I finished the first run-thru of RDR2. I have only dabbled in RDR Online, but wasn’t thrilled with it.

Any suggestions / recommendations on RDR2 the 2nd time around?

I haven’t played online yet but it looks like they added a bunch of stuff.

You could go for 100% completion in story mode. Or perhaps play it as a total good-guy or a bad-guy.

I started a total bad-guy game after finishing the campaign - after a while I found it rather depressing, murdering everyone who was hoping for a good samaritan, at the side of the road. And the morality-meter seemed to take ages to drift toward the dark side. This might be because the missions kept bumping it in the wrong direction.
