A polished, bug-free experience.

Bugs can ruin the immersion immediately. Crashes, lost saves, and other critical issues will prevent most of your game being played.

Immersion? Stability and little details helping the atmosphere... I loved the singleplayer of Red Dead redemption 2 but online was a pure mess for me. Every time you would get immersed while hunting or so the game crashed on me. Every freakin 1-2hours it crashed...
