Seemed more like an honest ending imo

*spoiler*

The best ending was going with John but to me, if yoyr honor was high you went back more to get revenge on micah. And the symbolism of Arthur cutting micahs eye out is awesome. But Arthur's death on top of the mountain peacefully was the best.

Helping John makes Arthur's death more fulfilling, ik either way ur helping John, but if u go back for the money, and end up failing, its kinda useless and makes u think that u basically abandoned John midway his rescue for no reason when u could have defended him against pinkertons
