This is very satisfying. You blast one, it catches on fire and starts a chain and they go ape shit crazy and trample everything in their path. Use the environment to cut others off from moving out of the way and watch them get ran over. I found myself doing this a lot just to see how much chaos I could cause.

The arrows don't seem to curve at all. Honestly was expecting more of aim assist than the game gives you. I was at a camp and cleaned up pretty well then got over confident and went for a head shot, dude turned last second and arrow barely missed him. Had to switch up my entire method of taking everyone out because I screwed up on a shot I thought would be super easy. Feels like taking out large groups here is slightly more difficult than something like FarCry.

He's watching videos of the game and feeling a certain way about it but like most things unless you try it you really don't know. This game feels really good man. I'm almost burnt on open world games because a lot of the times they feel so empty. They made a really great one here.
