I had played the entire game fairly and squarely. I had listened to his anti-semitic crap for the entire saga. Then while playing as Jack he made a comment about how John Marston was a hired killer for the Jews, and I just had enough. I went outside, put on my bandanna, then came back in and shot him in the face point blank with the shotgun for insulting my dead pappy. It was completely uncalled for. Should I be ashamed?
i did almost the exact same thing. played it through all nice as john and then playing as jack first time i went to armadillo went into herbert moons shop and look at his merchendise he says "john marston was a hired killer for the jews" i left the menu took out my pistol and shot him 6 times in the face.
you should not be ashamed. everytime he says that *beep* i shoot him in the face with something or if im actually playing as a bad guy i tie him up take him out to lake don julio and drown him.
Anyway, I thought you were talking about that crazy guy. (SPOILERS AHEAD, WARNING ! DONOT READ IF YOU ARE NEW TO THIS GAME IT WILL SPOIL IT FOR YOU !!!) The crazy guy you pick the flowers for.
I spent ages picking the Wild ferflew, came back, it wasn't right, so I hired the coach man to travel WAY out to the wilderness in hope of finding "other flowers" (by this point in the game I had never seen the other types). So I got them, came back.
I almost thought something might be wrong, that tiny little shack is where he and his wife live ? It's barely the size of my kitchen . So I got back and sure enough, his wife turned out to be a rotting corpse.
After "Sorry, I've got an appointment back on Planet Earth." (was the word "planet" even used back then ?) anyway, I decided to go back and put the deluded old man down.
You're form of redemption was rather softcore compared to mine.
I shot him in both kneecaps, hogtied him then travelled to the Manzanita Post where the bears are at, put him in an open area and watched the action, looted his body (got $5) then lit his body on fire and finally shot him in the face with a Schofield revolver.
I think I killed him pretty early on despite trying to gain honor. Then about mid-through the game I kneecapped him and ran away.
Some of the mayhem visited upon him from you people is hilarious. I guess he's like every other racist *beep* though. Kill him and another one just pops up.
