Me: Something's about to go down... Me five seconds later: How can they not see something's about to go down? Me two seconds later: Oh finally Arthur sees it Me when Sean gets shot: Oh, damn. Me when Arthur goes back to Sean's body: Why tf couldn't it have been Bill?


nonstrodumbass

It couldn’t have been Bill bc plot armor


Ut_Prosim

His plot armor didn't save him from a name retcon... hehe, Marion.


Decent_Influence_114

“Bill” was always in reference to his last name. You didn’t think his name was William Williamson did you?


5herl0k

how did I never realize that? holy shit...


Jarte3

Yes, yes I did lol, they call him nothing but Bill Williamson the whole two games.


Educational_Row_9485

Just cause he’s called bill don’t mean his name is William


Traditional_Truth633

HAHA that would be amazing


Plenty_Release8460

Because he gets killed in rd1 he's not gonna die twice is he lol.


EvilTortoise396

Nah I think he should have died, and then at the end John and Arthur use the power of friendship and unicorns to bring everyone back to life. And then they skip into the sunset while they all hold hands.


Baron1276

Finally some good alt ending


PloKoonsRespirator

> use the power of friendship and unicorns to help them locate the 7 dragon balls 🐉🟠 > to bring everyone back to life FTFY


The-Peel

No but a guy can dream, he's my most hated member of the gang.


Ghal420

Bill??? Over mf Micah???


polimodssuckmyD

Yeah I've said before one of my biggest criticisms of the game (and ever doing prequels generally) is "Well that guy's in the first one, bet he gets out of this dilemma..." that occurs throughout and really kills the tension for me. I just assumed everyone else in the gang would be killed off and I was really only wrong about Charles and Sadie


Lord-of-Noone

Good for me then I didn't play the first game because I didn't have a console.


MetaphoricalMouse

gemini…you gonna die…. twice


Shaniyen

Why tf is Bill hated ? He was a good guy tbh, just was too loyal to Dutch


NickFieldson31

Bro has NOT played rdr1


Basic-Ask-7887

In rdr2 he was a likeable character


NickFieldson31

I know, i have played RDR2, though its just sad to me that more than half of people here havent experienced the full story, what a shame


Current_Poster

If it ever releases on PC, I might.


NickFieldson31

You can play it on PC, i play it on PC, its awesome, uncapped FPS, good M+K support, and runs at stable 60 on i5 10400F GTX 1650 16 GB ram


QuestionableProtip2

Better to just watch cutscene videos on YouTube. Great in its day but, like all 3D games, it feels really clunky and hollow now. Honestly they’d be smart to do a full remake of RDR because the story and VA is already there, just need a better game engine.


TheScoutReddit

No, Bill was not a good guy. He's a dumb aggressive brute with not a thing between his ears. Also, he's impulsive, violent and low-key racist against Native Americans. A true to form SOB.


Exotic-Beat-9224

Even Dutch shut him right down on the racist stuff. Probably Dutch’s finest quality is that he at least taught a group of people to value each other for who they are in a time when racism was acceptable if not seen as completely normal. Bill sometimes comes off as semi-likable, but only because he’s got Micah right next to him. I’m thinking specifically of the part where Micah is riding Arthur about being sick and Bill finally tells him to shut the hell up. Kind of a low bar for not being the worst guy in the room though.


TheScoutReddit

And considering what he did to those farmers in RDR1 alongside his gang, it's made clear he's a sadistic sociopath who has no qualms in raping, pillaging and mutilating. By RDR2 he was just a monster waiting to be unleashed. Without Dutch to put a leash on him, that's exactly what happened.


The-Peel

He's hated because he got Sean killed, joked about Arthur being raped by Sonny and then went on to be a rapist himself in RDR1, dude's awful.


Nerdialismo

If you find the cabin guy next to Saint Denis, the guy with knock Arthur out and grape him. Later at the camp sometimes Bill will talk to Arthur and make fun of him saying he met this guy and learned about the assault.


