Now I may be a no good cheating, lying, backstabbing, murdering, burglaring son of a bitch...

rdr1 didnt really go out of its wake to be woke

John was way more cynical about it though, the Mexico part is to let you see he knows revolution is bullshit as well.
Arthur's a big bumbling retard who still believes in Dutch con.

>it's fake
single player bros, we lost...

John didn't give a fuck, he just wanted to be left alone. He certainly wasn't put in a position where he explicitly took a stand for womens' rights or indigenous peoples rights. I'm not saying it ruined the game or anything just that Arthur's wokeness is so conspicuous and incongruous with his other (potential) character traits that it silly.

>Rockstar missed the golden opportunity to have Arthur yell specialised racial slurs at lower honour ratings

It did feel more "natural" in 1.
I can't remember the name of the mission but I remember John talking with Jack. John was saying something along the line of
>any man treats me right i do the same and don't judge him for being different.
>that's what the good book says don't it?
Jack says I don't know, sir. You never read it to me.
>John
>well i imagine it says something like that
There was also the interaction in Undead Nightmare where john patronizes Herbert Moon. May not be canon, but it felt in character.

its really confusing considering this dialogue only triggers if you lynch 100 blacks either in trees or via horse-drawn carriage
that, and the fact that arthur chants
>FUCK NIGGERS
>FUCK JANNIES
>FUCK ROCKSTAR
really pulled me out of the game, uninstalled right there and then

>We wuz oppressed by evil white cowboyz ; _ ;

>But not really we wuz actually cowboyz n sheeit : D

>Undead Nightmare where john patronizes Herbert Moon
>he deserves to die for being an anti-semitic conspiracy theorist
It always bothered me that you can't save him. Even if I disagreed with someone's politics/beliefs, I wouldn't let them get eaten by zombies if I could prevent it. But he was just there to make a joke and show the consequences of wrongthink.

>that scene where john agrees with bonnie that women would make better leaders than men

Gorilla monkey kike nigger.

>Say Arthur, how 'bout singin us a song?
>A shong eh? Hmm... okay, I think I got one yall know
>Splendid! Take her away!

>Ooooooo mister oh mister, oh sorry I mean miss
>Excuse my misgenderin', this sorta ignorance ain't bliss
>With your hormonal therapy, all the transphobes may laugh
>But there ain't nothin funny bout cuttin your willie in half

>I walked to my sons room, caught him wearin a dress
>With a tear in his eye, he said "dad I must confess"
>I said "Son, it's okay ferya to dress in skirts and night gowns,
>In fact it's all my fault fer not askin fer yer pronouns"

>Yes bigots and fascists deserved a good bash
>I'll smash their heads open like a dilated gash
>cause if there's one thing I hate, one thing I find wrong
>is shitlords who dont know a woman can have beard and a dong

Really Rockstar? A bit heavy handed, no?

It’s been a long time since I watched this video but apparently there’s this mystery that Herbert made a a dead with the Strange Man.
He may have died because he was cursed to pay a price, idk. Don’t really remember what it’s about.

bros is there any mod to get the gang members in free roam to follow you?

>A non-racist southern alive during the old west

It made me drop the game.

just tied him and put him in his store, so that when you uplift the curse you can say he's back from being infected

Bonnie was top cute, I had forgotten about that bit.

I'm gonna play devil's advocate for Rockstar and say you guys are retarded. You are forgetting that RDR2 like all of rockstar games, is supposed to be a satire. the things we see in the game are supposed to be metaphors for our modern day lives, that's how storytelling works. This was never a "simulator" it's a satirical western action game.

These are the same people who made a fictional version of CALIFORNIA, where you can walk into a gun shop and buy a full automatic weapon with cash, and leave without signing a single paper and nobody complained.
Have you ever listened to a the radio stations in a GTA game?

Arthur is an outlaw, he doesn't respect the rules or traditions of polite society. Why would he believe that other races are inferior, when men of other races have not only saved his life and worked by his side. But also as a bandit and thief he's been treated like dirt as well, and can relate with his companions.

is it that utterly insane of you to think that a man who has been killing and robbing indiscriminately since he was a teenager, might have some complex feelings beyond "fuck niggers"?

Besides he's never even said anything half as ridiculous as the memes imply. And you people are retarded for expecting a piece of media made in 2018 to have a protagonist that is bigoted. They want to actually sell games you know, and black men are a sizeable market for actions games in the USA.

I'll end with a final note, not every man in the 1800s was a racist either.
clearly a war was fought to abolish slavery in the US. A lot of union soldiers were white men, fighting side by side with black men. and we know who won that war.

This wasn't an actual line, you dipshit.

>Have you ever listened to a the radio stations in a GTA game?
Yeah getting real people to call in with their complaints about the state of America was pretty based.

Isn't John shown reading a lot at camp during RDR2? I don't mean to say he must have read the bible if he did, but it feels like they're not too sure on how uncultured they wanted him to be.

>Outlaws hated by society
>Blacks hated by society
>Arthur does not respect rules or laws as an outlaw

There's a thing called SOLIDARITY, with other men who share the same interests as you.

I dont remember John reading usually Hosea

It's also finding people who are willing to go against the grain and risk their lives isn't super common.

Am I suppose to read that blogpost just to find out its from a rockstar cocksucker?

Quintessential j-word writing.

Have you even played the RDR games? They incorporate some western tropes but they're not satire by any stretch of the margin.

>Isn't John shown reading a lot at camp during RDR2?
Nah, the only ones I remember reading were Hosea, Dutch, Mary Beth, and Lenny

They aren't other men and nobody outside of living memory thought they were.

he never said that retard.

Red Dead takes itself way more seriously than GTA. It definitely is not satire.

Played it today, you can catch him sitting at the table in Horseshoe and reading fairly frequently. John's learned, but he always gets shit on by everyone else in the gang for being an idiot because he's just not as prone to fruitless introspection as they are.
