Misconception and the logical reason about the “Return for the Money” ending in RDR2 /u/Heeronix Red Dead Redemption

I’ve seen a lot of people misunderstand Arthur’s decision in the “Return for the money” choice, and I think it’s worth discussing. The logical answer behind his choice isn’t just about greed or revenge, it’s about pride and what he believes is rightfully his gang’s.

Arthur isn’t just going back for the money for himself; he wants to take back what he believes belongs to his gang, not let traitors steal it. His pride won’t allow him to accept that all of their hard-earned money could be taken away so easily because of betrayal, especially when so many of their gang members who is part of the contributions have already died. It’s more about protecting what they worked for than any personal gain.

So, next time you watch that scene, try to look past the surface and see that Arthur’s decision is driven by a deeper sense of honor and loyalty, not greed.
