The gang’s reaction to Lenny’s death also mirror their decision during the final showdown at Beaver Hollow. Charles, had he been present, would have sided with Arthur and John, while Micah and Bill immediately sided with Dutch. Javier is hesitant, but ultimately sides with Dutch as well.
@@ronanhavern1980 he also said that Rockstar was against the idea.

Additional facts: Before his passing, John O'Creagh had already completed some recording sessions for Uncle's dialogue, including some singing. Whilst his spoken dialogue was indeed replaced upon being recast, O'Creagh's singing was retained in the final version of RDR2. O'Creagh was also an accomplished actor of stage and screen, appearing in such shows as.. _The Late Show with David Letterman, John Adams, Law & Order, Life on Mars, Kidnapped, Orange is the New Black, Master of None, and The Knick._ All things considered, the way Rockstar immortalised him in game was a classy move, and for that they deserve their props.
The way Javier never really stops loving his family even after siding with dutch always gets me. At the final scene where they face off and everyone points their guns at Arthur and John, he points his gun in the air.
Susan is not only a former painted lady, but she's the madam of the other girls in camp. Arthur can catch her pressuring Abigail to return to work, and she complains at the campfire that the girls disrespect her as a madam, and she'd have been horse whipped for that, and was.
@@mcmax571 Yeah there were really limited options for women back then. Mary Beth talks a bit about after her mama died things got really bad for her...likely because she had no choice but to turn to prostitution and wasn't always treated very well by the men who bought her services.

@@TenereAMir the counterpoint being that she wasn't just a sex worker, but a career criminal after the fact. If you told me some pimp was beating on a bank robber, it hits a little different
Always found it strange people do that in videos, it's not like they'll ever get a reply, let alone see it so it serves as nothing as filler. Highlighted it as an intermission in sponsorblock as well due to that.
Another detail for you, Strange Man: Dutch carries a pair of silver and black plated Schofields engraved with gold and silver, both revolvers have pearl grips, they also seem to be slightly worn. A combination of fancy engravings and metallic finishes makes them the best looking guns in the game, half of the gun it's black (representing Dutch's dark side) and the other half is silver (Dutch's good side). The pearl grips represent his honor over the years.
Also, in movies, the evil outlaw is always wearing a black hat, while the good guy wears a white one. In rdr2, this is strange because our protagonist, Arthur, wears a black hat, and the antagonist, Micah, wears a white one. This is likely to remind us that now, we would call Micah the good guy as he was on the law's side, and Arthur the bad guy as he was the criminal
Why split a bounty when some chivalrous grizzly comes along to free up both halves of it? It's sad what she became in the end. In the beginning she shows distaste for the gang's criminality.
With the Aiden O'Malley fact, the GTA mission is called "tunnel of death" which reminds me of the mission in RDR1 where you chase Dutch through the cave or "tunnel" to his death
Me. Strange Man is the only silent youtuber I don't mind reading because his selection of music is always top notch and it also fits the topic. I'd love to make a ringtone of that epic song used in this video but having your favorite music as a ringtone or alarm is the fastest way to start hating it. Especially in case of alarms. It took me almost a year to get rid of the twitch I had every time I entered a saveroom in RE3.
Dutch actually does stop to look back at Lenny very briefly before climbing down the ladder. I think it shows just how conflicted he was at that point.
@@TheDanteEX Fittingly, it's the setting of the final mission where a massive shootout occurs between John and Micah's gang where you go full gunslinger on their asses.
Yeah uh bud rockstar are infamous for how badly they treat their voice talent. Maybe that changed over the years with how some seem willing to go back nowadays but in the past voice actors have had some major grievances over pay and work conditions
That you are still able to make content for us with this game is amazing. Like, it’s 2021 and you’re still able to make such great content for us. If you ever run out, please cover RDR1 stuff in more detail like, side missions etc. Keep up the work man!
