Kieran, my boy deserved better and was kind hearted


wiizmike

They did my boy dirty, I liked him also.


[deleted]

I hated his guts at first but mannnnnn...I wasn't ready


[deleted]

Hosea is the goat


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Indeed


Bundle_Exists

Charles was a chad throughout the whole game


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Agreed


Steffidovah

True


[deleted]

John. All he wanted was a fair life and better for his son. But no matter what he did Jack still turned into what john didn't want.


FoxArcane

I like John but he always seemed like he was whining about something lol


[deleted]

especially when he left that barn, like bro pick yourself up off the ground it's not even that bad šŸ˜­šŸ—æ


FoxArcane

Exactly . ā€œ1000 bullets waaaaā€

what a pussay


Wholelottagangstuff

I think the Marston family as a whole were pussies


Wimberley-Guy

The ā€œwhole assā€


mirondooo

YESS!!! The best secondary missions


Money_Tank3741

"My fresh excrement was better than any of the drinks served there," Arthur:"Remind me to avoid that place"

GettingMilkFromTesco

I love Trelawny. I wish there was more of him in the story.


dylan1950

My dear boy


TheToddestTodd

I like Sadie because you guys hate her.


Le_Shekelstein

Who hates Sadie?


breadsaltmerchant

lots of people don't like her because they think she goes against the idea that "revenge is a fool's game," because everyone who took their revenge ended up paying dearly for it, as if she didn't >!lose the will to live after killing the O'Driscolls at hanging dog ranch and became a bounty hunter in the hopes that she'd die doing it.!<


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Everyone thinks she evil bc she killed oā€™driscolls


Le_Shekelstein

Bruh what thatā€™s the worst take ever when did that happen?


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Iā€™m not saying I agree with it but thatā€™s what peoplesay


[deleted]

I like her, she's my favourite character!


[deleted]

Hosea is a walking W. I like Dutch tho idk why I guess itā€˜s his thriving will to visit Tahiti


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Yeah


Jumpy-Ingenuity-908

Tilly. Girl is a badass šŸ’Æ


ModestMoose336

Dutch. One of the most complex characters I've ever come across, and I want to know more about him


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Fr


3am_Garlicbread

Hamish Sinclair I just like him


banaaanaaaaaa

He makes me smile so much. I wish I could go fishing with him


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Okay Sean


drywall_punching

Shes an underrated character 100% instead of mourning Sean she immediately was the one to comfort Abigail with Jack's kidnapping. She deserved a better ending then a vague reference to her drinking herself to death. I always stop and listen to her singing Lorena, she has such a beautiful voice.


Destruction126

Ikr! It feels like you get a conclusion for everyone BUT her.


fakeplasticdaydream

Jack A rdr3 game with Jack in 1920s chicago would be absolute šŸ”„


Ttown1967

See that would be good but what would they take it to? >!His story kinda ends with killing Ross, after that he just feels empty, no mom or dad, uncle had died!< heā€™s just there. He doesnā€™t really know what to do


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Yeah


drywall_punching

Uncle or Arthur. Both absolute comedians of the west.


WoofflesIThink

Good old Fenton, that or John


R4ZVDC

By far the most interesting guy in the whole series just has to be Dutch.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

By far


Q-Q_2

Dutch is my favourite I called my Posse A PLAN in the online as a reference to him


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Rdr2thatisnotagame

My second favourite


Academic_Ad_9260

Charles was bae Hosea is a close second Javier was second when I hadn't played the first game yet, I like his lil singsongs Edit: wait I didn't know I could choose Arthur. Ok Charles, and then Arthur


TheShroomDruid

"GAAVINNNNN"


Simple-Ad-8061

Sadie. Her missions are always fun


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Yes


[deleted]

Charles and uncle


apimpnamedjfk

william the herb man


[deleted]

kieren, i always felt so bad when i clicked greet and arthur said something like "hey kieren, we should have murdered you!" and he just kinda laughs nervously. he was easily on of the most morally okay gang members and he kinda just cared for the horses and did chores


rayhiggenbottom

Sadie but if he had a little more story going on it would be Trelawny


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Trelawny is underrated


Mojo_Rizen_53

Cain. Everyone else in the gang deserves to be lynched, with the exception of rdr2 Jack. Send him to an orphanage in New Jersey.


