![a screenshot of various sections from a script for a video essay.
it begins with "in contrast with [censored], so bad that the franchise never did it again afterwards. the game definitely has activities to do in the world, even if they tend to be a bit far apart. you can fish, you can cook, you can visit historical landmarks..."
it continues with "[censored] Well, you can ride your horse... or just rawdog it. legs in the air, one foot after the other, running like your life depends on it. it's so boring and empty that you can literally just have your character ride automatically without your inpuyt. you don't even have to play."
followed by "[censored], you cans tack as many pancakes as you want, you can make your sweet breakfast gameplay tower massive, but chances are you're gonna need some syrup to keep it together, some butter to make it less dry... some gulye to make it cohesive."
"you know what's also technically an Open World game? Civilization. [large censored chunk] *sigh* yeah it['s a loose fit but stick with me here alright?"
a large [censored] chunk is followed by a smaller one, and the final paragraph:
"you can simply walk, of course. or you can tame your own personal horse! you can glide across the map, and you can even give yourself extra height! you can shield surf! you can stasis launch! you can... shieldbounce. you can uh, tilt... yourself? you can, oh boy, you can bow lift smuffle..."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:dvz7njpbiv26qfatitu4n3lz/bafkreihvvofr75pkmi7qbzxiisvqrkjlwsryop2yiynu2bqjqr6bcb7uda)
