It’s actually not that uncommon for actors to get this emotional, most non psychopaths struggle to replicate emotions flawlessly so actors will stir up emotions one way or another.
The song makes it really sad. When Arthur is riding back to camp after saving Abigail and that song starts playing, I immediately start crying. I've played RDR2 so many times now and I still cry on that part. The very first time I played it I had to hand the controller to my husband because I was crying so much I couldn't get through it. It's such a beautiful game❤❤❤
I was unfortunately spoiled by the internet long before I actually played the game for the first time (finished it last week). So going in I already knew Arthur would get sick with TB, that he would die at the end, and you'd play as John afterwards. Despite already knowing all that and then some, this games storytelling was so powerful that I stilled cried, I was an absolute wreck the moment the music kicked in while he rides his way back to camp. I had spent over 100 hours of gameplay before getting to that part, so when it came, it felt like I had to say goodbye to a friend, as corny as that sounds. I didn't want it to end. It genuinely effected my mood for the next couple days, shit I think i was experience grief. So yea this game was amazing. I don't even want to imagine how much worse I would of cried had I didn't know anything beforehand.

Different for everyone but games have really hit that apex now of being just as emotional as any film. Ghost of Tsushima, death stranding and the last of us spring to mind
That scene hits so hard when Arthur says "I gave you all I had." Cause it's referenced a few times. First time I seen it was Molly's poem. Dutch says it to Arthur towards the end. "I never lied to you. I told you the truth. I gave you all I had!" Then, Arthur throws it back at him as his final words. This game was a masterpiece.
Fr, I can’t help but believe that Dutch wanted the best for his boys but told too many lies and made them his reality. Dutch is one of the earliest documented cases of borderline personality disorder LOL.

Fun fact: There's a poem in Dutchs' tent written by Molly about how she gave her whole life to him and every last line in each paragraph ends with "I've nothing left. I gave you all"
Its an incredible journey through old american history, fighting for your life and fighting for your family. Trying to live your days with honour and integrity. Thats not a game, thats an adult thing
No. Red Dead as a franchise is a masterpiece, now I’m calling it ricjt here right now, there will be an RDR3 and irs either gonna be continuing with Jack Marston, or it’s gonna before Blackwater happened and show us how we lead up to that, either way I’m beyond excited even if it’s a long ways from now, this was an amazing experience and I’m so thankful Rockstar gave something so many people agree on is the best, and most realistic game of all time
i feel like even if he did cry he would try to be quiet. in that moment i think he realized how big of a mistake he made and thats why he walked away from micah, if he had cried in front of them he wouldve shown remorse, wouldve acknowledged he was in the wrong and dutch is the kind of person who fully believes hes always right and doesnt admit his mistakes
It wasn't Arthurs death that got me because I knew it was coming but it was the ride back to camp for the last time that got me in tears because I knew it was his last ride and he knew what had to be done and I was crying saying "go get them Arthur"
For me it was escaping with John and the horse gets shot. They actually made us watch our horse die! On my first play through I had Buell, which I kept after completing Hamish's story. That was pretty damn sad as Hamish was the only real friend Arthur made outside of the gang and in my mind he gave him a window to see what a normal life looked like. On my second play through I went through the entire game with the horse you get right at the start at Adler Ranch. That boy went through everything with Arthur and when I realised that mission was coming up I just knew what was coming. Seeing Arthur say thank you this time around almost damn broke me.
@@2KXMKR i had this beautiful white horse my last playthru and before that final mission as Arthur i took the horse out to a beautiful field and spent time with her then took the saddle off and set her free. 😢
I’ve been gaming for 25 years, RDR2 is the only game that has ever made me cry like it did.. breaks my heart to know that it’s going to be another 10+ years at this rate until we see another one.