The thing is, some of the things in the last few video's, I already knew because of reading it somewhere (because as you mentioned, the game has been out for a while already and I've looked up a lot about the game in that time) and still, when strange man mentions the things I know, I still love how he presents it. Sometimes I'm like: I knew that or say the thing that's going to be said in the text of strange man (like with o'creachs run as I've already read that somewhere) but for some unexplicable reason I still kind of feel like as if I hear it for the first time. Hard to explain, it's just... strange, man.
@@leonbladder5569 thing for me is; I already know all bout it. Most things that he mentioned. But for example with his previous video about the Saint Denis vampire, he found out what his real name was. Smth I hadn’t even come across. It are little details like that, that keep me returning to his content.
I'd imagine so, because Rockstar took from a lot of real life things and some pop culture things (Clint Eastwood as the inspiration for Arthur) to make a game. Nothing here came out of thin air.
My favorite detail is at the final mission (with Arthur). When they’re at the camp Micah tries to pull his gun first, and Arthur draws his gun quicker than Micah.
SERIoUSLY. Now that i look at it, there's something distinctly masculine about the way the character is dabbing her eyes. I'm a theater actor and one of the things you do is try to imitate the opposite sex and learn those little things they do so that you can more authentically emulate them. This looks every bit like a man trying to appear feminine. I'd love to see a side by side of the original and one done with a female actor to see the very slight differences in movement.
@@skullygem3057 In fairness, at least he just had to stand there. It reminds me of Kasumi’s loyalty mission in Mass Effect 2, where the limitations of Shepard’s body model (as confirmed by the devs) really came to light when playing a female Shepard in that party dress. Suffice to say, her gait was not the most...feminine. Worked okay for space armor, though.
Did you actually know that when you look at johns dead horse in chapter 1 in the second mission in the game that it has a unique saddle where the letters J M are engraved on
2:54 "So for the end credits, come up with a cool or interesting description for each character." "What about Kieran?" "Who?" "The guy they kidnap." "Oh. Call him just that."
I like how the culture in red dead is spread across the map. And you can see where it has moved and from where, not just in the gameplay and the things you find, but in the structures.
I realized there are also realistic tides in this game. I was fishing at Clemens point when in the afternoon when Arthur just randomly reeled the line in and refused to cast. It was because the water that was at my ankles when I started fishing had gone up to my waist, so I was too deep cast because the tide came in.
Heres one I bet you didn't know: The winter outfit John wears in chapter 1 is identical to the winter outfit worn by Silencer in "The Great Silencer" and it's been patched up by the time of the epilogue
@@burningsexuality1540 They added the jacket to the wardrobe with the hole patched up but everything else they left out including the hat. It would have been nice if Rockstar added all of Johns NPC outfits.
After the Lenny’s death part of the video and seeing how Javier is the only one out of Dutch, Bill, and Micah (who become one part of the gang in the final chapter when the gang splits up in two) to look back at Lenny for a sec, i now feel even more bad for Javier. He really cared about the gang. In the last chapter, he tries to encourage everyone in the camp to believe in Dutch and how they all have to stay together. And he struggles to point his gun at Arthur and John in the final standoff. The gang meant everything to Javier but his blind loyalty and Dutch’s madness (fueled by Micah) destroyed the gang. I bet Javier become so depressed for a while before going back to Mexico
Javier did not struggle to aim his gun at Arthur. Whoever says this is quite blind. Throughout the game, you can see that Javier always holds his revolver in the air, so it's just comfortable for him. Plus, just before Agent Ross shouts "Put your guns down!" you can see that Javier is pointing his gun at Arthur's head. Also, may I remind you that Javier still left John for dead, he was just as guilty as Dutch, Micah and Joe. The voice actor of Javier may have said that he persisted for Javier not to aim his gun at Arthur, but also states that Rockstar didn't really like that idea. This makes me think they lied to the voice actor to satisfy him, but they pulled a sneaky and still did it, but only for a split second so he couldn't see it
I just love how RDR 2 is not only one of the most detailed games I’ve ever played, it’s also littered with secrets and easter eggs like these from start to finish that only the diehard Rockstar fans will catch on their first playthroughs. This is the kind of absurdly high quality that results from 10 years of hard work… and a budget of $90 million.
