The writing is garbage.

I've finished it on a PS4 Pro, and that's all I have to say, beside those obvious "hunting is fun" or "graphics are great":
The writing is a pile of h*rsesh*t.

Ratings and sales would say otherwise. Your opinion is horsesh*t

looks like some one needs to update wikipedia as clearly the awards it has won it didn't really deserve.

Gameplay is bad. Story up to the islands was good. Moment islands started and story after turned bad.

People thought there'd be no worthy main protagonist after John Marston, and Rockstar managed to make a decent enough story to make people consider Arthur Morgan to be a character worthy of following Marston. Morgan is almost more beloved right now.

You can't do that with a bad story. Your opinion sucks.

These "critics" prizes are meaningless. Period. It's all political-business bullsh*t.
And you may say the name "Morgan" as many times as you want. It won't change the fact that you can't write more than a paragraph about the character the week after you've finished the game.
Acting and overall production is fine, obviously. The writing itself is the one stinking there.

A matter of taste, I guess. Personally, I'm struggling to think of an open world adventure game with writing that even comes close. GTAV is the only one leaping to my mind.
