redscrew Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I was thinking about this and talking with a friend. It has been rumored that he will be in the game but not as a playable character. Could this mean we play at the gang members who screw him over? Like what if we see what happened when John got out of it and play it through the eyes of the bad guys? If this is the case... How much of John will actually be in the story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say that we will likely see him in about 25% of the story if this is the case. He will like be there and saying/doing things but most of the time we will likely be playing as gang mates looking to screw him over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GatoNegro Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I wish I knew. All I know is what I read and the voice actor was signed to the game. How much will we see of good boy John? Have no idea but I hope he plays a decent role in the story for sure. Loved his character in RDR1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrylaxx Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I would like to think we will get a decent amount of him in the story. I still don't think he is a playable character but still. Just having him in the story in some way, shape, or form I will be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of people hated him being "morally just" but I found it refreshing for a Rockstar game. It is the reason LA Noire stuck out to me so much.

Anc1entC0re Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I don't mind him being a minor character in the game but I still hope to see him. I am guessing he will be in it at some point. Would be nice to see him be a part of the entire story though... Even better if we can play as him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like playing as a somewhat evil character but John worked so well for the times. You can tell he had a dirty past without even being heavily invested in the story but his turn-around was nice.

DiamondDave Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 It hasn't been said for certain he will not be a playable character so I think he may end up being one of three protags in the game. It would just make sense to have him be in it if we are going through the gang he used to be a part of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make sense but I am pretty sure they (someone at Rockstar) said it was a no-go as for John being a playable character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YellowDragon Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 ^ Yeah I heard the same thing as well. I am fine with not being able to play with him like I said just as long as he is part of the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisCr0ss Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 I wish he would be in the whole thing but if we aren't playing as him, I would guess it is only a small amount. A lot of the story will likely be around gang wars and things of that nature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always had a weak spot for a bad guy turned good so naturally got invested quite easily. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't want him to be a complete after thought. I need my Marston fix!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabApples Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I think we will see more than people are expecting. For all we know, we will be able to play as him via DLC... Now that would be pretty dope in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say that I am normally not the type to like the "hero" in a game but rather enjoy playing the bad guy to a certain extent but John has a place in my heart...

CowBoii Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 A lot more than we are thinking here, I can tell you that. I just have a hunch. He will be in the main trio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him being a playable character in this game would give it an instant 10/10 for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
