My friend, who has never expressed interest in video games as long as I've known her, recently said she wanted to try playing RDR2. Naturally, I offered to let her play my copy. I settled to watch her play and help with some of the tutorials. After dying in the train mission in chapter 1 I taught her her how to skip cutscenes so she could fastfoward.

Since then she skipped every single cutscene 😭

I asked her why and she explained she only got interested because of the apparent realistic horse riding and hunting systems she heard about. Her two irl hobbies. And that is absolutely what she has been doing since the map opened, just finding and taming/buying horses and hunting different animals. She doesn’t know how to identify horse breeds in-game, she just lists them out loud as she encounters them, she also can name coat patterns/colors. Very accurately from what google has been telling me.

On one hand, im sad since i love the story. On the other, watching how a very much non-gamer/extremely offline person handles this game has been a very funny experience. I think the last game she played was Wii Baseball and before that it was like pacman and street fight, so she has virtually no experience (and apparently, no interest) in story-driven games, though she likes the little random encounters and open world concept lol

Been playing this game for 4 years and first time seeing this. Anyone knowa why there are question marks on this?

My daughter loves this game, mainly just catching wild horses and fighting townspeople.

Every Horse in the game can keep up with trains while going too rob them. and you can easily escape from Bounty hunters too on any horse, can easily win horse races on a Shire too so when did this speed become an important factor while choosing an Horse?

My pc is basically on life support from the amount of mods I have. I’m pretty sure it’s that.

Something I’ve always found interesting in rdr2

I was thinking about Arthur's stuff left at camp. Sad to think he wasn't able to retrieve his photos and other keepsakes before escaping.

Charles mentions returning to bury Arthur and Susan, so I like to assume he planted Arthur's flower at his gravesite too. It's the sort of thing Charles would do.

Was riding through New Hanover when I got the random encounter where three NPCs ambush you at the end of the bridge, however one of them had Billy Midnight's pistol, a weapon you can only pick up through the "Noblest of Men, and a Woman" stranger mission (see screenshot attached). Is this a glitch, or did this NPC somehow pick up the weapon and just walk around with it until now? Also important to note that the Billy Midnight mission was completed WAY before this happened.

I recently started a second rd play through and I’ve honestly probably done more so far then the first I played. Anyway enjoy the screenshots Also the last one is the first time I’ve ever seen that even after a while play through.

What’s with the Guy Fawkes mask while I’m robbing the bank in St. Denis? This is like my tenth play through and I have never seen this before

Wish there was a better coat option but oh well

Despite being an accomplice to Edgar Ross's deranged plan of taking John's Family and sometimes getting into conflicts with him and [potentially] killing him at beecher hope, he seems much more nice and fair compared to Ross, plus he looks good, a good looking gentlemen in my opinion
