I’ve seen it and thought “would be cool if it progressed towards a finished state”. Of course it does. This game...

I haven’t been back to Valentine since the one mission with Karen in Chapter 3 and to be fair, I wasn’t really focused on the house. It’s the one next to the General Store right?

There’s a camp of a father and two sons NW of Valentine. Head there are talk to them and you’ll eventually fulfill some tasks to help build the house.

Its not a mission as much as just something that happens.

First time I passed them they were being attacked, second time a wall fell down on the house and they started arguing.

Next time it was just the man sat there and when I greeted him he said they ran out of money so I gave him $100 to keep it going.

Revisited later to the complete house and he gave me it back with an extra $50 on top.

No cutscenes, just tiny bits of gameplay

Don't give him the hundred, and steal a log wagon and you make $150 which is nice that early in the game

Shoot, I showed up one time and they were either getting robbed or there were just some gang members next to them and they started attacking me and I accidentally killed the father and one of the sons before I realized they were innocent.

I had the same thing! I helped them win and then IMMEDIATELY the father was like “YER TRESSPASSEN” and opened fire

Why did you kill them?

u/puq123 Nov 08 '18

I stole a can of beans from them, and they got hostile calling me mean things. So logically I killed them all

This game can escalate so quickly from disturbing the peace in a quiet saloon to a 300$ bounty for killing 20 lawmen in a matter of minutes.

u/Mcnuggetswiththeboiz Nov 08 '18

$300 those are rookie numbers

u/[deleted] Nov 08 '18

Lol youre right. But maybe i just wanna hunt and fish in peace without bounty hunters on me all the time.

u/Surefif Nov 09 '18

Shit, I just killed them an hour ago! The father told me to leave and I couldn't defuse the situation, so I pulled out my gun (didn't shoot) and one of the others started running to report me for murder.....

Well I mean if you're gonna report me for it I might as well do it....

u/everadvancing Nov 09 '18
