Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
There’s also a kind of overarching plot to the game, which I’d say isn’t as interesting, although it takes an interesting turn near the end.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
And while I do know lots of people prefer to watch others playing, be it a gameplay on youtube or a friend going through it, if interested I really recommend going through it alone and blind for your first experience.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The graphics are very nostalgic and most of the websites you visit in the game, have their own soundtrack.

lots to explore, but definitely has its pros and cons because it can be easy to get lost, too. music is great. visuals are great. crashed a few times (like, apart from the intended ones) but didn't actually lose any data so whatever. maybe the real outlaw was the friends we made along the way. or something.
