Cute in concept, kind of annoying in execution. Vanilla Red Dead wore me down into loving it through the strength of its writing, and this chooses to play things a bit more schlocky to match the tone of the conceit. It's not necessarily a bad idea, but I've never really found myself gelling with Rockstar's sense of humor so my enjoyment here was more sporadic than I would have liked. There's a novelty to re-exploring the world with the new coat of horror paint on it and seeing all the new content they've added to the world - I just don't really think it's an experience for my tastes at the end of the day.
