2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

Red Dead Redemption 2. I remember picking it up when it was new but I didn't have the time to really get into it, plus the first chapter is very slow, so I didn't give it a proper chance and put it away. I'm very glad I gave it another shot though, because it's such a good game. I'm almost finished the second camper now I think.
I picked it up on Xbox back when it was released, because I liked the first one a lot. It was one of the biggest gaming regrets I've ever made. It is so goddamn tedious.
Like, I get why it's that way. It's the reason it's popular. It's all about the attention to detail and a semblance of realism, but holy shit do I hate it.
I got my first perfect bear skin and was pretty jazzed about it. On my way back to camp I got attacked by a mountain lion, sending me, my horse, and the skin down a hill. I only found my horse.
Maybe I did something wrong, but I've never been more upset at a videogame in my life.
This game is just so massive and definitely has a flow of its own. At some point, I just had to push through the main campaign, otherwise I woul've never seen the end of it. Maybe one day I'll come back to dig the side activities.
