      Yes. Please gimme LS sensitivity and I'll be golden. Crossing my fingers they'll include it for a future patch.

        This world is so vibrant and rich. I may finally be able to use another game title in the same sentence as RDR.

          This game will punish you for not preparing for a battle, using resources too fast in battle, etc.

          You really have to learn patterns/moves of enemies.

          It's a fun, challenging experience for me so far.

            I'm pretty sure when I fought the griffin I was so sloppy w/ resources that "your hand" was going to be the next item up to eat to regenerate health.

              Anyone else like to actually travel on foot/horse and not use the travel post?

              I do.... Sometimes if it's really far I will use the post

              I'm also getting pretty good at the combat. At first I thought it didn't feel right but now it's a blast

                  RDR was (is) a masterpiece but this one is really a MASTERPIECE. The side quests are absolutely phenomenal. If a RDR2 is in works the R* devs should see how TW3 devs design the side quests of the game. The same applies for GTA ofc.

                    Great game, with a lot of depth with alchemy, strategy, fighting, story, etc.. just some small gripes is all I have. No one jump me. Here's one of my few gear grinders.

                    It's fairly easy to manipulate interactions in the world. AI are programmed to not cross certain boundaries. I intentionally just ****ed around for a few minutes just to test it out..

                    Does the difficulty impact this type of thing ?

                        I just finished a small side quest that you get around level 5, I found it on the board in a next to nothing town. It is called Wild at Heart and embodies all of that, without giving anything away it took me like 8 tries to finish the end part.

                        Just to get that much satisfaction from finishing a small random side-quest is why I'm enjoying this game so immensely.

                          After patching make sure to set your texture quality back to where you had it. The patch changed reset mine to low.

                          The texture quality improved in 7 days.

                            The AI can be really dumb at times

                            Once when I was only a little ways into the game I ran into a group of bandits. Decided to use my crossbow since I just got it and I literally stood about 10 yards away shooting them. All they did was stand there the whole time looking at me and yelling they were gonna kill me......

                            Took a long time so it wasn't worth the trouble but they will not go after you until you get so close and also will not be lead off to far before they just turn around and leave right in the middle of combat

                            I am on the second hardest difficulty

                              Uh oh.

                              I just read about a game-halting cross-platform bug for the Pyres Of Novigrad main quest. I guess a lever you need to pull or door you need to open in the basement of the level can't be interacted with.

                              Apparently it's non-reversible even when loading a previous save.

                              I'm nowhere near that quest but now part of me wants to advance there to see if I'm just prolonging the inevitable. Has anyone experienced this or progressed beyond that point at all?

                              Anyway, I'm backing up to USB tonight for sure just to be safe. Though apparently this method won't fix this specific bug.
