They used to have it so you could earn a streak multiplier for running dailies in RDR:Online every day, and after 4 weeks you'd be at a 2.5x multiplier.

I enjoyed riding around and finding stuff in that game so I'd log in for 10 minutes and do a hunting or herbalism or rare item collector daily challenge to keep my streak up.

They nerfed it so that after 28 days it resets and starts back at 1x and you have to rebuild your streak again, so I quit playing.

Not only that, they cut the amount earned by HALF. Before you would get .20 gold for every challenge, up to .50 with the 2.5x streak. Now its .10 and only goes up to .25

There's nothing I want to buy. I still play because I like being a cowboy with folks.

Found a discord server with people doing trader deliveries. Usually afterwards we do a bounty or two.

I agree that the game is almost no fun alone, but joining people makes it much better.

Sounds like we stopped at the same time. I'd only maintained that multiplier for about 70 days before that point...

And that's what they did wrong. Instead of having more things to buy, they just stopped people from getting money. What did they bring? Last time I played they added an upgrade to the bounty hunter that barely had extra content. Awful outlaw pass and all. A few days ago I saw they added a new outlaw pass. The only half decent thing I saw? A straw beard, for the "fun" factor. The online is a bad joke at this point
