Playing on friend's game. I came across some homestead and was helping myself to the contents of those fine dusty shelves when the "owner" tells me to leave. I started to but as I turned to leave I knew at once that I did not appreciate his tone so I physically altered it with a knife.

Become Arthur "Dexter" Morgan

so I was trying to look at this "rocky seven" homestead robbery. you know, when a guy says YO CHECK OUT THIS HOUSE and "rocky seven" is the only entry in that sidequest list - even though I had at least 3 people tell me about houses to look at. ANYHOW, I was looking for that house, allegedly far north from then van horn tradings post, but upon that search I found something WAY more interesting: a hermit, THE hermit apparently.

I try not to look up things too often on the webz, but I knew something was strange about that guy when he gunned me down with a single shot 3x in a row. and the first time I set foot on his land I lasso'd the dude and hogtied him but didn't want to kill him in fear of losing honor so I untied him waiting to see how he reacts, and then he gunned me down like BAM! so yeah, a special NPC I just stumbled upon.

has anyone else here met him?

Do you guys know if there are any like permanently missable things in the game? Items, weapons, clothing- anything of the sort? And is there a sort of hard cut "point of no return" chapter in this game? Without spoilers naturally, but I'm curious if I can pretty much free roam all throughout the game, or if there's a sort of golden midpoint in the game where everything is opened up and there for the taking?

Edit: And no Henrick, I've not had the pleasure of bumping into your sharpshootin' hermit.

Yeah there are, I posted a link many pages ago.

Generally if you see a gun icon on your minimap, check it out, do side quests before mains, be honorable.

Ahh, just found the post. Good shit Merc, good shit. Fulfilling my request seventeen days in advance. Unprecedented!

Passed an old stranger just now IRL, he said "Howdy" made my day.

Also saw this. I say howdy at least once a day. I'm an old stranger IRL.

oh man

Chapter 3 ending

+

that last mission at the Braithwraite mansion was def a highlight so far. INTENSE! That looong walkway up to their main house always was a visual I liked but REALLY made things more dramatic/cinematic riding up for that final confrontation Also I did find it vry hard to believe Catherine would just tell us where Jack is after we literally murdered her whole family/she had nothing left to lose. But maybe she is still lying...somehow? WHO KNOWS! I did feel a bit bad for her by the end :(

^ I made sure there's a savegame with this mission for replay, since I thought it was cool as fuck aswell!

You can replay any mission, in the story or something menu.

RIP my white arabian :'(
Was fucking around on a mountainside and there was a gap I though he could make, he couldn't, I died, he died, the game autosaved and the last save was a few hours old.

Oh and I finally got to taking those pictures
