Today’s game is Red Dead Redemption 1. I did Nigel West Dicken’s quest today, and i forgot how old he looked. Since i last played the first game, i’ve always just had this image of him i guess being a little younger.

Instead he’s this kind of wrinkly i don’t remember. I don’t know, maybe his tophat makes him look younger?

I also got this lovely quote from him. Words to live by honestly. I’m currently waiting for him to recover. While i did i went and did another stranger mission. Namely American Appetites Pt. 2. It turned out to be more difficult for me than i expected though because i went up the cliff. Turns out though that i didn’t need to go up there. I ended up accidentally falling down the cliff though to get where i needed too. That’s where the main screenshot is from. Moments before the fall.

The last mission i did was the Cow herding one with Bonnie. It was a chill mission, and it was nice to see John in his element instead of just Shooting guys. I’d have to assume the Bonnie questline is to show how John can’t lead a normal life due to his past catching up with him since it ends with the barn burning and Bonnie being held for Ransom.

With how Rockstar is i wouldn’t be surprised if this was intentional. It’s a very nice detail to notice regardless if it is though. And it’s part of what i love about these games. That’s where i chose to end off for tonight though. The New Austin Chapter is a lot longer than i remember. And it seems to be longer than the other ones too. Maybe this weekend i’ll sit down and just binge the entire game. I’d love to get to Undead Nightmare soon (one of my favorite parts of this game)

    Me too. I know i’ve said this so many times in the past so i probably sound like a broken record, But i genuinely wasn’t expecting to make it this long. Most things that i’m consistent about don’t last for more than a month. A few months at most

      With the title you initially chose, trust me, no one was expecting to make it this long 😀 It’s nice to promise less and over deliver than to promise a lot and then under deliver.

        Me neither. When i started it was just me dropping the Screenshot and dipping, i’m much happier with these longer posts though. I’ve thought about changing the title a few times top reflect it and others have suggested it, but at this point i think it’s too late for that
