when I look at the ledger, it's like I"m the only one from my gang 'dontating' :-)
saw a few members of the gang that's in Chapter 3 ( I forget their name) off the road a bit on a bluff. I casually walk up....they start talking noise, and things got tense. until I tossed a stick of dynamite and wipe out all 6 of them. :-)
...I need to get more dynamite. that's a handy tool right there.
The money the gang has can be used to buy upgrades to camp. Which are mostly cosmetic except for the ammo, food, and medicine upgrades which you take and restock for a price. Otherwise I think donating is mostly for honor. I'm not 100% sure. [Reply]
I kinda felt bad beating on Simple Jack, I mean Bertrum.
I beat on that microcephalic motherfucker like it was my job.
I spent an hour earlier today looking for a perfect beaver pelt. I drowned trying to fetch one in water that was too deep, shot one through the ass and ruined the pelt, got bitten by two diamondbacks. God, hunting can be frustrating as hell. [Reply]

Funny I stopped to help some lady close to emerald ranch and got jumped by 3 dudes in a robbery attempt...it wasn't a good idea to do that when I had the double barrel shotgun equiped, they were all missing faces in seconds. [Reply]

Good because once you finish the story it kinda feels like there's nothing to do. I don't even see any bounties left for me to do. Do more bounties ever pop up? I don't really care to find the collectibles or do the challenges. Maybe I'll get around to hunting the rest of the legendary animals I need. [Reply]

That's my worry, which is why i've been in no rush. And for me, once the story is completed i feel no incentive to do any of the minor side content such as bounty hunting or even hunting. So get my fill in now, take my time and enjoy it while it lasts. [Reply]
Here's a link to an article that, I think, points out the biggest flaw of the game: https://www.polygon.com/2018/11/19/1...dr2-challenges
In the first RDR you could do all the boring BS at the beginning of the game and, basically, be superman throughout the rest of the story mode. In RDR2 you can't upgrade your cores to their full ability until after you've finish the game.
I don't have that many hours invested yet, but I find myself having to shoot enemies in the head 3 or more times before they die and take a bunch of vagina tonics to not be killed. Also, for some reason they really don't communicate how the cores work unless you dig deep into the menu.
I seem to be avoiding moving forward in the story until I can upgrade Arthur to replicate the kind of bad ass I want to play as but it doesn't seem that's going to be possible. [Reply]