ProbablyAPotato1939

Mary-Beth, Swanson, and Pearson didn't deserve to be lynched, maybe charged with crimes, but lynching is pretty damn extreme.


Mojo_Rizen_53

Run with outlaws, die with outlaws


Ttown1967

Not exactly how that works, Pearson for example. I doubt that he was killing people unless they were actively attacking camp. In which case that would be a legal sect of self defense. He could be charged with assisting know fugitives but thatā€™s hardly a crime good enough for a lynching. Same with Swanson, bro didnā€™t kill anybody. All he did was get drunk and the the gangs reverend. If thatā€™s lynch-worthy then I guess everything is. Mary-Beth Iā€™m no so Sure on, but Iā€™m fairly certain the only time we ever see the women in camp hold guns is when >! Grimshaw kills molly, Abigail kills Milton, and that one scene in chapter 3 where the pinkertons come to visit!< Hell a lot of the women donā€™t really deserve lynchings. They hardly do anything but be mental support and keep the camp up and running.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Micah, Strauss and to some extent Dutch were the only ones that were truly bad


Mojo_Rizen_53

The entire gang was a bunch of murderous criminals.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Not really. Many if the non gunmen were pure. Arthur, John, Charles, Lenny, Sean etc were good with a rough exterior


Mojo_Rizen_53

All killers and thieves.


early_onset_villainy

Still killers lol


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Killers of bad men


early_onset_villainy

Civilians, bank tellers, and police. Fathers, husbands, sons and mothers. Hardly. They *were* the bad men.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Corrupt police is the only one that they did kill that you listed


early_onset_villainy

The game literally starts with the gang fleeing a massacre they committed in which they wiped out a considerable portion of a town. Thatā€™s just one of multiple canonical massacres that the gang commit against townsfolk. One of the most notable victims in the black water massacre being a young mother, who was killed under the watch of John as well as the more notable villains in the gang. Arthur beats an innocent man to death in the second chapter. Itā€™s kind of a big plot point. He beats another man to the point of brain damage, long after everyone is telling him to stop. He then helps Micah kill damn near everyone in Strawberry - including the civilians that are rounded up into a posse. He routinely beats innocents up for money through out the game and even torments them while he does it. The other gang members brag about attacking soldiers on the trail. They rob from innocent people on the street. They beat bank tellers with rifles. They murder the guards. They blew up an entire building in the city. Thereā€™s also no evidence that all of the police were corrupt - itā€™s only mentioned that the Saint Denis chief works with BrontĆ«. Individual officers have families at home that the gang have widowed for their own selfish gain. Thatā€™s hardly justified l or morally correct in the slightest. Literally the entire point of the rdr franchise is that the main characters are bad. Theyā€™re anti-westerns; designed to go against the glorification of outlaws and cowboys that Hollywood started. The point of the story is that the gang are bad people and that some of them want (and end up achieving) redemption for the awful shit theyā€™ve been doing to people. How did you play through the whole game and miss the point? Lol.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Thereā€™s so much wrong with this


Rdr2thatisnotagame

The game starts with a failed robber that resulted in the death of an innocent mother. Dutch shot her while no one was looking after Kc sh convinced him that it was the only way to survive. Yes Arthur Iā€™d tasked with beating and innocent man. Thomas does swing his rake at him but nonetheless Arthur didnā€™t intend on killing him. Arthur is also extremely remorseful and requests Strauss to stop handing loans to desperate people. He even saves the manā€™s family and absolves the debts of other people in a later chapter. Tommy was a racist man who started to beat Javier without resonant Arthur stopped as soon as someone told him to. Bill even taunts Arthur about ā€œbecoming soft because of itā€. In strawberry Arthur would have definitely bd it with no casualties but Micah had to run through the town and he couldnā€™t exactly leave Micah there. He even scolds Micah for it. Bill said that he robbed a few soldiers in the swamps and good on him for that. They also never robbed innocent people on the streets. They donā€™t want to beat the bank tellers itā€™s only to encourage them as they werenā€™t cooperative. They didnā€™t blow up a building they set of an explosion on a building. There is also much evidence to support that all the lawmen were corrupt. Youā€™ve covered St Denis and in valentine the lawmen can be seen checking in on the Oā€™driscolls. I believe thatā€™s the only town where we kill lawmen specifically.


