And I hate it. The movement around the world is SO slow and I hate the controls too. We just moved camp after the snowy stater area and I went into town for the first time and I just have no desire to play this game again. Does it get better? Am I missing something?

The game looks beautiful and that is a major plus, but the controls and movement and inventory system just suck for me. I haven’t enjoyed the small amount of combat so far either. The system of 8 different bars and cores for your horse and everything else just seems arbitrarily complex.

I’m guessing this is just a great game that just isn’t for me, but before I uninstall it, I wanted to ask if anyone had some tips or pointers or something.

Did anyone else have this kind of reaction and grow to like/love it?

Thanks for any comments!

Edit: Thanks for all the comments! Many great tips for me to endure and hopefully grow to like/love it. Many others felt the same tediousness that I felt.

The comments have exploded and I can’t get to them all now, but will try to answer later. In the time it took me to answer 11 comments, I had 27 more waiting!

Edit 2: I’m not sure that this game is for me. I might try to push forward more to get to Chapter 2 and see if it gets better.

Edit 3: thanks for all the comments! I won’t be able to respond to everybody as there are a few hundred comments now.

To sum up, many people agreed with me that the game is too slow and tedious for them.

Others said I should give it up to Chapter 2 or 3 as it picks up.

And many others said I’m just bat shit crazy for not enjoying this masterpiece.

To each their own! Everyone play and enjoy your games!
