Riding Horses In The Last Of Us 2 Feels Great, Here’s Why

The Last of Us Part 2 is a big, big game that excels at the little things: the way Joel raises his hand to block sunlight from his eyes, or the way Ellie marks up a map of downtown Seattle with a Sharpie. Another killer small touch is the haptic feedback—the rumble you feel in…
