I have almost 18 hours but I'm still on chapter 2

[Dawido]

It's because I like exploring and roleplaying as cowboy, to be honest, but also im kinda not sure what to do now.
I will plan tomorrow to rob a train, there are few ideas to do it, like buying a ticket and pulling out a gun during ride, or jumping on train and starting shooting, but I also gonna finally progress story of course

[REVAX]

As you should take your time exploring and doing side missions.

Nice. Let Arthur who is in the prime of his life in chapter 2 enjoy life to the fullest boah.

[BurrZerka]

Like the others have said. Just enjoy the game and all the fun stuff outside the main story. I've replayed this game a few times for this reason. Pretty much what I do now to relax after a stressful day of real life. Find random stuff to do in Chapter 2 rdr2...

[WondrinOstrich]

Just enjoy exactly your way in taking your time, experiment (like with your ideas of robbing a train or something completely different) and do your roleplay in your pace, the game allows exactly that.

There is no need to progress too soon (if ever!) and you can pick sidemissions or avoid them as you like.

maybe you rather hunt and enjoy the view or go after enemies, tame horses, explore. only in proceeding with the main story one has to follow certain tracks but you absolutely can take your time there and follow your pace, as you do that already !!

just a few missions are time-sensitive, but you will know that, when you get there. but if there is a mission for the main story and you see the blip on the map, there is no need to do that right now, even if gang members repeatedly ask you about it - there is no "story failed, 'cause you forgot it".

this is in most parts (imho a quite enjoyable) open world game. only if you collect certain things - clothing, weaponry, horses - you might have to proceed with the story, for some parts are only unlocked later on, but those things certainly are everything but necessary for a redempting live in the old west ;-))

well I am 71 hours in the game still in Chapter-2 LOL

[Man o' War]

I spent over a thousand hours in chapter two and still kept finding new things.

Time loses all meaning when exploring the world in this game.

[Squirrely1111]

Exactly!

[Brian.G]

It's a pretty universal belief that Chapter 2 is the best part of the game.

[Dawido]

I now reached Chapter 3.
I plan to get some new horse, and rob Valentine bank, maybe fishing and explore the world

[Westford]

I'm on my second play through and also on chapter 3.
I plan on staying in chapter 3 for a while and have spent
most of my time exploring and hunting Legendary Animals so I can have
Trinkets and Talismans crafted.

Also been fishing for Legendary fish.

You can also hunt the required 3 star pelts for Pearson for
camp cosmetic upgrades, upgrading your satchel,
and of course the Legend of the East Satchel.

These activities will keep you busy for quite a while.

300plus hours, still in chapter two.

Free roaming only now starts to get a bit boring sometimes, but still things to do, to enjoy, and to discover.

I really love how the landscape, the weather, the plants and the wildlife is portayed.
Yeah, some disappointments and annoyances, but this game is FANTASTIC.
