Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

My best example of a random thing so far I walked on to a guy selling a treasure map for $10 which I don't think was marked. I threaten him and he doesn't give me the map so the same options come up and I threaten him again. He drops the map on the ground and I save $10.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

Tried to rob a trainand ended up in a full fledged shootout with the Sherrifs with just my Revolver and Shotgun and it was more fun than any shootout I’ve had in GTA, which is saying a lot.

BTW, Saint Denis is amazing, man. The train I tried to rob ended up taking me there and of course after I died, I did a little exploring around and I can’t wait to go back there. Probably won’t be until I get rid of that $300 bounty on my head that I have there, lol.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

Shooting is this game is a lot of fun. I don't play much on the PS4 anymore and am not so good on the sticks in terms of aiming so I am rusty for sure, but the feel of shooting in this game is done so well. The way the reticule moves from your movememnts, the intensity of the fight, your stamina levels, the gun you're using, and everything else feels so great, so right. You can't just point the gun like a laser anymore and be an expert marksman immediately. It takes practice. So many subtle things cause your aim to bounce around in a slight enough manner that you can feel the pressure of each shot. I still struggle hitting moving targets after so many hours with the game.


I love it. Every single aspect of this game is so deep and detailed that it is unbelievable. I love the effort that Rockstar put into this game and I can only imagine what GTA and hopefully future RDR games are like if this level of effort, love, and care is put into their future projects. There is not a single feature, location, item, animal, activity, etc. that they put into the game and it feels rushed or lacking. You can tell that when they decided to greenlight an addition to the game they put into effort to make even the minute things as deep and detailed as a main thing like missions. When hunting and fishing is as deep as the story, that's passion for making a great, deep game and they killed it.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

If that had been me I would have done what I could to try and follow them to wherever they were headed to raise hell. Knowing the depth and quality of this game it would have probably led to an actual town where they tried something stupid.

That will be me on my next playthrough where I'm going to be a 100% hell raiser

I always have to go the honorable route on my first playthrough with these games. Then when I've been the good guy once, I feel like it's "OK" to be the bad guy... Lol

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

With Marston I was a good guy because it didn't make sense to be bad with the whole narrative that game followed. With Morgan so far I've been more nice than not, but I haven't been the angel I was with Marston. Like the guy that bumped into me in the saloon and called me names. I pulled my gun to scare him, but had no intentions of actually killing him. Well, he pulled his so I put one between his eyes. That felt like something that fit the character of Morgan in my eyes. I've helped most strangers I've come across that are naive people caught in the wild because they don't seem like anyone Morgan would take advantage of, but I've also laid people o train tracks when they crossed me the wrong way.


The dialogue Morgan uses with strangers fits how I've played him. That may be dynamic and fits where my honor level is, if so, that's amazing and cool. If not, I've played a character the way I perceive him to be. If they show me respect I'll do the same to them. If they want to act tough I'll see just how tough they are. Only time I took it easy on someone was when I saw that border collie freaking out over me shooting at the lone rancher.


When O'Driscolls want to talk tough to me in town they get antagonized and get the beating they deserve. When someone tells me to go to hell when I was just saying good morning they get antagonized and a second chance to be nice. I haven't been good, I haven't been bad, I feel I've just been Morgan, an outlaw that sees respect as important as money.

This comment makes it sound like you never encountered this situation.

Considering the hours you've poured in, as well as the detailed breakdown of your long post, I find this to be the most incredible thing about this game.

Here's someone that has spent nearly 30 hours playing this game, doing whatever he wants in the game world, and he didn't come across that situation.

That's how amazing this game is.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

Is Lockdown (due to having a huge bounty for a region) the only time when you'll immediately be identified upon wandering into a town? I tried returning to Valentine with a $20 or $30 bounty and no one batted an eye. I didn't get noticed until I walked right up to the Sherriff's office and antagonized the deputy several times, at which point he yelled "I KNEW I recognized you!" and triggered the Law coming down on me.

I have yet to stumble into that situation. Last time I followed gun shots I found a man shooting at bottles that challenged me to a couple of sharpshooting challenges and was a man of his word and gave me a decent sum of cash.

Some of the comments in this thread go into detail about it. Reddit link.

Yeah, Saint Denis was a layered stunning experience to me. I rode in from the wooden plank road through the mudflats as night was falling, and the the farther in I got, the denser, more modern, and more detailed everything got. Stopped at a hotel for the night, and walked in all dirty and dressed like a cowboy amidst all these well-to-do civilized folk. Next morning I just walked around the city and couldn't get over the diversity of districts and neighborhoods. Whenever I thought I'd seen the whole city, I stumbled into some new and stunning part of it. It's also amazing how elaborate all the back alley network is.

The lighting at all times of day is a sight to behold in this game, but St. Denis is on another level entirely.

If you want to find 3 gold bars, go to you tube and search statue puzzle in RDR 2. I can't possibly explain how to get there, but it's worth it.

I acquired 9 gold bars last night doing treasure hunts and made $4,500.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2

Game play is sluggish, and the fast travel is lacking I find myself sitting in waiting more than plane and legendary animals extremely hard to catch!
Not sure how a headshot can ruin the animal skin??

Based on what I've read about pristine pelts, if the animal drags itself on the ground, the pelt won't be pristine. I'm guessing that depending on where the head shot takes place and how the animal falls, it could ruin the pelt.


That's my guess.



I do think there are a lot of things Rockstar isn't explaining about how the game works. Not sure if that's on purpose or just a bad job of explanining in the game.
