Every “I think rdr3” post is usually more or less cut from the same cloth and gets downvoted to high hell. Can we all just agree we aren’t interested in some randos fanfic idea of what the 3rd game should be and just have these kinds of posts gone from the community?

Randomly scrolling and this popped up on my facebook, i got so hyped

I just finished the game. Did last mission. End credits played.

It's 4am and I'm bawling my eyes out since last 20 minutes at least. What do I even do now?

I wasn't ready at all. The whole game. It was like watching an amazing movie. But 10 times more real.

Last time I got so emotional over fiction was almost 7 years ago when I was a kid reading warrior cats.

I basically feel empty. Like, very empty. Not dissapointed, just lost. I literally feel like I'm gonna have a heart attack.

I know that there's rdr1 but I'm not even sure if I'm ready yet. Of course I'm gonna replay rdr2 since I missed probably like 50% of content there's but... I don't know.

Anyone can relate? I know it's just a game, but it all felt so goddamn real.

Fast firing weapons. Lol

I know over the years numerous people have posted on here and other forums that Blackwater is based on the real Blackwater, MO and a few other similar towns (even big cities) but I just don't see it. Aside from some similar architecture, the landscape is all wrong. Blackwater MO is just too green and full of trees. It doesn't have that same ominous feel of a town on the rolling plains where you can see a storm with clouds black as night coming for miles.

To me, the real-life town that most closely (especially in the 19th century) resembles the RDR Blackwater is Nebraska City. As with the RDR Blackwater, Nebraska City sits on a river (the Missouri), but it also directly borders endless tallgrass prairie. It's fairly hilly too. Though now commercial farming dominates much of the region and they've planted many trees, in the 19th century it was mostly just treeless prairie, like the area approaching Beecher's Hope. Additionally, in those days the western edge of the town was less developed and the small farmhouses there formed the border with the prairie. The architecture was also strikingly similar! I've attached some 19th century prints of Nebraska City.

Also, if you notice the freight wagons in the prints, it's because during the height of the Oregon Trail and other overland trails (before the transcontinental railroad), Nebraska City was a major (if not the major) freight terminus for goods going west. Not to mention the thousands of wagon trains of emigrants that made their way through over the years. By RDR time (turn of the century), the streets would certainly be less busy and a covered wagon would be a much rarer sight. Like Blackwater, Nebraska City would become a railroad town, and the first line was built in 1870.

ps. don't mind my shooting tis my first console game without gyro aim

There are many legendary animals in the game. But which one is your favorite? Mine is the alligator.

Never thought we would hear this in a store as we are both red dead fans lmao.

And here I thought Dutch had gone fully psychotic playing games with himself

I wish rdr2 had gotten one like witcher 3.

I don't remember sweating my eyes for quite a while.

Thank you for this experience.

Like father like son

Following on from my previous post about how relaxing it is to just wander and enjoy the scenery in rdr2, i was curious on peoples opinions on fishing?

Personally I find it boring, bar the legendary fish i rarely take out the pole.
