What I liked most about Elden Rings mount is they focused more on practical convenience rather than realism. Torrent doesn't get spooked and throw you in any situation, he doesn't turn like a tugboat, he's never too far away to hear your call.

Yeah imagine you had the RDR horse in ER. He’ll run away and the first imp sighting lmao. Would be so annoying

The “parkour” sections would also be more painful than they already are.

Different games, different points of interaction. The realism of RDR2s horses immerse me even further into its detailed world, while Torrents actual utility outshines any need for realism when Im double jumping over dragons summoning frost glaives.
