Red Dead Redemption 2: 10 Reasons It's Rockstar's Best Open-World Game

5. Horses Are Your Best Friend

Horses have evolved from being a pretty fun form of getting around, to something you become genuinely invested in.

Rather than just being living vehicles, horses in Red Dead Redemption 2 have to be looked after realistically and need to be cleaned and fed. This may sound annoying, but it truly does get you to care for your horse.

Horses also control a lot better, especially when you reach the third bonding level and get to horse drift. It's honestly more fun to ride your horse in Red Dead Redemption 2 than it is to drive a car in GTA.

Saying that, they also act how you'd expect a horse to act, which means at the start they don't always follow orders perfectly and can often run into and away from things. Once again, this may seem a little annoying to put up with, but Red Dead Redemption 2 really is all about the details.

The day that Bojack gets killed, you know there's going to be tears.
