One thing I wish this game did better was to have a screen somewhere that better mapped out controls. I've found its kinda hard to keep track of button combos do what actions. Also, some of the controls themselves are a bit wonky. Like you'll tell Arthur to do something and it takes a couple of button tries before he actually does it. Or another example is you'll awkwardly walk around something waiting for the prompt to pick it up. Things doesn't feel quite as fluid motionwise as they could be. But so far, this is really the only negative I've found. It's nothing super annoying or game breaking, but its just awkward from time to time

The auto-aim/aim swaying feels really counter-intuitive at first compared to modern shooters. I had a lot more luck 'quickscoping' than actually aiming in most situations early on. It makes more sense to struggle a lot in this type of setting, though, so I don't think perfect controls would really fit this style of game much. Having PC mouse aiming and inventory mapping would be super convenient but maybe that would also defeat the point.

I had a decent number of control issues when I first booted up Witcher 3 but once I got used to them I enjoyed the game quite a bit. It feels like a similar learning curve.

One major complaint i do have with this game is that the HDR effect fucking sucks. That is extremely disappointing in a game of this caliber, that is this new, and that has such extreme attention to detail that they have put into everything. Hopefully they can patch it down the road to fix some of it.

My major complaint is you can't buy any prostitutes. WTF. It's the old West. How the fuck am I suppose to get the full Western experience if I can't buy a whore, rob her afterwards, and then fight my way out of the Cathouse?

It makes sense in the context of the story with the character you play but I do agree it would’ve been nice just like in GTA, one of my favorite parts.

I recommend you guys head to Aberdeen Pig Farm, it is quite the quest. You know when are at the right house when you see a fat bastard sitting in the porch.

There never been game with the atmosphere like RDR2. The level of detail, the lively world, where you feel like you apart of a world, not saving the world. You take part in it, not make it up. Those houses will be built with or without you, train tracks will get laid, the world with function with or without you. The things you do effect everything like in real life, those actions won't be story related, but visual and audio related. Some times all three will be effected, sometimes just one or two.

If you are with your gang and you just laid another gang to waste, you better quickly loot the bodies before your fellow gang members loot them. One mission I "borrowed" a guys horse to chase after someone. After I caught the guy the mission ended. No prompt to return the horse, nothing to tell you what to do. I returned the horse, he was thankful, got on his horse and took off. People got about their business, there was a hanging in Valentine, watched to see what was going to happen. Sheriff read off his crimes, the defendant apologized and people were talking in the crowd in front to the hanging stage. A woman who was seemed to be his wife, pleaded for him and sobbed the whole time. After he was hung, people started to disperse except for the woman still sobbing sitting in the mud, trying to deal with her emotions.

I'm like an hour in and all I'm doing is following a bunch of goat fuckers around on a horse in the snow. This is gay af.

Damn good game, playing a lot of it. Sad that it has a small chance to go to PC and if it does it'll probably be a year+ down the road. Game would look amazing on my current setup. But I'll take what I can get.

I am ticked off, apparently if you fail a certain mission Saddie Adler and John’s wife dissappear for like an entire chapter. I’m extremely annoyed.
