Because let’s be honest. Anyone who shotguns the Pinkertons, actual demons, and Nazis to death with no mercy to me is the holiest human in the land, unlike those “christians” who claim to be against those and yet consistently ally with them. 😤🙏✝️

    Beating a debtor near to death wasn’t very Christian. I do appreciate a lot that Arthur does but that mission still haunts me. What a great story

      I’m not THAT familiar with the story of RDR2, but I think Rockstar tries to do their best to show that Arthur is a very flawed man who can switch between doing good things to doing bad things in a whim (but also depending on the player’s actions). It makes him feel more human.

        The mission I’m describing is unavoidable. I won’t spoil it, but it has serious consequences for both Arthur and the plot. It’s the kind of art that really punches you in the gut.

        Tying up clansmen and turning them into red mist on train tracks, feeding them to gators, or just setting them on fire sure never did get old though.
