He nails the problem with this game here. It's realistic to the point where it's unnecessary and gets in the way of enjoyment. Video games should sacrifice realism for convenience and enjoyment not the other way around. You shouldn't have a game making players do unnecessary things that aren't fun just to be realistic. Video games don't really need to be realistic in the first place. They are products that exist solely to entertain after all.

If I have to feed my character for realism when why not make me have to make him go to the bathroom as well? Why does the realism end at me just having to feed him? Why not have him put his pants on one leg at a time instead of have his clothing instantly pop onto him from a selection screen? It's weird how they pick and choose what they force you to do and not do in a game that ultimately isn't realistic for their brand of selective realism that mostly comes across as tedious.

People will give the game a pass for this but in my eyes it's reason along this game shouldn't have a 97 or whatever on Metacritic. This selective forced realism to the determent of the game is a huge flaw and maybe people can forgive the game for it but it's still a flaw. That and the way the character controls.

This is GTA IV all over again when it comes to review scores but usually Rockstar games get that treatment. Their flaws get swept under a rug so reviewers can heap praise on them.

Criticize a western rpg game for being too realistic brehs...:what:

Ask why not let me take a shyt in a game brehs...:what:

If R* dropped the same game but set in Japan with a final fakkitry boyband tranny crew I get the feeling you would love it...

I stopped contributing when I saw how little everyone else was putting in, there's nothing worse than being gone for a few days and when you come back there's $1 in the pot and no food or ammo.

Ran into some poor hobo who was cooking a measly squirrel for dinner...

:mjcry:

Felt bad for breh so I hunted down a succulent deer and dropped it off at his struggle campsite.

He made some slick comment about how he wasn’t the sociable type, so I drowned him, but I still feel like a did a good deed...

:obama:

Doesn't seem that different from Zelda with regards to clothing/ eating and whatnot. I'd chuck it under "IMURZHON".

I'm petting my horse in the swamps & I hear a guy yelling as he rides up slowly on his horse and falls over right in front of me. Says he's ill and needs help. I pick the poor b*stard up and put him on my horse. We ride into Saint Denis to look for the doctor. Dude is covered in blood and crying about how he's about to die. We get to the doc and the doc rushes us in to the back room. I put him in the chair and doc says his arm is infected real bad and he will live as long as he amputates the arm. Doc puts dude to sleep then picks up a saw and chops homies arm off :ohhh: Drops it off in a bucket :mjlol:

So I got into some bad shootout in Valentine with lawmen because I looted a horse :mjlol:.

Someone saw me digging through a satchel so I roughed him up only for another witness to run to to law from him witnessing an assault. I accidentally killed the first guy, chased after this new snitch and while lassoing him up someone else goes to spill the beans. Now I'm hauling ass shooting horses on foot and after a long chase end up somewhere around a river down a steep cliff.

It's night time, I said fukk this good guy shyt and start murking anyone I see coming through. I finally get back up the mountain, I see a barn with a dog outside. I try creeping and the dog start barking. I go inside the barn through the window, steal some stuff and when I hop out some dude standing right outside the window with a pistol pointed at me ready to duel. Of course, I won that duel, killed the dog with my knife and threw his body off the side of the mountain. :win:
