Five playthroughs of Red Dead Redemption 2, and I STILL can't accept Arthur Morgan's fate. 😭
No matter how many times you finish the story, there's always that little part of you hoping things could turn out differently. You know exactly what's coming, you know how much Micah is responsible for the heartbreak, but somehow you still find yourself replaying the game and looking for any possible way to change the ending. This time, I decided I wasn't going to let Micah get away with it.
The moment Micah started running toward Arthur, I took my chance and opened fire, thinking I could finally get some revenge before the story reached its inevitable conclusion. But apparently, RDR2 had completely different plans. Instead of letting me change history, the game immediately decided that I was the problem and gave me a mission failed screen for attacking Micah. 💀
It's hilarious how Rockstar gives us such an incredible open world, countless choices, and so much freedom to explore, but the moment we try to interfere with one of the most important story events, suddenly we're not allowed to do anything. The game will protect Micah at all costs, even when every Arthur Morgan fan just wants a different ending.
After five playthroughs, I'm still trying to rewrite Arthur's story, and Rockstar is still reminding me that some things are simply out of our control. 😭
If you could change one moment in RDR2, would you save Arthur or make sure Micah finally gets what he deserves?
