I continued working my way through Red Dead Redemption 2 today. I did the Bank Heist in Valentine and did a stage coach robbery camp activity too.

The game looks really gorgeous now that i don't have to worry about FSR muddling everything up.

One example is the mentioned robbery mission. The whole quest had raindrop falling from the roof that i just couldn't see before. Not to mention the way the bricks and stuff were wet from it.

I've done this robbery mission so many times now (in all honesty it's probably about 4 though) that it feels like second nature. Usually i just blow the safes open. But this time i decided to pick them all. I made off with $3000.

While on my way back from this mission, i had to stop to do the Second part of the Downes quest. I stopped at their farm, and before talking to them i went and played with their animals. They had this adorable dog chilling in the back by the goats.

There's nothing wrong with having different preferences. It doesn't have to be because someone has a worse or better attention span.

I personally do think the number of enemies that had to be killed should have been decreased. For me, it was mostly because it became comical sometimes that more guys kept coming out of the woodwork. After the fiftieth O'Driscoll you kill, you start to wonder if it's a gang or a country's military.

I'm sorry. The attention span comment wasn't directed at you personally, it was reflecting on your point that people would find it too slow and boring with fewer kills. It wasn't meant as a jab at all.

I think it sounds like we're mostly in agreement. And yeah, the O'Driscolls spawning in and popping up like whack-a-moles is another great example!
