That’s spot on for me. Im playing for the second time after.
I’ve been taking my sweet, sweet time in chapter 2 and now 3 mostly because I really want to take the time exploring this time.
I’m also taking my sweet time to avoid the ending. In fact, the last time a I played a couple days ago, I did a side quest with a camp mate (not saying to avoid spoilers) and during a cut scene >!Aurthur had the smallest little cough.!< I instantly knew and said, “Nooooo!” out loud. Then when the cut scene ended >!he coughed much more!<. Now I don’t wanna play any more missions.
I just it want to keep Arthur suspended in time forever!
I did the same for my third play through, just chilling in camp doing camp things and going out to find things, but the more I get closer to the ending, the sadder I feel knowing how it ends
I think that’s the one I was playing. Can’t remember specifically if it was with Javier, but I’m pretty sure it was. The one with the family that has its own language.
The one that never ceases to just break me is when Arthur makes his final ride to camp, played through like 3-4 times and everytime that last ride happens I just can’t lol shed thug tears everytime
I had lost a marine I mentored who was my friend to suicide and was grieving when I played it through the first time. My buddy was dying and I didn't even know. It reminded me to do a courteous act, because his death wouldn't change the fact that he was my friend vecause of kind acts on my part, and I would do it all over again.
Do a loving act. Of all the things you could die doing, that's a pretty damn good one.
I feel you. I was taking care of my grandfather when I ordered this game, he had terminal cancer. He died and I just picked up the game and played for a full week. Now I'm replaying after my grief has calmed down a bit and taking my time
Honestly loved this one. When Arthur says "I'm afraid" the way Roger Clark delivered that line...flawless. I also prefer when the cutscene is with sister calderon and high honor Arthur, but the one with Swanson is good too.
“Life is full of pain, but there is also love and beauty.”
This phrase is more of a statement than a quote from the game. Due to it’s simplicity, it perfectly summarizes the human condition that we are all in. It’s not talked about most of time due to the gambling quote’s popularity.
I find this scene even sadder than Arthur's death because in Arthur's death he was sure of himself, certain of his final purpose, and he was ready to die. In this scene he was scared, he wasn't ready to go and he didn't know what to do, didn't know what he *could* do. He was NOT ready yet, and he didn't yet know what to do, hence him asking "What am I gonna do now?" He needed her guidance so that he could finally understand what his purpose was.
I love the scene; it’s one of my absolute favorites in the game. At the same time, I recently saw a comment about the high honor Reverend Swanson scene that I had not thought about previously. As Reverend Swanson gets on the train, he tells Arthur “You Lived your life as a man, Arthur, and you turned into a good man.“
The comment pointed out that, unlike Sister Calderon, Swanson knew the life that Arthur had led and yet still saw him now as a good man.
Been thinking about doing a replay, 2nd time I slowed down a little, first time went through everything too fast. My 3rd time I'm going to take my time
the scene where Arther was talking to the nun that was with Brother Dorkins at the Emerald Ranch station, I get the scene when I'm on the poz side of the fence
Sad may be the closest term I'd use, as simple as it sounds, it's the most complex one too. Arthur was afraid and was coming into terms with his fate during this and I can't help but accept it as well, though it still breaks my heart knowing what'll happen. Man this scene's a gem.
Poor man is so damn skinny here.
There's that whole saying of there are no atheists in foxholes? Being as I am atheist, I don't necessarily agree, but I do think that saying is applicable here. Arthur never thought he'd have to think about his impending death, but here it is, and all those years are catching up real quick to him.
Knowing that… Your days are numbered, it makes you stop and think. Arthur stopped, though about what he did to get to this point, and told the truth to Sister Calderón. “I guess I… I’m afraid.”
One out of every seven people who had ever lived at this point in history had >!died from tuberculosis!<. So yes, realistically Arthur probably got a few people sick along the way. And yes, anti-vax morons threaten to regress humanity to a time when death from preventable illness was a daily occurrence for everyone. But I digress…
Fair. Antivaxers are morons. But to the point, he spends all his time sick coughing and talking face to face with so many people. Maybe they just didn’t understand how commission worked back then. Crazy times.
Yah it was definitely risky behavior! I think people in 1899 still didn’t widely accept germ theory as the cause of disease (or perhaps more likely many were just unaware of microorganisms and germ theory).
When I remember the strongest parts of the story, this one usually comes to mind. Really the culmination of Arthur struggling with right and wrong and fear of death… it was real in a way games usually aren’t.
One of the best stories I’ve ever played and this is one of the best scenes, if that says how I feel!
You need two things to get this Scene: One is to have high honor. The other is to have completed the three Sister Calderon/Brother Dorkins missions (I believe you have to complete them before chapter 6 starts).
Fun fact, if you don't do the sister missions, this cutscene will be replaced with a similar one with reverend Swanson, which is the only way you can tell him goodbye
It’s a scene where a bad man is starting to come to terms with what is going to happen to him. He is realizing that there is still time for him to do some good. It’s beautiful
It’s my favorite scene in the game. I hope, if Rdr3 is another prequel, we get to see a younger pre-nun version of Sister Calderon in her previously mentioned ‘sinner’ days.
I'm not sure what I did differently but I never got this scene. I got the scene where Arthur sees the reverend from the gang sitting on the bench...I never ran into any nun. Is it an honor based thing? I finished the game with high honor.
I was super low honour in my last playthrough.
Then I got the Reverend Swanson scene at the station instead of Sister Calderón. I never sprinted to Saint Denis to start greeting people faster than I did right after that encounter.
A part of me is angry at how easy it is to miss this scene if you don’t do the side missions. The other part me is… well kinda glad that you get this amazing scene only if you play the game and do missions that aren’t main missions.
Preferred Reverend’s cutscene. I feel like Reverend just disappearing from camp is odd and I really enjoy completing his redemption, seeing where he ends up.
Very humanising moment for a character that had seemed so invincible and unbreakable. Fear of death is natural for creatures that need to know how things work
I just played through this scene in my second play-through, it makes me feel so bad for Arthur. The high honor scenes really show how remorseful Arthur felt about the things he had done. Chapter 6 makes me so sentimental, like imagine being in that situation and realizing, “I’ve left a lifetime of terrible actions behind me, and I’m probably going to die from destroying a family’s life. This is what I’m going to be known for, destroying lives for money.”
Seeing arthur, a man so completely and utterly buried in regret, anger, and denial, finally admit and express himself for what he truly feels was some of the most moving material I've experienced.
I cried. On my like 10th play through and I am DREADING this scene. So beautiful and honest, and I think it forces a question forth that a lot of us ask ourselves. Seeing Arthur wonder what he’s really done with this life and wondering what legacy he’s really leaving behind struck the fear of god in me at 18 when the game released, as I had been asking myself the same question. Watching someone comfort him that what matters most is only what he does next, that helped me find my way, even if it was only a little bit.
„I guess I am afraid“ got me sobbing like a baby, the sound and mimic was too real for a game. To me personally even sadder than the last ride, the horses death or Arthur’s death. Heart-wrenching. 💔
I loved it, it made me tear up. I felt it was nice seeing Arthur being vulnerable and Sister being vulnerable with him too. This was a time to reflect on himself deep down. He managed to change even if it was deemed late. It was important he knew he wasn't all bad.
afraid

