I play solo most of the time and I still have fun. It’s just finding what keeps you entertained. For me it’s either getting samples for naturalist and filling out my log. And when I need a break from that I just do bounty hunting for the action. Sure it isn’t really “new” updates and you would hear people say the game was abandoned but there’s still plenty to do. I mean at least in my personal experience

Absolutely. I’ve been playing online for over four years now and I still love it.

Everything is soloable (almost) and it’s easy to get people to join your posse if you want to find strangers to play with (on console anyway)

Just started last week and play online more than story mode haha. I joined the discord and found a posse I enjoy, having a lot of fun making my own path.

I've spent a lot of hours playing alone and enjoying it, also quite a bit with one of my cousins.

I just started online this month and I’m enjoying it a lot. I paid for some gold bars to get bounty hunter right away and now I’m using that to get all the other roles. Having a great time tbh

Started playing on my Xbox last week after getting it on sale. Don’t have anyone to play with, but still enjoy the gameplay loops available & the customization. It can feel slow but it’s relaxing & satisfying. And I’m sure with friends you can get creative role playing to make up for the lack of future content support.

I just started and having a decent time with it while visiting family. I see why a lot of people dislike it—it has SO MUCH potential to be truly incredible that it feels a bit disappointing. Still enjoying it but can’t help but see potential in nearly everything I do: poker with voice chat, interact with NPCs, more NPCs, robberies, property, etc.

Me too partner, starting tonight. I played once and got fucked by a hacker repeatedly then manipulated him into giving me something. I honestly forget what lol. I blew his head off and logged off.

If you want to be both excited and disappointed. This is the game for you.
As you progress you see all the potential this game has and how much fun it could be.
Once you have progressed you see there is no end game.
You work to accrue gold and cash to unlock all the class roles and shiny cosmetics.
Once you unlock all the shineys you realize there is nothing that compels you to keep playing except love for the game itself.
if you are going to play I would investigate how to solo lobby. It’s actually more fun, unless you have a friend(s)

I started playing it a little recently. It’s boring as fuck and a huge barrier is the amount of money you need to have anything. Grinding repetitive missions over and over is not fun at all imo. It’s cool to be in the world of rdr2 but for me it isn’t that fun. It might be a lot better playing with friends, idk. Give it a try, see what you think.

u/Mmischief13 Collector 1d ago
Well, like many other games, it takes a bit of a grind to get where u wanna be..
The different roles help a lot though.

u/Cary14 22h ago
I agree with you tbh, I'm doing it recently to finally get the platinum trophy. As soon as I get that, I'm done with it. I enjoyed it for a few days but then it just becomes super repetitive.
Collector role earns you good XP and tidy money for complete sets.
Bounty hunter...which everyone seems to bang on about is just very boring. Ride to a camp, scout for the target, capture target, then ride to Jail. And you get....early on at least $12 for a live capture....5 for a dead one. Also take ages to level up. 7 bounties caught still level 1
