Start saving now, buckeroos!!

[Sarku]

So, I played some more today. Highlights included:

- A mountain lion attacked me and it killed my horse. I had to shoot the damn thing 4 times to kill it. My poor horse. I skinned it and took its meat to market.

- I had a shoot out with some rough neck and filled him so full of lead, he'll be shitting Hasslefree Miniatures for a week.

- I also ran into a bandits' hideout and rescued the daughter of some old dude.

- I saved the game and went on a rampage and was picking people off with my shotgun purely at random. It was a blast. I haven't had this much fun playing a game since Oblivion.

- I got a new outfit. I'm dressed kind of like Maverick now and I can cheat when I play cards (not sure what that means yet)

All in all, I've played probably 4 hours and I've only played the main quest for about 30 minutes. A word to the wise, make sure you master the fine art of using your Dead Eye. That assassin outfit, once you can get it, will come in very handy. I wish I had it now.
