Me and my Friend played Some Red Dead Online today. I went fishing and some how managed to get my character to float off a dock. Sadly i couldn't get any fish to bite. In fact, after doing a bounty i feel like no animals were spawning. After i gave up i found a nearby gang hideout, which i didn't even know was a thing in RDO. After clearing them out i found this shrine while looting the place:

I also climbed down this well nearby my camp. I was really expecting there to be something down here but there was nothing. While i was on my way out my friend fell on me and killed us both.

While on my way back into Saint Denis to pick up a bounty i went a way i never had before. I don't think i've ever seen this side of the city. It's really pretty:

I also went ahead and passed through too sell some pelts and thought the view was pretty in that area (though, this entire game is pretty. I always end up taking like 80 screenshots.

Love RDR2 but never really spent much time on the online version. Is it good to just explore? Are there missions the same as in the main game but just not voiced by your character?

For exploring i'd say it's more fun with friends, though if you just like exploring the world it's good for that too since The Entire world is unlocked from the get go. There are also story missions, i'd say they're a bit shallower than the story ones due to the online nature, but not much. I believe they're shorter though. There's about ten of them, so you could knock them all out in an evening unless you wanted to so both the Low Honor and High Honor versions. there is also side missions of sorts. They're far shallower though. They boil down too essentially go to this point, do this task, and leave. sometimes there's multiple tasks, but that's the gist of it. Some of them do get creative though. Like there's a train heist you can do where you have to search a runaway train for an emerald (or a fleeing train if you have a friend hijacking the train for you)
