i cant help but imagine if they had made half the game with twice as much freedom in how to interact with it. each mission boils down to little but a narrow corridor, left trigger right trigger, left trigger right trigger. rarely, if ever, being encouraged to engage with the rest of the mechanics besides shooting.

the story is fine, but bogged down by a few dozen hours of gameplay for a grand total of 30 minutes of character development.

the only thing this game brings to the table over any of the best western cinematic and literary works is the enormity of the world this capitalist hyperengine of human misery known as rockstar birthed. i do certainly agree with the thought that these sort of half billion dollar projects are some of the worst things ever to hit gaming,

ill finish this review later, love you.
