    Still playing it solidly every night.

    Feel Im coming towards the end of the story so might hang back and do side stuff for a while.

    The Murfree brood ambushes are mental.

    I like Arthur as a character better than John in the first one!

    Still not finished it, but you know what - I'm really not enjoying it any more.

    The game is really too slow, I'm not even meaning the story progression, that I can handle, but literally everything you do is * slow. Loot a body, slow as *. Load between missions - more so at end of missions and later in the game it constantly forces you to the middle of no where and makes you trek for miles. Endless pointless trekking. Just done a mission where Rain falls (?) slow rides for ages, stopping multiple times to pick * flowers. Pain in the * *. The story telling is great, but it lacks any punch when it is constantly slowed down.

    Far too many filler missions as well.

    Then the controls, just getting stupid now. Constantly shifting what the controls are doing - aim weapon is depending on the mood of the game and if it wants you to talk to someone or not first. Jump on your horse, and you need to wait (slow again) for the animation and camera to catch up so that you can move off - otherwise the terrible control system gets confused about what direction you want to go.

    The horse has a mind of its own, sometimes it will try not to fall off a cliff - good, perfect - but then 4 seconds later it has no problem going head first in to a * tree.

    Closing in on the end of the game, but I honestly don't know if I will actually finish it. It's a * chore trying to get through this.

    @DamianWayneCSC I'm the exact same, I loved it at first but it just became a chore after a while. I'm not far from finishing it either but the thought of playing it again just isn't there.

    Just gave up for the night @Joe_Strummer
    Games frustrating. Actually fighting with the controls on a horse to steer it in the right direction rather than actually being in control.

    And you would think after they finally gave in and allowed people to run in their GTAO apartments, they wouldn't have forced you to walk so * slowly in camps.

    Genuinely don't think I will finish this game, a first for a R* game.

    Agree, do love a proper serious game but feel this one is overrated. Story brill, graphics brill, controls horrendous. So annoying at times.

    Started this but I'm being a bad boy and going to do the gold bar glitch, hehe.

    So I've unistalled it and removed the update and knocked it offline until I've got enough dough.

    Is the gold bar glitch just for single player?
    I tend to always find with these games (gta etc) that if you just play through the game, you get what you actually need as the game progresses. Never buy weapons or ammo, just always have enough and what you need at the time etc.

    I'm not sure about online, don't play that myself, but yes it's for story mode, as long as I don't install the update it should work.

    And yeah you're right I don't actually need it, but means I can do some different stuff and also notice that you can upgrade your base.

    Online mode is so * compared to GTA. Appreciate it’s only beta but hopefully they give it TLC and bring it up to the same standard!

    They were always going to be limited with what they could do, but just feels empty even compared to RDR 1's online.

    It's not too bad the online, but we have been spoiled.
    If they leave it as is, the game will be dead come summer.
    They will certainly need to update online a * load.

    There isnt enough good characters in this game,grand theft series has many memorable,shifty and funny charactersdialogue,laugh out loud moments.Arthur morgan,john marston,dutch are too nicey,nicey and have personalities of goldfish.There suposed to be outlaws.Micah was only decent character for me.
