I actually prefer finishing the fourth mission as John, when hamish let’s you in he shows you what you caught as Arthur and seems upset to hear about his passing. It’s a nice spot to remember an old friend
I started alot of quests as Arthur and left them unfinished so I could back as John and watch the dialogue of memories between Arthur and whoever the quest giver was..
Tin Of Beans damnit, I was wondering what the hell happened to Buell, I had gotten him right before I finished the game and put him in the stables then he was gone.
Not-So Fun Fact: O'Creagh's run is named after the original Voice Actor for Uncle in RDR2, John O'Creagh, who died during the development of the game in 2016.
Epicviolence 123 It’s more sad if you listen to his dialogue, right before he dies he says something along the lines of “Wait tell I tell Baldassario about this”, which is his brother’s name.
Hamish was one of the best friends Arthur could have. Someone he could really connect with. AND YOU SHOT BUELL?! You’re a monster. A goddamn monster. That’s not okay in ANY playthrough goddammit.
11:57 "the game spares us a long conversation" I think you mean the game cheated us from a amazing conversations. I mean I get it, it would be boring to just watch two people talk but I would've love to hear the stories those two share with each other
Right!? Why couldn't it have been a solid 30-45 min convo, both of them getting personal and deep, Arthur truly getting to connect with someone, and all skippable if we felt like it
Spoilers: I lowkey cried when Buell died at the horse death scene in the final mission. And Arthur dying after that is what spilled the glass for me and made me cry man tears... like a bitch..
I did the same thing, I didn’t think about what’d happen at the end, I know it’s silly but buell to me was the old veterans memory and I legit felt really bad that he got shot. I think the entire ending of the game is just one big ball of sad.
All you people that cried need to play more story-rich games. It really wasn't that damn sad. Emotional, yes but the dude was an outlaw and clearly not in the next game and had TB. Try playing one of the Final Fantasy games when one of your main characters sacrifices himself for the party to have a chance at escaping some evil villains trap or something and it happens totally unexpectedly to a completely innocent individual - sometimes a kid.
I payed respect by lassoing him, took him to the marina on O’Creigh’s and rowed him out to the island as his final resting spot. I rode Buell out to the last mission of Ch. 6 so they’re finally reunited. Pretty poetic I’d say.
@@josephstalin2606 there’s two animals associated with honour levels in rdr2, for low honour a coyote and a wolf, for high a deer (I think) and an eagle
I always feel like that clip of arthur being like "hamish, you said uh.. maybe we could go fishing" gets overlooked alot. To me it ties into what arthur has said about his dad being a bad dude and that he never had much a childhood and that Dutch kind of was that father figure. In a way i think arthur unknowingly is trying to replace the father like figure in his life as he realizes dutch never cared/is coming undone. (Whichever you believe). Seems like he always had someone to look up too and aspire to. Arthur is one of my all time favourites but i think he's emotionally stunted and kind of stuck in a teenagers emotional state. Doesnt mean hes a naive idiot but i think its what stopped him from ever really standing up to Dutch or leaving the gang like john did. John had the experience of having his own kid and i think that snapped him out of the same thing. For Arthur it was getting tb but it was just too late
Where this all falls apart is that Arthur did have a kid, long before the events of RDR2. He mentions this a few times throughout the story, but by name while riding up the mountain on horseback with Rains Fall. Isaac, Arthur's son, and Isaac's mother, were both killed in a robbery, over ten dollars. Arthur only discovered this during one of his visits, they were not home and there were two crosses in the yard. He also potentially mentions this very vaguely during "A Fisher of Men," when he tells Jack about how he'd taught another young boy to fish, many years before Jack was born and many years before he met Lenny, who he also seems to have had an almost father-son relationship with.
@@doughboywhine All things considered though, Arthur did do right by them. He participated in their lives and acted like as much of a father figure as a wanted outlaw could. Better than his own father, that's for damn sure.
If I'm right it's because the mission needs to happen later and he arrived earlier. So it's a way for subtly doing what GTA V did and advancing time. If you go later like I did no conversation happens and he just offers coffee
I finished the last mission as John so I would actually have somewhere to take Buell afterwards. That way he wouldn't get lost in all the commotion right before Arthur's death.

