• Improve reflection quality
• Improve draw distance for vegetation
• Improve draw distance for the map
• Improve particles and particle count
• Improve debris variation and count
• Improve physics for liquids like water
• Improve AI behavior
• Improve the game camera to behave more like RDR2
• Improve the Euphoria physics
• Improve random events spawn and spawn rate
• Improve materials and their interactivity
• Improve culling
• Modify the movement animations for smoother transitions
