I've barely even started, but my jaw simply continues to drop every minute within this game. Painstakingly crafted doesn't even come close to describing it. Really enjoying the slow burn to the opening segment, with the multiple mechanics and activities gradually being introduced, and more importantly, introducing you to every member of the gang.
The dynamic context-sensitive controls brings so much more nuance to every situation. The only downside to this is that you have to be both quick and careful with these selections during tense moments. But I certainly wouldn't change it. It has made the world, and you're part in it, feel really alive, immersive and interactive.
Unlike with vehicles in GTA, the bonding mechanics which they have introduced have already made me feel for my horse, needing to be a little more aware and careful during my traversal.
Just blown away so far.