@@mrOGbobbyjohnson I still play it on the ps4. Best movie licensed game rockstar has done. The combat is the style of a gritty brawl in which I’ve never saw in a game. Honestly a fucking gem🤟🏼
@@Spurscoys1781 I have played it, I was looking forward to it if Im honest. repetitive story. The island part was ridiculous, the characters were all 2 dimensional. IMO I didn’t enjoy it took me 3 try’s to complete it. Rdr1 was amazing because it was original. Nothing like it before apart from maybe red dead revolver or GUN. It’s like gta 5, good detail and world building but terrible story and dialogue. Never had any attachment to the characters ATALL. Where as when John died in the first one I was just staring at my screen open mouthed for like 5 minutes afterwards. It felt like you’d worked for something and it was just ripped away from. Basically I went through the motions with rdr2, to complete it for the sake of it. As I said, cool world building and detail. Loved to camp in nice areas and take in the scenery. But that’s about it.
This is considered to be the greatest game because it didn't felt like an ordinary game, You feel what the characters felt. If this became a movie it would've have been one of the greatest movies filmed
Something about it just engrossed the player the way no other game does. Because it doesn’t just feel like you’re playing it. It feels like your LIVING it. Playing as Arthur makes you feel As if you step into the shoes of an actual human being for a few hours, and watching his story unfold is like watching a friend or something
@@krypticunlimited6925i agree, i remember when everyone had that night house party at the shady belle after finding jack and everyone got shit face faded, ngl i went grabbed a lil bottle of jack daniels and got drunk with em even though they were video game characters, it fealt like i was drinking with the homies lol
When i started rdr2 i was expecting it as an all out action game, but it was more emotional than I expected. A masterpiece I say, this is where my money spent was worth it
Imagine putting yourself in Dutch's headspace during that scene and acting through everything he was feeling. No wonder Ben cried his eyes out every take
@@yuurrrrrrrr1 Joel was incredibly difficult to watch. I think with Arthur, you realize in the end it was the only way for his story to close. Joel wasn’t a good man either, but it seemed like he had more to do. Like it wasn’t his time, you know. I’ll always appreciate the story of the last of us and part 2. But I, like many other fans of the series, will never forgive naughty dog for what they did to Joel. Along with denying us our revenge in the end.
@@jackf1830 to be honest with you i started my tlou2 play through when it came out and finished it last month i stopped playing after joels death it was way to shocking for me the games AI weapons etc is goated but i cant even think about that scene because even after these years i stil shed a tear it felt like Glenn 2.0 i wasn't even mad i was just sad
Even this video gets me choked up.... Hearing the song... Seeing the scene.... I have thousands of hours, in multiple play throughs and I still sob like a child every time.... Even standing at Arthurs grave as John, I get the biggest lump in my throat and I literally cannot walk away... This game is an absolute masterpiece, I don't think will ever be beaten... And I love how the actors refer to the characters as themselves... "When *I* stood on his hand" and "I walked up this rake..." etc.... It shows how truly invested they were in the characters. Absolutely superb.
You know you've hired the right actors for the part when they literally become the characters themselves 😭 they weren't portraying a fictional being, they were living life as Dutch, Micah and Arthur for the 10 odd years they spent making this masterpiece 😢 no words... Only tears
As players we attached to Arthur enough to cry in the end. Imagine the voice actors who spends YEARS recording thousands of voice lines for their characters for which they had to feel the emotions, feel the character deep inside themselves… This final was the end of their characters and for some of them, it was the end of a great adventure alongside their collegues at Rockstar’s
But they weren't just voice actors. They were physically acting out every scene like Benjamin just described here. They weren't just recording voice lines they literally had to become these characters
@@amortality999SunRISE. This mission took place in the early dawn hours, concluded at sunrise. Remember his earlier words. He didn't care how he went out, but relinquished that he should face the west, to the setting sun, so he can remember the old times running west with the gang. What Arthur got was the opposite. Facing the rising sun, toward a better future for someone else. A redemption from not caring to giving everything because he really did care.
