Fuck sake.
I spent hours playing Liar's Dice in the last one, it was fucking amazing.

Found myself at a saloon playing poker and then noticed it was getting late and thought I should be getting back to camp for a good few hours' sleep. What is this game doing to me
Restarted yesterday to avoid the chapter two camp bug and am glad I did. A pain losing so many hours of play but nice to get a full camp. Here’s what you do to avoid it for anyone just getting it.
1.Save at start of chapter 2.
2.Talk with John,Abi,Jack and sadie.
3.Sleep until night to make sure they are still there
4.Do any mission EXCEPT UNCLE mission.
5.Go back and see if they are still there.
6.Enjoy the game.
Fuck a restart for the sake of a couple side missions.
I was only on Chapter Two anyways so I didn’t mind. I’ll spend a few nights exploring and should be set.
Is there much camp improvement micro management? I love that shit.
A little. It's mainly just earn enough cash to pay for upgrades, you don't really do much. There's a few chores and some strategy around the sequencing, but it's not exactly your kind of thing.
It's a fun game but there isn't the kind of min/max grind stuff. It's a cohesive world with less of the zany R* stuff (but some). Overall it's an astonishing piece of work, so far.
I'm off next week, so I'll be on it then.

Nice one. Read my post about how to start chapter 2 to avoid a bug
Fuck the O'Driscolls.
I spent way too much time getting the White Arabian horse but it really is a thing of beauty. If you don’t have it go and get it (it’s also the best horse in the game supposedly, or at least in the early game).
There's some proper grim moments in this. In RhodesToggle Spoiler
Also don't forget that in case you fail the mission from UNCLE, you HAVE to choose "restart mission" instead of "restart from checkpoint". Doing the latter (also) causes the bug. I had to restart because when I did the chase I collided with a farmer and fell of my horse.
I was just after this mission, so I restarted the game, did the above and the 4 are in my camp now.
Literally no idea how you lot are managing to fuck the game up so badly so early. I've just played normally and none of them went missing and they all gave me side missions. Even if they hadn't have been, I would never have noticed.
Another grim oneToggle Spoiler
He really didn't want to give me a lift.
All went tits up from there as I decided to chase him after a while until he got on a horse. I happened to bump into a man and killed him in a fight in the middle of town so the law was after me. Robbed a cart as my horse was a little far away and I ended up going over a cliff killing myself :\
$30 bounty

I also restarted, as I was having the same issue as Mike. I don't care though. I'm totally happily to play through what I've covered so far (probably about two thirds of Chapter 2) again. It's that good.
My favourite activity in the new, fully manned camp is to just walk around hitting the "antagonise" button at folk who have pissed me off in some way. I did it to John last night, which resulted in this absolute classic of an exchange:
Arthur (Sarcastically): "Here he is! Father of the year!"
John: "What is your problem, Morgan?"
Arthur: "Why don't you spend some time with the boy? Do something with him! Teach him to swim. Oh wait.....I forgot, YOU CAN'T!"
Lads, I present to you the best way to get away from the bounty hunters:
Horse died (my second one) though which is a bit shit.
I then killed a guy and stole his horse but ran into a bride that the O'Driscolls were protecting and only had a shitty .22 rifle so they minced me.
finished chapter 6 last night.
Finished the game now. Now time for 100% completion.
Just got to the bear and almost shat myself.
Finally cleared my $300 bounty (I would have cleared it earlier but some dickheads killed me right after leaving camp, stole some of my money and all the fucking pelts I had saved up) and got the DLC horse which shits on the base one.
The DLC horse is still pretty terrible. The White Arabian is the only horse worth bothering with.
Yeah I know:

I'll hunt the Arabian tomorrow.
A mate text me “go here” with no extra info, so I did :-/
Tried to get the white arabian. Spooked so it ran away. Can't find and the damn thing won't respawn.
Also tried to hun the Legendary Buck but it says it's too much activity in the area. So I'm suppose to kill all the animals there?
It will respawn after a couple of days. Just leave the area and then camp for a few days. It always spawns in the same place.
I got that White Arabian - it's pretty rapid but there's definitely a step back from the Pre-Order Beast as I'd got it fully trained up.
Next job is to start getting serious about hunting in order to start unlocking some of the things via the Trapper. I've not touched the story in about four days
Is some of this stuff as grindy as you're making it sound? Or is it a "Its grind that's fun to me so I'm giving no shits"?
Or not at all?
Wouldn't say there's much grind to it at all - the hunting things are fun and the challenges are pretty entertaining. Hunting for example is: skin three different animals but you have to kill them perfectly (using the right weapons and they have to be the right kind of variant). They're tough to track down and there's some pressure when going for the kill.
If they didn't make you feel like you were immersed in the world a lot of it would feel like mindless busywork, instead I'm sucked in so much I plan a day of fishing and then keep an eye on the time to make sure I get to bed at a decent hour.
Getting this for Christmas. If my holidays get approved at work I'll be off 25th-1st, so hopefully I can get some serious playtime done.
The key is getting the missus to watch me play it and get her interested in the storyline, like when she asked "are you gonna play Fallout tonight? I wanna know what happens to Shaun."
I'm a twit
Might be a bit open world, though the random encounters might keep her interested.
Gambler 8 took me 2 hours and 21 minutes of aimlessly clicking x. So much fun.
Thinking about starting this over as I'm not very far but my "good/evil" bar is basically 25% of the way toward evil from center.
At first when I first went into town some guy lost his horses and I brought them back to him. The womens told me how nice I was and that made me feel uneasy like they were talking shit because I helped another human.
Then, when i was in town, I accidentally bumped into somebody and it somehow triggered something and people started shooting at me.
Ever since I've basically been going around robbing and shooting anyone who doesn't greet me in a nice way.
I feel like I have a huge bounty everywhere I go and think I've fucked it.
You can remove bounties easily. Spend all your money or donate it to the camp then cause trouble in the area and surrender to the police. You’ll go to jail for a night but as you have no money they can’t take it. Bounty gets removed anyway.
To be fair, I paid mine off too before I discovered it.
Gambler 10 was a piece of piss compared to 8 and 9.
9 would be near on impossible if not for the fact quitting a game by standing up from the table doesn’t end your win streak.
Fell off my horse and lost the legendary bear pelt
My beloved horse, Sadio Mane, just ran into a train and died in cinematic mode as I did the dishes. I'm heartbroken. He was a good boy, Arthur was always telling him.