That budget returned 8 times in the first day after release, companies should do more of high quality games, it really pays and is also awesome for the players
It's possible. GTA5 was released in 2013 and RDR2 was in pre-production by that point. Maybe Dan Houser really liked the name Arthur and stuck with it as the new protagonist for RDR2.
I'm again and again impressed how much details and historical accuracy they put into this game. And every time you think you've seen all, theree comes another video with details around the corner.
Bill and Micah never really gave a damn about Lenny because he's a colored individual and Bill doesn't like Lenny too much especially Micah who pokes fun of him too constantly. Charles on the other hand does care for his comrades even when they die. he even went as far as to bury all of them while Javier, despite being loyal to Dutch does care. you can hear him say it during when they find John Marston and fishing at chapter 3. and this proves that Javier didn't even point his gun at Arthur during the final chapter.
One of the things I really like about your videos is the music, the music is always on point and fits what the video is about. Be it spooky, uplifting or serious like, it always suits what I am watching, great attention to detail there.
For the Susan Grimshaw being a "painted lady" after you get Jack back and after some time Susan and the other ladies of the camp sings about her time as "painted lady"
Considering Susan and Karen sing songs about drinking and whoring together it makes more sense, but only if you spend enough time around camp to hear their conversions and camp interactions.
When I played the mission with Brumas in Rdr2, I was horrified. When it gave me the chance to shoot I only had my sawed off shotgun, so I shot twice and then there was a horrifying 2 seconds from the time I shot to the time the cutscene played.
8 years of development, definitely paid off! Every once in while, am like yeah I think I know all the details of this game, Strange Man comes to us with a new video.
I always liked Javier he was really down to earth especially when he told Arthur that people should stop focusing on Dutch so much when they really should be looking at themselves
Not sure if you've mentioned this before, but some might notice that Dutch sounds younger in RDR2, despite the game being made eight years later. This is because his actor, Benjamin Byron Davis, was a heavy smoker back in 2010, but quit between games. This gave him a higher voice, making his job of voicing Dutch in his prime much easier. In-game, the bell at Shady Belle rings differently depending on how you hit it: gun, throwing knife, tomahawk... even the lasso give a small ding.
can you do a video explaining the map in some way ? like showing how can rockstar expand or were ? or even just saying what part of the map is based on what state and that sort of thing?
I like to think the reason O'Creagh's Run always looks so beautiful and peaceful is because it was made specifically in honor of Uncle's deceased voice actor.

I never click this fast.... unless Strange Man uploads.
05:02 this will never stop making me sad how Javier was quite a good guy but at the end he choosed the wrong side
2:12
I love this song, I wish it was on youtube or spotify...
Oh well, at least I have another reason to come back to Strange Man's videos!
Same dude. In my case, its the song at 8:30
@@ranieracosta8404 What's the song name tho
@@DonVito18 its been a month and I still can't find it. If you ever do PLEASE tell me
Strange Man also does some music over on their Patreon that’s included in their videos, so it might be one of the songs they had made.
I realized there are also realistic tides in this game. I was fishing at Clemens point when in the afternoon when Arthur just randomly reeled the line in and refused to cast. It was because the water that was at my ankles when I started fishing had gone up to my waist, so I was too deep cast because the tide came in.
Aiden's death really similar to Dutch's death scene
Heres one I bet you didn't know: The winter outfit John wears in chapter 1 is identical to the winter outfit worn by Silencer in "The Great Silencer" and it's been patched up by the time of the epilogue
I heard that from somewhere but i forgot lol

Holy crap that's exact. I want that jacket.
@@burningsexuality1540 They added the jacket to the wardrobe with the hole patched up but everything else they left out including the hat. It would have been nice if Rockstar added all of Johns NPC outfits.
@@burningsexuality1540 It’s a really nice jacket I must admit.
