Red Dead Redemption 2 100% Speedrun in

the game is so big that in a normal speedrun like super mario bros a 0.5 time save would be so big and in this game a 4 hour time save is good just shows to prove how gigantic this game is.

I would just like to thank you for the amazing work here, because this is a perfect outline for a 100% playthrough I can do at my own pace for that trophy. I can't imagine the dedication a 35 hr speedrun takes, but I can imagine the 350 hr version I'm about to start for my trophies

Don't know if you're still on this run, but I can tell from my perhaps 500 hours of solo : you don't have to dismount to inspect dreamcatchers and the easiest and fastest way to skip the skinning animation is to place your horse facing the belly of dead animals, between the legs

best red dead player i've ever seen in my life! Congratulations! I really want to do the 100% but I have two questions: first is it necessary to deliver the items to the campmates for the 100%?

I wanted to start a new save and not depend on doing camping missions, and delivering camping items. because I already have both trophies. I just want the 100% trophy, you know?
