The Red Dead Redemption Ending discussion-spoilerinside-

Hey guys ,i just beaten the game to 89.5% complete and i somehow feel deperessed about the ending:(,IMO it could have been alot better,

what do you guys think.i mean its like seeing nico bellic die in the last mission or like seeing tommy vercetti killed in the last mission by other gangstas.dont you think?yea so what if his son is alive,we dont care about his son,yea they made him exactly the same as his dad to tell us that his legacy still lives on,but it just doesnt work for me.John marstone is the same character we played in Red dead revolver,red harlow i think or what ever,

the fact of the matter is that they made the ending so wrong.i mean people should end up being happy they played as John Marstone,but its the exact opposite.

the thing that annoyed me alot was the chance that the creators give you to use the Dead Eye.on all those people for no reason!what is wrong with you Rstar.

lets see what you think people.

@DJ_Magneto oh yes i did,and yes i killed the dude that killed my father :D and got the credit.

but that jack kid is a loser,dont you think?and yes his voice if awful,hehe

if john was the character from red dead revolver,then i think rockstar messed it up to kill him.

I loved the ending it made sense he did wat he had to save his family he went out in cold blood but Jack does eventually get revenge

i understand what you are talking about and i get your point,maybe rockstar wanted all the attension on the ending,good or bad as you said.

yeah you are correct about the thing you said about jack.but it seems that we waisted a lot of time becoming john,and all of a sudden we are jack,and where does that gonna take Rstar's red dead series to,i dont know.

another point i wanted to say was that why did the PS3 version had 1 more outfit than the xbox version?and can you really get 100% on that game if you dont have internet access?it seems impossible

I'm kinda happy they killed John at the end. I mean I hate when I'm watching a movie or something and the hero always lives. It's so predictable. I think that's why I really like the ending of RDR. I really didn't see that coming.

I'd have preferred the game to end at the scene where you see Jack Marston standing in front of his parent's graves.

Playing as Jack Marston let the game down for me as he wasn't a likeable character. Far too annoying.

The more people talk about this game ending, the more I feel that R* got this completely right. What other game ending in recent memory has stirred up this much conversation and outcry of opinion: Good or Bad? It got people's emotions going. It got people talking. How many other games just go out on a wimper with the typical textbook ending that people expect? RDR's ending just came way out of left field, and if it wasn't spoiled for you, you had to have just sat there with your mouth open saying to yourself, "Did that just happen?" And the fact that they gave you an "opportunity" to Dead Eye as many people as you could to give you the ILLUSION that you could have actually stopped it made it that much more impactful on people's emotions. "Dang I could have stopped that from happening." How many people went back to play that final mission to see if they could have changed the outcome? DJ_Magneto

John Marston is one of the best video game characters I can ever remember, because he was a total Bad @ss and because of what he stood for and against. Him dying was a fitting end after spending so much time looking for his redemption, and I think the game would have been pretty corny if eeryone ended up living happily ever after (whats the chances that after everything Marston did during the game nobody would come looking for him?)

Why should EVERY game and movie have the same ending? Almost every one has a happy ending. RDR had one of the bettter endings i've seen in a video game.

I actually played thru RDR twice. The second time I completed all but the final Jack mission. I can't bring myself to walk over to that barn! Also, about the Jack hating: I think that Jack is seen negatively because there's no development time for his character. We spend the entire game building up & getting to know Marston & then suddenly he's gone & we have Jack just thrown at us like "ok, here u go". Had Marston been killed earlier in the game so more time could have been given to warm up to Jack's character, maybe he would be more popular.

I don't mean to resurrect this thread but that was one kick ass ending...the very definition of epic, a beautiful game.

Somebody mentioned that having so many topics on RDR's ending is exactly R* were wanting for this game. I have to agree that i really liked the ending which according to me was epic. Not many games out there can create this feeling of loss and care while engaging you more and more into the storyline and gameplay. The only other masterpieces that i have played and are similar are ME series, BioShock and Dead Space.

I also have this feeling that we should have more and more games that the do not finish on a good terms. Kind of like take out the gappy cheesy ending for once...This is why games like ME are appealing, because you can actually make the endinf the way you want it to be...
