Why am I not able to take a bath at Beecher's?

[Jericho]

There's a bathtub and it even fills with water sometimes. I just think it's a bit asinine that Abagail tells you to clean up but you can't even do it in your own home when you clearly have the amenities necessary and I have to rush off to Blackwater for a bath.

EDIT: Not the first person to think this was extremely weird.

Seems like the epilogue is missing some rather important details.

You still complaining about everything, eh?

Is it not a valid complaint?

jericho.... the wink guy is not wrong.
the amount of discussion topics you create in a short time span is kinda absurd.
and then you will eventually get the label as a complainer.
take a look at your recent discussions: 3 complaining topics in the last 12 hours.....
you need to learn what is important,
and what things to just let go and keep your mouth shut.

but by all means: keep on complaining,
that's when you get to the point that people won't take you serious anymore,
so you get effect of: the boy who cried wolf.
many of your complaints aren't important.
and it's showing.

personally i'm just rolling my eyes when i see you post again about:
*not agreeing with the food mechanics.
*having issues with your repeater sheep kills.
*trappers getting pissy if you shoot a gun near him....... (killing some animal),
*not beeing able to find perfect elks,
*thinking that abigail is so annoying I want to kill her,
*multiple discussion topics about guns equipting,
* minor clipping issues with john's hat,
* then it's about the gambling wich you have trouble with for the challenge..
the list goes on and on ever since you started in the discussions.

pfffff when is it enough and are all these things really worth making all these posts about?
and in such rapid succession?
ofcourse it's your good right to post whatever you want.
but you have to admit that after a while it overstayed its welcome and it becomes nagging complaints and annoyance.

some things you just need to figure out yourself or accept the game for what it is.
so figure it out, take a few breaths, think and zip it.

Compulsive complainer or no, I agree with this point. This fact is absurd, even more because the bathtub is present. If you want to be clean you need to reach Blackwater and pay ; imagine the same in real life. xD

there are bathrooms: why can't i poop.
there is grass everywhere: why can't i mow the lawn.
i have a dog: why can't i bathe my dog.
i have a horse and tools in the shed: why can't i put horseshoes on my own horse?
i have a wagon with a broken wheel: why can't i fix my own wheel.
i have a bathtub: why can't i take a bath......

see what i'm getting at?

rent a bath at the saloon,
that's the mechanic that's in the game.
accept it and shhhh.
cause this excessive amount of complaining is just getting annoying.

I agree. Beecher's Hope would've been the perfect place to take a bath, and for free as well. Just like you can sleep there for free but need to pay in saloons and hotels. Valid complaint imo, especially for a game as detailed as this one. I hope the option is eventually added by modders, if possible.

We get it you like seeing john naked. just say so

Why would I ever create a topic unless I'm having an issue? That's literally the only reason to come here is to ask questions. Compulsive complaining does not take away from the legitimacy of said complaint in and by itself, and there is no harm in asking a question.

Your logic is extremely flawed. For example, 100 people could complain about 100 different valid things, and you would see that as fine, but if a single person made those same 100 complaints, suddenly you would see the complaints as not valid.

"People will stop taking you seriously." Clearly, you're wrong, because besides you and that other guy, everyone else has agreed that it is rather absurd that R* added a tub to John's house yet he can't bathe in said tub when that's literally a mechanic. For a game with as much detail as it has, that just feels very strange. You cannot deny that it would make sense that John could bathe in his own tub.

Your point is null and void because nothing you mentioned is an existing mechanic in the game. Taking a bath IS a mechanic that for whatever reason can't be used at your own house despite you literally having a tub, it just doesn't really make too much sense.

Your post looks like a game of "one of these things isn't like the other."
Bathing dogs isn't a mechanic. Horseshoes aren't a mechanic. Fixing the wagon isn't a mechanic (excluding that one part of the start of the story).

The only thing that is a mechanic is bathing. Your attempt at trying to make me look silly has failed. Try again, big man.

I wish so. Hell they could've even excluded the bath maiden part but I don't think it would be very hard for them to just make it where Abigail bathes you. Though I feel like that's not really in character for her so I'd actually just rather John be able to bathe himself without her company like an actual adult lol.

Like, if he didn't have a tub in his house, I would understand. But like, it feels like they just wanted to add insult to injury.

>Bathing is a mechanic
>There's a tub in your house
>You can't bathe in it
What?
>You can't bathe in it

IT IS ABSURD!

I read they are working on adding a working bath to Beecher's with a Deluxe bath from Uncle. I'm glad they haven't completed this content yet. Also if you change your outfit or clothes it counts as taking a bath and saves on all the animation time.
