The Proper Way To Rob the Secret Poker Room Without Getting Wanted (Saint Denis Gunsmith) - RDR2

[@Pyx-AJ]

You forgot to loot the shop owner, all that talk about clean weapons and he has a worn out pistol.

[@donniek2837]

😂😂

[@ainzer2903]

Well there's a rare chance you got non "worn" weapons that you already bought for off-hand pair for free, only need some cleaning and customisation. But most of time, you'll find worn weapons

[@jkneeland89]

@Garland846 Most likely trying to subtly hint that gun dealers are all criminals cuz “guns are bad” and all. They are based out of NYC where guns are banned so go figure.

[@3xeplodng_3agle_studios]

​Simple solution for valentine- dont reach the epilogue. He aint been rude to arthur once in my playthroughs😂. You a low honor player?​@Garland846

[@Fredfazbear-uw7zu]

Yeah what's next a Nun but with machine guns!

[@brunobotelho4502]

There's more in the safe on the wall: 17 dollars. I mean, the economy in this game is just fucked. It was the only downside of it, really. But it was royally fucked. You earn too much money by just playing the game and a laughable amount of money for going out of your way to earn it. Not to mention the gang's donation box, where you donate hundreds of dollars and still have to listen other characters who donates cents talking shit to you.

[@weird_lemur]

You do realize that $17 back then was $558? The economy in the game isn't fucked, it's real for the time. the economy in real world modern society is what is fucked

[@brunobotelho4502]

@@weird_lemur Okay, but it was disproportionate to all the games systems. Sure, you're right. $17 was enough for that particular scenario, but the proportion in which you earn money in the game up to this point makes 17 dollars worth absolutely fucking nothing. I'm not discussing inflation, capitalism or real world economy. I'm talking about game design.

[@weird_lemur]

@@brunobotelho4502 again the game's economy was fine. don't you realize how actually hard it was to get that much money in the first place. just because we the players are doing it as arthur easily doesn't mean it was ACTUALLY easy. think about it broadly rather than narrow tunnel vision. the game design is perfect, you just play the game in a way that counters realism.

[@ItsNotNick]

@@weird_lemur The only person with tunnel vision is you. You're so focused on your own opinion that you're not seeing what he's saying.

[@brunobotelho4502]

@@weird_lemur Man. I'm gonna disagree with you. I played this game roleplaying the shit out of it. I didn't exploit absolutely no system, nor grinded to get cash. If anything I whish the criminal system paid better, while mission systems paid less, so you had to be a criminal in sandboxin every while and then. RDR2 is up there tied with another game as my favorite game of all time. So don't think I'm a hater or anything. But criminal and economical gameplay is not its forte. Its Ok if you disagree, I don't think its a big deal, I just think it has lots and lots of room for improvement.

[@leonalcock2735]

These missions should reward a couple hundred for Arthur/John seeing how few there actually are.

[@JustSendMeLocationPlease]

Honestly it should but I think you really only need like a couple grand in one playthrough and you’ll have everything you’ll ever need. Everything extra is just for cosmetic purposes in my opinion

[@tom-vf1xv]

Eh you can rob gunstores/generalstores basically as much as you want which gives 15-20 dollar every store.

[@leonalcock2735]

@@leonalcock2735 not the backrooms, but in valentine you can rob the cash register of the general store, then go to the doctor and then the gunsmith. Flee valentine make camp and sleep and repeat. Gives about 50-70 bucks per 5 mins

I lost it and killed all of them upstairs, including the dealer. Thinking that I could open up the safe myself, then one of them said that only he knew the combination for the safe.

[@trippyshrimp8598]

Whenever I do any robberies or the secret poker room robbery I always do them once the store has closed, I stay in there buying some ammo in this case or upgrading guns around midnight until the gunsmith asks me to leave and then I do the robbery. This is so no one will come in the store and see the empty register or bodies on the ground, it’s happened a lot then a bunch of police swarm outside the building.

[@well1012]

Aw my God. Stuff as you have just described makes me love this game even more. My top three are this, Fallout NV and San Andreas (the 90s pop cultural aspect is what makes SA my top GTA game; anyone who says “Yeah bro bOyZ iN dA hOoD,” I view as uneducated.

After getting all the money and loot, I escaped on rooftop and was able to find my way down.

After arthur tries to rob the shop owner a second time and fails due to the dude not budging.while the man has a visible bandage on his head from arthurs last visit mind you.

I like gunsmiths (except for the one in Rhodes) so I try not to rob or hurt them... Especially since they remember what you did and guilt trip you the next time you come back.

[@navarel9892]

i found out that even if you have the police come and investigate the poker table, so long as there's no actual dead body, and you moved the door guard far enough inside, the police won't know who did it, they will start to question you but apparently you can't reply and can only run got a 50cent bounty tho for assault apparently, not bad at all lol, still easier than the valentine doctor robbery

[@GreatButterMan]

i've done this robbery maybe 2 times and not once was i wanted. Just make the shopkeeper pass out, the guard on 1st floor either leave or pass out, use items like tomahawk or knife to kill guards. Collect the money and leave the city. It aint hard. Edit: i overcomplicated. just dont shoot anybody, and dont loot the safe.

[@Nini_Vieira]

I did that and got a 50 cent bounty, wasn't a high bounty so I decided to surrender myself to not complicate the situation, was still worth it, got 50 dollars out of that

[@woopoganntnt7379]

something so annoying about Rockstars definition of immersive gameplay lol i tomahawked the guard and got wanted but literally only the dudes in the room saw it lmao love this game but fuck rockstar

[@nerthus4685]

The safe guy ended getting away. I had a 0.50 cent bounty. I was running from the 100 St Denis cops and my A hole horse bucked me, so I had to kill half the city to stay alive. A $60 robbery cost me $100's.
