I posted on Reddit a month ago that Arthur would die and we'd play as John. I don't know how people wouldn't see that coming. I did giggle like a little kid when you do the initial Jim Milton missions and they riff on the music themes from RDR1. Great stuff.

Escobarbarian posted:I’m in epilogue 1 now and just started the mission “Jim Milton Rides Again?” or whatever it’s called and oh my god I LOVE Marston’s pyjamas I only know of the optional ones where you go with John. In one, Micah shoots you in the head, and in the other you just crawl up the side of the mountain and die watching the sunset.

Capn Beeb posted:Do stranger missions still pop up for John? I want to be sure I get all the missable trophies this time as I'm a dumb idiot addicted to meaningless pixels Yes, and they're voiced and everything. The sheer amount of stuff John talks through after the main game has ended almost makes me feel like this game was going to be John the whole time and at some point they added Arthur as the protagonist. I mean Stranger missions, he says the names of the bounties you go after, has conversations with other NPC's and the whole nine. Also the loving Time Traveler collection bit is amazing.

I'm honestly regretting finishing the story now. I always try to platinum good games, but a lot of the trophies for this are hot garbage (I'm not mashing X for 10 hours for some of the stupid Gambling challenges). I think I'm burnt out.

Do the bandit challenges unlock at a certain point or does it open the first time you hold up a townsperson? I think I'm going to start a new game and do bandit Arthur. I got the trophy for doing all of the good honor story missions already so i can be bad now.

I NEED the soundtrack. The little jingle that plays before John goes to Hanging Dog in the Epilogue and the revamped theme during that shootout. I loving NEED them.

vainman posted:It's weird how many story beats revolve around John, Jack, and Abigail being in danger. John alone gets captured or "killed" at least three times. This feels really strongly like the devs are nudging fans of the first one every time. Like "Eh, eh? You know he lives!"

HatJudge posted:The postgame in general is a pretty big letdown for me. For a game that just told a story that I really enjoyed, to then shrug and say "just ride around or whatever..." I don't know. Hit the nail on the head. I had this amazing experience enjoying the game as Arthur. Then he got sick and I KNEW he was going to die. So I pushed through the story because playing as sick Arthur sucked. Then I hit the end game after the epilogues and I just lost all steam. I still want to 100% the game, but I already have most of the legendary hunts and a lot of challenges done. I don't have the heart to start the game over from scratch to do them all again as Arthur, there are too many other good games to play right now.
