how? was that when they took jack and they said john was the father?
I am being overly picky, not really serious. But stating this is a prequel (I didn’t play RDR and was unaware that this was a prequel) and Jack is a major character in that game, makes it clear that Jack survives his story arc at the end of chapter 3 / beginning of chapter 4.

Again, more jabbing your comment than offering a legit gripe.

I just stumbled on a discussion of this point. They say that moose spawn around Lake Isabella (south of the white Arabian). I have not gone there yet to confirm. I may try this week sometime. I want big cats right now. I need the panther to get all the satchels.


I haven't spent the time to really figure out hunting yet. I think I have the legendary beaver and bear and a couple others, but I'll be damned if I ever get a good pelt.

I spent the last three (game days) fishing.


I have 9 of 13 legendary fish.


I would just like to say that the Smallmouth is legendary af.

Same. I just kind of light animals up when riding around on my horse.

Get the legendary Buck. It will improve all your pelts. Also, don’t waste your time with an animal if it isn’t 3 stars. Finally, basically only hunt with the varmint rifle and the schofield rifle (with crossed ammo).

Some of those legendary fish are no joke. Like 15 minutes of reeling and stopping so it doesn't break the line.

I'd toss in the bow as well. Larger animals the bow with poison arrows and then small game arrows for varmits and birds. I get a clean kill with those no matter what. Sometimes with other animals, you still need to use a specific type of gun but so far, the bow works every time

The bow takes too long to load. Hunting big cats is risky business, and you need that extra split second you get with the schofield.

I just dead eye them. Haven't had any problems with it.

There is some crazy shit in this game..kinda surprised it doesn't have bigfoot tbh. I swear I read somewhere that there is UFOs en shit.

Yesterday I stumbled upon a Pagan Ritual site.

and then there's the crazy gunsmith kidnapper dude

So to really appreciate this game is it better to do all the missions in white before you do the yellow main missions? I figured running around randomly would be pointless because the events are randomly spawned.

So I can go somewhere and it would trigger an event?

Beats me, bruh...I'm a novice gamer. I think the yellow main missions are the only thing that really turns the chapters en sech.

I ripped thru the main story too quickly(at Chapter 6, currently) and have since gone back and am doing the side missions and avoiding the yellow.

I think the main story outcome is fairly similar no matter what you do tho.

yeah that's pretty much what I am doing I was doing nothing but Yellow missions but I see I am going through this game to fast I think I am at chapter 6 too but now I am doing all the side quests and trying to get the most out of the game

When do8ng open-world games, I think it is generally a good idea to do all “optional” quests before you do “story quests”. Story quests tend to lead you spots in the game where big changes happen, and may prevent you from comp,eating some optional quests.

If you want to get the whole feel for this game, I think you should do all whites before you touch any yellows.

I know with Witcher 3 it seemed specifically designed that way, in that you couldn't beat the higher levels without completing lower sidequests

Perhaps you might want to do some more exploring...

Spolier-Free Mission List (including missable missions) : reddeadredemption

Here's the list I've linked to before. I believe these are actually listed in order for the best times to do them because some of the side missions are only triggered once you've completed certain story missions to advance chapters. Also, it's basically necessary to be talking to everyone, especially the people in your camp, because those conversations (including just listening in on others' convos) can trigger missable side quests. The game is that detailed. It's actually a little bit frustrating that its that detailed because I ended up missing out on a couple of camp quests early on because I didn't realize they had to be triggered a certain way within a time frame.
