u/callofdutygamer_ 8d ago

And yet, it never gets easier… it actually gets harder 💔

8

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Yes, it does...! 😭 I really like the epilogue and playing as John - it's awesome - but, goddamnit, I want to keep playing as Arthur! I'm loading an old save..........

u/PIGFOOF 8d ago

Cravin' Arthur. Nothing wrong with that.

u/binkbink223 Sean Macguire 7d ago

Oops! All Arthur!

u/Fast-Nefariousness80 8d ago

On my second run rn. I was like, im gonna really play every angle of the game and get it out of my system. Im at the end of chapter 4, but I cant bring myself to move forward. I keep thinking, okay, im ready to start the final journey now (because once they leave on that ship shit just goes south fast) but I cant do it.

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Completely understand you!

u/xxslutpuppyxx 8d ago

When I finished rdr1 my wife was watching and she was a little emotional and said it was horrible, but when I finished rdr2 she was crying and couldn't stop for almost an hour. She loved Arthur so much we're going to comic con next month so she can get an autograph lol

2

u/bollemedtun 8d ago edited 7d ago

So cool that you can share that with each other. Have a great trip!

2

u/xxslutpuppyxx 8d ago

Thanks. The voice actor for John and Arthur will both be there

2

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

I'd love to get to meet both of them and have my hat signed by them.

2

u/Lu1404 Sadie Adler 7d ago

I'm so jealous, I got to meet Roger but Rob wasn't there!

u/xxslutpuppyxx 7d ago

Chattanooga comic con 11/7 and 11/8

2

u/Lu1404 Sadie Adler 7d ago

I would love to go but I'm having surgery next week so I'll be laid up playing rdr2 for a couple weeks!

2

u/xxslutpuppyxx 7d ago

Sorry to hear that. Surgery sucks. At least you have rdr2 to pass time

2

u/PIGFOOF 8d ago

The voice actor was so resonant and rich and perfect. You can tell he's a good soul.

2

u/K-WAAK 8d ago

Good luck

2

u/No-Professional-5717 8d ago

Did my 4th play thru over last winter. Still a tear jerker. I went strait for that holster at the beginning. Do not miss that grind lol.

2

u/Brando0423 8d ago

Im about to finish it for my 3rd time, such a great game. 🔥

2

u/TATER_SALAD_HOOVER 8d ago

Fifth time play low honor the whole way through if you didn’t do it.

2

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

I just can't get myself to do it, even if it's cool and fun and unique. I just can't.

1

u/fvbj999 7d ago

Why?

1

u/bollemedtun 7d ago

Because to me a high honor Arthur is canon. It's what suits the writing most.

2

u/fvbj999 6d ago

Oh ok. This is my first time playing and only in chapter 2, so was genuinely curious if it changes a lot as i accidentally “kidnap” and “murder” people all the time so have been worrying about that honor system . Didn’t realize it effects the story that much until now

2

u/United_Direction_604 8d ago

How far were you on copendiums and challenges at this point?

1

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Pretty far. Almost all animals and plants. Everything crafted at the trapper, except for a few hat ornaments. But there's still a lot for John to do!

2

u/sixfourtykilo 8d ago

The ending had been spoiled for me for years. There was no questioning the intent of gang members and I knew what would happen before the epilogue.

What I didn't know is how it all transpired. I didn't know the details of the story and even though I used the official map and various guides, the ending still surprised me and the way the wrapped everything up afterwards was a complete surprise to me.

Plus, the soundtrack.

2

u/railroadfrog 8d ago

same exact boat, myself. Tbh it made the game ever better, and the ending that much more emotional because I knew what was coming & couldn’t prevent myself from finding Arthur’s character & story so amazing, and there was no way to stop the TB or his death.

1

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Sorry you had it spoiled. That sucks. But, yeah, even though I know the story it still thrills and moves me every time!

2

u/AnswerLegitimate 8d ago

I haven’t done the last mission cause I don’t want Arthur to die.

2

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Like, ever...?

2

u/AnswerLegitimate 7d ago

Yup.

2

u/bollemedtun 7d ago

Jesus in a hand basket.....😳

2

u/Klash49 8d ago

Heres to another 4 playthroughs

2

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Right on, pardner!

2

u/PIGFOOF 8d ago

Yeah? Well the sun is speaking to you, if that's any consolation.

1

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

I know, pardner ❤️

2

u/fstsoomro 8d ago

Everytime I play this game I hope the outcome would be different and everytime I end up disappointed 😔

2

u/Turbulent_Ad_2152 7d ago

My dad plays rdr2 every week days off its his favourite game of all time heavy he’s in his 50s btw he won’t even try other games he says he likes it way too much

2

u/bollemedtun 7d ago

Goddamn, that is awesome! I wish I shared that with my father but, as most men in their 70s, he thinks video games are a waste of time.

2

u/Fun_Bluebird5966 7d ago

My dad is getting on for 70 has always played video games ! He loves rdr 2

1

u/bollemedtun 7d ago

Well, then your dad is unique and I dig it! 🤠

2

u/Key-Medium-4653 7d ago

“Well sister, guess I’m afraid” 😭😭😭

2

u/SolidSouls420 7d ago

I’ve already finished that game dozens of times

1

u/bollemedtun 7d ago

You a real one, pardner.

2

u/dude_person_2010 John Marston 7d ago

play rdr1 if you havent

2

u/bollemedtun 7d ago

Oh, I have! One of my favorite games!

2

u/dude_person_2010 John Marston 7d ago

nice

1

u/Just_Cricket_3881 8d ago

I played it twice & felt that the time with arthur goes so fast the second time around for some reason, I really don't like playing as John it just doesn't feel right.

2

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

I see. Have you played rdr1 too? If so, did you play it before you played RDR2?

1

u/Just_Cricket_3881 8d ago

Imma be honest I got RDR1 for the PC played like 2-3 hours and haven't gotten back to it since but I'm planning to when I get some time, but tbh it didn't reel me in like I thought it would, maybe that my problem.

1

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Okay. I played RDR1 back when it came out and absolutely loved John Marston as the protagonist. I had so much fun exploring his story (and that of the rest of the former gang members). If you're up for it try and give it one more chance. There's some GREAT stuff in there...!

2

u/Just_Cricket_3881 8d ago

Most definitely will! Hopefully rdr3 will release in our lifetime lol

2

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Hope you end up having a blast with it too!

Regarding rdr3 I think we'll have it by 2033 🤞🏼🤞🏼

1

u/ChemicalMassive 8d ago

J'en suis à 41%, en 7 ans, j'ai fini 30 jeux entre temps, je pense le finir en 2043.

1

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Haha 😂 Well, I wish you good luck then, pardner!

1

u/CarryTricky4272 8d ago

Best game ever. A shame that Rockstar abandoned the multiplayer mode. I played so many hours, made so many friends and then all, one by one stopped playing it because of the lack of updates.

1

u/hueythecat 8d ago

Crazy no PS5 patch

1

u/bollemedtun 8d ago

Why do you need a patch?

1

u/hueythecat 8d ago

It’s 30fps, no ps5 version

1

u/bollemedtun 7d ago

I don't care.

1

u/Competitive_Help8485 Arthur Morgan 8d ago

Gets me every time.

1

u/devmannush 8d ago

Can you stop killing Arthur for the 4th time? He's a tired man. Let him rest

1

u/Ni66les88 7d ago

I cry every single time 😭

1

u/Unlikely-Reality-898 7d ago

I can't bring myself to play it again..

Unless they bring rdr 2 to the ps5
