What do you think of RDR2 so far? (for those who are playing it)

I have to say that it's ludicrous that after being betrayed/ambushed 4 times almost in a row when you complain about the results some of the gang just antagonize you and say you only complain instead of acting and supporting the band, even though almost all the money donated was yours and all the collective money (that you don't even see how much) had your participation in missions. Some points are very ill made.

Indeed, 95% of camp funds are contributed by Arthur as well as keeping food supplies well stocked by donating all food to the butcher in camp. Yet still they complain I'm never there and not pulling my weight. I've never seen anyone else do chores around camp. Bunch of lazy people just sitting around waiting for you to help them with some crazy idea.

I've more or less stopped looting bodies, there's no need. I have over 4000$ and nothing much to spend them on, got all weapons unlocked and fully upgraded.

My fast travel map seems to have disappeared, which is annoying, I'm on chapter 6 and all missions are really far apart and most require a long (and slow) ride to get to objectives as well. Seems like a needless hassle when mission icons are half a map apart.

Yeah, I guess there is no point. Dutch keeps going on about some big score while I also already have over $4000 and nothing to buy. Camp funds are over $1500 as well with nothing left to upgrade and everything well stocked. Although currently there is no more camp.

Here's a typical story mission in 3 minutes with the crappy game play. It's end chapter 4 or begin chapter 5, doesn't spoil much anyway.

Without looting it should flow better and you don't have to re-equip the gun all the time. It's most annoying when you press R3 expecting eagle eye and instead Arthur turns 180 because your gun is holstered again.

Currently Arthur seems intent on giving his money away and again I have no say in how much or whether I want to. No player agency at all :/ Trundle on, I will unlock Blackwater and the appendix beyond.

Don't forget that their bad ideas almost always fail and get near killing you in the process, with you having to save everyone =p

And about the big score, remember that if you have 4k in the bank then the group received 4k from your cut, plus half of everyone else cuts (which with all the missions that have a lot of money having 3 or 4 members, these funds are somewhere between 10-15k). There is one conversation in the game that someone says about winning 1k and retiring for life. So I'm pretty sure you have money even for 20 people to move far to the west and restart there.

But well, sometimes writers forget to cover the blind spots.
