2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good.

Today's game is some more Red Dead online, me and my friend setup a private lobby, which is awesome because it lets us play without Hackers (thanks to the individual that suggested this, it's really handy). It's also led me to the conclusion that all my bugs with this game are caused by hackers. The fish are all back, i'm not being disconnected every 30 minutes, and my Horse isn't randomly blowing up.

I went fishing and caught this huge ass Gar that was 16 lbs. I couldn't figure out what to do with it so i just carried it around for a bit until i swapped it for a gator pelt. I had wanted to cook it though. Sorry fish.

While i was looking at what i could do with my fish, my friend rode to catch up to me. He ended up tripping on a log though hidden in the snow. That got me thinking about how impressive this game is, that even a log hidden by snow can trip your horse. It's just a crazy level of depth to appreciate.

Me and my friend also went Gator Hunting to get supplies for our Trader. They're surprisingly easy to hunt since they lay there.

We also got attacked by a Panther of all things. I had to put it down because it was right by our camp and attacking us, but i fucked up the shot and it bled out. Man did that make me sad. I have an unreasonably large soft spot for felines.

We stole a train to end off our day and just drove around the map until one of the waterfalls. I ended up lassoing a police officer who shot at me though and dragging him behind the train. I tried to pull him up to at least make the death painless... but wasn't able too. So this random officer ended up being meat crayoned into the ground.

To end off we stopped at this waterfall which is gorgeous, before we got off to go play Halo 2 (we're working on a normal playthrough right now). I think it's a lovely and far brighter place to leave off the game.

I've been playing the single player for the first time, the past month. it sure is a vibe!

Installed a whole slew of mods, too... I like adding mods to every game I play.

you made everyone naked... didn't you

There're surprisingly few nudity mods for this game... Or so they tell me. 😇
