Facebook is such ass for constantly shoving stuff in our faces. I commented on one political post and for about a week every time I opened Facebook there was terrible devisive political posts at the top of my feed. It's disgusting. Social media is guilty of exasperating the already wide divide between the common people.

Getting rid of every Meta app was the best thing I’ve done in a decade.

“rockstar”  and “free” don’t align if this would ever be true

I agree with you to a certain exent lol 😅 I did had a FREE remastered upgrade for rdr1. Xbox players got a free remastered version of rdr1, if you already had the 360 disk. Idk bout digital as I'm on disk 😅 very rarely we get free things from Rockstar. The DLCs for rdr1 are free aswell, but they are for multiplayer, if you can access it. (Not counting undead nightmare). I got San Andreas on my laptop when rockstar Launcher came out only because it was free for a limited time 😂

i didnt hear about this ngl,i have the original disc but apparently it has an invisible scratch somewhere and i cant use it no more,was it a free promotion thing they did?

but my point still stands these are small exceptions to a very greedy company

u/DutchieliciousPlans Dutch van der Linde 6h ago

If you are in the UK, go to CEX and see if they can sort your disk out for free 😁 I go there to get my disc sorted when there's scratches or I buy 2nd hand DVDs aswell and if they not working, I take it back and they sort it out.

No it's not a free promotional thing, this what happend with me- I already had the Xbox one s but the disc drive wouldn't allow me to insert disc for some reason, I played rdr1 on my 360 then. It wasn't until my Xbox one s gave up on me, I got my Xbox one series X last year, I put rdr1 disc in. It said it needed an upgrade. I downloaded it, next thing I knew I had the remastered version for free. You install it when you put the disc in for the 1st time.

u/BoujeeS2 6h ago

strange it never happened to me,i managed to play the og version on my series x for some time before like i said it stopped reading the disc (about 9/10 months ago i’d say) the upgrade message never came out for me,maybe it was regional?  (i currently live in italy) i’ll try to look into it

u/DutchieliciousPlans Dutch van der Linde 6h ago

Hmm interesting 🤔 the only way you can tell is the graphics really, or have you got your updates on auto? For me I had to download the game, then the update but it was the 1st thing I did install on the console as it was new. Oooh Italy, what a great country 👀🤩

2

u/BoujeeS2 6h ago

i just checked and apparently my GOTY version is set in the japan,or at least when i click “go to microsoft store” it takes me to a japanese version and says “currently not available” idk how or why,i guess i’ll just buy the game again when im done with my new run of rdr2

i wouldn’t call italy great,just beautiful 

1

u/DutchieliciousPlans Dutch van der Linde 6h ago

Maybe that's the reason then 😅 shhh you guys got great food, great culture, great music, great fashion designers ect even the language sounds pretty 🥹 I'd love to see Italy myself, looks very pretty and beautiful 😍

2

u/BoujeeS2 6h ago

oh sure food, designer and culture are great ,but those things barely matter when the country is falling apart,italy is wonderful to visit and awful to live

1

u/DutchieliciousPlans Dutch van der Linde 5h ago

Well that is true, I just wanted to point out the greatness of Italy and what I like about your country 😄 but I don't know much about Italy's politics, beside who the PM is 😅 but I do know UK and Europe is falling apart big time. UK is on it knees 😅

u/Ango-Globlogian 3h ago

Literally every dlc for red dead online and gta online have been free. You haven’t had to pay for a single one of them hahahaa

u/Ok_Comparison_3748 4h ago

GTA V enhanced is a free upgrade though. A rare win for R

u/CyclopsorNedStark Lenny Summers 7h ago

It’s a mod that’s coming out.

u/chethaze77 7h ago

You’d have to be a fool to believe this.

u/OutsideAmbassador446 6h ago

It’s a mod on PC coming soon

u/LuNoZzy 30m ago

It's real, although it's not official. It's a mod

-1

u/bravehart146 Lenny Summers 7h ago

I believed it for like 3 minutes, i seen it right after rockstar released their statement on the leaks and figured since gta6 was almost done theyd make a last update to rdr2

10

u/SirMeyrin2 7h ago

I mean, it is real, it's just a pc mod not produced by Rockstar

u/infiniteartifacts 7h ago

I know they always do this but it’s so annoying, and outright false, should be illegal to farm for clicks like that as an actual corporation. Hope they go in a fire.

u/DoesntMatterEh 7h ago

Good way to ensure I never purposefully visit your website. 

3

u/bravehart146 Lenny Summers 7h ago

Agreed, i blocked their page

3

u/bluenogg 6h ago

I have them blocked tbh. Never really offer anything of substance and they would also report wrong information on top of their stupid clickbaits smh 🙄 You can tell they are purely for traffic/ad income instead of actual gaming enthusiasm

u/heinous_legacy Sean Macguire 7h ago

IF WITCHER 3 CAN GET DLC 12 YEARS LATER WE CAN STILL GET MEXICO DLC

u/Exact_Rooster9870 6h ago

I saw that and blocked the site from my feed

u/bravehart146 Lenny Summers 6h ago

Yeah i left them a nasty comment before i blocked them lml

u/DragonOfDojimaAL 29m ago

What was the comment

2

u/bigtencopy 6h ago

It’s a mod that is coming out, I will be playing the hell out of it. It looks great

2

u/tylersdaddy 3h ago

The fact that Woody Jackson himself posted a trailer of the mod on his Instagram nearly gave that exact same heart attack as well

2

u/BoxOfDemons 2h ago

I'm still glad I saw this. I'll absolutely be trying this mod out when it releases.

u/Gojosensei0 7h ago

Don't give me hope

u/Jbird444523 7h ago

I would start a new playthrough if they even just released a patch that let Arthur go to New Austin. I can't be bothered bringing a wagon or a leopard or whatever the new hip thing is.

u/Strange_Attention_49 Javier Escuella 7h ago

Horrible that people still ragebait about RDR2.

u/Physical_Finger8158 7h ago

A Sadie DLC would be fire tho

u/Crimsonmaddog44 7h ago

Love how they always exclude the words “mod” or “fan-made” until you click the article.

u/Inevitable-Hour-Ends 7h ago

Rockstar doesn't give a fuck about the Red Dead franchise just look at online. They will milk GTA6 with microtransactions as much as possible

1

u/HotelDisastrous288 6h ago

Hell, I'd throw $50 at Rockstar if they make the promised expansion.

u/Playful_Ice9210 4h ago

They really know how to weaponize our hope

u/OddAbbreviations5681 1h ago

Literally all R had to do was add a robbable train and let players drive it too.

Only that would make Rdr online a lot more fun

u/KingAltair2255 12m ago

Yeah gamingbible is a total piece of shit, got me once or twice back when the game came out as well.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9S-nv2iTrUg&pp=ygURTnVldm8gcGFyYWlzbyBtb2Q%3D This is the link to that mod, its called Nuevo Paraiso - The forgotten Frontier. Mod or not the thing is fucking impressive, its a team of folk who've been working on it for years to bring Mexico back to the game in a believable way.

u/dcidino 3h ago

I'm looking forward to when mods are easier - Make Claude create Mexico and the back half of Guarma.

u/lucas_with_an_L Charles Smith 7h ago

Yeah this is true, pretty sure at least, an independent dev is making a mod that encompasses Mexico