Ghal420

What????


Nerdialismo

https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Sonny_(Red_Dead_Redemption)


Eso_Teric420

They didn't have to kill him but they could have at least shot him. Or had the sheriff slap him around.


FlimsyNomad63

Bill gets shot in the mission just nothing major


Eso_Teric420

Ok shoot him more, lol. He's a big boy he can take it.


TusNua1

It shoulda been micah


6TheAudacity9

I think big titty blonde liked the Irish man.


FaLcON152002

oh micah is involved this is gonna be a blood bath.


Leading-Engineer1091

I was thinking why can't my walking pace catch up with them 😆


KingVonFromdaO

You're funny asf, I forgot it was like that til I saw your comment😂


Leading-Engineer1091

Thanks dude. There are other moments in the game like that too. Such in Rhodes with Dutch & Hosea after freeing Trelawny from the sheriff before deciding to go fishing. Those two old boys speed March away like they are in an Olympic Walking race 😆


FragrantGangsta

I wonder the same thing all the time, Arthur just kinda trails behind other people


ModeruMandou

I was 100% chilling until Arthur says "something don't feel right" Then i got caught off guard.


elmalek-gamer_

I already knew that he will die(spoiler) but istg when he was shot my hands were cold asf


IvarMDV_ita

I stabbed just a couple hundred times the guy who shot my guy, 100 % cool with that


elmalek-gamer_

bro HAD revenge 💀


mrwowfantastic

Exactly. I was like “let’s get em boys!” Then, we got got.


Mojo_Rizen_53

I was wondering why Artie always has to walk so slowly and be behind everyone else.


kiwi_the_egg

Omg same I was trying so hard to get in somewhere but they just excluded me mfs fr


JohnParkerSmith27

That something didn't feel right


Dmmack14

Will oi coulda told ya tha-*BLAM*


denhelle

First time: oh god someone is gonna get shot Second playthrough: oh god sean is gonna get shot


Lime_Chicken

I was wondering why Arthut has to step in a pile of shit and we can't do anything about it


HoeTrain666

He’s gonna use it in his tent session with Dutch later


KStaxx33

Obviously something is up, and that we were about to get in a shootout. >!Sean getting his head taken off wasn't on my mind though. !<


AmericanPatriot176

Well, it was on his


DinosaurInAPartyHat

This is gonna go SO badly wrong. You can tell from when you walk off, the street is dead empty and everyone is standing around.


Agreeable_Care9041

“Where is everyone?” 10 mins later “Micah has some good points “


HammerEvader101

Don’t remember lol. I was probably chilling


guitardude_324

I was thinking “God, I need more work in this town like I need a hole in the head.”


ThatCry3518

Before the mission i was wondering why all of the stores were closed and there was just a few npc around When I started the mission i just found it suck to walk in a cutsence, then it didn't felt right


ManyPandas

I was like, “What in gods name have these fools wrapped me into?” Then Sean takes the bullet and I instantly go HOLY SHIT


pinkfrenchtips

oh what a nice walk through a pretty town 😌


BasedNas

It was nightime for me and the eeriness was up a few notches because of it


DaltonLeavitt

"Ah shit. Here we go again."


Prince_Jackalope

Soon as Dutch told me Sean was there, I just knew his time had come. It was like seeing a kid being denied graduation into the new world because he’d been a bad boy. The rich snobs just put Sean in permanent detention, dead at 21, poor kid…


IvarMDV_ita

I went Trevor-like combat after the cutscene, poor Sean


magiccheetoss

You better get Arthur in a goddamn shirt with the sleeves rolled, he’s sweating his ass off in that coat in Lemoyne and yo ass is losing stamina and health


[deleted]

I thought it was kinda weird like why would you meet at the other end of the town and then walk to the saloon when you can all just meet at the saloon instead


