      I spent 13 hours playing #reddeadredemption2 today (roughly 30 total) here's some hot takes (in no particular order) : 1) the game is as frustrating as it is fun. The clunky controls end up giving you these memorable moments of hilarious mishaps BUT

      Those mishaps are so outlandish that they take away from the game's intended "realistic immersion." it's funny in hindsight, but it shouldn't be easy to accidentally strangle someone you just helped. 2) the inability to pick up things the npcs use pulls me out of the immersion

      If a npc is using a hammer to bust a safe, i ought to be able to kill him, then use it myself. For a game that boasts as the ultimate open world game, not being able to stab people with pitchforks reminds me i'm still playing in someone else's sandbox...

      3) incredible amounts of time and resources were spent on perfecting little details, like modeling horse dick/programming the balls to shrink and useless interactions like the "deluxe bubble bath" or pooping horses It's not that i think the added details aren't neat, rather...

      ... knowing that the team was likely overworked, I feel like these are instances that don't make the game THAT much better by being in the game. They simply werent worth the manpower especially when considering... 4) this game is lacking a lot of polish...

      Being a gorgeous game (which rdr2 certainly is) does not mean that it's well polished. I'm constantly dealing with clipping issues, hard crashing, things that simply don't fully load and clunky input design that adds unnecessary frustration...

      Clipping is bound to happen in any game, but these bugs are so glaring and reproducible that they were either ignored, or the qa team was suffering from such bad brain melt that they were unable to approach the game with "fresh eyes" (which is an important skill)...

      When you're pressed for time, and a work zombie, little bugs get missed. Perhaps they use in house cheats to rush, or they didn't methodically think of possibilities, idk. But i really don't like having to leave an area it took 10 minutes to get to because parts didn't load...

      5) after 30 hrs of gameplay, i feel like a great big bulk of that is spent "doing nothing." Travel time is a necessary evil in this game, and the cinematic camera was a great solution to this. BUT not being able to "craft all" at the campfire sucks,

          Sitting for 20 real world minutes while i craft 400 pieces of ammo by mashing A is not fun. Having to hold buttons down for selection is not fun. Having to watch the animal skinning animation is not fun. I can skip the deal in poker tho! So that's worthless...

          I hate this false inflation of a game's length. I can easily spend 100 hrs in this world, and I will. But i don't want to remember that time as "waiting for the plucking animation to stop because i started to get shot mid hunt and now i'm dead"

          6) not being able to interrupt actions like looting or skinning creates unrealistic instances of Arthur Morgan being pelted with bullets instead of getting on his horse. This happens all the time, buttons that do seven different things and in a critical situation, the wrong 1

          All in all rdr2 is a fantastic game. It's just a shame seeing some of the choices they made to implement certain things at the expense of tangible immersion or polish. 8 years of development coulda netted some amazing immersive details, instead we got horse dick. 8/10
