Why did the ending of this game have to be so depressing? I thought ending it on a high note with his family would have worked just as well.

He was a shitty criminal, didn't deserve happiness since he took the same happiness from hundreds of innocent people himself.
The fact that they gave him that life for just and bit and then ended is what was so crushing. Then Jack goes down the same dark road.
he was a degenerate and a thug he deserved to die
Because the wild west died.
Now we have what we have
look at it
that's the American west now
At the end I was a young man out from under the shadow of his often absent drunken degenerate murderous father. And I got to keep all his house, guns and money.
Not that depressing.

Westerns don't get happy endings.
It's either a ride into the sunset with a unspoken 'to be continued', or you pull a Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

I cried on the ride back to his family.
Its like his dreams finally came true.

You actually thought those jews were gonna keep him alive? Yeah right, I knew some shit was gonna go down so I wasn't that suprised, but still sad.
>There always had to be a happy ending
Christ can you people fuck off? I bit diversity in that makes it at least interesting and also realistic.

Cried when he was shot up.
>however many years later, after his mother dies, Jack is living by himself on the farm

A sad ending is not any more realistic than a happy ending. Stop being such a jaded fuck.
It's far more realistic that John would have been ignored and forgotten as a relic of the past, not that an entire army would be employed to hunt him down specifically. John needed to die and he needed to die as a hero, not just falling off his horse while drunk or something, so they invented a completely farcical scenario for him to go out in a "blaze of glory". The whole thing was just stupid.
