There's a shack with a copy of a "Prestigious Codex Gazette". Easter egg?

Like I said, Free Aim is unplayable. I don't remember playing a game with such awful sensitivity and responsiveness.
Free-Aim is shitty but not unplayable, try messing with deadzones and acceleration in the settings.

Biggest issues are unreasonably jerky enemy movement and missions where you are riding shotgun on stagecoaches and cannot move to help with aiming, going through chewing tobacco and cigarettes like an addict solves those issues though.
Better yet just play with autoaim on and try to enjoy the spectacle of it all, combat is the weakest aspect of this game and you shouldn't worry about it much, you'll have plenty more to be frustrated with as you progress.

Never mind, I just sold it on Facebook for 43 dollars. I've never gotten rid of a console game so fast, but the aiming is just abysmal, and default walking in video game gunfights is lame. May try it again when it's discounted on PC. At least then I'll be able to play without Soft Lock and can access the run button more easily without leaving the other buttons.

Discovered a really odd thing, for a Rockstar game that is. In the north there is an Indian camp, and the game absolutely forbids you from shooting the poor Indians. If you ride into the camp text comes up that says guns can't be used or something like that, and you move like you are stuck in molasses. I'm guessing the area is for a mission later on, but it's still lame that Rockstar restricts the murdering of Indians. Rockstar have never been scared of controversies, but shooting Indians is going too far apparently.

I liked the prior 3D Zeldas (Haven't played Skyward Sword), but it's nice to play one that isn't so linear for once.

There he comes, triggered on both "Edgy" and "NPC" at the same time.

And I didn't even have to mention the word "incel" :lol:

When he didn't respond in 30 sec. I knew he is off to his 4chan folder collecting memes. Because that's the limit of his ability to think for himself. Always been a retard, haven't you?

So, here I am riding with a pristine gator skin, a pristine turtle and a pristine rabbit...

I heard about some 'gator saddle, so I thought I'd get me one made, closet stop to where I think I can get one is a stable...

As I enter the stable I get a message....All your animals will be waiting outside for you (or something like that)

Well, stables don't build saddles, off to try the camp or a trapper I guess.

When I leave the stable...all my hides are not on the horse! Fuck! Went to the nearest trapper to see if they magically got to him...Nope.

Gonna try the camp next...somehow, I think the stable gipped me of those 3 hides.

Zep--

Death also removes all the hides. Think I have lost at least 20 good hides that way.

I've reached (in the LP) St. Denis. I am quite convinced that the scriptwriting takes a nosedive somewhere after Horseshoe Overlook, and goes from the realism or at least plausibility of the prologue into GTA V territory by the time you meet the first evil boss in St. Denis.

IMO the game could have ended with the end of the family feud region, and nothing bad could have been said about it or its length.

Well basically the game main story is just a setup to the breakup of Dutch's Band and John falling out with it but since that isnt really much to go with that you just end up with a stretched campaign with somewhat disjointed stories as there is simply not enough material for that, also it have the *slight* side-effect of making Dutch being a incompetent leader because robberies tend to play out as GTA V Heists if you picked every wrong option, might make then exciting to play but since the end up going all wrong kinda hard to understand why following such a screw up in the first place.
