Red Dead Redemption - anyone playing ?

[Mark TKO]

never thought of doing that

to be honest given I used the gold bar cheat I've never needed cash so is there any other point to perfect pelts ?

The gold bar cheat has gone by the way but there is a new one where you can sell a horse that keeps respawning after sale and you can keep selling it indefinitely - again how do people find these things.

You need the perfect pelts so you can upgrade your satchel, gives you 99 capacity for everything so it's well worthit, its pretty fucking time consuming though, must have took me about 8 hours to do

You don't really need any cheats. Money seems to come pretty naturally. I have spent so much time with this one game, it is like a friend. I only get to interact with it a bit each day but I go to it like a cup of hot cocoa. It's pure escapism and I think I am going to be sad when it is over. I didn't really know Arthur at first and neither did he, but I see why they did it like that. You saw all those fan reviews giving it 1 out of 10 but like us had only seen the slow start and in the 'me, now' age that was not enough. But if you approach it like a well crafted novel it is perfect. Much better than GTA imo. Modernity just makes me feel a bit queasy for some reason. Great game too but this is what I prefer. I felt the same way about RDR1. I wouldn't want to visit GTA's world, but Red Dead's world I would.

If they could only make a game where the character you played would say things like “great point Miles, that’s most interesting”, nobody would ever hear from you again.

I would be gone forever. I would love a cameo in a game. I think I would fit into one of the classier saloons making some rather awkward societal observations dressed very nicely in a jacket with nicely parted hair. You chaps would probably shoot me in the head, but I like that world.

Anyone get stranded out in the bogs yet. Ended up on foot in 'Bluewater marsh' pitch black north of Saint denis and it's creepy as shat. Headless riders coming by falling over dead, gator ambushes and some inbred group who look like zombies stalking you into the 'camp fire' cut scenes. Found a poor dude hanging, walked up to him and immediately surrounded by 4 looney shits wielding knifes and laughing. Quicksand too.

You play the game differently to me, Spicoli. I would never think to test the quicksand properties of sand.

Haven't seen that part. I started the epilogue, but haven't had much time to play.

I'm not sure if there are multiple endings to the story, the way mine ended makes me think there maybe be, or it would have always played out that way anyway.

I never found money an issue, just looted everyone. Lots of robberies, the hardest thing for me was completing the bandit challenge fully. The last challenge, you have to rob 5 trains without dying. Took me ages to do, finding the trains, robbing them, fleeing, and then repeating. All the while trying not to get killed. And man f-ck cougars.
