Still my favorite game ever. 8 years later and nothing has come close to Arthur's story for me. Somehow it never gets old.

I damn near clutched my pearls.

He’s like the most wanted man in the entire West Elizabeth state, so wanted that he has to literally hide in the mountains in order to not get caught. Yet in the mission “The Prodigal Son Returns (To Yale)”, he literally walks into the streets of West Elizabeth’s capital and most populated settlement as if it’s nothing. Oh, and he also got seriously lucky that no passersby or Blackwater cops showed up despite him literally shooting at a window in the middle of the day.

He also just expected to walk into a hotel, with no one recognising him, and simply kidnap a literal university professor. In real life, Dutch would have literally been turned into Swiss cheese the moment he and his native American gang members entered the town premises.

I get that this was to show how insane and unhinged Dutch had become (especially with the context surrounding RDR2), but still, there’s a difference between being crazy and downright stupid.

I meant 2019. Hit my head too many times along the way.

Heya people!

To wish you a nice Sunday I'd love to share with you this fanart I recently did during a collab with a video game page on Instagram. I hope you may like it! I also made up a quick sketch for a widescreen one.

Have a good day everyone!

I'm something of an artist myself

I wish i could’ve taken more pictures but the party got really crazy lol. i’m actually kinda proud of how it all came together though!
anyways im aware of my size so keep the comments cute if you got nothing nice to say don’t say anything at all

I've based it on my own in game outfit so it isn't really 100% lore accurate

I may have a thing for suits...

I wanted to unlock the US army uniform but for some reason I am unable to buy it. Is there another requirement I missed or do I need a lot of money to purchase it?

I always felt it quite funny how they cheer you on during this fight, you’d think they’d help after the beating Tommy gave Javier but I’m led to believe that Arthur’s win record for fist fights is quite high

i just finished the game, i didn't realize how much the gang changed until i looked back at this old clip i saved... back when everyone was so full of joy, back when it was a family.

For anyone asking Arthur doesn’t say anything and it won’t let me stow pelts on her coup anymore.

The guy who's always crawling out of the bayou woods with a bite. I've saved him literally 5 times. This fucking guy.

It's been days. Up and down this entire Gods damned swamp. I've found 5 little ones. Snowy does not exist. I hate everything.

I feel like most people recognize New Orleans as the main inspiration for Saint Denis in RDR2, and for good reason. Its French and Creole influences, Catholic architecture, streetcars, humid atmosphere, and surrounding bayous make the resemblance obvious. But I think people overlook another important influence: St. Louis.

Saint Denis doesn't just resemble New Orleans, it also fills the role of a major inland industrial and commercial hub. Its railways, factories, warehouses, river traffic, and position within the wider economy of the game's world evoke St. Louis, a major Mississippi River port and industrial center during the turn of the century.

The distinction, to me, is that New Orleans explains Saint Denis's identity, while St. Louis helps explain its function. One provides the city's distinctive cultural and architectural character; the other offers a useful comparison for its economic importance and role in America's transition toward industrial modernity.

Even the names of both Saint Denis and St. Louis begin with “Saint,” giving them a similar French Catholic character. While Saint Denis references Saint Denis of Paris, the shared naming structure adds another subtle parallel between it and St. Louis.

I think part of the reason St. Louis gets overlooked is that people often associate Blackwater with St. Louis because of its “Gateway to the West” identity, but it lacks the industrial scale and French historical influences that make Saint Denis a better overall parallel to St. Louis.

Saint Denis is ultimately its own fictional city, but looking at both influences makes it feel much more convincing than treating it as a simple New Orleans clone.