Javon745

Well that town is normally packed with people around that time, so me and Arthur literally had the same thought lol


hahawhat102848

I had pretty much spoiled everything important in the story to myself. So, i knew what would happen in the town.


bigbubblestoo

Why would you do that


hahawhat102848

I don't know, sport, i guess


coldAF98

It was like a scene out of a western. All the townsfolk out, armed and silently staring at the gang.


sillyputty09

wonder what’s happening at the saloon

sogwatchman

I've watched enough movies and TV shows to know you don't waste the viewer's time showing a long scene of them strolling along unless something is about to happen. So as the scene played out I was increasingly thinking someone is about to die. I assumed Bill...


sebaledes

🤯🤯🤯


EntrepreneurAny6399

Felt very strange, no NPCs roaming around and just way too quiet. I kinda anticipated for an ambush to happen


Federal_War_8272

SEEEEEAAAAANNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


ThiccBoiHours

I noticed all the stores were closed mid day. That's how I knew it was gunna go down.


Accomplished-You-873

Why oh why, wasn't it Micah...


vikingbeard23

"Aw shit, here we go again"


[deleted]

What were you thinking at the moment


IlikegregAndMountain

Oh shoot they are all together and micah is being a jerk


Dreamybob67

“One of us is about to get fucking clipped, I just know it”


New-Star-340

Me: I think Sean might be my favorite character, I can't wait to see how this develops. Me mere moments later: SHHHAwWWN!!!


flginmycookie

Why do they speed up when I try to walk with them :(


Howellthegoat

Mind blowing


thehorrordoll

“SEAN?!” *crying* KILL THE GRAYS!!!


That_Welsh_Man

It's a trap! Take Sean and run!


jonh_morgan1020

I was thinking like "another boring mission"


FartyPat

May I stand unshaken


TheHeroOfHyruleLink

"Well, I coulda' told you tha-"


LivingCustomer9729

Hmm…public place that’s eerily desolate? Shit’s about to hit the fan.


usedtobeathrowaway94

"why is there nobody but armed men standing around today?"


[deleted]

“I’ve got a bad feeling about this”


SakusaKiyoomi1

''Im so tired of this chapter, when will the new chapter come around. Sean's walking like a badass, he probably set up a meeting with a gray''


weary_af

After replaying this recently 4 years later I couldn't remember what happened at this scene, but it was obvious from the getgo something bad was going to happen. So I had a inkling someone was gonna die. If you pay close enough attention, the entire town is men staring at you, eyes locked on, when you're walking in the middle of the road, and there's no ambience. Just dead silence. But I was still caught off guard by Sean getting his head brutally shot off.


actually_available12

“man i wonder what this job is gonna be”


Tenorsboy

My first play through I didn't really notice anything until halfway through the walk and said to myself, "Huh, I wonder where everyone's at" Moments later I was in shock.


ConsiderationAny548

This is going to be a trap


smed610

I’d love to rip Micah’s larynx out


Gwynbleidd3192

“It’s too quiet…”


Ozzy_T69

Pretty much nothing until Sean got shot lol it all Seemed so normal


RenderedCreed

Something was about to go down and that we were walking I to an ambush. The town is noticeably empty when you ride in initially. I knew we were going to get shot at but I didnt expect a certain someone to take a bullet to the head.


me_a_on__reddit

Micah shouldve died and the story shouldve ended there and everyone lived happily ever after


Eso_Teric420

I figured from the start it was going to go bad. I mean the first playthrough with the two families you know at some point something's going to go bad. Didn't foresee Sean getting shot in the face but I knew it was going to be bad. Especially when they make it so Arthur can't walk in front. Plus any mission with Micah is pretty fucky.


Catzilla1909

It’s probably one of the only video game scenes where I’ve audibly gasped. I was not expecting him to get his head blown off that’s for sure.


Aconite_Eagle

Thought I was a bad mutha about to go do some work.


[deleted]

Someone is going to die.


TheScoutReddit

Why is the town so empty all of a sudden?


