I'm starting to admit that probably i will have to eat my words with this game. The gunplay is still average and the more the game distances itself from shootings the better, but everything else is a 10....audiovisuals, story and characters presentation, open world game design, content, physics, .... After playing some more you start accepting its gameplay mechanics and you start focusing in the world and...man this world is beautiful and huge, full of interesting things that come to you organically if you play carefully with the correct mindset. It really makes you feel you're living for survival in the "old west". I love how the game makes it hard to you to make the "good" decision all the time showing you how difficult is to be a good person when everything is against you, and i will admit is good fun being bad sometimes....XD.
It's still not a 10 for me, but this game is becoming one of my favorite games this gen quickly...So, if in the end it becomes my favorite game this gen i will glady eat the biggest crow because of my words. |
Told ya ;D. I'm in the same boat as you though, I don't no how they managed to come this close to perfection and fuck it up on things that they had nailed in GTA5 and RDR years ago. The wanted system, the weapon scaling, the story not meshing well with the pace and flow of the rest of the open world experience, etc. They are such few complaints tbh but they are so vital to the experience that it holds the game back and unlike other great games with flaws they are still hard to ignore further into the game This could have been a GoTG for me if it wasn't held back by the little things.

We'll end rating this game the same at this pace, even if we started from opposite sides...XD. I want to give my final impression when the game is over, but considering i'm still on ch.2, there's a lot left to do and discover yet.
But it seems it will end alongside God of War, The Witcher III, Horizon Zero Dawn, Bloodborne and Uncharted 4 as my games of the generation (i only own a PS4 by the way).
