Man, I really want to love this game, but everything inside is so fucking dated and dragged out. Story is great but so stretched. Open world is beautiful but crossing it is painful (why no jump). Mini-games are core of the spirit of the game but they're all so fucking tedious and unbalanced. Everything is so slow and clunky. Combat is very interesting but has massive flaws (why no iframes on dodge ????). Also, open world activities are really bad past the first zone. And losing the mount to re-learn it everytime, oh god.

Feels like there is a lot of passion on this remake, but it's undermined by a lot of lazy design and dated ideas.