@@vanspoorsveeplays357 I always thought that the sunrise part was weird. When Arthur gets back to beaver hollow, it was sunset and the rest of the mission didn’t seem that long for it to be sunrise. Did the mission go on for that long in universe or was Arthur just laying there alone me and alive for that long until sun came up? The mission made it seem like he died immediately after Dutch and Micah left.
same here and i usally dont cry for or about anything but after so much time spent with arthur making sure i kept his honor up and do all the good i could yeah i cried so much that my girlfreind said whats wrong becasue i never cried around her so she didnt know why i was cring
I don’t know anyone that played the full story and didn’t cry when Arthur died. So many people were talking about it and I laughed at them. When I played it, it had me messed up for days 😂 I felt like I just lost a brother or something. This game is a true masterpiece
I finished that mission without crying,, then when the first epilogue mission rolled around I paused, put my computer to the side, and cried for a good few minutes. I think it just took a while for it to hit me.
I didn't cry, to be fair. Arthur went out fighting and swinging and I had more admiration for the guy than sadness for his loss. Like it all came to a perfect end. I couldn't cry. As for the horse... yeah that fucked me up
@@tookiwolfpaint5142 Absolutely. The same thing happened to me. Up until the last mission, I was in denial of Arthur's illness because - spoilers - I saw a gif of John in the Epilogue with a beard and I thought it was Arthur, so I convinced myself he wouldn't die. As the final mission happened, I finally came to terms with Arthur's death, but didn't cry. The moment the wagon rolled around & I took control of John, it hit me that I would never get to play as Arthur again and I just started... Bawling, for like a half hour or so. I had to set the game aside for a week or two. It also didn't help that I had just contracted Covid and felt like shit, so the possibility of my own death was evidently buried deep.
First video game to make me cry. And more than once! That last ride playing "That's the way it is" hit hard too. Kinda sitting with Arthur knowing he was in his last days, losing all he thought mattered and deciding to make his last hours mean something good. Damn.
It doesn't help that it's a genuinely great song, too. The words are about Arthur reflecting on his life with the Van der Linde gang, and how he basically watched his family crumble to dust in front of him. Arthur Morgan is 100% the perfect example of a tragic hero.
The moment Dutch stepped on Arthur’s hand made me cry ngl…the only time I’ve ever ahd a tear roll out of my eye because of a movie/game.Truly a masterpiece…
It really did feel like a full movie, this whole video game. I cried from the ride to the camp all through the credits after Arthur's death it was hard really
The complete tragedy of it all is what makes this game series so incredible. It depicts the reality, joys, and consequences of a lifestyle. A way of life that truly existed for people all throughout history. Not just the Old West. Beautiful example of the human experience truly.
I think Dutch in that moment was purely crushed by the realisation that he was solely responsible for destroying everything he had. So many members of the gang died and it took Arthur for him to realise just how badly he messed up.
If the actor's feeling the emotions of the characters they play that's an impressive thing to be real effective as on the actor in real life sense it...
As far as I know, it's cause Micah saved Dutch's life. It's why he was allowed to join. After that, Micah became a snake that whispered in Dutch's ear about everyone else being a traitor, when it was Micah all along...
Honestly… I don’t think there was anything deep about it. That’s part of what made it so painful. Dutch was blinded by his own arrogance. Like when he kept thinking he was outsmarting Angelo Bronte, and got multiple gang members killed from his mistake. He took out his rage from being fooled by drowning the man and feeding him to an alligator. Micah from the very beginning of the game is a schmoozer to the higher-ups. He even tries to appeal to Arthur until he realizes it’s pointless (and when Arthur gets sick and he perceives him as weaker.) Micah did what Dutch wanted everyone to do: told him he was always right. And enabled his greed. From the first chapter Dutch expressed frustration with anyone who even suggested he was making the wrong decision. Micah saw that and took advantage of it. All he had to do was tell him what he wanted to hear… and that’s the saddest part.
