“Stunning graphics in a very large, beautiful world, such a detailed environment.”

“The graphics options are terrible, making it hard to play.”
“They are very slouchy and overall not aesthetically pleasing at all.”

Gameplay is generally smooth, though some users have noted minor graphical glitches, such as horses clipping through stable doors, which do not detract from the overall experience. Additionally, players express a desire for more variety in customization options, particularly regarding horse reins.
“The gameplay is engaging and offers a variety of mechanics that keep the experience fresh and exciting.”
“The controls are intuitive, making it easy to jump right in and enjoy the game without a steep learning curve.”
“The world is beautifully designed, and the gameplay encourages exploration and interaction with the environment.”
“Also, it might be because it's not the finished version yet, but sometimes the horse's rear goes through the closed stable door when it turns around. It doesn't negatively impact the gameplay experience, but it's a bit weird.”
“Of course, none of that impacts the gameplay either, but I do wish I could at least get one black rein, considering the amount of very similar looking brown ones available.”