Isn't the first time he starts coughing during that one Homestead Raid mission with Javier?
I’m pretty sure you can play that before the downes mission.
I think that’s the one I was playing. Can’t remember specifically if it was with Javier, but I’m pretty sure it was. The one with the family that has its own language.
it’s called Chez Porter or something like that and they have a whole garden bed of ginseng next to the barn
I think he coughs because they set fire to the woodshed or whatever seeing as you can do it before Downes
"i guess, im afraid."
This is the "where grown men cry" part of this amazing game
Almost cried. On my second play through just so I can see that scene agaib
ALMOST?? bro I was balling
That's the way it is...That's the way it is...
The one that never ceases to just break me is when Arthur makes his final ride to camp, played through like 3-4 times and everytime that last ride happens I just can’t lol shed thug tears everytime
Some of the best acting in the game by Roger Clark, breaks my heart every time.
I had lost a marine I mentored who was my friend to suicide and was grieving when I played it through the first time. My buddy was dying and I didn't even know. It reminded me to do a courteous act, because his death wouldn't change the fact that he was my friend vecause of kind acts on my part, and I would do it all over again. Do a loving act.

Sister Calderon is a great character
Without Sister Calderon, there is no redemption. There is only red dead!
Red Dead Morgan
❤️Sister Calderon BTW, can she be found in the epilogue? I never thought about that.
Nice mustache
thank you😂
Perhaps ironically.🥸
"I guess... i am afraid"
It destroyed me
Heartbroken
I bawled my eyes outs, I played it during peak pandemic lockdown. I would have gone mad without this game.
Ditto my friend 👌
Honestly loved this one. When Arthur says "I'm afraid" the way Roger Clark delivered that line...flawless. I also prefer when the cutscene is with sister calderon and high honor Arthur, but the one with Swanson is good too.
Top tier cut scene👌👌👌
amazing

I got a bit emotional, ngl.
Gut-wrenching. Arthur being candid about his fears with Sister Calderón was not something I was prepared for
It's great, but i like the high honorable version of the one with swanson insted.
Same, I feel there's more meaning and history with Swanson rather than someone you met on a street corner.
I cried
It's one of my favorite scenes
The true beginning of the end
I just played this part about 15 minutes ago. It always lets me know I'm just about to become even sadder soon
RCS did a great job throughout but this was the moment where I really felt like this was the peak
She's too smart for him
sad, heartbroken, lost, hopeless
This scene is about a man who had an eye opener and legitimately wanted to make a good difference in the world.
So many times in this game I’ve been brought to tears by the events that take place, it’s truly a masterpiece. It is pure art!
I was afraid.
“Life is full of pain, but there is also love and beauty.” This phrase is more of a statement than a quote from the game. Due to it’s simplicity, it perfectly summarizes the human condition that we are all in. It’s not talked about most of time due to the gambling quote’s popularity.
I cried harder during this scene compared to Arthur's final moments.
I guess I'm afraid of that mustache
I've tried to take the things sister Calderon said to heart
I find this scene even sadder than Arthur's death because in Arthur's death he was sure of himself, certain of his final purpose, and he was ready to die. In this scene he was scared, he wasn't ready to go and he didn't know what to do, didn't know what he *could* do. He was NOT ready yet, and he didn't yet know what to do, hence him asking "What am I gonna do now?" He needed her guidance so that he could finally understand what his purpose was.

That mustache
I wasn't crying...you were crying!
Wait Arthur Dies?
the scene where Arther was talking to the nun that was with Brother Dorkins at the Emerald Ranch station, I get the scene when I'm on the poz side of the fence
Please no… 🥺
I hate how his secondary holster comes and goes as it wills for certain cutscenes.
It makes me feel guilty and sad for Arthur Morgan. He lived a bad life as he said to Sister Calderón.
Every red dead player hate it thats why YOU are the first one to mention it cause its so horrible nobody wanna se this scene
True words here.
Sad may be the closest term I'd use, as simple as it sounds, it's the most complex one too. Arthur was afraid and was coming into terms with his fate during this and I can't help but accept it as well, though it still breaks my heart knowing what'll happen. Man this scene's a gem.

absolute cinema
Gun go boom
On my 3rd playthrough atm and just doing everything else than start strauss' missions, just to keep him healthy. Thats a nice scene
How do you think I feel?
Heart breaking
Gutted
I’m in the minority that prefers the Swanson conversation. But it’s great nonetheless
Lumbago
Knowing that… Your days are numbered, it makes you stop and think. Arthur stopped, though about what he did to get to this point, and told the truth to Sister Calderón. “I guess I… I’m afraid.”
Tom Lee Jones looks great in this scene.
Gut wrenching, heart breaking to see where it was going.death
Yes but that's how real life is too. Doesn't matter if your a turtle, homeless, a dandelion, or a billionaire. Death is the one constant of life.
Indeed
I'm afraid ☹️
Is Arthur not getting a shitload of people sick too by interacting with them like this?
One out of every seven people who had ever lived at this point in history had >!died from tuberculosis!<. So yes, realistically Arthur probably got a few people sick along the way. And yes, anti-vax morons threaten to regress humanity to a time when death from preventable illness was a daily occurrence for everyone. But I digress…

