This was a replay, the first time I played I loved the story.
This time I spend around 100 hours in chapter 2 exploring the world, which was amazing, before moving on with the story.
The things I found annoying-

1. Weird NPC comments - like remarks by gang on how soon Arthur returned to camp or the blood on him, when he has a deer on his shoulder, when Arthur is the only one feeding them. Or NPC saying why is Arthur following him, while walking down stairs.
2. Arthur saying he'll look for gang member request item even when he already has it.
3. Law system, inconsistent economy.
4. No repercussions of Arthur's behavior with gang or Arthur's contribution to camp funds.

This broke immersion for me on several occasions even when I wanted to believe otherwise as I was loving the world and wanted to be deeply immersed regardless.
But these were minor issues and were overshadowed by the beautiful world.
I finally lost it with all the spoon-feeding and the hand-holding during missions, and when daddy rockstar did not like it when I did not play EXACTLY how they wanted me to, standing in the wrong spot - mission failed, try a different strategy - mission failed, jumped directly outside Danbury's window - guess what - mission failed because Danbury just had a divine vision and destroyed the documents in a second. Fuck this shit.

However much I loved the open world this time and the story in the first play-through. RDR2 is definitely overrated and extremely annoying.

End of rant. This is obviously just an opinion, and enjoying game is the only thing that matters, so if you do, lucky you.

I know this is a very unpopular opinion. Nevertheless, would like to share why I think this.

Syanna planned the death of a handful, manipulated detlaff to seek revenge. Her motives, understand them or not, might not justify her means. The key point for me here is the number of deaths planned.

Detlaff though initially manipulated, later decided to murder 100s of innocents on his own will. His being more emotional than normal can explain this among other things but does not justify this. He was solely responsible for these deaths.

Anna chose to trade the life of her sister, even after learning she was responsible for the murders, for the lives of 100s of innocent civilians whom she could have saved. It was just plain stupid for a ruler who claims to care so much for her people.

Having said this I would like to admit that I do understand the hate that syanna gets, and respect the opinions. But even after 2 playthroughs, I simply don’t agree.

Genuinely trying to know if this is intentional to incorporate non-free open source software? If yes then why?
