WTF

When I read about all of the script kiddies and hackers making the gameplay impossible, I had no idea what they could possibly mean until I got into the game myself. At least 2/3's of my gameplay is ruined by prison spawning or random explosions or being teleported into the middle of nowhere or joy killed or hunted like a wild animal by a lvl 300 monster...

It really makes the game completely unplayable, insanely sad.

game so ass, wouldnt recommend, abandoned/10

i love randomly killing my horsie

So, let me get this straight. I like the game. Seriously, it has cool mechanics and immersive and enjoyable gameplay. BUT! All of this will be available to you ONLY through a super tedious grind. The game does NOT respect your time AT ALL. To put it in perspective: one of the first things you will be introduced to is the traversing tool. It's a horse. And the default horse, well, how do I put it. It SUCKS A*S. It is slow, it is running out of stamina faster than an 80yo alcoholic cowboy and I hated every single minute of sitting on it. My friends, who I mostly play the game with, didn't find this a problem. In fact, I started to question my own sanity, because the horse pissed me off that much. But I was tuned to get a better one, and so I did.
Now we can go back to the "Game not respecting your time" argument. How many hours did I spend to grind for this absolutely needed thing? At around 17. If you are familiar with the game or just lucky, you can do it in about 10-12 hours. Now it's up to you to decide if it is a lot or not, but in my humble opinion, it is. The Thing is, the grind only starts here. You need to buy: decent weapons of different sorts, decent horse equipment, decent cosmetics (if you are that type of guy), and much more. But you also need to spend gold, and you need to buy licenses for collector role, bounty hunting role, trading role, and so on, you get my point.
And yes, I UNDERSTAND that this is a game's initial feature, but the thing is, I was going into the game with the wrong expectations. Do NOT fool yourself with a different setting, it is just a slightly lighter version of GTA Online in terms of a grinding aspect.
With all that in mind, do I recommend the game, despite my negative attitude early on? Yes. Especially if you have friends to play with. The game in itself is exceptionally beautiful, I was having a blast admiring the views of wild prairies, deserts, jungles, swamps, and cities. The mechanics are super enjoyable, the weight of the horse, the character controls, and the shooting are quite detailed and unique. If you like to challenge other players, there are countless modes, in which you can participate in. Co-op? Not to worry, there are dozens of different missions to play with randoms. Cheaters? Well, where don't we have them? Aside from minor annoyances, they don't really turn you away from the game, but I don't have a lot of hours played. So try this thing out. It's money and time well spent.

Games really fun, kinda sad they stopped the updates.

Great game, but you need to know what you are doing, so be prepared to take things slowly, at first!
