I want to be able to read all the black bars but I also want to enjoy myself for the surely several hours of hunting and stranger missions that follow. Yeah I'm in the same boat right now, I was thinking of saving the treasure maps, hunting, dinosaur bones, and tablet stuff for the postgame but it sounds like I ought to be doing that stuff now. I'm assuming the "fundamental change" has something to do with the ominous looking "wellbeing" status effect in Arthur's character sheet but don't answer that

You can absolutely freeroam and do all exploration stuff post game. As spoiler-free as possible (still putting it in spoiler bars though) the post game is very similar to post game in RDR1, if you played that. Hopefully that gives enough of a hint.

hemale in pain posted:Does anyone else feel the linear story doesn't really match the open world? I'm not very far in to this game but I'm having way more fun loving about in the open world than I do on missions. The way they've handeld the story almost seems outdated now. Every mission is ride somewhere, watch npcs do something, something goes wrong and then you have a big shoot out against like 30 dudes. It doesn't really match the world at all. I can't really play games without a story, i get way bored on survival stuff where there's nothing to do but endless crafting, but the times when you go fishing or hunting with characters, even some stranger missions, are way better than the big gun fight story quests. IMO the story gets better as the game progresses, early game its definitely more fun just roaming around doing poo poo. Later, the story picks up and you feel more compelled to just keep playing it, which then fits together more nicely

Escobarbarian posted:Now in the epilogue and I hope I eventually get to read Arthur’s journal again. fair enough if I have to lose clothes/guns/money, but with John being handed Arthur’s bag I really woulda hoped the journal woulda been in there. Wait, so when you switch to playing as Marston you have to re-buy all of your items and customize everything again? I still have plenty of time before I get that far but that sounds pretty obnoxious.

This game is supposed to have sex and nudity in it, but so far, well into chapter 4, I have yet to see even one  If there is no nudity I can stop kicking my kid out of the living room to play it.

Later, when you get guns again, it will be the upgraded ones, plus John's own revolver.

LENNY!! mission and even then it was just a super brief glimpse of a woman from behind. Knowing the ESRB, they probably counted Arthur taking a bath as nudity.

By the way, you absolutely can save most of the exploration for the postgame, I just personally chose not to due to certain nerdy roleplaying headcanon reasons I grew to like Arthur so much so before the last two missions I had him abandon the camp and just go exploring the world during the last period of his life and did a lot of points of interest and the treasure hunts and all sorts, because I wanted the evidence of him discovering all that stuff in his journal for John to read later on, hence my feelings over that earlier e: probably the Deluxe Baths count as sex lol

Question about the Marston family/Sadie bug. Does Sadie actually have any missions in chapter 2? Originally I read that it was just a Marston bug so when I did get the fishing mission from Jack I thought I was bug free, but today I read Sadie's potentially bugged too. She didn't give me anything in chapter 2 but neither did several other characters, so I don't know if she just doesn't have anything or if she bugged for me.

I believe they reappear for missions. It's camp dialogue and being able to give them requested items that is an issue.

Before the game came out, did anyone else think the bad guy Andrew Milton.... ...was obviously modeled after and surely going to be voiced by Pete Postlethwaite??  When I saw Milton in the prerelease vids I went to Postlethwaite’s IMDb tosee if it was him and discovered the dudes been dead for like 7 years. Why didn’t anyone tell me!?

I saw in the guide that there's supposed to be a treasure map in the jail in the burned out town near camp in ch. 2 if you bought the special edition of the game or w/e, which I did, but I couldn't find the map there so I went into the add-ons menu in the PS4 and either installed or reinstalled the special edition add-ons and then I still couldn't find a map in there and also the burned corpses in the jail mysteriously disappeared

I haven't run into any companion activities with John or Sadie yet but I'd imagine if they have any then bugged people might miss them. That sucks. Some of those missions have great conversations. Most of those only pop at a certain time of day tho, I think, so people may just be missing them due to timing.

All the articles about it make it seem a lot worse than it is then. Those camp conversations are entertaining sometimes but 99% of the time I'm hitting Not Now because I'm trying to eat some drat stew and the dialogue is blocking me.

Argh, so many black bars! Would this game warrant a Spoiler discussion topic? Like others I'm in chapter 4 but all progress towards the story pretty much stopped since I'm doing side stuff. Kind of wish I spent more time in 2 and 3 but that's just how it goes. I'm kind of liking the collect-a-thons in this game except maybe the exotics one, but the guy you're giving them to is quite a fun character and the rewards seem pretty appropriate so I guess it's not too bad.

I've got three days off coming up and I'm planning on just powering thru the rest of the story so I can go back and read the CIA document. I already accidentally spoiled myself on the big ending bits, which lbr I'd pretty much assumed was how it was going to go w/r/t Arthur dying and you playing as John after so nbd but I want to avoid spoiling any of the finer details 'cause I'm surprisingly invested in the characters of this story. Rockstar did a good job on the writing for this one. I usually enjoy their writing but it's usually way too on the nose for me to say it's necessarily great writing. They seem to have struck a good balance here without going too far up their own rear end or leaning too hard into dumb/weird poo poo. Having a save in every chapter will be nice to just bebop around to whenever I want to do side stuff I may miss by powering through. I think I have a save directly after the tutorial, as well, which will be nice for when I want to run through again as a full on black hat instead of doin a ton of crime but balancing it with honour gains so I don't miss out on that mission later as well as get the good ending lmao. Although learning that late/end? game your horse dies is prob the thing I'm most annoyed at being spoiled on lmao, especially because I've managed to get as far as I have without losing Beano, who I stole from the old man who got kicked in the face 'cause he didn't need her any more. I've planned on being real careful with this horse so I can keep her all the way thru so learning her fate is s a d.

My horse bugged. I had the DLC warhorse fully bonded and everything, then one mission the script assigned me the basic starter Tennessee Walker for the mission. Fine, whatever. So I went back to camp to swap the saddle, but I couldn’t find him there. I went to a stable just in case, and it looks like I have two identical Walkers. I’m pretty sure I’m hosed, but how common is this bug? I’d be upset if I put money into another horse and had this happen again.

I had the same happen once, looked away after accepting the ride and when I looked back the wagon driver was running away for his life and arthur was just standing around.
