Jack should turn into an author at the end. Sadie should be a anti-hero then apart of the law at the end.

The issue is that you’re letting them get away. They can’t get away. That’s the whole point. People don’t get to ride off into the sunset in Red Dead Redemption. The whole point of the first two games was that these characters’ lives don’t work anymore. It’s a bygone era. And they are forced now to pay for what they did. That’s one part of why I don’t like Sadie Adler. She’s arguably the most vicious and murderous person in the gang. She kills without need, she kills with a vendetta, she’s better at it than she reasonably should be, and she faces no punishment. No recourse. Arthur and John did some bad things, and even when they renounce it and do their best to live a good life and find their Redemption, they pay for what they did. John gets used like an asset for the government, before being blasted to bits on his own land. Arthur is chased down like game and only his disease (another ill-gotten commodity) manages to outpace the Pinkertons. So what happens to Sadie, who goes out of her way to instigate huge gunfights and chase people down because of their association, who at every turn has some other tryhard violent outburst to showcase her StrongFemaleCharacter-Ness, who flat out tells a sheriff she killed somebody she didn’t need to? Nothing. She really does get to ride off into the sunset. At least Charles kept a low profile. He was from murky enough of a background, and once the gang collapsed, it seems like he blended in with the Wapiti and became a street fighter. Sadie became a bounty hunter, constantly dealing with the law, and nobody ever thought maybe this Sadie Adler was the same Sadie Adler from that notorious gang that the government was hunting down. Or if they did, she probably killed them effortlessly and without consequence too. This is all to say that a Redemption character who gets away isn’t a very good Redemption character. The tragedy is the appeal.

So Sadie Adler is just a poop sock?

…sure.
