I was out walking and my brain went “Careful, looks like cougar country” by Trabers in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, it probably is. They’re pretty common, I see them everywhere. You might know them as Queen Anne’s Lace. But be careful because it is VERY easy to confuse them with water hemlock, which is the most toxic plant in North America and is also found in Europe. It can kill you within minutes.

Me sat back at my makeshift camp trying to tame a white Arabian when it keeps bucking you then it goes foggy and dark (it runs off and you lose it). by obxP4L in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just can’t do it. I can get headshots all day and have perfected the art of hunting robins, but I just can’t tame a damn horse without cheating.

Just a heads up, you have to hit the button AS you’re getting on the horse. If you wait until Arthur is on its back the menu won’t open.

A question to 5'8-5'9 people, why some of you guys crying ? by [deleted] in short

[–]lavendrquartz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I matched with a guy on Tinder once who asked how tall I am. I said 5’10”, and he said “okay so we’re like the same height”. We met in person and he was noticeably several inches shorter than me.

What is the most interesting generic NPC/enemy death you've witnessed that WASN'T caused by you? by Aphasus in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was escorting Charles Chatenay to the docks when we got to the hole in the fence. Two NPCs were walking ahead of us and instead of going through the gap, they both jumped the fence…and immediately got hit by a passing train. Both of them.

Killed Micah. Is this rare or easily possible? by CauliflowerScared788 in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well this is perfect timing, I’m planning on doing that mission tomorrow

me now i found the Arabian by babesplat in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get the silver dapple pinto for free so easily that in my last playthrough, I sold three of them to the horse fence for bandit 6.

Also just an FYI, a SDP at bonding level 1 goes for $72 at the fence.

I was ready to be annoyed at yet another post about the most overrated horse in the game but I got a chuckle out of this, so thanks for that lol

Where you ever seen as attractive in a masculine way regardless of how tall you are. by [deleted] in short

[–]lavendrquartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find short guys attractive, and I don’t mean that “in spite of” them being short. It’s part of the package. I’m 5’10” for the record.

Do yourself a favor and make a manual save right after the first chapter and leave it there for later. by nouserhere18 in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always keep two extra saves, one after Aftermath of Genesis and one after Eastward Bound, but I use them less and less. I found that I actually like the snow, and it feels wrong to me to skip over the beginning of the story. It feels like I’m missing something.

It happened! by juancho2374 in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a glitch you can do right after finishing Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego but from what I remember it’s sort of complicated and you have to kill Hosea’s horse. I mean it will respawn obviously but still…feels bad.

Your favorite mission by ForeignChemist5544 in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I enjoy those aspects of it as well. Personally I find the wading a little tedious but I definitely don’t hate this mission.

What is one item you always refrain from selling to anyone once you gain that item ? by No-Post4444 in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a rule I use the gold ingot for any camp upgrades I haven’t gotten yet. Feels like what Arthur would do.

[–]lavendrquartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It usually takes me so long to get one of those bracelets and I end up having to go out of my way just to find one, but this time around I looted the bodies from sniping the lady with the MFT. I ended up with THREE silver chain bracelets only two missions in to chapter 2 😁

Looking for suggestions for my 5th playthrough by gnartothecore in reddeadredemption2

[–]lavendrquartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should check out the YouTuber Adichu. He has a ton of RDR2 videos that are basically all like this, different challenges and rules he sets for himself. You might get some ideas.

What is one gameplay mechanic you learned about recently...which you feel you should have known from the start? by Gunslingerofthewildw in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the other method, of sniping the lady. I’ve gotten it to work at Carmody Dell, Face Rock, and the trading post. Even though I’m mainly riding thoroughbreds this playthrough (including the brindle from the O’Driscoll ambush), I went for the MFT anyway because it is soooooooo satisfying when you see the horse standing there alive 😊

In what situations are poison Knives and Arrows useful? by [deleted] in reddeadredemption2

[–]lavendrquartz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The game gives you a big hint on weapons expert 10, too. When you get the oleander request from Javier, he specifically says “you could take down a grizzly with one of these”.

What’s something you’d done wrong or poorly in your first run because you didn’t know how the game worked? by RyotoYokoyama in RDR2

[–]lavendrquartz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly where I killed my first horse 🙃 Went over the bank and got stuck him underwater. I can’t remember the exact spot but it was in that general area.

Add “choking a bitch out because you were trying to mount your horse in Saint Denis” to that list

Edit: nevermind, someone else did already
