I just snuck in another hour but I’m done for the day. I killed an Elk, skinned it, then some ****s took me out about 100m from camp.
It is a slow burner, but I wish it was a bit more fast paced. Plus it’s too easy to ring up a huge bounty which you’re unable to afford. I prefer GTA to this.
Feels like RDR1 with chains on so far. Definitely not believing the hype yet, I’ll give it a few more hours and if it doesn’t improve vastly I’ll **** it off.
It's slow all through the snowy bit that gives you all the skills. Once out it's at your own pace, wander and do your own thing or just keep the action going and select missions.
I'm loving it and appreciate the slow pace, I'm more likely to go hunting, play poker and side missions than the main story. I'm blown away at the moment and just hope it doesn't get repetitive. The Westworld comparison is right.
You owe me 50 quid if it gets repetitive...you said it wasn't repetitive like Assasin's Creed...and I bought it.
Mate it starts off repetitive ffs. I think I’m gonna have to tombstone Luvgonzo on the Llandudno train station platform very soon.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m enjoying it and love the hunting. Need to find a fishing rod so I can do a spot of that, but I think I get that through a side mission with Charles. I’m on a mission at the moment where I have to steal a wagon. I failed the first time, but I racked up a huge bounty which I would never afford. So I’m wandering, if you don’t pay it off, what happens? Go to prison? Or get hung?
Doing the jobs around the camp seems to be the way to go before setting out by yourself, they give you the core things you need like access to stables, fishing rod etc.
