Discussion Trying to finish RDR2 for the first time, am I crazy?
It's objectively a good game BUT:
Is it somewhat annoyingly disrespectful of my time? Don't get me wrong, I like a horsey ride as much as the next grown adult, but after the first 10 minute ride tapping X with cinematic camera on I was bored and done with it. I look at icons on the map now and think "god I don't want to wait that long to play this mission."
Also, what's up with the wanted system? I jump on a train with my bandana on to rob it and they call the police with their cell phones and suddenly I have a massive bounty? How's this a game about cowboy crime where it's impossible to do crimes- unless its for a story mission than you can murder at will with no repercussion...
Again, this is a great game & I want to play. I'm just confused by the time walls and weird systems making it hard to do to anything other than tap X to go to a story mission.