There wasn’t much deep about it. It’s simple: Micah was Dutch’s yes man. He got in his ear and fondled his ego, constantly encouraging all the wrong things. He brought out the worst qualities in Dutch, and Dutch was too wrapped up in his own world to realize
Micah would do anything Dutch asked him to do because he simply didn't have any conscience at all. He was a yes man who would murder and kill without question. Arthur on the other hand would actually speak up and question orders if he thought something was wrong. He'd almost force Dutch to consider right and wrong which made their relationship much more strained at times.
agreed but now we know from the actor who voiced Dutch really got into his character his role to voice the man who cared for his gang like family only to treat it like they were tools in the end and seeing how Arthur was on deaths door (really close to it) Dutch couldnt fix the damage that was done but all he could do was walk away and start his own life instead
It would’ve been great if they did use it. Dutch should’ve showed way more emotion while seeing Arthur dying. Arthur was his first “son” he taught Arthur everything.
The fact this game ending brought so many people to tears, including myself, just shows the quality of the writing and the effort that rockstar put into developing this game. An absolute true masterpiece of the gaming world. The horse and Arthur’s both killed me inside and even the fact it brought the actors to tears just shows. RIP Arthur morgan and John marston, fuck Micah
this game felt like a movie to me, i had a protagonist that got me so invested in him, that seeing him go, made me cry the first time i played it, they took Arthur from us in a way, which is what mostly made us break down
If it's anything like GTA 5's story, you're right, it won't be anywhere near as good. GTA 5 feels like it's written by teenagers in comparison to RDR2.

How did you know tf
Dude didn't even have to change his voice. He IS Dutch.
i gave you all i had ...
still makes me cry
Fun fact: There's a poem in Dutchs' tent written by Molly about how she gave her whole life to him and every last line in each paragraph ends with "I've nothing left. I gave you all"
RD2 is not just a game, it’s a piece of art ❤
Its an incredible journey through old american history, fighting for your life and fighting for your family. Trying to live your days with honour and integrity. Thats not a game, thats an adult thing
No. Red Dead as a franchise is a masterpiece, now I’m calling it ricjt here right now, there will be an RDR3 and irs either gonna be continuing with Jack Marston, or it’s gonna before Blackwater happened and show us how we lead up to that, either way I’m beyond excited even if it’s a long ways from now, this was an amazing experience and I’m so thankful Rockstar gave something so many people agree on is the best, and most realistic game of all time
Yes
Cringe
All video games are art. Rdr2 is good art
That man was blessed with a voice...
He is exactly what I thought Dutch would look like
He actually kind of looks like a bigger Dutch!
Imagine if you did hear dutches weeps as he walks away?
That would make the scene so much better.
I thinks it’s better cuz it shows he’s still flawed, h hasn’t truely accepted he was in the wrong
i feel like even if he did cry he would try to be quiet. in that moment i think he realized how big of a mistake he made and thats why he walked away from micah, if he had cried in front of them he wouldve shown remorse, wouldve acknowledged he was in the wrong and dutch is the kind of person who fully believes hes always right and doesnt admit his mistakes
@@DanielSmith-te3dfI think he did accept he was wrong. He probably shed a tear or something.
Fuuuck, that would've broke me
It wasn't Arthurs death that got me because I knew it was coming but it was the ride back to camp for the last time that got me in tears because I knew it was his last ride and he knew what had to be done and I was crying saying "go get them Arthur"
For me it was escaping with John and the horse gets shot. They actually made us watch our horse die! On my first play through I had Buell, which I kept after completing Hamish's story. That was pretty damn sad as Hamish was the only real friend Arthur made outside of the gang and in my mind he gave him a window to see what a normal life looked like. On my second play through I went through the entire game with the horse you get right at the start at Adler Ranch. That boy went through everything with Arthur and when I realised that mission was coming up I just knew what was coming. Seeing Arthur say thank you this time around almost damn broke me.
@@2KXMKR i know that was sad too
The goodbye scene where Arthur gives John his Hat got me the most emotional tbh
Me to brother me to
@@2KXMKR i had this beautiful white horse my last playthru and before that final mission as Arthur i took the horse out to a beautiful field and spent time with her then took the saddle off and set her free. 😢
"I give you all i have, i did"
gave
Wow even after beating the game & hearing the actors take on it looking at the scene actually made me cry My favorite protagonist arthur morgan.
