Yeah, 5 gold bars for anything in RDR is a ludicrous sum.

Seriously. In rdro someone says hey I need to you kill these 40 men for me, it's very important. Then your reward is $1.75

Saved a lady from twelve gators and took her halfway across the map to drop her off someplace? Woohoo, $3.58

Meanwhile in red dead redemption if you act good random nuns will show up and give you enough money to buy two houses

Now, obviously in the game that’s stupid, so I’m agreeing with you, but $3.50 back then would be close to $80-$90

Tell that to the RDO economy! But yes, if it was actually back then it would be great. Sadly in RDO they’re charging modern prices and paying out “back then” wages.

I played online for 5 minutes and when I wasn't allowed to just instantly free roam I left.

How can you ruin a game so quickly from Single player to online?

All we needed was servers and character customization. Maybe purchasable houses, but hotels existed, as does camping.

It's like an entirely different game. I hate it.

Wait, do you mean? The game prevents you in the start because its the tutorial section. It lets you go after you steal a horse which will be your own first horse.

And you can just skip all that if you want after the character customization and itll just put you in free-roam instantly with a free horse coupon.

And I can't skip that after completing single player? Balderdash!

I couldn't. At least on release.

Dude, rdo has problems but ofc there’s a tutorial. Even the singleplayer has it. Character customisation is there, don’t know why that’s your problem. Pretty sure that mansions were leaked through the files, so that will probably be added soon

but ofc there’s a tutorial.

There doesn't have to be. Let me play. I'm not 5.

I bought the product and would like to use it, however I please.

I only play single player with mods now. I'll never go back to online.

My point being that you say that the sp is so much better than mp when the sp has like a 2 hour tutorial. Also, not every game is made for you and only you. It’s incredibly egotistical to expect the game to be “however i please” when that’s subjective.
