What do you do for immersion during play?

TLDR: - I play Braves things on youtube with second monitor.

I started this game with 2016 and played over 1000 hours, I'm hooked. I basically played on the side, while watching movies and sports on tv, or reading.

This year I am starting to do other things on my second monitor. As a die-hard Atlanta fan, it's been depressing for a couple years but OOTP helps. It got intense last night playing the dodgers in the NLCS 18'. My team is overachieving and outmatched, facing Kershaw and looking at being down 3-1 in the series. With the lefty cruising in the 6th and us down by 4, I went to the store. On the way home I was thinking about the old braves playoff memories and heartbreaks. So I sat down and fired up some ATL highlights and started watching, then back to playing. After an E3 and wild pitch, I started playing this video so I could hear it as the merry-go-round started and ran his ass out of the game and got the win. Each base hit I was on the edge of my seat. It felt like old times:)
