Spoiler: show: I remember this much.. I just bought a barn and I'm pretty sure that's where John dies trying to take out 20 guys.. followed by a future epilogue of little jack grown up avenging him.. I also believe this is the house u start up rustling sheep in 1

I'm not going to lie, I mostly loved the epilogues. Give a ton of credit to Rockstar for telling their story.

I dunno if it's the awful missions, but they seem longer than the chapters of the regular game.. it's either you're doing household chores or you're doing basically the same battle over n over

Honestly it takes away from Arthurs story (hell, it took me a second or two to even remember what the main characters name was, it's been so long)

I didn't even play the epilogue because the main story was so good. I YouTube'd most of it.

I think about going back and playing this again but it's so long. It legitimately took up 2 months of my life.

I get that, but I never saw an epilogue where the length is comparable to the main story

I never wanted it to end. I think they made it like that for people of my state of mind.

The epilogue is probably the equivalent of 1.5 chapters of the main story. The main story had six. Don't be dramatic.

Precisely why I've yet to finish epilogue 2 8-)

But pretty sure I'm close now that I've finished that fantastic little barn building number...

It was a barn burner

That's where I'm at now..

I dunno, when I beat the game I think I was at 40 some percent n now I'm at 60 some with more to go in ep 2.. it seems way more than 1.5

Yeah I'm pretty sure I've done less than 50% of the non-story and stranger missions. Planning to hit those after the story, although I'm debating starting over and doing as much as a I can with Arthur instead (just prefer and enjoy his character more overall). Probably won't happen that way as I already have a backlog of games I'm trying to get to....

I can't open this at work. Can you copy/paste the good parts?

Read it at home. It is super long. But well written.

Have you read this yet, tree_?

There's a few points towards the end that made me roll my eyes, but there are several good points in here.

I have better things to do when at home. I still can't open it at work. Paste it here or chances are I'm not gonna read it.