Tht and I cant fuckn do it as arthur dude is already going thru so much ik I'm on the last one but I cant do it man🤦♂️
I don't understand why this mission is only available during chapter 6. It would have been so awesome if you could do these missions and get Buell in chapter 2 and use him for the rest of the game. That would have made this side story so much more powerful. Also, isn't kinda strange that Arthur doesn't cough even once during all the missions even though it's chapter 6? I think they wanted you to complete these missions earlier but something went wrong....I don't know.
Missions like these are key parts of Arthur developing an identity separate from Dutch. This missions with Hamish and with Charlotte Balfour represent the completion of Arthur’s slow burn arc and they’re not very appropriate before Chapter 6 for this reason. Arthur’s wandering that leads him to these characters was not warranted until now, as before, he left camp to provide for them and often returned to the company of his family. This is also why his interactions are a bit different here, with him seemingly having a genuine interest in helping and getting to know these people, while as before he completed these missions for money. I also think that these missions don’t work thematically until chapter 6. He’s embracing normalcy and is genuinely appreciating his numbered days, even learning things about himself and forming his own morals and priorities
It fits better with Arthur's character arch. Early in the game he wouldn't have the patience or inclination to do anything not directly related to enriching or taking care of the game. All the stranger missions either involve money or are just people Arthur stumbles across and can be done with in a few minutes.
I love Hamish. It kills me that their relationship was so strong yet so brief. I could imagine the two of them chilling on a boat in the lake fishing all day and exchanging stories and life advice. Fun fact: Hamish's horse Buell is named after a real Civil War general Don Carlos Buell. He also fought in the Mexican-American War as well as the Seminole War.
If I remember correctly I am related to him, as well as a Southern Colonel. Where he is from I have a lot of Family on my Mother's side all around there.
and Hosea. Although he was more of a father. But then again he knew people like Sean for years. but at that point in the story he defenitley was Edit: it is 11:41 PM, Tuesday December 3rd as of writing this and I'm trying to figure out what I meant when I wrote this
I've noticed that the entirety of Hamish's missions involve getting big things. Catch the big horse that threw him, catch the big fish, hunt the big wolf, hunt the big boar, have a BIG CRY when Hamish dies, and again at the end of the game when Buell gets killed... His entire story is a Big Mood.
I remremember doing this mission during my first play through. Buele was my Horse when Arthur died which made it all even sader when he was killed. For that reason I made sure I finished it as John in my second play through
Damn, what a underused character. It feels like they were going for some kind of father figure for Arthur there, but there was not much going on for his storyline.
The fear in Arthur’s voice when he sees Hamish after the boar attack gets me every time. Hamish was one of the only people who Arthur could call a true friend and didn’t want to lose him.
Did you insult Arthur for talking to a horse? I always talk to my horses, although maybe I'm just crazy. Honestly, it's something I really like about him.
Actually, during the wolf mission, i had a glitch where the pelt stayed on my horse and wouldn’t let arthur take it off and it wouldn’t come off unless i manually sold it, I kept it on until my horse died in the final mission to remember hamish.
Arthur’s friendship with Haemish and the Friendship which was slowly growing into a potential relationship with Charlotte the Widow really started to redeem Arthur
Bro the story has so much heart and made me care for everyone but in online I don’t even care and would be willing to kill my best friend in the online story mode for 5 dollars. Edit: nvm I would kill my best friend in the online story mode for free
Tyler Matchett Dude trust me replay it. They added a whole bunch of new wild horses (Arabian, Andalusian, Appaloosa), new guns etc to the story mode. Makes the game a lot less boring. And I’ve played story mode 6 times already 😂
Honestly Hamish is one of my favorite characters in the entire game. Something about him rubbed me all of the right ways and his unfortunate demise is one of the most somber moments in the entire game. I took his hat as a sort of memento (mori) but lost it at some point because Rockstar decided his hat shouldn't be savable.
