You're missing out. I think 90% of my enjoyment from the story of this game came from knowing the story of the first!

maybe I'll grind it out a bit more then Gee.
hunting challenges? I seem to have missed those!
This is the annoyance for me. I read somewhere that this was a 'different story' set in the same universe so assumed I didnt need to play rdr1. Not once did I hear it being labelled a prequel.
Even more annoyed that I had started the PSNow version a while back and just chucked it because of the low fps. I woulda stuck with it if I'd known how the two were related.
Yeah it's for some woman, pretty certain the first part starts at the post office/train station in valentine. It's a poster on the noticeboard.
It's quite the task though, you have to get perfect carcasses from various small animals; squirrel, rabbit, robins, chipmunks etc. I must've spent a good 45 minutes looking for a Woodpecker!

It would've helped in appreciating the characters of Dutch, Bill, John, Uncle, and Jack, and whoever else was name dropped / cameo'd. It would've also made the last 2 chapters mean something other than feeling like a complete waste of time, bar the last mission.
I didn't read much about it tbh, I've only this month become a PS4 peasant casual.
Getting the same feeling from this chapter, I think I'm starting to get a bit of burn out as it's starting to get a bit tedious.
8/10 it's not a masterpiece imo but a good game overall.
Plenty of good but also plenty of flaws. I'd suggest watching some streams (not gameplay vids which condense action into short videos) to get an actual feel for the pace of the game.

I'm glad it's not just me, I love all the side stuff you can do but the story is beginning to drag it's arse like a worm ridden dog

honestly if you liked the first RDR then just get it
I'm giving it a 9/10 as it is right now on Xbox One X
Struggling with it myself, but I think that's more to do with the type of game I like than the game itself.
I just can't be bothered with the whole, make sure you eat otherwise you lose weight, bring me this and this material and I will craft this for you etc.
It's not my idea of fun in a game but sadly a lot of single player games seem to go down this route.
I want sexy graphics and fun gameplay, I don't wanna be spending an hour finding a certain type of leaf so someone can craft a weapon for me.
I don't recall GTA5 being like this?

You are not forced into any of that though unless you are chasing 100% completion or achievements

Do you not run out of room in your satchel quicker as you progress and then require crafting bigger satchels?
I have a question about stocking the camp with food ,
is this my responsibility, I don't like having to hunt for the camp all the time, I have just been using the ledger to restock the food but Im not sure if I can keep doing that.
