      I already failed in life once (bad choices, unemployment, medical issues, depression, the works) so now I’m trying to embrace the 2nd chance, studying to become a lawyer (the unconventional kind, that tries to sneak in casual mondays, tuesdays, wednesdays and thursdays, to go with the token fridays, and prefers going home early to play computer games 8)).

      Tuesday-evening beers & games sounds like just the ticket to tackle a bout of weekday blues!

        This is funny and also one of the reasons why I think the game is an ill-conceived cashgrab.

          The installation deleted itself and now I have to download another 47 gb file at their 9 mb/s download speed. Meanwhile the game was supposed to start in 10 minutes. So far so good.  😛

            Now that everyone is trying to get online the installation time is beyond 5 hours… past the time that the BETA is supposed to last. What a joke. Fuck this game. I am not going to even waste my time.

              One of the most entertaining moments I've had with a video game in a long time was going to the local saloon in Valentine to get drunk with Lenny in Red Dead Redemption 2.  This game has so many layers to it, truly a great game and not just hype.

                  Yeah I just bought some hair pomade the last time I was at the general store.  One thing to keep in mind that I forgot about this game is that your horse isn't invincible like in every other game I've played that involves a horse.  They are mortal like real horses are.

                  I was enjoying a stroll through the beautiful countryside en route to collect a debt for the gang…just trotting along on my horse, killed and robbed 5 different people on stagecoaches en route....killed a dear, skinned it, stowed on the back of my horse...trotting along and suddenly took a nasty fall down the side of a cliff.  Deer carcass goes flying off the back of my horse in the fall and we both manage to land on this ledge on the side of the cliff.  My horse got so injured in the fall that it couldn't get up and was laying there making dying horse noises and writhing in pain.  It then gives you the option to kill your horse or revive it with some magical horse tonic.....of which I had none in my satchel of course.  So I had to kill my own horse and put him out of his misery...which left me stranded on the side of a cliff with a dead horse and no deer meat to bring back to camp.

                  Guess that's my video game karma for killing and robbing 5 people just minutes before.

                    You can leave it, pop into a general store, buy horse revival pills and go back and revive your horse…

                      Aint nobody got time for that…

                      But seriously I didn't think of that, I guess I didn't know he would still be there.  Thanks for the tip.  Now I've just realized I killed my horse for no reason and just when we were bonding.  I even gave him a cute name.  I should go back and give him a proper burial.

                        I think RDR2 is probably my favorite game ever. The writing is so amazing I almost can't believe it. I'm on Chapter 6 and Arthur is certainly my favorite protagonist ever. He's better than Leon and Snake.

                          We're not talking about a game anymore, are we?

                          Think it, be it.

                              The area around Van Hoorn is legit WEIRD… Some hillbillies pushed a burning cart on the road as I passed, causing my horse to panic, throw me off, whilst some guys were slowly approaching me holding cleavers (I think), whilst screaming "Here piggie piggie!"...  😶

                              I also saved a lady whose husband was EATEN by cannibals in the same area...

                              Clutching onto my Bolt Action Rifle packed with Express ammunition riding there... Whistling nervously...

                                  I had a similar experience in the swamps. Came across a guy hanging from a tree so I got off to have a look/loot. Turned back to my horse and a bunch of creepy hillbillies coming out of the trees with knives.

                                          Might wanna reconsider which stones you're throwing there, buddy.  Some of those desert towns get pretty weird…