Hamish was one of my favorite characters Arthur meets. I wish we could have done more with him, like just visit his cabin and talk, instead of it always being a mission. I finished his missions in like 2 hours, and it was odd how they were talking in the last mission like they'd been friends for years but in game I'd known the guy for just a few days and spent only a few hours with him. I think it would of been a more emotional mission series if they put more time that needed to pass between his missions and if in the mean time we could go to his cabin and sit and drink with him, take him fishing on the lake, or take him hunting. SIDENOTE: after getting his special lure, fishing became so much more fun, and ive spent so many hours fishing large pike. the fight is so fun. more enjoyable then most games about just fishing.
Hamish and Rains Falls were both comforting Characters after losing Hosea, the hunting trips and the wisdom, as well as the friendliness from both reminded me of him :')
I love hamish he was my best friend hunting and talking hanging out....and then the boar accident...ive been taking care of his horse ever since taking it for rides across the country and put im away in the stables for a bit and do it again later
Interesting fact not sure if it’s significant but O’Creagh’s Run is named after the original voice actor for Uncle John O’Creagh who played him in RDR 1 who signed on to voice him in RDR 2 but passed away in 2016 during the development of the game
Even if you have low bonding with Buell. Arthur will still say thank you to the Buell, unlike other horses you have to have high bonding for Arthur to say thank you.
These were by far my favorite encounters and Hamish my favorite person in the game. I was sad how they ended, made it worse is that Buel was my main until the last mission.
I loved these missions. Arthur really needed a friend in his final days. Someone decent and normal too. I like to think that this is proof Arthur was capable of living a calm and peaceful life, unlike the rest of the gang.
This is the last side mission I did before I went to Dutch for the final mission. So I had Buell during the last fight in that mountain. *That scene* pretty much broke me.
Great Video! I actually did catch the Tyrant on my first cast, after Hamish fell in. It took about 25 minutes, but I was able to reel him in without the extra cutscene.
I didn't do the last mission of this until the post game, and Hamish reminisced with John about his friendship with Arthur. It was really sweet, seeing him be all "See that big fish?? Arthur caught that!!"
A cool detail I discovered after Hamish died is when I returned to his house by the lake a quiet moonlit night, a massive owl landed on top of roof. It didn’t come off as something random at all. I believe it’s supposed to be Hamish in some form.
On my first playthrough I roamed around lake & cabin in chapter two while doing some hunting. I noticed the owl landing on the cabin, then I studied the owl, shot the owl, plucked the owl and then proceeded to loot the cabin. I did all of that, blissfully ignorant of Hamish.
I think Arthur found in Hamish what he didn’t have in Dutch. He had a fatherly figure who wanted nothing more than to be Arthur’s friend. 19:42 bro you could’ve taken him to a stable at least, what’s wrong with you?? 😂
I kinda figured Hamish was gonna die while doing the missions. The missions were just so wholesome. There was no way it was gonna stay wholesome forever.
if I remember right my first play through I finished the Hamish chapter as John in 07…did everything but the final one as Arthur, ads some Depth to the story doing it that way
I went fishing as arthur but after only came back as john and even he was talking about how arthur was a good man polite and it made me feel warm this game can have its wholesome times
Yo Fizhy, If one is want to do a twenty minute video on a specific mission in RDR2, it should be done with this level of care taken. Well done ol bean, thanks for the post, ~Mark~
"Not everything you find in the wild of the West is hostile" - might be the case. Still pulling out my good old repeating shotgun faster than my shadow everytime i have a random encounter :D
I actually prefer finishing the fourth mission as John, when hamish let’s you in he shows you what you caught as Arthur and seems upset to hear about his passing. It’s a nice spot to remember an old friend
Hamish also lives 8 years longer with John
Thanks for the info! I like that as well
Finish the last mission as John. Banish lives until 1907 AND Buell doesn’t die.
Erik Allen i probably should’ve done that 💀
I started alot of quests as Arthur and left them unfinished so I could back as John and watch the dialogue of memories between Arthur and whoever the quest giver was..
A moment of silence for those who used Buell in the last mission of chapter six
It's worse if Buell is in the stables because then he just gets sold off or dies waiting for Arthur to come back
Just ignore the mission untill you reach the Epilogue and you can use buell forever
@@stc3145 Yeah but then you complete it with Marston and it just seems, well...wrong.

Tony Stark died???
Ummm..spoilers????
