Another fairly cool, considerate detail that could divide players is now we don't have access to a myriad of weapons at once.

Rather that choosing all sorts of rifles and pistols from a rotary wheel, you leave all your additional equipment on your horse. The idea of prioritising which two weapons you want to hold is another carryover from Max Payne 3, and forces you into really thinking about how you're going to approach a mission or part of the world.

It could go either way - being restrictive with weapons forces playstyles and tactics, but if you find yourself wanting some dynamite to clear out a group of foes in a pinch... you won't be able to.
