We saw a tiny screen, but it looks like one of the most ridiculously pretty games ever.

But I think that the whole "the horse moves by itself" will cause TONS OF BITCHING.

Why?  It's an inteligent being.

Makes sense.  You just basically tap forward or backwards to increase or slow down the speed, much like in real life.  You stear obviously if you want to, but otherwise it shoudl run in the general direction you have it running without running into a wall or a tree.  Meanwhile you can worry about fighting or looking at map or messing with inventory or whatever.

I'm glad the horse isn't 100% player controlled.

I know, and I like it. I think SotC had something similar, because I swear Aggro would avoid shit during the 10th colossus.

But you know the internet. "Dumbing down" is an expression we'll hear a lot over this mechanic.