After the Lenny’s death part of the video and seeing how Javier is the only one out of Dutch, Bill, and Micah (who become one part of the gang in the final chapter when the gang splits up in two) to look back at Lenny for a sec, i now feel even more bad for Javier. He really cared about the gang. In the last chapter, he tries to encourage everyone in the camp to believe in Dutch and how they all have to stay together. And he struggles to point his gun at Arthur and John in the final standoff. The gang meant everything to Javier but his blind loyalty and Dutch’s madness (fueled by Micah) destroyed the gang. I bet Javier become so depressed for a while before going back to Mexico
Kind of explains how crazy he is in RD1
Javier did not struggle to aim his gun at Arthur. Whoever says this is quite blind. Throughout the game, you can see that Javier always holds his revolver in the air, so it's just comfortable for him. Plus, just before Agent Ross shouts "Put your guns down!" you can see that Javier is pointing his gun at Arthur's head.
Also, may I remind you that Javier still left John for dead, he was just as guilty as Dutch, Micah and Joe.
The voice actor of Javier may have said that he persisted for Javier not to aim his gun at Arthur, but also states that Rockstar didn't really like that idea. This makes me think they lied to the voice actor to satisfy him, but they pulled a sneaky and still did it, but only for a split second so he couldn't see it
@@fgwrts
Of course Javier is loyal to Dutch, especially after the events in Guarma. Javier feels he owes Dutch his life so sides with him in the end.
I just love how RDR 2 is not only one of the most detailed games I’ve ever played, it’s also littered with secrets and easter eggs like these from start to finish that only the diehard Rockstar fans will catch on their first playthroughs. This is the kind of absurdly high quality that results from 10 years of hard work… and a budget of $90 million.
That budget returned 8 times in the first day after release, companies should do more of high quality games, it really pays and is also awesome for the players
At 4:41, I noticed that detail, and I remember that scene and that really made me realize who dutch, Micah and bill were.
But Dutch looked back briefly, didn’t he?
Bill had a love/hate relationship with Lenny
@@StuartLugsden And bill was probably worried about his own skin. The only one I could see not caring about lenny’s death is Micah.
@@DannyLrides Of course Micha didn't care. Lenny's death meant less competition to him.
@@StuartLugsden yup, agreed.
2 years later and hidden details in this game are still being found, looking forward to see the future of rockstar games
I had heard about O'Creagh's Run some time ago.
And now, every time I pass by there, I greet the lake as if it were a person.
It’s crazy that miss Grimshaw was a retired painted lady - that would low key describe how she got the scar on her face .
The tribute to Mr. O' Creagh was an interesting fact to know. And the historical facts Rockstar put into this game is just amazing!
I like how Aiden falls of a cliff, just as Dutch did. Its a nice reference, that Dutch called himself Aiden
0:42 - 2:10 AMAZING piece of music! Wish I could find a link to it but I think it was created by Strange Man himself. Very well done
In GTA V there is a sign that says "Arthur's Pass Trails" behind the observatory with a high road and a low road...
But red dead 2 came out after GTA V
@@elijahximenez3168 Foresight
It's possible. GTA5 was released in 2013 and RDR2 was in pre-production by that point. Maybe Dan Houser really liked the name Arthur and stuck with it as the new protagonist for RDR2.
I'm again and again impressed how much details and historical accuracy they put into this game. And every time you think you've seen all, theree comes another video with details around the corner.
Bill and Micah never really gave a damn about Lenny because he's a colored individual and Bill doesn't like Lenny too much especially Micah who pokes fun of him too constantly.
Charles on the other hand does care for his comrades even when they die. he even went as far as to bury all of them while Javier, despite being loyal to Dutch does care. you can hear him say it during when they find John Marston and fishing at chapter 3. and this proves that Javier didn't even point his gun at Arthur during the final chapter.
