Is anyone on here still playing this? Big update this week with what is basically four battle passes layered on top of each other. Not for everyone, but exactly what I need to make RDR Online work for me. Suddenly, the general milling around I like to do is rewarded in a way it wasn’t before. So definitely worth a try if you’ve been interested in just exploring more and being in that world. Of course, there’s the buy in. With the PS exclusive unlock, Twitch Prime, and a stock of gold (that just seems to have come from very occasionally playing over the past few months), it wasn’t a big deal. But for all the internet ‘omg they’re trying to make us pay gold to play’, I thought it was all pretty fair given the Catch 22 of ‘We need people to feel like they’re investing into something’ and ‘We need this new content to be accessible and get people in deeper’.

We did it!

I really do like this, especially in terms of the world they’re building out. The whole opening sequence was one of my favourites from this year - probably beyond. Wish I hadn’t started on default difficulty though. I find myself spamming the same few moves (chain wrap is a big one) with little incentive to be creative. Only on file 3 (or 4) so might change it up — is the next one up hard, or just more of your Bayonetta level difficulty?

I hope you’re all appreciative. I spent two hours of my life modding my Wii U and loading SNES roms onto it last week, so pretty much ushered in the launch of an easier way to play SMW.

Ede continues to just demolish everything. It’s absurd in the best possible way.

Ah — as long as it’s not just me being lost.

I can’t for the life of me figure out how to see the full bios for other houses — where it tells you their preferences etc. Do you just not get that info for outsiders?

Ah, got you. Cheers!

Finding this a lot to learn — it seems my memory has been wiped since Awakenings / about half of Fates. And yet I wake up on a Monday morning and it’s literally the first thing I think of. Love it and can’t wait to get back to it later. One unclear thing — after the first few battles where it specifically says they’re immune, do characters die in side quests (ie. the ones called Auxiliary that you can do on a Sunday?). I had someone go down, but his dialogue was more ‘damn it’ than ‘wow I am dying’. Afterwards, he wasn’t in my roster when I got back to school — but was happily munching away in the dining hall?

Shopto only dispatched yesterday (after a technical problem on their side screwed it up...) and today Royal Mail have failed me .

You beat me to it. Which is a tragedy because I have yet another ‘get one friend’ research task!

That was fast -- cheers to all three of our new friends!

Me and the kids have been very recently getting back into this -- need three more friends for a research task, can I add anyone on here? Our code is 0004 0980 9862

Just this moment got the timing right. And there I thought I was being so smart with my high road short cut... Awesome work! One of my favourites so far.

Have now spent the last 50 minutes smashing my face against the high jump on the third section, so that’s promising! Love this kind of course, though — another one to add to my maker to-do list.