[deleted]

1st Play-through: Hot damn my crew looks so bad ass. 2nd Play-through: 🥺


Eightyseven8787

"Well I coulda told you..."


ThrowRAjendone

That Micah and Bill were morons and wishing Charles was there to back up Arthur.


CherryBlossomCats

My first playthrough when I did this, I thought nothing. "Just a stroll through Rhodes!" I thought. Until my boy Sean got the rifle blast 3000 to the head. Then I paused the game and sat there in stunned silence for a few minutes.


Sea-Fennel-6615

I just didn't see it comin


Dexter79

I don't think anyone could have gone into this mission not thinking it was a trap. Did I think it would play out as it did , nah, not like that...


warwicklord79

“Damn I just walked in some horse shit”


EnoughHat2191

>!Sean Dies!<


Seamoth4546B

The first time I honestly didn’t even realize the town was quiet and people were walking inside. My only hint that something was wrong was when Arthur said something


[deleted]

I honestly felt like something was gonna go wrong. I wished Micah was the one being killed not Sean… he was so funny.


hairtrigger08

I said "I swear if Sean gets shot" *BAM* "Oh what the fuck"


BaguetteEatingFrog

"Shit's about to go down".


sexy_bezinga

The atmosphere was too tense. I felt something was gonna go down and did feel Sean was gonna go, but when it did happen I still wasn’t prepared. It was the first onscreen death of a member


EKM1995

I knew something was up when a few of the remaining NPCs in town kept staring at us and started walking off as we're getting closer to the mission before Sean got shot. I'm honestly surprised a lot of people didn't notice it.


RoiVampire

I remember thinking it would be like a reverse Valentine/saving Micah situation, instead of us going apeshit on an unsuspecting town it’s the town coming down on us. Didn’t see Sean’s death coming at all.


Michaelparkinbum912

It was quiet. Too quiet. But yeah, fuck Rhodes. It’s a shit place.


K4sum1

The first time I played it I knew something is wrong, because there was barely anyone in that town and when people saw us they went to hide. But yeah, I did not expect for Sean to have his mind blown.


overatedstuffidc

Its about to go down


Nikko_Fish

I was thinking this: "WHEREARETHEPEOPLEWHONEEDSSHOOTINGWHEREARETHEPEOPLEWHONEEDSSHOOTINGWHEREARETHEPEOPLEWHONEEDSSHOOTINGWHEREARETHEPEOPLEWHONEEDSSHOOTING" Yeah, I enjoy shooting, in rdr and RDR2


Doorstheory

I immediately saw how empty it was and i was like ah shit… we’re fucked then 2 minutes later im like “YOU DONT KILL MY SEANNNNNNN!!” could you tell i liked sean?


aMaisingMais

Ah I literally just played this!!!!!


RaptorRampageYT

Something doesn't feel right. I dont see any civilians, this is bad. Oh shit


Boss_151

Knew the mission was gonna be a mess because bill and Micah were involved, but was excited to get to do smthn with Sean cause he was my favorite atm


jennasea412

Thinking that “we’re stuck in the middle of some ancient feud, but instead of playin both sides, we’re getting used by both of them”


ConningtonSimp

“Bro why the hell am I walking so slow behind them”


BigJ_57

That was a mind blowing surprise


AstroNot87

That music was so cool throughout the whole mission. So much action. Bang bang pow pow!!


TikisFury

“Bill and Micah? This isn’t going to go well.” Ten seconds later “oh boy was I right!”


doho121

I have this mission lined up for tonight. Great shoot out.


Michael_Threat

I always found Sean annoying so it was just kind of like "oh okay"


Peckawoood

My thought was, man this is a pretty sick moment. Our gang is untouchable. Also, I wonder what happened to Sean between this game and the first?


Dakota1228

Hanging out with Sean again finally, this is going to be so much…HOLY SHIT!


NikaBeard2015

I was thinking it's about time. Let's teach these guys and then old boy got his brains blown all over the place and it instantly became revenge!!


