Which missions do I have to finish so that I can do all actions in the open world of Red Dead Redemption 2

red-dead-redemption-2

As it turns out, I tried to free roam in the Wild West too early. I wasn't even able to unsaddle my horse.

So before I venture out the next time, I want to unlock all side-actions and activities.

Which missions do I have to tackle that allow me to truly roam free? By that I mean go hunting and fishing, finding treasures, and side-games like poker as all I see is domino.

I am looking for a list of quest-giver, quest name, and what it unlocks, e.g.:

  • Hosea Matthews, "Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego", unlocks the stable, unsaddling of horses, and grants you the brush for horse grooming.
