I watched a man get kicked to death by his own horse while he was trying to fix it's shoe. I watched The Ballad of Buster Scruggs yesterday and the line, "Things have a way of escalating out here in the west" seems to ring very true in RDR2. Also, throwing a head at a serial killer and then kicking his rear end and tying him up to take him to jail, only to have him try and eat the sheriff and taking a bullet to the neck was pretty cool. I hung around afterwards to read the jail ledger and got a 10 dollar disturbing the peace bounty. Is there any other good creepy side stuff like the spoilered bit?

My current horse (not sure what breed) does a weird stutter step occasionally so I can't time it's gallop properly. Cassadega is a good horse but I think I'll go back to Arienette, Lua, or Supriya.

Hey I killed the legendary cougar and the mission made me take it to a butcher. Should I have bucked that and gone to the fur trader with it? I see he sells things that require a legendary cougar skin.

Two things I don't like but I feel add to the authenticity of the old west experience:

- Having to put down a horse because lack of horse reviver.

- hitting a deer wrong and having to quickly end it's suffering while it writhes around on the ground making godawful noises.

i accidentally gut-shot a cougar and spent several minutes standing stone-faced over its writhing body as it struggled to die

You're a monster. Just shoot it in the head. I came across a guy who was dying or something and I offered him medicine and he said he didn't want that poo poo so I shot him in the head and left his body in the woods. It's about compassion. Also poo poo does your honor affect the outcome of the game? My shits firmly in the grey in Chapter 3 right now.

So I'm doing the chatenay mission and everyone is walking around an empty gallery where it appears the paintings are not rendering properly for me. Everyone is getting worked up over imaginary paintings. It's quite artsy.
I'd link a video but I'm doing this in the epilogue so its spoilerific.

Banksy A.D. 1899 strikes again.

I guess I'm too slow at random camps. I'll walk up, they'll tell me to gently caress off, and I'll get on my horse and go away only for them to start shooting at me while I'm a good distance away. It hurts my honor but I make it a point to to back and brutally murder them.

So in Chapter 5-6 when you find out you have the TB did anyone else immediately dress their character as Doc Holliday from Tombstone and then go on the Arthur is dying redemption tour while saying things like, "My hypocrisy knows no bounds".? I just finished the mission where Dutch kills Cornwall and had to stop for the night. I gotta work the next 4 days so hopefully I can wrap up the story on my next days off.

My good friend Hamish gets me through the Chapter 6 tough times. A little time with him and I'm ready to get back at it.

Chapter 6 offers opportunities to go fully into the red or fully into the white. That's how I got the achievement.

I went for max honour and couldn't cap it until near the end of chapter 6

I didn't do any grinding of stuff that I could have like throwing back fish or saying hi to everyone in the world, maybe it's chapter gated like the maximum hair growth supposedly is (even with tonics you can't go past certain lengths without progressing the story, apparently)

First thing I did was absolve both debts and kick Strausse out of my loving camp. Then I helped the Downes family and boom I was max honor. I was firmly in the middle before those two things.

How do you do that?

Well you get the Money Lenders and Other Sins or whatever it's called missions. There's two of them. One is an army deserter. If you help him out in a fight with the army you get the option to absolve his debt and give him money to start a new life. The other one is a woman who's husband died in the mines and you can choose to give her money and absolve her debts. You then go back and confront Strausse. I won't spoil how that exchange goes.

Really though just do original RDR again. Make it a 60 dollar expansion I don't give a gently caress just do it.

Wouldn’t mind seeing Mexico again with rdr2’s graphics

I don't make videogames so I don't know how hard it would be to add the characters and side missions from RDR1 but with the updated systems like hunting but wouldn't it be great to have Red Dead Complete edition spanning 1899 all the way up until John's death in 1912(?) I think. Also the Adult Jack stuff. I don't know if I have to spoil RDR1 but just in case.

Just had the credits roll. Holy poo poo watching Micah, filled with holes, laugh, turn around, and fall over dead was so good. The whole game was so good. There's a few things left but I think I'll leave them undone. I've had just the right amount of RDR2. A very good Rockstar game™. Also the first one I've seen through til the credits other than all the Max Payne games.

Panthers can also spawn during the day in that area.

Just ride out there

Ride around for awhile and realize you're never gonna get a panther to spawn

Hop off your horse and pull your varmint rifle to hunt the large amount of Badgers in the area

Get instantly attacked by a panther while you realize you left your bow on your horse.


Fuckin panthers.

I found him but I didn’t even think about the second thing. I was just like “can’t talk or otherwise interact huh? Oh well bye”

He repeats "Papa" over and over very sadly so I put a bullet in him. He didn't ask for life and all the burdens it came with so I relieved him of his burden.

I broke down and played some more online. I hadn't messed with it since it first launched. It was alright enough. I bought a rod and a lake lure with some of my free gold. I then bought a pump action shotgun. I got a notification that someone was escorting a wagon so I went to the wagon and it said to destroy the supplies so I did and some child called me the n-word while I repelled them with the shotgun over and over. Then more fishing. S'alright I guess. Just kinda boring.