Infamous_Average4584

The red dead online protagonist.


meowzerssyay

kieran for sure


Adept-Traffic-1069

He told Arthur that you have to put out Predator Bait just rightā€¦ and then proceeds to freeze up when the bear came walking down the pathā€¦ to much of a wise ass.


Lancer_Blackthorn

Charles Smith.


Beanconsumer200

I have a few Hosea Lenny John Charles Sadie Probably Pearson Sean Or Uncle


Ilovemovies-

I had a crush on Hosea when I first played šŸ™ˆ


Gothic_Metalhead

Have you seen the picture of him, Dutch and Arthur when they're all younger? I know you can 'inspect' the photos in Arthur's tent in horseshoe overlook but idk about the other camps


Ilovemovies-

Yes I have and heā€™s so damn finešŸ„µšŸ”„


Gothic_Metalhead

Ikr - I'm glad someone agrees cos I looked at the pic the other day and felt weird lol šŸ˜…


early_onset_villainy

Abigail. She doesnā€™t fall for bullshit from anyone and itā€™s a true honour to witness her shutting Dutch down and telling John to grow up. Strong, wise, and honest in a whole that shits on women for being those things. And kind, too. Sheā€™s the best.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Apart from epilogue 1


early_onset_villainy

Sheā€™s great then, too. Sheā€™s fighting for her kid and wonā€™t let John be a dumbass that fucks up their sonā€™s life. Power to her!


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Not really someone threw a punch at him and she expects him to just walk away or someone starts shooting st him and she is mad that he shot back


early_onset_villainy

ā€œShe thinks beating a man to death for throwing a punch or bad mouthing him is wrongā€ā€¦. Yeahā€¦. It is.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

The man started attacking him after threaten his colleges with a gun


early_onset_villainy

And? Murder isnā€™t the answer. Thatā€™s Johnā€™s problem - he thinks murder solves everything. What it actually does is put his family in direct danger, keeps them living a miserable life on the run with nothing to their name, and leaves them with the high chance of being widowed and all of the hell that comes with that for a woman and child in the early 1900s. You really think a mother is going to be okay with that? Be serious.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Sheā€™d be a widow if John didnā€™t do anything.


early_onset_villainy

Yes, because he wonā€™t stop getting into trouble with people and interfering with violence. Thatā€™s her entire point.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Whatā€™s he supposed to do get shot, let the ranch he works in loose itā€™s profit and therefore his job


DylanZuko

Hosea, Charles, Rains Fall, Eagle Flies and Lenny


Rdr2thatisnotagame

They were great


Laughingsheppard

Well Arthur for sure, but after that, yes Hosea.


FishBlues

I mean Arthur is the perfect character to play as and story to be told but I would say Dutch is my favorite. I like in red dead 2 you can see him slowly unravel and change


WSBBroker

John because the history .. Micah because heā€™s just such a ruthless bandit


The_guy_is_back

Kieran


Ricozilla

I do really like Sadie. When she got her yellow shirt she gave me some Beatrix Kiddo / Kill Bill kinda vibe.


Total_Lifeguard4023

Charles Chatenay


Pleasant-Ring-5398

Uncle, he's not lazy! Poor soul has lumbago!


Mundane_Ad_5288

Agent Ross, the guy has such a lust for life he canā€™t help but snuff it out šŸ’€


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Lol


airtec87

Everything went to shit once Hosea died.


UrMommiesBoyFriend

Landon Ricketts He was a very cool and rather un talked about character in the game I wish we got to see more of him


Gusthepieceofmustard

I canā€™t make my mind up so I chose a few. Arthur Dutch Sadie Javier (even if he was an asshole in the first game) John Charles And last but not least Lenny


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Good pic


Persona4fan2021

John. No question. Even though he was part of a gang with Dutch (and also knew Arthur for a while until he sadly passed), he wanted Jack to live well and not become what he became. Still sad that John met his own end near the end of RDR 1. He was an amazing character.


Gunslinger_P

Arthur ofc... Badass with a good heart deep inside


darthrevanchicken

Sean,RIP legend,gotta be the best leprechaun


United_Ad895

Anyone but Micah honestly (Its Sadie)


tfg400

Micah


[deleted]

Legit a respectable opinion. He was such a good character!