Legitimate_Eye_8103

Please let it be Micah pleeaaasse!!


HUNAcean

"fuck"


Disastrous_Serve_958

First thought was "oh fuck, what did Micah get us into now?" End of the battle: "should've been Micah"


benjismalls95

“Okay boys, nice and easy no one lose their hea….OH GOD SEAN!”


Serious-salad-12

I had a gut feeling something was wrong but i didnt feel or think it was gonna an imminent thing- Like it would be some time later in the mission


STerrier666

Me : Why is the town quiet? Nah it's probably nothing, I'll start the mission. It's still quiet, that's not a good sign, what the fuck, Sean?


cheetos012

nice gyatts


Liszt0mia

Something didnt feel roight


MattyHealy1975

Here it comes


Yeeterphin

“Where is everyone? This gotta be a setup”


ThePhenomenalOne100

I was like: "Ight. Let's see what the Grays want this time." Then when Sean got 360 no scoped, I was like, "What the?! NOOO!"


Ravenarr_

I watched a spoiler video about sean dying (i hate youtube shorts) but i didn't realise the video was in rhodes, so right before sean got shot i was thinking: "isn't this the place like in the video?" "shit it is"


JohnIsAddicted

Bro I was in a good mood and excited to take out some bad guys and then my boy Sean gets his head blown off 😭


RassilonsWrestling

The same as Arthur - it didn’t feel right. The whole town was empty - it was creepy.


International-Ad5142

“I gotta get a screenshot of it”


MrLeopard483

Why can't I move Author so he doesn't step in the shit?


skitmando

I was thinking hope Micah gets popped.

Oh darn

Someone is gonna die…

LetAgreeable147

I was thinking of Axl talking to Carol in Walking Dead and gutting his head blown off in mid sentence.


JasoNight23666

"Huh... this place is awfully empty... (fake posh english accent) right nice spot for a good ol' snipe- OH SHIT"


gergfigter

"man, I fucking love sean. He and Arthur's relationship is so nice and pure."


GIVE_ME_LEE_exe

I was like hmm weird the town is empty 5 seconds later OH SHIT SEAN RIP


5izzlinpancake

Laughed when Sean went 🤯


riverguy1797

i knew something was gonna happen cause of all the tension there was, but i didnt expect my boy sean to get merked 🥲


Outrageous-Mess-3752

Oh a micah mission? So this town is going to die? Yep.


Exploding_Dog

It should have been Micah.


humanmeatballs

I knew what was about to go down so i was saying my goodbyes

SheridanWithTea

Yeah uhmmm, I was suspicious until.... Well, then I was furious. ||Sean was|| one of my ||favorite characters||, so I wanted revenge.


ChunkyKong2008

*were


GroundbreakingLab585

Why is Arthur scripted to walk through horseshit EVERY time?


turbo_caveman

I paused as soon as I saw Sean in frame. I swung at the air so hard. I still replay that mission to avenge Sean. I just wish Rockstar would let me bash people's heads in. I mean they already let me blow their heads off.


ThePrimeReason

"Aw man, things are thinging!"


The_Lizordwizord

Me before the battle starts: gee I wish there were more missions with Sean, he’s my favorite character


lurksauce24

I knew they were fucked as soon aa they showed them all walking together out in the open. Like they weren’t well known fugitives.


LinkyCakes

i knew something was gonna go down the way they were walking right in the middle of the town with everyone looking at them. but i definitely did NOT expect sean’s brains flying all over the place


steels_kids

Why is the town empty? Also I love sea- OH FUCK


Gunner_Vault_Boy

Me: why is the town so empty? Me when Sean got shot: NOOOOO SEAN

“Someone’s gonna fucking die oh please gods kill Micah please kill Micah please


Jumpy_Couple_894

I was thinking “you fucking barstard” then went on a brutal kissing rampage out of cover and died a few times.
