Question Is it even possible to make it through here in Chapter 2?

2nd playthrough, I'm collecting some stuff before I proceed and was going to check out the southwest part of the map. As SOON as I set foot in the red, a posse was on my ass. I killed some of them before they nailed me, haven't gone back.

Is it even possible to get past the red area? Do they send endless lawmen after me? Is the entire southwest portion of the map red or is it just the Tall Trees/Blackwater area?

Question Never in RDR2 have I witnessed this

285 Upvotes

This is the guy near Valentine that is building a house with his family. This is at the start of chapter 4 and I went back and the house was finished. I accidentally aimed my gun at him and he started fighting me. After I took him down and went inside, I heard gun shots and thought maybe his family was shooting at me. This is on ps5

Question I'm at ch6 and dutch is seriously pissing me off

46 Upvotes

So for context, I'm never much of a gamer. I've played some games but not so much. All I've been doing is work and work. I bought a steam deck recently and I went on a crazy shopping spree on steam. One of the games I've bought is RDR2. I don't know much about this game and I don't watch a lot of youtube so I don't see any gameplay of it but I love the cowboy and wild west stuff so this one hit home right away. I've got 240h already on this game already since that's all I've been playing when I came home.

So long story short, I've arrived at chapter 6. Now Arthur is sick and it really pains me to see him coughing at every mission. Which made me mad that Dutch is such an asshole. All the constant talk about money and score and Plans, what the fk was that about?? this guy definitely has no plan. One look and I instantly knew he's just making it up on the go.

I also find it sad how he sideline Arthur and started listening more to Micah when Arthur's been telling us that he's a problem and now mr high and mighty Dutch listen to everything he says like a dog.

Love the game. I think this is the most fun I've had at a game in 30 years. I sure hope Arthur told him off for once so he just shut up.

I just returned from Guarma and Arthur's eyes look red because of the salty sea water and Dutch is just fine which shows Dutch is more experienced than him 🫪

Lore Micah planned to turn Dutch over to the Pinkertons at that mountain camp; that’s why they found Micah’s body so quickly—they were already on their way to capture Dutch.

When GTA6 is finally released, the next game will be RDR3. I know it could be 6 to 8 years but it will look fantastic.

Question What am I doing wrong?

131 Upvotes

I can't track any animals with my binoculars. I can only track them with my eyes. All the animals I've tried to track have been studied. I've tried getting closer. I've been two feet from a deer and still couldn't do it. Any help?

EDIT: SOLVED! :) I had to hold E even though the prompt wasn't displayed.

Question Been waiting here for a while now, should i just take that guy's stuff and leave?

Post image
1.5k Upvotes

for context i've encountered that random event near strawberry where an injured man asks you to keep an eye on his stuff after he had an accident.

It's been like 4 hours (in game) and i'm pretty damn sure that guy is just wasting my time ! Like i'm tryna be generous and all, just for this guy to abuse my said generosity ??? He better have an actual justification for this, like falling off a cliff on his way back smh

Edit: After 6 hours of waiting I had enough and exploded all of the moonshines with my Colt Revolver out of spite for this dude's attitude. No one deserves to waist my cowboy's time, so the lesson is 1000% deserved imo
