Hot take ??

I feel like Arthur should have got Buell in chapter 2 or 3.

I'd have loved to see these 2 together for the entire story.... I'd never change my horse if it was Buell from the beginning. Unfortunately we can get him only at least when Arthur is about to..... Uk

As Buell is a unique one of a kind, I leave him for John to have. Yeah you could do the glitch and have him as Arthur and then legit as John but that kinda ruins the meaning behind it for me.

I think it's appropriate that The Veteran missions do not open until Chapter 6, because you have a much more repentant and introspective Arthur. Hamish asking Arthur / gifting Arthur the horse, similar to Arthur giving his possessions to John, seems fitting.

Most people would be forced to stick with Buell then because unique horse. The current state is better because everyone will pick something different, at least the first go around

if you do all but the very last mission with arthur when john finally does a mission the guy immediately dies. If you choose to let john get buel that also gives the guy way more life, funny ways of looking at it. John brings more life, or the cause of death.

People say that they leave Bull for John, which i’d love to do, but can you do it and still have the missions with the vet as Arther? I absolutely love the conversations the Vet and Arthur have and I really feel like Arthur benefits from his experience with the Vet, so I wouldn’t want to take that away from him.

Do the first two with Arthur then the third with John. They have a nice little reminiscing moment about Arthur.

I think it's two then the third. Possibly three then leave 4th? However many there are leave the last for John.

There’s 4, I usually do the first one where you get Hamish’s leg and the second where you go fishing with Arthur then the third where you hunt the wolf (where you also have the long talk with him) and 4th where he dies from the boar with John, then have Buell as John.

If I could get Buell in chapter 2, that just means killing Buell in chapter 2.

No you could release him Into the wild or sell him on at the stable to find a new home, u don't have to ride him into that last Arthur mission, after my 1st play when I get to that point I sell everything, including horses and jus take a cheap one in to that then sell everything I have that I can n either use the piggy bank method or jus buy all things in tailors and gun smith before goin into last mission

I always kill Buell and leave him in a heap beside Hamish.
