I just finished, Read Dead Redemption 2.  Man, that was tough ending.  I really enjoyed that game.

I just started Chapter 5.  It's getting hard to put down.

I’m in Epilogue Part II.  I have this weird emptiness feeling going through the Epilogue.

Yep, I couldn't even get started on the Epilogue.  Just didn't have it in me.  I will probably go back and check it out later at some point, but not anytime soon.

At the very least, there is one mission in the Epilogue that you absolutely must do.

It kind of helped me. It's worth beating for the credits alone.

I finished the story and am settled in for the epilogue. I'm glad it's there just to finish up some side quests.

The one advice I would give for those who have not reached the Epilogue would be to not waste efforts on horses....stabled or not.

It will open up at least one more side quest as well.

I’ve found rdr2map.com to be helpful as I collect dinosaur bones and other stuff.

some of my friends have pokemon fever again with the new switch game.  i played the crap out of red/green.  This is tempting.

I play a little NBA 2K19 every now and then. It's kind of fun. I'd recommend it but I wouldn't pressure you into buying, you know?

I always had trouble getting into basketball games, although its probably been 10 years since I tried.  I can't get over missing open shots, even though I know its a realistic part of basketball.  If I played the game right, I want my points.

I finished the Epilogue this weekend.  I had pretty much all my side mission completed.  I've found all the rock carvings, dinosaur bones, and dreamcatchers.  I've killed all the legendary animals and caught all the legendary fish (Spoiler Alert!...except the new 14th fish because everything I have read says it cannot be caught). 

I agree that there are some points throughout this game that makes no damn sense. 

1)  Why upgrade the camp?  Worthless.
2)  What happens if a person did not craft all the upgrade-able satchels from the butcher after Chapter 6?  Would they ever be able to get them/reap the benefits?  I guess at that point not a bid deal, right?

It had been so long since I played RDR1 that I was completely oblivious that RDR2 was the prequel.  I watched a timeline YouTube video that outlines the story from the two games.  I kind of wish they would remake RDR1 and improve the story a bit more.  Or maybe make a RDR3 focused on Jack Marston?

You can buy all the satchels from a fence post chapter 6 (like $50 each or something)

I think we can all agree that SNES Super Punch Out is a stupid rough ridin' game and no one should participate in this farce.

I beat that game when I was 10.
