Played for about an hour and a half last night. It's a pretty game. Gameplay feels like a typical Rockstar game, super weighty and almost lumbering. Can't wait to really dive in tonight.

Some of the controls are annoying (I spent like 5 minutes trying to get my shotgun off the horse and i still don't know how i actually did it). Getting beyond the first couple hours of introduction annoy me, so i'm not too far into it yet. I need a couple spare hours before i dive bacjk into it.

I find myself fascinated with the snow mechanics.

I just made it to Chapter 2 yesterday.... i'm hoping once all the tutorials are over the pace of the game picks up.... it fun but if the game stays at this slow ass pace I'm not going to be able to play it for much longer....

I was frustrated with the controls as well but it seemed it was because they were stopping from doing things I had previously done because they are forcing the player to go a certain route which was reallllllly annoying,.... made me second guess myself if I remembered how to do certain things in the game like get a weapon from my horse.

Controls are pretty clunky and certain things are annoying but after you get used to that this game is fucking great.
I need to play more to really say but so far I love it. Really immersive and I finally got bit by the bug yesterday and played for like 6 hours.

I only sat down to play it once so far. I've been skating more than playing video games which is good for my weight, bad for my nerd cred.

I’ve played like 2 hours total. Having a 5 month old person at home doesn’t lend well to my video gaming anymore :lol:
