Yeah they definitely got quality writers and are letting them work their magic without the usual gamer Corp restrictions. I usually struggle to get any immersion in any entertainment media I consuuuuuuume, but I noticed as each chapter passed I actually started to feel like I was with Arthur every step of the way. From watching the rain piss down from under the tent, to sluffing through knee deep snow on the mountains trying not to slip and eat shit just to get to the top and drink in the view of the valley below.

I'd venture to say that because Rockstar has a literal cash cow they can milk for liquid gold in the form of GTA online they can actually afford to justify the alternative operating plan in their games manufacturing department.
