    The character feels a bit trundly when moving about so I've changed to first person on foot and third person on horse like with GTAV, but the snap between first and third when you go in and out of cover is bizarrely clunky whereas they had it right before.

    Literally just started and I’ve broken it already. Bloke jumps on me in the barn so I deck him, but apparently going in on the cunt wasn’t what I’m supposed to do. Now he’s dead and I can’t get out of the barn. The horse is neighing away at all I want to do is shoot it. I can’t.

    Had to start over which was a bit shit, but not much to redo. Managed to not beat him to death this time. Well, until I got the info I needed out of him.

    What, it lets you kill a character but it'll leave you stuck if you do?

    There must be a way out of that surely, seems a bit of an oversight that early doors.

    Well, you're meant to give him a beating, then interrogate him for information. But by the time the NPC had finished explaining that we needed him alive, I'd already beaten him to death. That left me stuck in the barn, block by an invisible force at the door, with the horse neighing constantly. Turns out you need the information he gives you to continue the story.

    I was perhaps being a retard, but I couldn't see any other way out of it.

    Tracked the bear, killed the bear, skinned the bear.

    Went to buy a train ticket to Saint Denis so I could visit the Trapper. You can’t buy tickets holding the bear skin. Dropped it and bought the tickets. Cut-scene showing my journey on the train. Go back and the bear skin is gone, obviously. Fuck sake.

    Named my new horse a don name, Napoleon, then realised it was a fucking female.

    I killed it with a knife, after only one shot to the head area with a shotgun. Inches away from death, but managed to kill the thing.

    It’s a bit of a slow starter, but once you get past the initial ‘setting the story in motion’ sequence and the game opens up, it’s more than enjoyable.

    It took a few hours to get into, but I put about four hours into it last night and barely got anything done - there is so much to do it’s unreal. The world is massive as well and I’ve barely uncovered a quarter of the map yet.

    I still don't understand poker, but my tactic from the first game of just bet massive and everyone folds seems to carry across.

    I've only just come down off the mountain but I'm loving this so far. My main takeaway from the prologue is that I'm fascinated by how good the snow looks! I was just just tramping around in it back and forth to look at the nice tracks it left on a couple of occasions.

    It was a slow start but I think it set the mood really well. You kind of want to slow down to take the world in anyway. The cast of characters in the gang feel really well fleshed out (obviously we've met a few of them before) and the writing is really good. The soundtrack is absolutely fantastic so far, too.

    I created this account for one reason: The controls in RDR2 are real bad, but with tweaking you can make them fine. I am starting to love this game, but the laborious control scheme was seriously getting in the way. These tweaks did a lot for me to get rid of that frustration.


    Go into the control settings:



    • Go to 'third person controls'
    • Change control scheme to 'Standard FPS'. This moves sprint from X to the left control stick. Ironically 'Standard FPS' is what makes moving in third person easier.
    • Now go to 'Accessibility', go to 'Running Mode' and change it to 'Toggle to Run'. No more holding down a button to run.
    • Now, instead of holding X to jog and mashing it to sprint, you click the stick once to jog, and click the stick twice to sprint. No more mashing a button to sprint. Let off the stick a little and you go back to walking. After 17 years of having to master 'the claw' in Rockstar games I can finally not have to do it.


    Some other important recommendations for ideal controls:



    • Turn 'Aim/Look Dead Zone' all the way down. This makes the joysticks more responsive.
    • Turn 'Aim/Look Acceleration' down two notches from the top. (This is extremely important, and helps with the camera feeling like it's moving through molasses)
    • Crank 'Aim Sensitivity' and 'Look Sensitivity' very high, always make sure 'Look Sensitivity' is two or so notches below 'Aim Sensitivity'
    • As for 'Aim Assist', I like to keep it one notch above 0. This one kinda depends on you.
    • Use these same controls for the first person view, including the 'Standard FPS' control scheme. Cranking up the acceleration is key to making this mode feel 100% more intuitive.


    I also recommend going into first person when looting a house. Your default walking speed in first person is faster, and it makes aiming for specific items much less of a slog. It's also weirdly atmospheric and kind of awesome. First person before tweaks felt like a throwaway mode, but i'm kind of enjoying it now.


    These settings made general movement through the world so much less sluggish and more responsive. I didn't feel like I was constantly fighting with the controls to have fun in the world.

    I can't wrap my head around why Rockstar made the decision to leave the controls as they were. Figuring out how to tweak the sprint settings felt like finding an easter egg the game was hiding from me. I don't get the feeling Rockstar would ever patch in tweaked movement controls like what happened with The Witcher 3, but I hope they do.

    Further in you can do home robbery missions. They'll get you some cash. Also bank robbery missions that get you a few thousands.

    I got the train to Saint Denis out of curiosity but I think I'm still on chapter 2, the whole thing is moving at a glacial pace which I love as it feels like you're inhabiting an actual world when you play, perfect for just dipping in and out for half an hour at a time.


    @phonics stuck with third person in the end, cheers for that though

    I have overcome and control problems pretty quickly. The game is indeed a masterpiece. I love it. The last few evenings I’ve played and not done a single story mission. Just busy being a cowboy.

    It’ll come to PC eventually @Pepe but not for a while.

    Probably just like GTA V. Took what, five years? By the time it came out I was no longer interested.

    From what I read of this is does look pretty cool.

    Is there loads of grinding shit to do outside of the main missions? If so, I'm in.

    What are the games in the saloons? Please say that Liars Dice is there.

    Finished Spider-Man last night so I'll be getting on this in a few days.

    I was going to order the digital special edition but the map is making me side towards physical though.

    Some motherfucker tried to steal my horse (Smokey ) and rode away. In a true show of dedication, rather than let Smokey be stolen I...err...shot her in the head, whereby she collapsed and the would-be thief fled. I revived my trusty steed and proceeded to hunt down the scoundrel, hogtie him and then drown him in a river.

    Crime is bad, m'kay (unless I am doing it to buy fancy hats).

    There's no Liar's Dice, which is a bit shit. There's only Poker, Blackjack, Dominoes and the knife one.
