    I just finished up RDR2, and I have to say-- Arthur is one of the most well-written and dynamic characters that I've ever seen in a game.

    Slight spoilers below.

    His progress through each chapter-- his slow realization of what is going on in the camp after his illness is revealed, his search for what he wants in life. The hard-hitting moments that completely shift his perspective. The themes of the story culminating in one of the most satisfying conclusions I've ever seen for a character. From top-to-bottom, I genuinely think he's one of the best video game characters, of all time.

    He's the perfect complement to John Marston too, who is kinda the deuteragonist of RDR2, which people tend to not even realize until the final mission/epilogues.

    I loved this game man, as someone who doesn't even like many mainstream games. Its story is a masterpiece imo-- the characters, the plot, the literary elements, the small details here and there-- were all incredible.

  • Easily the best character in gaming

    RDR2 isn’t even in my top 10 but Arthur is such a good character

    I wouldn't argue with you. Letting it mesh in my mind since I made the post, Arthur is truly one of my favorite characters period.

    There's so much I want to gush about the game after finishing it. It's crazy. I haven't felt this good about a mainstream game in a long while.

    So many incredible characters, so many good themes. So many kino, cinematic moments. The music. The graphics. The dialogue. The setting. F*** man.

    Thought that was common knowledge, John Marston had nowhere the depth Arthur had.
