When picking up a carcass. You really need a cancel button if you accidently punched the skin button

Yes and no.  Depends on what you like and your tolerance for bugs.  For me it is fun, but I am glad I did not pay full price.

 

• The pace is slow.  It is more of a game for completionists and people that like exploring/completing side-quests/challenges.  For people like that/us it is fun.
• It is also a game for people that enjoy using guides/youtube videos to learn the game.  There is far too much content that is not explained properly by the game if you hate guides/videos.
• It is full of bugs and flawed designs that the devs seem to have no interest in fixing.  The UI and menus are horrid for those expecting a PC experience, they are mostly on-par for consoles.

Although it is not the same, I suggest buying Red Dead Online ($5 at this time) and if you decide that the overall game is fun enough then you consider buying the Story mode for $40.   Online and Story are quite different but are still the same at the core (same map, same controls, same overall mechanics).  Just remember that Online has quite a few hackers and griefers, but there are ways to mostly avoid them (like playing in Defensive mode) thus making them a minor nuisance instead of a problem.  Also, DO NOT buy gold with money, earn it as you play.  And DO NOT buy any of the roles unless they are on sale/discount.

That's good but I'm asking about Read Dead not Red Dead

in all my playtime, I've only done that like 3 times tops, so they really don't
