Do you think Jimmy Brooks is a GHOST in Red Dead Redemption 2?
It would make sense if we were death. Maybe Jimmy is a soul he plucks out repeatedly because he does so well at testing people's morals?
or maybe… just maybe… there are just more than one man named jimmy brooks in the world😨
Well if it's 1899 and he was working the post office in 1863 and kids as young as 10 were working the post office that would mean Jimmy would have to be born in at least the early 1850's or before than and considering how young he is than it couldn't be him, it also says he was born in 1842 on the rock that would make bro at least 57 and this jimmy is not 57.
You saved him? I killed him in cold blood😅
thats actually a cool theory
Where is the house or cabin ?
Hes 1000% not a ghost. Uncle, Mary Beth, Tilly, and Karen all saw him and could physically see him just like Arthur. He's not the strange man who only John can see and talk to.
Maybe jimmy brooks isnt even himself
That actually makes a lot of sense….🤯
I kept his pen on my first playthrough and never sold it because I thought it would be relevant again
Idk if it’s a test becasue uncle,Karen mery Beth, and Tilly Jackson saw him right?
Theres 2 gigachad manifestations of death, the strange man and the kickflipping swindling skeleton in manual samuel
That's 36 years
I love those musterious characters kn games…mr.blues eyes, mr glass, etc
Are J.Brooks with the US postal was his father or grandfather
man this game makes you think every whistle is them night folks creeping about
Oh I lowk chose to kill him maybe I shouldn’t have .
So I was right to save the ghost then lol
“The Jimmy we save”
Save? Shit I killed him
clearly he's jimmy brooks the 2nd and his dad worked for the post
I need to know more about Reed Resthon I saw his ghost picture on my screen near the bridge going into bluewater marsh where Agnes Dowd Resides to many mystery's in one game its awesome
What If instead of Jimmy Brooks being a ghost that’s actually just Jimmy Brooks .jr
He is older that 30, I would say 45 minimum
Maybe the strange man is like Anubis. Neither good or bad. Judge, jury, but not executioner. Which could explain his black appearance since Anubis colors are prominently black. And also why he’s always everywhere, Anubis is a guide to the souls of the departed bringing them to the scale that determines their entrance to the realm of the dead. Maybe the honor system is meant to represent weighing scale in the weighing of the heart where one’s actions and morality is weighed to determine their entrance or rejection to the realm of the dead. Maybe that’s why there’s different choices that either lowers or increases your honor when you encounter him. “Damn you” maybe is a subtle nod to possible reaction of damned souls. Accountant might mean how he surveys, tests, and observes John’s behavior throughout their encounters.
Maybe the reason why we could kill the strange man before their final encounter, is maybe another test, and why we couldn’t is because he was preparing to go back to the underworld to escort John to the weighing scale.
Maybe the reason why the strange man didn’t appear as much in rdr2 is because, he was only observing, because he could not intervene with Arthur’s last moments with the van der linde gang (his family), since Anubis’ job was to protect and preserve the dead. John had already completed his life, and purpose which was probably to keep his remaining family safe, after he lost many of his gang family.
The strange man, with probably the same power as Anubis probably summoned and ordered the soul of Jimmy Brooks to test the waters with Arthur Morgan. Or the strange man bound the soul to the duties of testing Arthur and after Arthur either kills or saves him, relieves Jimmy Brooks of his duties.
Yay I saved him 🎉
I started rdr2 again on my ps5 since ive been playing online more. When i met him i accidentally pressed kill instead of save.
Good to know i didnt let him live hes a ghost now
Or the guys name isnt jimmy brooks cuz he didn’t want to give his name away
Omg I killed him😮
Oops
Eh, he could easily just be named after his dad.
No, he isn’t a ghost he is alive. The strange man only said that because he outsmarted death he is Immortal now
Keep in mind 1863 was the height of the civil war
Somewhere this week I went trough all npcs that are in game spawning them in using rampage trainer and I found the strange man