When Arthur said to Dutch whatever I had I give it you 😢💔🥺
Let’s just all agree that rdr2 is one of the best games in video game history.
Top 2o for sure that I have played.
It's the best imo
It’s THE GOAT. There isn’t a single title ever released that is better.
It truly is one of the best fr
The best
Rdr2 is a genuine masterpiece i am so glad to have played it
Arthur's death almost hurts as bad as a real death 😭😢
I’ve been gaming for 25 years, RDR2 is the only game that has ever made me cry like it did.. breaks my heart to know that it’s going to be another 10+ years at this rate until we see another one.
This is the best fucking game ever made…. There’s no arguing
The warriors
@@steph6498 fr bro how does NO ONE remember this goat of a game🤣
@@mrOGbobbyjohnson I still play it on the ps4. Best movie licensed game rockstar has done. The combat is the style of a gritty brawl in which I’ve never saw in a game. Honestly a fucking gem🤟🏼
@@steph6498 I'm sure you'll change your mind once you play rdr2
@@Spurscoys1781 I have played it, I was looking forward to it if Im honest. repetitive story. The island part was ridiculous, the characters were all 2 dimensional. IMO I didn’t enjoy it took me 3 try’s to complete it. Rdr1 was amazing because it was original. Nothing like it before apart from maybe red dead revolver or GUN. It’s like gta 5, good detail and world building but terrible story and dialogue. Never had any attachment to the characters ATALL. Where as when John died in the first one I was just staring at my screen open mouthed for like 5 minutes afterwards. It felt like you’d worked for something and it was just ripped away from.
Basically I went through the motions with rdr2, to complete it for the sake of it. As I said, cool world building and detail. Loved to camp in nice areas and take in the scenery. But that’s about it.
This is considered to be the greatest game because it didn't felt like an ordinary game, You feel what the characters felt. If this became a movie it would've have been one of the greatest movies filmed
Something about it just engrossed the player the way no other game does. Because it doesn’t just feel like you’re playing it. It feels like your LIVING it. Playing as Arthur makes you feel As if you step into the shoes of an actual human being for a few hours, and watching his story unfold is like watching a friend or something
@@krypticunlimited6925i agree, i remember when everyone had that night house party at the shady belle after finding jack and everyone got shit face faded, ngl i went grabbed a lil bottle of jack daniels and got drunk with em even though they were video game characters, it fealt like i was drinking with the homies lol
It does not need to be a movie.
@@pedinhuh16 he didn’t say it should be a movie he said if it was a movie
Tv series
This whole scene deserves so many awards…
Damn, his natural speaking voice is just Dutch. Dope.
Even the actors cried their eyes out. Truly a masterpiece
When i started rdr2 i was expecting it as an all out action game, but it was more emotional than I expected. A masterpiece I say, this is where my money spent was worth it
I had no idea it was going to be as emotional as it was. It blew me away.
And dude, the cinematic scenes with Unshaken playing, freakin awesome.
Same here man really hit hard when Lenny died
It is deep af
He has such a cool voice
Imagine having that voice. One of the cooler sounding voices I’ve heard. Stellar actor and character.
Imagine putting yourself in Dutch's headspace during that scene and acting through everything he was feeling. No wonder Ben cried his eyes out every take
Aurther was the saddest death in game history 😔 😔
I'm torn between Arthur and Ghost.
@@theysayimjustliketrump it’s definitely Arthur, ur not emotionally invested in Ghost like Arthur
its torn between Joel and arthur for me
@@yuurrrrrrrr1 Joel was incredibly difficult to watch.
I think with Arthur, you realize in the end it was the only way for his story to close.
Joel wasn’t a good man either, but it seemed like he had more to do. Like it wasn’t his time, you know.
