  • GTA 5 was boring as fuck, one of the only games I would genuinely consider overhyped. Usually when I don't like a popular game I can see the appeal of it for other people, but there is fuck all to actually do in GTA 5. Yeah, you can drive around and shoot things, but the shooting is pretty bland and there's no reason at all to get into random gunfights. The driving is decent, but if I wanted to play a driving game, then I would play Forza or something. There's character customisation, but the outfits are extremely limited and boring, mostly just variations of shirts and pants, there's minigames like darts for some reason, there's fake social media and an in-game phone camera, but there is no point to doing anything. Nothing feels satsifying. I just fuck about for half an hour then get bored. The in-game economy is dogshit, you go from having nothing to everything extremely quickly and money very quickly becomes meaningless, so there's no goals to strive for. Like I can't stress enough how there is no point to getting more money, because all you can buy is guns which kill people with the same effectiveness as most other guns, cars to customise, and properties to get more money so you can buy more properties. Red dead 2 was the exact same, a few hours in money becomes meaningless because the Valentine bank robbery will set you up for life, and that's in the first third of the game. There are no more upgrades to be bought, all you can buy is beans. It gets a pass for having a great story and letting me ride on and rob trains, GTA 5 is just nothing.

    anyway yeah i probably wont get gta6

    • gotta disagree with you on rdr2. the treasure hunting and animal hunting, and klan hunting were fun for me. there are lots of little quests & Easter eggs to discover, often with interesting characters.

      • yeah actually i do like the rdr2 open world a lot more than gta5. i like rdr2 in general a lot more than gta5, its a far better open world, but still far from the gold standard. the shooting is too basic to be a primary mechanic, that's my biggest issue with that game, but i really enjoy pretty much everything else. especially dressing up my sad dying cowboy in a fun flirty outfit

      • Yeah I mean, I liked rdr2, but I also remember that this game was made with the labour of people who worked over 100 hour per week

    • Completely agree. GTA4 not being on PS4 is a crime.

  • It will be delayed again. And when it finally does release it will be a buggy unfinished mess that won't run well even on the top of the line hardware.

    It's Cyberpunk 2077 all over again

  • what no way

    what do you mean the game with only one trailer and nothing else is delayed?

    rambling here but since ps5s can be jailbroken, I wonder if it’s possible for someone to dump a pkg file (idk how to word sorry I’m bad at it) of the game so we could download it for free, unless they do some bullshit like making the game require the latest update

  • I haven't played a GTA game since vice city.

    Idk I was already tired of the formula way back then.

    • I'm the same, but for GTA 3.

    • They've become way more polished games (by exploiting more and more labor) despite the basic formula being the same. You couldn't swim until San Andreas and they didn't even get good at combat mechanics until 4. give a younger person the original Vice City and they'll say it's unplayable. It's like trying to play Morrowind with its tanky controls and random missing mechanics when you're used to Skyrim.

      • they didn't even get good at combat mechanics until 4

        Are they actually good? The combat mechanics still suck in red dead redemption 2, which came out a decade later
