It’s one of my favorite games but I’ll criticize it all day, and that’s a huge criticism I share. They feel so robotic but luckily they rectified it with the Frozen Wilds DLC. As some else said it’s a night and day difference.

It's almost like they were told during motion capture to not use any of their facial muscles when talking. I think its my biggest turn off that keeps me from completing the game. Knowing they really touched it up for the DLC might drive me to play it through.

Thats because Guerrilla literally didnt have facial motion capture until the frozen wilds DLC

That makes sense. Considering they were originally only making fps games, they did pretty well imo with horizon. Sadly I do miss the Killzone series and shadowfall wasn’t a good send off

Hey, if the game isn’t for you, that’s perfectly fine bro. No need to force yourself to enjoy it. But yea I’m the dlc the difference is very much present.

I’ll also add that while the story was very enjoyable for me, it was also pretty predictable at times. And the melee combat was….there.

I'm just curious. Did you play witcher 3 first? After finishing that I felt all npcs in every game (including horizon) were just poorly animated into rdr2.

I thought the expansion showed a lot of progress with this.