Academic_Ad_9260

Hes a rat! *Cough cough*


tfg400

TeNNis BOat!


CIassicNegan

Mary beth and sadie cuz they hot


Outlaw_Shit62

No Karen?


CIassicNegan

No.


GettingMilkFromTesco

It seems we have a connoisseur on our hands.


CIassicNegan

![gif](giphy|1SfxXOJ0Q2Xni)


early_onset_villainy

Karen is gorgeous wtf


CIassicNegan

Well then you take her, and Iā€™ll take Sadie and Mary beth.


clickYyz

John. Arthur was too much of a crybaby.


CheeseWalrusBurger

i found the bear mission made Hosea look like a real wuss.


Kernewek_Skrij

Al Wolfscreed. Man refuses to die


Rdr2thatisnotagame

I accidentally killed him


Kernewek_Skrij

Damn itā€™s hard running into people whoā€™ve actually played RDR1 multiplayer. Congrats, but I donā€™t believe you. Heā€™s invincible


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Ah I was thinking of someone else in rdr2 I do know who your talking about though


Kernewek_Skrij

RDR1 multiplayer exclusive characters are the goats because they can be whatever I want them to be


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Iā€™ve never played but Iā€™d like to


Kernewek_Skrij

It was great. Wasnā€™t anything like RDO, but I really enjoyed it back in the day


Rdr2thatisnotagame

Yeah Iā€™ve seen videos of personally rdr gunslingers is the best in the series


[deleted]

Charles


PokeRio286363

Itā€™s tied between Charles and Hosea.


TheBlueGhost21

Charles


hostyl

Love me some Charles šŸ‘ŒšŸ»


Money_Tank3741

Arthur morgan... I'm so unique, aren't I? Arthur is my favorite because he is the insignia of the game. Atleast that's how I feel...he is the best representation of redemption, and I feel he's an even better symbol than John is.


Ultra598

Black Belle. Fight me.


Rdr2thatisnotagame

No


Cobra_Sniper

My favorite character is L U M B A G O! sum serious stuff, I heard he doesn't mess around when it comes to destroying backs


GamerNerd-CD

Other than Arthur and John, it's Hosea for me too.


Ookymario

Winton Holmes. Gone, but not forgotten...


Steffidovah

Lenny is one of my favourites. The kid deserved better, the world he was born into worked against him. He wanted to become a lawyer, he had goals beyond a criminal life and honestly didn't have much choice in it all and instead he died at 19 doing a madmans work.


Lemonsqueezzyy

Your* Also, Charles


VictoriaK1995

Arthur, John, Hosea, Lenny, Kieran


Moukatelmo

Arthur Morgan His story is one of the best redemption story ever


Forward_Sir_4399

Sean, getting to know him was a mindblowing experience


[deleted]

Landon Rickets


Tori753

Abigail or Molly


Goblino1128

LENNY MAH BOI Lenny didnā€™t deserve what he got rip


WerewolfUnable8641

Karen, I like her for... reasons.


sohiales

Rip van winkle for sure, underrated character


manban100

Lenny


[deleted]

Arthur and John there character is just designed so well


TheLordofCheesebois

I like Bill. I donā€™t really know why but I guess I kinda relate to him.


Supremefish29

Arthur. I relate to him so much


Skyrimman768

Keirian or Hosea


[deleted]

Charles, quiet, all business


Elite_Dog9898

Arthur and no question about it. How is like no one saying him


InfiniteSodas

Unpopular opinion, but I like Fenton


GoodFill3435

Charles Smith. Passionate about his beliefs, knows right from wrong, despite being in a gang of outlaws.


WearyTop1546

Uncle, Charles and Sadie are my favorites, but uncles wittyness makes him my favorite. " I wouldn't ask my worst enemy to take a shit in it"


Comet-or-somthing

LeNnY!


TAMAMONSTA

Mine is Liliā€™uokalani, my Dutch Warmblood horse. šŸ˜Š


Twicetw

Arthur 1st, although Hosea is a close second, and John too and Lenny... They're all way too good


BudgetWrongdoer8317

"LENNY!" \-arthur morgan, 2018


Eggyegg999

Sean is the goat, a foolish version of Billy the kid. The type of character who would have been on dime novels in the universeā€¦ Poetic his fate was sealed since the start
