my reaction to 'unshaken' (RDR2)

originally streamed live on twitch!

I would give anything to play this for the first time again

"May I... stand unshaken... Amid... Amidsts of crash of worlds..."

This song perfectly embodies Arthur... He was a man who was born into the life of The Old West. The life of an outlaw was all he ever knew... So, when his world began to crash with the changing of the modern world, he stood unshaken... For those he cared about. Even as he was dying, even as the modern day tried to be rid of him and his kind, he was unshaken... For himself... For everyone. For Sadie... For Abigail... For Jack... and for his brother, John...

Always gonna miss Arthur...

Fun fact: if you play this song to a glass of water, it'll instantly turn into a bottle of bourbon. Its just that smooth

It began to rain as the music played for me and a storm rolled in. Due to the lyrics I legit thought that was scripted and it felt so dam epic as he rode with lighting bolts striking in the distance. I'm just now realising it wasnt and how I got by luck a treat of a scene.

This is what makes a 10 out of 10 game. It is not perfect but it's the MOMENTS that make it great.

[J_Rossi]

Two of the most emotional moments in the game. This and the last ride to Beaver Hollow. Both times it was just Arthur riding a horse and reflecting, but few things have ever hit harder.

During this ride Arthur learned many realized it was all coming to a end and he realized Dutch had faults and the people who masked them were gone.

This song hit me hard when i heard it, and i thought something bad will happen...
This ride back to Shady Bell was perfectly staged.

[TheHeartofRNB]

Epic moment in the game. Once I realized it was D’Angelo (when he starts singing out and hitting the falsetto), that made it even more epic as I’m a huge fan of Voodoo (the album) and always respected his pen.

[jyhas]

That's D'Angelo an r&b artist

[paul-jprb]

my one regret in life is i cant play this game without knowing the whole story from scratch again :(

[jtroost]

I legit started crying when this song came on during my playthrough. All the feels during this scene.

[jayofford]

This to me was just more than a game. I love it so much that it will always have a place in my heart. RIP Arthur Morgan.

Honestly no matter who, this game can break any person. I had a friend who was SERIOUSLY a tough guy gangster wannabe, but after playing this game he felt broken.

[SatansGreatestSoldier]

;( Arthur riding back not as just a son of Dutch....but as his own man, finally. And Arthur made sure that he was going to do his best to leave a good imprint on this world on his own-terms, before he passed.

[Rendezvous]

That song has been stuck in my head and on loop since then 😭😭 it’s just so good

[tecky]

She really called this country folk. This is some soul/REAL r&b.

[aephony]

The greatest single player experience in video game history. Bravo Rockstar. Bravo 👏

[Saibot]

D'angelo is a legend in r&b/Jazz. I've been listening to this song again randomly..I forgot how good it was, I feel like it speaks to me.

[davida]

I didn't expect this when I was playing the game, it was so touching, the game is an absolut masterpiece.
