The more I hear about this game, more of a shit show it becomes.

Right? My response has been "it's dead to me" for about three press releases now.

It's been dead to me since they dropped talk of expansion stories on gta v.

GTA is dead. What they are calling GTA today, isn't. The multi player trash killed the franchise.

For the vast majority of today's gamers, gta v is all gta has ever been so I'm sure it will sell well but gta v was the weakest gta in the series because they pivoted hard in a direction that has nothing to do with the original concept.

The point was starting from nothing with a story that lead to be top of the areas crime world. The moment they added a never ending competition where no one can ever achieve full domination of the environment, the escapism died.

Whoa. Are well articulated positions still allowed on today's Internet?

Tbf, i enjoyed the shit out of gta online. For about a month.
