Can we just take a moment to acknowledge just how far away this horse actually was. During the GameCube era video game studios weren’t afraid to say that they would put a horse far away in a game and actually deliver that.
These days it’s all half-promises with pre order trailers hinting at far away horses. But when it’s time to deliver all we get is ‘our servers were overwhelmed by the huge numbers of players logging in, so we have to temporarily put the horse right in front of your face - we promise we will fix it soon!’
The fix never comes, the horse is never far away.
I miss the old days, it was a different time back then.
