So You Wanna Be a Big-Shot Outlaw in New Austin, Eh Partner? A Guide to Racking Up a Bounty
Howdy, cowpokes and calamity Janes! Dreamin' of following in the dusty footsteps of legendary gunslingers? Itchin' to put a hefty bounty on your head and become the most wanted varmint in New Austin? Well, saddle up, 'cause this here guide's gonna teach you how to go from mild-mannered Marston to mean ol' Micah (without the whole creepy mustache thing).
First Things First: You Already Got a Head Start (Probably)
New Austin? That sun-baked, rattlesnake-infested paradise? Yeah, you might already have a bounty there. Thanks to a certain Blackwater incident in the early chapters (no spoilers!), you're likely a wanted man the moment you set hoof in that territory. Check your mini-map! See a nice red sheriff's badge icon blinkin' there? Congratulations, partner, you're halfway to outlaw stardom!
But What If I'm Bounty-Free and Law-Abiding (Boooring!)
QuickTip: Pause to connect ideas in your mind.
Don't fret, sunshine! There's plenty of ways to turn from choirboy to chief bandit. Here's a handy-dandy list:
- Become a Public Nuisance (Literally): Draw your iron on any unsuspecting critter, be it a two-legged townsfolk or a feathery friend. Start with a good ol' bar brawl, escalate to robbing a stagecoach (yeehaw!), and pretty soon, the law will be hotter on your trail than a scorpion on a chili pepper.
- Who Needs Manners? The law frowns upon things like murder, assault, and grand theft auto (horse-drawn carriages count!). Make a habit of these little social faux pas, and you'll be swimming in bounty faster than you can say "Dutch's plan."
- The Sheriff Don't Like That Smile: Resist arrest! It's like a challenge, see? Sure, you might get ventilated with lead, but hey, at least you went out a defiant outlaw! (Maybe don't try this one first...)
Pro-Tip: The towns of Tumbleweed and Armadillo are prime locations for some good ol' fashioned mayhem. Just don't get too attached to the scenery – you'll be on the run in no time!
Tip: Reread key phrases to strengthen memory.
