I got to play this for 5 mins the other day at my sisters. I lassoed an innocent farmer and dragged him around with a horse for a while. Fun times.

Today I lassoed a man who tried to steal my horse and dragged him next to a grizzly bear. Then I watched him die. It was great.

I just entered chapter 3. so caught up with stangers and hunting..

btw I reproduced the elk trinket bug, not showing up in player stats/as in not effective. I guess

Finished chapter 3 last night, RIP my sleep schedule, overslept this morning but it was worth.

Chapter 3

+

Holy shit those last 3 missions were awesome, the missions so far have been good, but those three turned it up to eleven. So many cool moments, like walking up to the house and then when burning it, shooting the last 4 Grays, Sean dying suddenly(RIP Sean :( ), when you were trying to escape from the O'Driscoll's and they got you again. Got so immersed into the game it was crazy, haven't felt that in a while. I finally get the Micah hate, I started to antagonize him in the camp lol

I also hunted the legendary Buck down yesterday, and got some nice 3 star pelts on the way, including Cougar and Wolf. I'm looking forward to getting the best satchel.

Realized I haven't done the gunslinger missions yet, want those unique guns, plan to do them tonight.

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

haha it seems like I will never get anywhere near a better satchel, and really that BEST satchel I am FAR AWAY from, oh men
speaking of the g7unslingers, I visited 3 of those so far, their revolvers look unique but don't do much damage. I used them most of the time for the style, but finally that double action revolver unlocked, so I bought a pair, and now decided to get lost in weapon customization. FUCK that satchel, for now (:

I realized it is even in my satchel to see, under KITS, I guess it must be effective, so I hope at least! It just doesn't show in the "menu". moose and elk, not discovered!

The guns aren't great, but that mission was so much fun. Think that was my favorite stranger strand, easily.

Honestly, the stranger mission game is strong in this one. All of them were very fun and memorable. Though admittedly I've done zero of the collectibles ones.

^ flaco mission was great. I hated being out there again in the goddamn snow, but the gunclapping was intense and it was the very FIRST duel I was challenged to.
pew pew, adios amigo!
btw. the duel system was obviously overhaul'd and they watered it down to the essentials, but I'm absolutely ok with it as there's no mistakes about what it is you actually do - figuring that out in RDR to this day is a challenge of its own.

ah KC that avatar, nice 'stache!
reminds me, I need to find a way to get screenshots off the PS4 and onto my PC.

Flaco was the last one I did and the way he responded to Arthur made for a brilliant end to that whole thing. Loved it!

The only thing I dislike about the snow area is there really isn't anything to do there, I wish they at least put a little town out there or something. Like some little dumb bullshit town like Van Horn or Armadillo. Unless there is one I missed? I liked the setting for the gang out there, it reminded me of The Hateful Eight.

nope don't think so, all I saw was.....SNOW!

Since I was there I caught the white Arabian, found some legendary animal too but I killed it in the water and couldn't skin it, I reloaded the autosave and the carcass bugged out so that it didn't float so I couldn't even push it to land.

Luckily the game expects shit like this to happen so the trapper or something automatically skins it for you, you get the parts (sent to the trapper) and even that you skinned it in the completion thingy after a while.

A random encounter happened on my way back and the guys left a white Shire (The big fucker) and I wanted it too to name it Little John and the Arabian Big John, but another encounter happened on the way next to train tracks and the dumb horse was chilling on the tracks, I called after it when I realized a train was coming but it was too late :'( RIP Little John

Oh and I found out that you don't have to hold X when doing the cinematic travel thing, it keeps going when you release, super convenient for the long trip to Flaco.
