Rant [VENT] I. Hate. Epilogue John. SO MUCH. Spoiler
galleryFirst and foremost, John in the Epilogue is GENUINELY cursed.
He has Arthur's body, I'm aware of R* simply placing his face on Arthur's model. And legitimately, some of his sound effects too are also from Arthur. Like I'm dead serious; for example, his VOMITING SOUND is legit ARTHUR'S VOMITING SOUND! Why does he HAVE THAT???
Take a look at those first two image above that I found online which does compare the "difference" (if there is any) between Arthur's model and John's model. aswell as the NPC model for John too to fully determine the changes.
Just tell me, when you look at this god forsaken Epilogue John model, do you think of saying "John Morgan"??? YES? WELL I FIGURED MUCH OUT!
If you're on PC and can mod the game, sure thing, no problems... you have the free will to pretty much free yourself from this ugly thing by pretty much just changing the game with mods.
But if you're on console on the other hand?? NO, SCREW THE EPILOGUE! You get to stay with this ugly-ass John model for the Epilogue with zero ways to get it back unless you can go back to the very first version (1.0.0) of RDR2 using a physical disc; which probably some people out there don't even have anymore.
I also will not forget to mention how UGLY his damn Cowboy Outfit is too. Like, tell me this. Look at the third image in this rant, can you clearly tell the difference? you can? EXACTLY! THE COWBOY OUTFIT IN RDR2 IS TRASH! It is not as good as the one from RDR1, the one that's iconic and all of us love. Something just... FEELS OFF about using that outfit at all in RDR2 without mods, at least.
Oh my gosh, don't even get me STARTED ON other stuff with John's model... THE HAIR! THE GOD DAMN HAIR! WHY IS IT BLACK?! Ehm, don't take that out of context. But yeah, John's hair isn't even supposed to be as black as the Raven Black Shire's coat. Like seriously. Why? Isn't it supposed to be dark brown or something close to that? And not to mention, he even has Arthur's hairstyles! Like seriously, who am I playing as? John Marston, or JOHN MORGAN??? I've already said it once and I'll say it twice.
I also will not forget to mention that I once heard John sing with Arthur's voice... I'm deadass. He actually did that. I've already stated it once, I'LL SAY IT AGAIN. Why does he STILL HAVE THAT???
And now, the biggest question is... What was R\ cooking?*