I’ll always appreciate the story of the last of us and part 2.
But I, like many other fans of the series, will never forgive naughty dog for what they did to Joel. Along with denying us our revenge in the end.
@@jackf1830 to be honest with you i started my tlou2 play through when it came out and finished it last month i stopped playing after joels death it was way to shocking for me the games AI weapons etc is goated but i cant even think about that scene because even after these years i stil shed a tear it felt like Glenn 2.0 i wasn't even mad i was just sad
Every man cried when Arthur died. It's cause we were Arthur and when he died, a part of us died with him. RIP my man.
Even this video gets me choked up.... Hearing the song... Seeing the scene.... I have thousands of hours, in multiple play throughs and I still sob like a child every time.... Even standing at Arthurs grave as John, I get the biggest lump in my throat and I literally cannot walk away... This game is an absolute masterpiece, I don't think will ever be beaten... And I love how the actors refer to the characters as themselves... "When *I* stood on his hand" and "I walked up this rake..." etc.... It shows how truly invested they were in the characters. Absolutely superb.
You know you've hired the right actors for the part when they literally become the characters themselves 😭 they weren't portraying a fictional being, they were living life as Dutch, Micah and Arthur for the 10 odd years they spent making this masterpiece 😢 no words... Only tears
As players we attached to Arthur enough to cry in the end. Imagine the voice actors who spends YEARS recording thousands of voice lines for their characters for which they had to feel the emotions, feel the character deep inside themselves… This final was the end of their characters and for some of them, it was the end of a great adventure alongside their collegues at Rockstar’s
I too can feel Dutch deep inside of me.. 😔 💀
@@joshualeahy2162 bro knew what he was doing quoting the joker ol freaky ass 😂
But they weren't just voice actors. They were physically acting out every scene like Benjamin just described here. They weren't just recording voice lines they literally had to become these characters
@@joshualeahy2162 🥵
This is just one of many reasons why most video games are better than movies.
The greatest story ever told in any game. I cried like a baby.
Arthur Morgan and Joel Miller are the two characters in video game history that I cried the hardest for.
I think Dutch probably shed a tear or something while walking away.
I noticed that Arthur crawls in the direction Dutch walked off. Still following him until his last breath…
@@NorthPasture Nah he more so crawled to the stone where he lied resting, gazing into the sunset
@@amortality999SunRISE. This mission took place in the early dawn hours, concluded at sunrise.
Remember his earlier words. He didn't care how he went out, but relinquished that he should face the west, to the setting sun, so he can remember the old times running west with the gang.
What Arthur got was the opposite. Facing the rising sun, toward a better future for someone else. A redemption from not caring to giving everything because he really did care.
@@vanspoorsveeplays357yeah my bad, i meant sunrise
@@vanspoorsveeplays357 I always thought that the sunrise part was weird. When Arthur gets back to beaver hollow, it was sunset and the rest of the mission didn’t seem that long for it to be sunrise. Did the mission go on for that long in universe or was Arthur just laying there alone me and alive for that long until sun came up? The mission made it seem like he died immediately after Dutch and Micah left.
I cried for an hour when Arthur died.....
same here and i usally dont cry for or about anything but after so much time spent with arthur making sure i kept his honor up and do all the good i could yeah i cried so much that my girlfreind said whats wrong becasue i never cried around her so she didnt know why i was cring
@@19GAME I had bad honor so the rat ( Micha bell) shot Arthur in the face but luckily I'm going to get revenge on that rat 💀💀
🤣🤣🤣
@@cozmo4825 what?
@@19GAMEI’ve been showing my wife youtube vids of gameplay/detail and she is quite impressed. Though I know she’d never play it.
Dutch leaving the money behind in the end was perfect. Made him show how broken he was during RD1
i cried like a fuckin baby when aurthur uttering his last words from his mouth
I don’t know anyone that played the full story and didn’t cry when Arthur died. So many people were talking about it and I laughed at them. When I played it, it had me messed up for days 😂 I felt like I just lost a brother or something. This game is a true masterpiece
I finished that mission without crying,, then when the first epilogue mission rolled around I paused, put my computer to the side, and cried for a good few minutes. I think it just took a while for it to hit me.
