PancakeTransmission posted:Yes, offering loans to people that you know probably won't be able to repay is definitely the right thing to do. These desperate idiots deserve a beat down or death. Luckily, nobody gave out loans to anyone who asked without even checking their ability to repay in the 20th-21st century! i'm not saying it's a perfect world, but it's the one we live in. making money off of idiots who keep racking up debt they know they can't pay off has been happening for centuries. the entire point loan sharks exist is because no "reputable" places touch them, so you can strongarm them into even worse interest payments, thus bumping up your own profits. and at the end of the day, you're getting into an agreement with someone, you should drat well make sure you can pay that poo poo off, especially if they're known roughs.

mikeraskol posted:Do certain legendary animals only appear once you've hit certain story beats? I'm down near Rhodes (Ch. 3 or 4 maybe?) and my legendary animal map says there should be a wolf there. I've gone over the area the map says it should be a hundred times and I never get that "you are in a legendary animal's territory" message that pops up. Am I missing something obvious there or maybe just not finding it? No, they can show up immediately. The wolf is nowhere near Rhodes, though - the coyote is a little to the NW om the ravine by the run down mill, and the fox is a little to the SE in some woods. Wolf is up by the near Bear where the geysers are.

Qubee posted:i've been trying to figure out how to do this. as far as I know, you can't take two horses out of the stable at the same time, can you? I usually go hunting if I stumble across wild horses and break one in, I just ride it and get my main horse to follow me, then sell the horse for some cash when I go back to town. it usually goes up a bond level or two and that can add some decent value to reselling it. Your temporary horse is essentially a permanent horse. I believe it will only stop being your temporary horse if you bond with a new horse. So you can get a temporary horse to just follow you everywhere. It will stay in you camp through multiple missions. It will follow you around and respond to your whistles. The only thing I haven't tried is bringing two horses on a story mission. Basically you can ride around in the free world having two horses with you at all times if you choose.

I have like thousands of dollars right now and nothing to spend it on so I was hoping the game would just let me buy off some of these guys' debts for them. Like the only time I've felt "good" about collecting a debt was the stable boy you chase on horseback

I loving hate hunting rabbits, they always see you coming before you even know they're there and then they rush off all over the place. You try to get them on a horse and either the stupid small arrows narrowly miss their head and thus you ruin the pelt/waste small arrows or accidentally stomp on the shits ducking and weaving around you. I hope whatever design lead that just had to have different ammo types get different pelts breaks their hand by tripping and falling off 49 degree elevation on a small hill.

Actually, thinking about it, you can change your main horse in the game by removing the saddle from your current horse and putting it on the temporary horse, so you could probably get a 2nd horse from the stable by removing a horse, then removing the saddle, then going back into the stable on foot. I know I've left a temporary horse outside the stable while changing mains inside, so at the very least you could do a 3 horse shuffle.

A suggestion for people who want to craft split-tip bullets but don't want to stare at the screen for minutes on end (assuming you have a device that can do the companion app): Save Arthur's Journal for when you're doing that, and just read the journal in the companion app when you're making them. You can just hold down A/X (pending console) and he'll craft the bullets, so just do that with one hand and use the other one to read the journal. It's a good time to do it. Or, masturbate, I guess. Always a good time for that.

I mean there's the serial killer thing you can run into plus the most detailed gib effects in a game since maybe Soldier of Fortune 2. Game is not for kids either way, imo.

Use the varmint rifle for rabbits. Also collect your spent arrows. Occasionally I can't find them, but you can recollect almost all your arrows (except the dynamite ones I'm assuming).

I hunt birds so much but each one drops 1 feather, and sometimes they drop none. just let me buy fuckin game arrows from the trapper.

I think there's a pretty big plot hole in the game (massive Chapter 6 spoilers) Milton says that Micah is the rat, and they picked them up after the escape from Guarna. And that Molly didn't betray the gang at all. Yet the bank heist at the end of Chapter 4 was leaked to the Pinkertons. So who leaked it? Unless this is explained in the Epilogue.

How the gently caress are you supposed to get perfect corpses for small birds? You know, aside from them randomly flying into the side of my horse and killing themselves. You need small game arrows to get a perfect, right? The arrows can't be bought and are unrecoverable. Gotta kill several hundred other birds so you can make arrows to kill tiny birds (and snakes, which are also impossible to hit with a bow and arrow). I've never seen a small bird not in flight. They don't show up in cowboy vision either. When they are in flight I absolutely cannot hit them with a bow and arrow. Usually they get frightened as I ride by and shoot straight up into the sky, but the bow and arrow can't really shoot straight up. By the time you can get into a position that you can actually aim at them they are to far away to hit anyway. I saw and identified a cardinal once. Then by the time I had gotten my bow and small game arrows out it had vanished, even with a time slow effect when swapping guns. If I have the bow ready I will never see birds.

Qubee posted:also, robbing farmers for $20 will never not be amusing to me. I just like being a oval office, so maybe we both want two different things out of the game. I get it because open-world appeal is very much the rear end in a top hat simulator part, but the debt stuff feels really incongruous. Like, the game is about Arthur Morgan, plucky outlaw who helps his friends and will kill people out of necessity but who is otherwise not a psychopath. You can instead gently caress off and tie an entire town to railroad tracks and burn their horses to death, but this is either outright ignored by the plot a la acting evil in RDR1 or hand waved away as Arthur having random psychotic breaks running contrary to his normal personality. Unless the journal/etc changes when you go full evil? I dunno, it just feels weird and incongruous. I actually think GTAV's plot holds together a little better because they go out of their way to add in a character that is literally 'random wacky violence man' instead of just letting the player moonlight as one in between good-natured fishing trips and being too much of a gentleman to bang whores.

Zaa Boogie posted:Oh, hey, so I finally figured it out. When you study an animal is what makes it's main stomping grounds show up on the map. Ehh, it's more like the game accounts for acting like a psycho by adding missions and a character based around it, versus it being a thing you do when you get bored with the story. Admittedly this is a problem in a lot of Rockstar games like GTAIV, San Andreas and the first RDR (though someone floated the theory that Jack turned out bad and hes the one robbing and killing indiscriminately, which I kinda like). I guess it feels more pronounced this time because of how much work went into making RDR2 feel so authentic otherwise.
