I found it to be so immersive, that the large map size was a bonus to me. I wanted to see it all, and by god I did. I have done every single thing on that game.

I found it even more immersive by camping when it got dark out, cooking to eat, and then going to bed. When I woke in the daylight, I would sit there and have Arthur drink a cup of joe, break down the camp, and continue on with my journey to wherever.

Now I want to play it all over again for a fifth time. >:(

I've not enjoyed single player, Arthur is only allowed to be a cunt for story reasons, the moment I'm doing it I get penalised. It's not bad but it's... Eh. At least it was only $30 on sale.

Ah, I’m sorry you didn’t get to enjoy it! It is my favorite game of all time, so that’s sad to hear.

Still got my money's worth, about 10hrs in single player, although a lot of fucking about that certainly wasn't productive, mostly just been around valentine and the place to the east. A bit more than that online.