I Managed To Find A Glitch Out of Bounds on red dead redemption 2 Online and it would mean alot if you checked it out
I wish Hamish lived and whenever you go to his cabin you can take him out hunting, fishing etc. like a sort of companion.
I thouggt the same thing
Yeah, like when you get bored. But no, rockstar knows how to play with our feelings 😢
Could've been fun if you had him as a companion option for the legendary hunts, complete with commentary
Maybe in Red Dead 3?
JOHN! My cousin! Do you want to go hunting?!
It’s a bit weird that Arthur didn’t burry Hamish, just left him out exposed to the elements 😕
I dragged him to his house via rope lol
Hamish seemed like such a relaxed guy I don't think he would mind. Still yeah would be better.
Take him back to his house and put him on his bed. Leave him in his eternal sleep in peace.

Theres nothing
And rightly so, you should feel that way.

Actually, during the wolf mission, i had a glitch where the pelt stayed on my horse and wouldn’t let arthur take it off and it wouldn’t come off unless i manually sold it, I kept it on until my horse died in the final mission to remember hamish.
Fun fact: Taking Buell gives you more honor dont kill him lmao
Arthur’s friendship with Haemish and the Friendship which was slowly growing into a potential relationship with Charlotte the Widow really started to redeem Arthur
Bro the story has so much heart and made me care for everyone but in online I don’t even care and would be willing to kill my best friend in the online story mode for 5 dollars.
Edit: nvm I would kill my best friend in the online story mode for free
19:13 I wanted to see Arthur explode with rage
Holy shit I miss this game. Haven’t really played online in a few weeks and haven’t played story in months. Definitely gonna replay once semester ends
This is one game that's worth playing over and over again. 😍 I don't touch online though. It bores me. Lol
@@andrewn8002 Hopefully the online should improve over the years like gta 5 did
Andrew I played it a lot during this past semester and loved it but lately I’ve just been too busy with school and trying to play other games
Steve Justice god I hope so
Tyler Matchett Dude trust me replay it. They added a whole bunch of new wild horses (Arabian, Andalusian, Appaloosa), new guns etc to the story mode. Makes the game a lot less boring. And I’ve played story mode 6 times already 😂
This is probably the most wholesome video about RRD that you ever made
7:50 pinnacle of the video. Great video Fizhy, this was one of my favourite series of side missions in the game for sure.
THATGUY - CAM 7:49
Honestly Hamish is one of my favorite characters in the entire game. Something about him rubbed me all of the right ways and his unfortunate demise is one of the most somber moments in the entire game. I took his hat as a sort of memento (mori) but lost it at some point because Rockstar decided his hat shouldn't be savable.
Hamish is one of my favorite characters in the entire game. I hate how Rockstar just killed him off like everyone else
Unlike other characters his death didn't seem right.
charlotte is the only exception
Hamish was one of my favorite characters Arthur meets. I wish we could have done more with him, like just visit his cabin and talk, instead of it always being a mission. I finished his missions in like 2 hours, and it was odd how they were talking in the last mission like they'd been friends for years but in game I'd known the guy for just a few days and spent only a few hours with him. I think it would of been a more emotional mission series if they put more time that needed to pass between his missions and if in the mean time we could go to his cabin and sit and drink with him, take him fishing on the lake, or take him hunting.
SIDENOTE: after getting his special lure, fishing became so much more fun, and ive spent so many hours fishing large pike. the fight is so fun. more enjoyable then most games about just fishing.
Hamish and Rains Falls were both comforting Characters after losing Hosea, the hunting trips and the wisdom, as well as the friendliness from both reminded me of him :')
I love hamish he was my best friend hunting and talking hanging out....and then the boar accident...ive been taking care of his horse ever since taking it for rides across the country and put im away in the stables for a bit and do it again later
It's more fun the play his mission as John, just for the 'you knew a friend of mine while ago' conversation
2:36 Arthur: You better be good you hear?
Buell: shakes head in no
I cried tears when Hamish died and when I used Buell and when he died I bawled tears for hours and cried for days
Interesting fact not sure if it’s significant but O’Creagh’s Run is named after the original voice actor for Uncle John O’Creagh who played him in RDR 1 who signed on to voice him in RDR 2 but passed away in 2016 during the development of the game
Even if you have low bonding with Buell. Arthur will still say thank you to the Buell, unlike other horses you have to have high bonding for Arthur to say thank you.