I didn’t cry but it made me question life after the game 😂😂😂
I didn't cry, to be fair. Arthur went out fighting and swinging and I had more admiration for the guy than sadness for his loss. Like it all came to a perfect end. I couldn't cry.
As for the horse... yeah that fucked me up
I didnt cry at all. Maybe its because i knew arthur was gonna die anyway. I dont really ever cry to movies or games which is weird.
@@tookiwolfpaint5142 Absolutely. The same thing happened to me.
Up until the last mission, I was in denial of Arthur's illness because - spoilers - I saw a gif of John in the Epilogue with a beard and I thought it was Arthur, so I convinced myself he wouldn't die.
As the final mission happened, I finally came to terms with Arthur's death, but didn't cry. The moment the wagon rolled around & I took control of John, it hit me that I would never get to play as Arthur again and I just started... Bawling, for like a half hour or so.
I had to set the game aside for a week or two.
It also didn't help that I had just contracted Covid and felt like shit, so the possibility of my own death was evidently buried deep.
First video game to make me cry. And more than once! That last ride playing "That's the way it is" hit hard too. Kinda sitting with Arthur knowing he was in his last days, losing all he thought mattered and deciding to make his last hours mean something good. Damn.
It doesn't help that it's a genuinely great song, too. The words are about Arthur reflecting on his life with the Van der Linde gang, and how he basically watched his family crumble to dust in front of him. Arthur Morgan is 100% the perfect example of a tragic hero.
I was emotionally attached to this game for a long time. The story really took hold of me. Very well done, Rockstar.
"i gave you all i had"😭😭😭
You know if both the actors and the characters they are playing both cry, you know it’s a masterpiece
The moment Dutch stepped on Arthur’s hand made me cry ngl…the only time I’ve ever ahd a tear roll out of my eye because of a movie/game.Truly a masterpiece…
Dude that music is gonna make me cry again
I cried too and it was second hand watching a streamer play the game, 100% will cry again when I play it myself.
I love when Dutch leans back in that one shot and you can see him just dissolving.
Ben has one of the most epic voices in the industry
It really did feel like a full movie, this whole video game. I cried from the ride to the camp all through the credits after Arthur's death it was hard really
"I gave you all i had" was the most heartbreaking line that arthur told to dutch and then he relized that he was wrong
It’s amazing to see how connected, dedicated, and emotionally attached the actors are to their characters
The complete tragedy of it all is what makes this game series so incredible. It depicts the reality, joys, and consequences of a lifestyle. A way of life that truly existed for people all throughout history. Not just the Old West. Beautiful example of the human experience truly.
When Arthur says goodbye to his horse that got me.
Arthur Morgan. The Outlaw with a Heart of Gold.
I think Dutch in that moment was purely crushed by the realisation that he was solely responsible for destroying everything he had. So many members of the gang died and it took Arthur for him to realise just how badly he messed up.
The man behind the character is a beautiful human
you know it’s a good story when the actors cry doing it
I like to imagine Dutch is balling his eyes out the moment he’s out of frame
Its funny to imagine this deep beautiful moment being played out in mocap suits😂😂
I think it makes the acting even harder. Saying your lines without cracking up cause you look like a dork.
If the actor's feeling the emotions of the characters they play that's an impressive thing to be real effective as on the actor in real life sense it...
It's my canon that Dutch cried as he walked away
The amount of cut content from this game is mind blowing to me. Almost 60% cut
Might not be popular but theres something deep about Dutchs trust for Micah. Always wondered about their history.
As far as I know, it's cause Micah saved Dutch's life. It's why he was allowed to join. After that, Micah became a snake that whispered in Dutch's ear about everyone else being a traitor, when it was Micah all along...
