  Maybe it's because you're a brit, but the way she read "Good luck, Sam" was perfectly normal. People use that exact cadence to express a sense of exasperated futility.

  I actually think the "Good luck -Sam" sounds exactly like it should. She is clearly in a hurry and desperate, but she does make a pause to before saying "Sam". Enough of a pause that I think she absolutely nailed the delivery and I didn't for a moment think she sounded like she was not reading a sign off.

  I don't understand the focus on saying the story was concluded when Red killed the one-armed man who killed his parents and it should've ended there. He got revenge on the person who committed the act, then on the person who GAVE the order, aka the Governor. It also wraps up the literal Chekhov's Twin Gun and explains why there was a "raid" on your family in the first place.

  100 humans die in a video game and no one cares, but when one dog gets wasted, everyone loses their minds.

  The reason as to why the tone is so inconsistent may be because the game was originally developed by Capcom, before Rockstar took over the project. It was originally meant to be a much sillier arcadey game.

  I always loved how each character had different loading screens of them playing around with their weapon

  Correction, Red didn't sign up for the quick draw competition for money, he signed up because the guy who apprehended the buffalo soldier clued Red in on the governor being corrupt and considering the reason for buffalo soldier was apprehended, it must have had something to do with the people who killed his family.

  I played this game til the disk didn't work anymore and then I had the RDR theme as my phone's ringtone for like a year. Needless to say I loved this game.

  The “Good Luck -Sam” scene was leaning more towards menial nitpicking imo. I think the way she said it works better if you put yourself in her shoes. She’s about to save her farm from thugs she can see actively burning down her barn. Her adrenaline is pumping and she’s in a hurry to stop the thugs so she is going to read at a quicker pace, you know?

  Honestly, that &quot;Good luck, Sam&quot; delivery, the whole line read really, sounded about right to me. <br>It sounded like a woman at the end of her rope, reading a note where the last people she had left to rely on were leaving her and it sounded like the result of &quot;how could this day get any worse?&quot; <br>You can hear the frustration in her voice and almost like an unspoken &quot;fuck you sam!&quot; Or &quot;God dammit, this isn&apos;t what I need!&quot; <br>Considering she&apos;s &nbsp;in debt, running out of time, her people are leaving and her last hope was just dashed, right before her farm goes up in flames.

  This game actually has a pretty WILD development history, the arcade-y style shooting is a remnant of when it was being developed for Capcom by a different studio. At some point Rockstar got the rights and more or less &quot;finished&quot; it up and released it. That&apos;s why the game feels disjointed and unfinished at times.