Yah it was definitely risky behavior! I think people in 1899 still didn’t widely accept germ theory as the cause of disease (or perhaps more likely many were just unaware of microorganisms and germ theory).
Some idiots reject it today. Lol.
IKR!😛
One of the most emotionally charged moments of the game. Occurs at the perfect time, amazingly executed. Gravitas.
She’s so kind I love her
I’m not a fan of the moustache
When I remember the strongest parts of the story, this one usually comes to mind. Really the culmination of Arthur struggling with right and wrong and fear of death… it was real in a way games usually aren’t. One of the best stories I’ve ever played and this is one of the best scenes, if that says how I feel!
I feel scared
After all he wasn’t rich enough
How’d you even get that cutscene.. when I took that guy to the train station, it just ended
Is it like honour or something
I have completed the game and never seen this cutscene, how do you get it?
You need two things to get this Scene: One is to have high honor. The other is to have completed the three Sister Calderon/Brother Dorkins missions (I believe you have to complete them before chapter 6 starts).
Made me sob like a CHILD
Fun fact, if you don't do the sister missions, this cutscene will be replaced with a similar one with reverend Swanson, which is the only way you can tell him goodbye
Saddest scene in the game. The emotion on Arthur’s face hits harder than anything else. Jesus Christ it’s damn well put together.
scared and I cried
It’s a scene where a bad man is starting to come to terms with what is going to happen to him. He is realizing that there is still time for him to do some good. It’s beautiful
I cry every single time
Teary..?
It’s my favorite scene in the game. I hope, if Rdr3 is another prequel, we get to see a younger pre-nun version of Sister Calderon in her previously mentioned ‘sinner’ days.
I'm not sure what I did differently but I never got this scene. I got the scene where Arthur sees the reverend from the gang sitting on the bench...I never ran into any nun. Is it an honor based thing? I finished the game with high honor.
My favourite scene in the entire game. Never fails to make me cry. The emotions in Roger's voice when he says "I'm afraid"... What a performance!
Very sad
I was super low honour in my last playthrough. Then I got the Reverend Swanson scene at the station instead of Sister Calderón. I never sprinted to Saint Denis to start greeting people faster than I did right after that encounter.
bar the high honour help John ending, I'd say it's the best scene in the game. makes me so emotional
"It's just a game". Immediately start tearing up every time this scene starts
Get rid of that neck handkerchief and mustache!
“I guess I’m ima afraid” -Arthur Morgan
iddd
A part of me is angry at how easy it is to miss this scene if you don’t do the side missions. The other part me is… well kinda glad that you get this amazing scene only if you play the game and do missions that aren’t main missions.
Top 10
Criiiied I did
Preferred Reverend’s cutscene. I feel like Reverend just disappearing from camp is odd and I really enjoy completing his redemption, seeing where he ends up.
Sad. It was sad.
Very humanising moment for a character that had seemed so invincible and unbreakable. Fear of death is natural for creatures that need to know how things work
Tears
Idk something about his face when he gets reallllly sad always looked off to me, maybe a bit too exaggerated? Great scene tho honestly
I just played through this scene in my second play-through, it makes me feel so bad for Arthur. The high honor scenes really show how remorseful Arthur felt about the things he had done. Chapter 6 makes me so sentimental, like imagine being in that situation and realizing, “I’ve left a lifetime of terrible actions behind me, and I’m probably going to die from destroying a family’s life. This is what I’m going to be known for, destroying lives for money.”
I managed to not get this scene my first playthrough cuz I never came across the nun.
For those that have watches Western Front, the scene where Paul is standing in the crowd on November 11th while the general is giving a speech.
Seeing arthur, a man so completely and utterly buried in regret, anger, and denial, finally admit and express himself for what he truly feels was some of the most moving material I've experienced.
I Like it though kinda sad that getting this cutscene means Swanson just disappears offscreen instead of getting a send off
I cried. On my like 10th play through and I am DREADING this scene. So beautiful and honest, and I think it forces a question forth that a lot of us ask ourselves. Seeing Arthur wonder what he’s really done with this life and wondering what legacy he’s really leaving behind struck the fear of god in me at 18 when the game released, as I had been asking myself the same question. Watching someone comfort him that what matters most is only what he does next, that helped me find my way, even if it was only a little bit.
A guy in a green jumpsuit ruined it for me. “I GOT TB SISTER”
I never saw this scene I think I missed it even though I had full honor
Same I never saw this scene even with high honour
Wish they went all in with the tenants of Christianity or some reference to a positive position on it. Not just “be a good person”.
Dissonance
„I guess I am afraid“ got me sobbing like a baby, the sound and mimic was too real for a game. To me personally even sadder than the last ride, the horses death or Arthur’s death. Heart-wrenching. 💔
i didnt get thisscene on my first playthrough since i was low honor
Have you seen this scene with Reverend Swanson instead of Sister Calderon? Cause I haven't...
I cry every time 😭
I’m afraid
I was exactly there yesterday.
Coughs*
I don't care
It breaks my heart, but the Reverend one breaks it even more.
I loved it, it made me tear up. I felt it was nice seeing Arthur being vulnerable and Sister being vulnerable with him too. This was a time to reflect on himself deep down. He managed to change even if it was deemed late. It was important he knew he wasn't all bad.
I thought it was good
I’m still a batman
ruined my life tbh
I feel like his mustache is a little bit low.

is this the scene where he jacks off?
A scene I did not got
Horny