I loved this part it reminded me of the old vet I met in Colorado. Great guy miss him.
These were by far my favorite encounters and Hamish my favorite person in the game. I was sad how they ended, made it worse is that Buel was my main until the last mission.
“…a good horse but mine’s better.” BANG.
First time I’ve laughed out loud at a video in ages, thank you.
“You can also take his horse but mines better”
*shoots horse*
Lmao
The scene in the first veteran mission where arthur walks buell the horse , advising him was very heartwarming.
I loved these missions. Arthur really needed a friend in his final days. Someone decent and normal too. I like to think that this is proof Arthur was capable of living a calm and peaceful life, unlike the rest of the gang.
This is the last side mission I did before I went to Dutch for the final mission. So I had Buell during the last fight in that mountain. *That scene* pretty much broke me.
7:48 not the sound effects 😂😂😂
Great Video! I actually did catch the Tyrant on my first cast, after Hamish fell in. It took about 25 minutes, but I was able to reel him in without the extra cutscene.
“Arthur look out!!” He says, halfway through the mauling 😂😂
I didn't do the last mission of this until the post game, and Hamish reminisced with John about his friendship with Arthur. It was really sweet, seeing him be all "See that big fish?? Arthur caught that!!"
12:11 I’d honestly love to hear the whole conversation
There are some really nice moments in this game that make you feel good. And going fishing with Hamish was definetly one of the best ones.
No one:
Literally no one:
Fihzy: NEEEEEEOW
A cool detail I discovered after Hamish died is when I returned to his house by the lake a quiet moonlit night, a massive owl landed on top of roof. It didn’t come off as something random at all. I believe it’s supposed to be Hamish in some form.
On my first playthrough I roamed around lake & cabin in chapter two while doing some hunting. I noticed the owl landing on the cabin, then I studied the owl, shot the owl, plucked the owl and then proceeded to loot the cabin. I did all of that, blissfully ignorant of Hamish.
Does anyone else here notice that Hamish and the time travller has the same last name.
Maby is fater
Moon Dawg grandfather
This man gives the hindsight of living off the land without being maniacs like the other gangs in the wild. I enjoyed these missions
When you don’t do the finally mission so hamish stays alive *BIG BRAIN*
I think Arthur found in Hamish what he didn’t have in Dutch. He had a fatherly figure who wanted nothing more than to be Arthur’s friend.
19:42 bro you could’ve taken him to a stable at least, what’s wrong with you?? 😂
Honestly I would have really liked to hear the full conversation before that fade-out
I kinda figured Hamish was gonna die while doing the missions. The missions were just so wholesome. There was no way it was gonna stay wholesome forever.
I don’t think I’m the only one who wishes they hadn’t skipped the conversation in the third mission.
No one else gunna notice how the Wolf just skipped Hamish and went straight for Arthur?
if I remember right my first play through I finished the Hamish chapter as John in 07…did everything but the final one as Arthur, ads some Depth to the story doing it that way
Did you mix Arthur and John?
The veteran was my absolute favorite stranger questline and I wish I could heart Arthur and haymitch talk, don't just cut it
They should have let you take hamish’s hat
You can take it
I went fishing as arthur but after only came back as john and even he was talking about how arthur was a good man polite and it made me feel warm this game can have its wholesome times
I have 2 admit, i started 2 feel guilty when i started this mission cause i robbed his house in chapter 2.
I was not ready for the sound he made when he got dragged by that fish 😅
9:10 umm... I must have no life or something but I’d actually just sat there for whatever reason for ages and I eventually got it without giving up...
Me too, it took my 15 minutes at least
"You can also take Hamish's horse but mines better" *BANG*
Yo Fizhy, If one is want to do a twenty minute video on a specific mission in RDR2, it should be done with this level of care taken. Well done ol bean, thanks for the post, ~Mark~
The story of this lil side quest is so heartwarming
"Not everything you find in the wild of the West is hostile" - might be the case. Still pulling out my good old repeating shotgun faster than my shadow everytime i have a random encounter :D
Hamish is an old version of Arthur same belt blue shirt same shade of brown for the coat/ jacket