Honestly… I don’t think there was anything deep about it. That’s part of what made it so painful. Dutch was blinded by his own arrogance. Like when he kept thinking he was outsmarting Angelo Bronte, and got multiple gang members killed from his mistake. He took out his rage from being fooled by drowning the man and feeding him to an alligator. Micah from the very beginning of the game is a schmoozer to the higher-ups. He even tries to appeal to Arthur until he realizes it’s pointless (and when Arthur gets sick and he perceives him as weaker.) Micah did what Dutch wanted everyone to do: told him he was always right. And enabled his greed. From the first chapter Dutch expressed frustration with anyone who even suggested he was making the wrong decision. Micah saw that and took advantage of it. All he had to do was tell him what he wanted to hear… and that’s the saddest part.
There wasn’t much deep about it. It’s simple: Micah was Dutch’s yes man. He got in his ear and fondled his ego, constantly encouraging all the wrong things. He brought out the worst qualities in Dutch, and Dutch was too wrapped up in his own world to realize
Micah would do anything Dutch asked him to do because he simply didn't have any conscience at all. He was a yes man who would murder and kill without question. Arthur on the other hand would actually speak up and question orders if he thought something was wrong. He'd almost force Dutch to consider right and wrong which made their relationship much more strained at times.
You know its good when even actors cry
Micahs actor actively playing out the scene is so funny
I was 42 years old with tears streaming down my face when Arthur died. Never thought a video game could do that to me😅
I cried when the horse died at that last goodbye and I've never had such an emotional attachment to a character as I have Arthur Morgan
It would've made it sadder if you saw dutches eyes start to glisten and get ready to tear up, maybe even one or two would've made it sad as hell
agreed but now we know from the actor who voiced Dutch really got into his character his role to voice the man who cared for his gang like family only to treat it like they were tools in the end and seeing how Arthur was on deaths door (really close to it) Dutch couldnt fix the damage that was done but all he could do was walk away and start his own life instead
When Arthur told Dutch I gave you everything he had.. hit hard he really did give that gang everything
Bro that was so crushing just to see Arthur dying on the ground and say, “I gave you all I had”
It would’ve been great if they did use it. Dutch should’ve showed way more emotion while seeing Arthur dying. Arthur was his first “son” he taught Arthur everything.
Good to know the actors were just as saddened as the players during the final scene
Though I’ve teared up to some games, rdr2 is the only game that has made me cry.
The fact this game ending brought so many people to tears, including myself, just shows the quality of the writing and the effort that rockstar put into developing this game. An absolute true masterpiece of the gaming world. The horse and Arthur’s both killed me inside and even the fact it brought the actors to tears just shows. RIP Arthur morgan and John marston, fuck Micah
this game felt like a movie to me, i had a protagonist that got me so invested in him, that seeing him go, made me cry the first time i played it, they took Arthur from us in a way, which is what mostly made us break down
I’m calling it now.
GTA 6 won’t have a better story.
If it's anything like GTA 5's story, you're right, it won't be anywhere near as good. GTA 5 feels like it's written by teenagers in comparison to RDR2.
Who tf plays GTA for the story?
@@ozziealvarez72 Literally every GTA Story is iconic in its own way and the only thing that ends up standing the test of time.
You basically just let me know you’re a little kid without outright telling me with a take like that.
Dutch walking away crying will always be canon to me.
When his trusty steed said his last goodbye as he laid on the floor after carrying arthur as far as he could.. i cried ... was angry fought micah... then cried again when arthur died... so so sad... the best game ive ever played.
No fictional death affected me more than Arthur Morgan’s. Only fictional death I ever shed tears for.
Ciri from The Witcher 3, Arthur Morgan, Clive from Final Fantasy 16 and Noctis from Final Fantasy 15 are the only times I've ever cried from video games, ever.
Arthur getting on his knees to comfort his horse in it's final moments after being shot was a hard scene
"I gave you all i had dutch"
Hands down one of the best games in terms of plot. All through the series good God damn its so good and emotional and gut wrenching
