CowBoii Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I was thinking about this and I think I would have gotten more out of the game in the moment had they not even shown him in the trailer. Like imagine just playing the game and suddenly a young John appears. I would have loved for that to have been a surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kean_1 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Meh, no big spoiler for me given what we already knew from the background. ....and they didn't show enough to really spoil any other surprises. I'm ok with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now put it together in this order "Arthur","John","Jack". Profound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jACKx Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I am not bothered either way as I was expecting to see him after we saw the second trailer. You know it involved Dutch's gang and the time frame was a bit obvious so it was a given. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinXX Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I like knowing because it was something I was wondering since I first heard they were doing the second one. I mean I loved John in the first game, his role and character through the entire game was part of the reason I enjoyed it so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of assumed he was going to be in it anyways and they really didn't give away much at all pertaining to his role in the story so I am not fussed.

I think it's safe to assume Rob Wiethoff will be voicing him too, as everything around this has been hush-hush so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this aside, I really would like to see one of my favorites from the original -- Nigel West Dickens. But as this is a prequel, and Marston never met Dickens before the first game, I figure his inclusion is highly doubtful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was actually a representation of my own mind being blown. ......as Arch mentioned. There were a couple other head-scratchers from that day as well that built up to it.

I could make babies to his voice so I will gladly welcome it back. I realize how wrong that sounds but he made John such a badass without John even being a villain or anything.

I can understand that but I think many players wanted to know as he is a beloved character and seeing as it is a prequel, it wasn't difficult to guess that he would be around.

CrabApples Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I am fine either way. I was just as happy to see him in the trailer as I would have been to see him in the game. We don't know how he will be introduced or what role he plays in the story so there is still a lot to enjoy from his character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dIV4r Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Knowing now that he is in the game, yes I would have rather not known but knowing me, I would have said I wish I knew sooner had it been the other way around. I am hard to please when it comes to things like this in video games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X S Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 We would've known immediately once we started playing, anyway, because Marston was in the gang. From what I can tell, this about Dutch's gang being split in two over the bank robbery that causes Marston to eventually be caught by the Feds. When Dutch is faced with turning himself in, he abandons Marston, causing a rift within the Dutch gang. I'm assuming that Arthur breaks off, along with a few others against Dutch. I'm also pretty sure that the woman who says "he'll never change," in the 3rd trailer is Abigail Marston, because Abigail was a prostitute who often hung around the gang, which also leads me to believe that Dutch envied Marston, therefore selling him out to authorities. In the original RDR, Dutch makes a few backhanded compliments to Marston about Abigail, implying there's some kind of history between them. That's just my theory...

Is he going to be in the gang at the beginning of the game though? I don't remember the years he was in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