This man knows the game inside and out, he really is the Strange Man
This channel is so underrated
Though I think that strange man's fanbase has become quite big, I also still feel like this channel is incredibly underrated lol
Yeah but it has grown quite a bit in the last months
but Dutch looked back ... and even screamed when Arthur said the kid is dead
"Dutch doesn't look back"
5:01 Dutch: *literally looks back*
I'm pretty sure he was yelling at arthur to come on.
One of the things I really like about your videos is the music, the music is always on point and fits what the video is about.
Be it spooky, uplifting or serious like, it always suits what I am watching, great attention to detail there.
For the Susan Grimshaw being a "painted lady" after you get Jack back and after some time Susan and the other ladies of the camp sings about her time as "painted lady"
Considering Susan and Karen sing songs about drinking and whoring together it makes more sense, but only if you spend enough time around camp to hear their conversions and camp interactions.

These weekly video drops are just as good as a Netflix series new season
When I played the mission with Brumas in Rdr2, I was horrified. When it gave me the chance to shoot I only had my sawed off shotgun, so I shot twice and then there was a horrifying 2 seconds from the time I shot to the time the cutscene played.
8 years of development, definitely paid off! Every once in while, am like yeah I think I know all the details of this game, Strange Man comes to us with a new video.
That's a amazing intro Strange!
I always liked Javier he was really down to earth especially when he told Arthur that people should stop focusing on Dutch so much when they really should be looking at themselves
Who else is moving fast when Strange man posts?
That flag one is like so interesting man, and the new intro🔥
4:52 fun fact: Marston would stop briefly, IF he'd stop at all
This channel is baffling. Every single thumbnail looks like trivial clickbait but every single one actually has good content
The strange man never disappoints.
It's amazing how John didn't get any more scars from that attack. It reminds me of The Revenant
bruh i don't watch youtube much but when strange man uploads rd2 yk i'm clicking fast asf
Dude I have no words for how much I appreciate you for these videos
javier and bill need a dlc for them, to show their story after the gang
Play rdr1
it would be nice to see how they ended up the way they were in rdr1
Not sure if you've mentioned this before, but some might notice that Dutch sounds younger in RDR2, despite the game being made eight years later. This is because his actor, Benjamin Byron Davis, was a heavy smoker back in 2010, but quit between games. This gave him a higher voice, making his job of voicing Dutch in his prime much easier.
In-game, the bell at Shady Belle rings differently depending on how you hit it: gun, throwing knife, tomahawk... even the lasso give a small ding.
After seeing Strange Man vids, i feel like blind man Cassidy.
Red Dead 2 truly is the game that keeps on giving. We need more games like this with cool new stuff always being discovered!
right yesterday i was thinking about Dutch using Aiden o'Malley as an alias in Guarma and today u upload a video about that. Love ur work bro
Me too dude XD

I have never ever heard of longer rolling credits than at the end of this game. That shit went on and on and fucking on for a half hour at least.
can you do a video next on the ghost train 🚂
YES
Whats interesting is that aiden and dutchs death is kind of the same aiden dies by being shot off a cliff and dutch jumped off a cliff
can you do a video explaining the map in some way ? like showing how can rockstar expand or were ? or even just saying what part of the map is based on what state and that sort of thing?
The ammount of effort put into these videos is insane!
How is there still more?? It is absolutely insane the amount of detail put into the game
Exactly. Its alright boah
5:11 dutch actualy stops and lookes back for a sec
No, if you know the scene he was only turning around to yell at Arthur to get moving, he didn't care about Lenny
I mean it makes sense that Susan was a painted lady, even if she old she still look good😂😏
Damn, the music in his videos is brilliant!
How was Dutch not looking back at Lenny? 😃🤔
Brother u deserve way more subscribers, i have been binge watching ur videos for nearly 2 weeks and i love them❤
Notice how aiden o'malley kinda died like dutch did
I like the new Music. Im not scared of a jumpscare half the time. And i dont feel like i walked in on a Cult haha
Another reason roger Clark is legendary.
Interesting the flags details, and I didn't knew about the blizzard, good video
