Open-World Games That Let Players Break the Story

Many fantastic games let you stray from the main story, letting you change, tweak, or even completely bypass it. You can often return later, stronger and more prepared, after exploring everything else the game has to offer. This freedom makes the game world much more immersive and fun, because you’re not locked into a single way of playing.
