An absolutely monumental, almost unbelievable achievement.

Not without it's flaws (it's very long, some side quests aren't great and way too many mini-games/QTE stuff are the biggest issues, the length your mileage may vary but it did feel it's length by the end) but my god it's ridiculous that this even exists.

Need a break before I do hard more and get the platinum trophy but wow.

I bought this on release day, got as far as the very start of Saint Denis then just never bothered to go any further despite enjoying it.

Over the past week or so I decided it was time to finally beat this and god damn I was absolutely gripped throughout. I knew of the one major "spoiler" that happens even though it was fairly obvious after a certain mission what was gonna happen.

Some of the mechanics were frustrating to deal with mainly just due to tedium which I get was a creative choice but doesn't make it any more fun.

The story is the selling point here and yeah, wonderful. Arthur Morgan is an amazing character to play as and the epilogue(s) were a nice change of pace after a hectic finale. Now to replay RDR at some point.
