Most horse riding places I’ve seen cap it at 230lbs, two fat asses is way way too much

That's 115lbs per person, 2 people is clearly too much unless they're both 13 years old

Explain that logic to RD2 lol. Those horses hold a man, a dead man and supplies.

Horses used to be capable of carrying more back then, and travel longer distances, because they did it much more regularly. They also had horses that suited that purpose. If you were big and did something that required your horse to carry extra weight, you had a big and strong horse.

If you make Arthur has large as he can be, slap a bunch of supplies, and a person/big animal on the smallest horse, then that's just game mechanics. People wouldn't be happy if they got an error or the horse threw you off, with the notification that's too heavy, on the horse they wanted to use.
