I would guess there are various breeds of horse you can purchase, and War Horse will be one such breed. If your War Horse dies you can purchase another of the War Horse breed, but would have to start the bonding process from scratch. From what I'm to gather the bonding process won't increase the speed/stamina of your horse, that will be dependant on the breed, but will rather decrease the chance of your horse spooking and make it more obedient. 

This makes sence ^

Why are you guys so pessimistic about it? Jeez. If the horse bonding and horse permadeath is in the game just like they said, maybe what you get is the deed like in RDR1, but you can't use it in the spot for the horse to reappear and you have to physically go to a "horse vendor" or whatever to claim the horse.

Indeed. Again, I think "War Horse" will be another breed not the name of an individual horse. Just like if you owned say a Friesian horse for a while and it died, I'm sure you can purchase another horse of the Friesian breed, but it wouldn't be the same horse and you'd have to start the bonding process from the beginning.

 I want this game to be as realistic as possible,

I think having a reusable deed is a bad idea.

You were unlucky or careless and you let your horse die?..Well sh*t happens, you have to deal with it.

You have these options.... Buy a new one,

                                         Capture and broke a wild one

                                         Steal someone else's.

Only thing I can tell you is to lower your expectations, else the only thing you'll get is disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I'd love that too, but it will most likely not happen.

Looks like they're gonna be doing something more special with treasure hunting this time around!

I just posted my dream scenario but I'm going to enjoy this game no matter what, it's been 8 long years since the last one.... .

I think the reusable deed makes the game a little more accommodating of different play styles. More casual gamers can use it to just get a new horse quick while people looking for a more realistic, LARP friendly experience can pretend they need to go out and find a new one or whatever.

I understand, nothing wrong with accomodating the casual player.

Actually, now that I think about it, my main beef with the deed was not that accomodation, it was the fact that it presented you with an exact clone of the horse that had just died since each breed in RDR had only one horse to show.

But that was 8 years ago I'm hoping for more variety in RDR2.

I look like a mongoloid but I guess it won't matter when I play Red Dead Redemption 2.

Previous droughts have prepared us for this. We must stay strong to survive the final march!

 

TOGETHER!

It was gone for me, too.  "Page Not Found."  Somebody's gonna get their knuckles rapped for posting that too soon.

Is the art book legit or is it fake? When does it supposed to come out?

[Grizzy]

Do you guys think there will be a pre-download option or not? Or is that pretty much the norm for games now? Lol

[Idro_Novenalen]

So these "bonuses" for preorder are available only preordering the digital version of the game?

Probably not 

[The Jungz]

No chance I'm getting anything other than the digital version. Getting real tired of having my physical copies just stop working after a few years, even when they're in perfect condition.

[tucky99]

tbh im kinda worried about the cash bonus for singleplayer, and in app purchases. surely rockstar wouldnt do offline microstransactions????
