  Just dropped a new deep-dive on the Hammer of Dawn. Detailing how it was built, why it was used, and what it cost the COG to steal. Easily one of the darkest turning points in Gears history, and the most morally complex story I’ve ever tackled. If you’ve ever wondered what led the COG to fire from the sky… this is the one to watch. <br>📽Watch here:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-B8gGui8oU&amp;t=815">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-B8gGui8oU&amp;t=815s</a>

  i think on that mountain while arthur was dying he realized how he failed his first member and first son, thats why he was speachless after arthur said “i gave you all i had”

  I just noticed that the game both begins and ends with Sadie being saved from Micah by Dutch in a backhanded way

  It’s cool how Dutch left John with all of that money. It was the only apology he was going to get.

  Did anyone else ever notice how as the chapters progressed, Arthur and John&apos;s tents moved further away from Dutch&apos;s?

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTOsUgxV3fI&amp;t=670">11:10</a> micah guns down grimshaw because days ago he saw her pull the trigger on molly. Micah knows she&apos;s got the grit to pull the trigger on a traitor, and that had em feeling threatened, rightfully so.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTOsUgxV3fI&amp;t=251">4:11</a> I love this little moment where they both realize that they&apos;re about to light their cigarettes next to the dynamite and immediately decide to throw their cigarettes away. It&apos;s just a bit of comic relief to an otherwise serious scene.

  the way they both look at the dynamite and decide it&apos;s probably not a good idea to smoke

  I think he solely did it for Arthur. You saw the conflict in his eyes as Arthur was dying on the mountain. Dutch realized his mistakes and upon years of reflection, took it upon himself to redeem Arthur and the gang in that small way. The game is called Red Dead Redemption (2) and I don’t think it’s just about Arthur in this case. Dutch goes crazy in the end but this is the only “redemption” he would be able to achieve being the character he is.

  Every supervisor I ever knew would rather have his ego fondled by a lunatic than have a good employee that tells the truth.

  I love how early on in the game Arthur says “Dutch wouldn’t just hide away in a cave somewhere. It goes against everything he stands for” and then at the end of the game he is LITERALLY hiding in a cave

  Dutch either shot Micah out of guilt/realisation, of how Micah manipulated and alienated him from the rest of the gang - Arthur and John the most. Or it was realising that Michah was done for and time to cut him loose.
