Arthur Morgan – Red Dead Redemption 2

Arthur Morgan’s death in Red Dead Redemption 2 remains one of the most emotionally stirring deaths in recent games. Players start with a cowboy who did everything in his power for the Van Der Linde gang. But as the game progresses, he starts growing disillusioned with Dutch’s grand plan and grows more caring for the needy and helpless around him just when he discovers he’s inflicted with Tuberculosis. This compelling character arc comes to an abrupt end during the game’s finale after he helps John start a new life away from the gang. I guess he did earn his redemption, after all.
