I know it's hard. I know some gamers need to be funneled in a certain direction. I know reading sucks. I know it's tempting to go on YouTube and see what to do next.
This isn't that kind of game. Explore, gather things, go wherever you feel like and fight whatever you feel like fighting. You'll end up in the right place.
I do recommend making "x" the dash button, though. And if you haven't bonded with your horse, find a better one. You'll eventually find one that does what you want. You'll spend most of the game alone and on foot. You may want to have a horse (or even Wolf Link) by your side but the bulk of your journey will be solo. Enjoy it.
