Although the game's story suffered the old "do this or your family gets it" story it was dealt with nicely.
Playing as a character who's trying to leave his criminal past behind (again, another rinse & recycle) the plot does include some nice closure to the protagonists past & some interesting characters to sell plenty of side quests through the 'stranger' options.
A vast open world experience with some fantastic detail was a nice input, but I felt that although it's set in the old west, definitely should have had more areas to visit/explore, as it lacked this, it did at times feel empty (through personal experience).
The short relationships between the characters felt unnecessary which if hadn't have happened would have made up for this rather empty sand box.
Definitely not a bad experience overall, but was happy with the main plots ending not having the "villain" explain in mind numbing detail why as it was fairly obvious but was also quite a weak ending at that, would've been better to have a shoot out before being caught off guard.
Still, I recommend this to anyone with a GTA addiction (that's why I'm recommending it to my brother).
