The way Arthur swears the whole game that he’s not a good man even when you’re doing honorable actions. Sorry his characterization just kills me and he’s actually quite relatable on a few fronts

So far I've gotten through the initial battle at the cabin, rescuing John, and then the hunting tutorial with Charles.

One of my main memories of my original playthrough is becoming an unstoppable war machine with dead eye by the end, so having to go through these first few missions with no dead eye and two years out of practice was a rude awakening. I didn't die over and over on the wolves like my first time around, but it was still embarrassing how many times I missed. And how many times I missed those deer with the bow.

I'd completely forgotten how much I suck with the bow. I can't wait until I have a scoped rifle again so I can actually be decent at hunting.

One thing I've done that I didn't do before was pay more attention to everyone at the Colter camp. A lot of little moments I'd never seen before, like Mary Beth telling off Arthur for picking on John. I missed these characters so much.

I love rdr2 as a game, but forgot how much I hate every part of the story that revolves around both Micah and/or Dutch. It’s just a pattern of one of them coming up with literally the worst plan, Arthur expressing his doubts, them saying: ‘Arthur you need to relax. This will be easy.’ Then everything predictably goes to shit. Rinse and repeat. Like if a game is going to make me work with idiots, at least give me an option to fucking shoot them.

I love Arthur Morgan and his big fluffy coat

I do love how Arthur will note down every little thing in his journal EXCEPT the time he was visited by a ufo, which he had zero reaction to

[arthursfuckinghat]

This might sound really odd but meeting Roger Clark has weirdly helped with the underlying grief you have for Arthur and his story like naw Arthur's not dead I met him the other day he's fine dw

something I don’t see discussed too often is the vein in which arthur morgan panics when being perceived. in one of the colter missions arthur mentions to charles the severity of their situation— riding out from blackwater, weathering the storm, etc. and charles aptly responds “you’ve had a lot put on you.” arthur then backpedals and is like “i didn’t mean it like that, just.. a lot to think back on.” or later in chapter 2, there’s jimmy brookes recognizing arthur from blackwater & calling him out. arthur denies the accusation repeatedly, but jimmy doesn’t let up. lying low is difficult with having any loose ends, so naturally arthur chases him down. after choosing to rescue the guy from the cliff edge, jimmy commends arthur for saving his life and refers to him as “a good man.” the look arthur gives to this is like a switch being flipped. again, he backpedals, despite the added risk of being recognized, now reaffirming that he was not only in blackwater but a bad man who kills people. it’s pocketed moments like these that really put a spot on arthur’s insecurities. ones that chip away at the armor. he’s the right hand man in a gang— a surrogate family— the one who’s supposed to project strength when tumult falls upon them. he can’t been seen as anyone buckling under the pressure. arthur also has an innate goodness that’s lost in the fog of his misdeeds he believes define him. he should never be called a good man. arthur has a reflexive retreat when people peer beneath the surface level. it challenges the narrative he’s built around himself, the identity he’s convinced himself he must uphold. he wraps that persona around himself like a warm blanket & stretches that blanket thin because that’s all he understands. that’s all he knows. that’s all his life has allowed him
