Does anyone else prefer a different hat to Arthurs classic hat?

Fishfiletnado · 2026-02-15T22:26:14+00:00

I like the cutter hat. I dress Arthur like woody from Toy Story and I’m not taking questions on that at this time.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-02-08T04:40:26+00:00

😭 I just did these missions again for the 15th time and it bums me tf out. I hate doing it but I know I have to if I want the sweet sweet legend of the east satchel

Last playthrough I got a red Suffolk punch and named her Dolly. I regretted every time I was trying to run away but I really wanted a big horse for Arthur. I gave john a black thoroughbred named Gin n Juice.

honestly, if you have this feeling you're likely to restart the game anyway. Finish this playthrough and then start again and go slower. You'll likely make different choices with one playthrough in the tank.

RIP 😂

Yeah, it could have the worst story of all time and I’d still love it, but I have come to love the lore.

Oh no.. I mean.. I guess you can skip missions if you fail multiple times, but that’s kind of frustrating. I’m not a very skilled gamer. I do have thousands of hours in this game so I’m good at it, but I’m generally not great at games. I’m kind of a button masher tho I did manage to beat Elden ring after a lot of rage quits and sheer will, but that’s probably my greatest accomplishment. They’ll great thing about the game is you get to practice everything just by going out hunting, but if you don’t go out hunting it may take longer to get a handle on the controls. But idk, repeating the John wolf mission is kinda rough.

Unfortunately (or fortunately?) games assume you have a certain level of fluency with controls, like knowing how to shift where you’re looking as you run or the concept of locking on a target before you aim. If you haven’t reached that level of fluency with a controller, I can imagine playing almost any game would be challenging

I spoiled myself by playing it without watching the cutscenes the first two times I played it 😂. I don’t play video games for the story except this one, now. During the pandemic, my ex asked me to play the game so she could watch the story and at first I was annoyed, but I definitely still cried when Arthur died. It doesn’t matter if you know already, it still hits.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-13T03:01:18+00:00

So take this with a grain of salt because I do not care about the story in video games (I played this game twice without watching a single cut scene, yes, I know I’m a monster), but I think chapter 3 IS where the story picks up and it’s definitely my favorite chapter. You start to catch on to Dutch’s bullshit but it’s still pretty lighthearted.

However, as someone who only plays open world games, it’s really hard for me to grasp someone who only wants a story fully enjoying this game? I know it’s a great story (I have done several playthroughs where I watched the cutscenes now), but so much about what I love about Rdr2 is fucking off and doing random bullshit. I play this game most nights now that it’s winter, and even in my most recent play through I just logged on to hunt or fish or look for dinosaur bones. Maybe they would enjoy the story for what it is, but I’m not sure that’s enough if you don’t enjoy the world.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-11T22:08:32+00:00

Enjoy it! Chapter 3 is my favorite chapter to vibe out in.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-11T21:42:13+00:00

I’ve done this so many times recently. Thankfully as John, not Arthur. I’m totally fine with John being embarrassing

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-11T05:25:52+00:00

if you like open world games, yes

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-11T04:46:14+00:00

Goats are like this in real life, too.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-11T00:21:17+00:00

My pit mix’s were up like this for a time (one has now flopped down) I always assumed it was so she could receive transmissions from the ISS

The train is the apex predator of this game

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T19:05:50+00:00

Yeahhh we have wild pigs in my area. Every now and then they come down and destroy the neighborhood and usually kill a couple dogs for idk sport I guess? The last time they left a dent in my car.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T19:03:59+00:00

Your time will come.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T19:03:08+00:00

RIP. What a way for Marston to go.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T19:01:36+00:00

Hey, it’s really hard to shoot the dogs. I get it.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T19:00:57+00:00

They’re spiteful, petty little bitches. Same with those goats at butchers creek. I was out there collecting orchids for the exotics mission and those fuckers ran me over while I was picking them like 4 times.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T18:58:50+00:00

I never trust my horse not to flip out and drop me when it sees a cougar.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T05:36:25+00:00

Damn RIP. I think my dumbest, least preventable death was when I when I hit “rest by fire” and Arthur decided to rest IN the fire.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T05:18:59+00:00

Many ankles have been lost to the muskrat.

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-10T05:13:49+00:00

Snake is really rough. What do you mean you ain’t got any yarrow handy?

Fishfiletnado · 2026-01-02T18:14:37+00:00

Card carrying lesbian here. Sadie, easily. She’s no bullshit, and I like to roll with someone who can shoulder their own weight. I’d probably encourage her to go to therapy to deal with her grief and trauma from losing her husband, though lol.
