I'm tired of GTA (discuss.tchncs.de)

I'm so tired of GTA.

I finished Vice City and it was great.

GTA IV didn't click with me at all, I hated the characters and the endless busywork.

GTA V was considerably better, but I never got around to finish it, I just moved on to other things.

And now the ridiculous hype for GTA VI.

I mean I get it, it's a very polished product, maybe the most polished game ever. But I'm just so tired of it. I like driving, I like shooting, I like adult themes and humor, but it's the same every damn time. And it seems to get more contemporary with each iteration. I'm not from the US and I'm not that invested in whatever is happening there. GTA looks to be 110% focused on increasingly specific North American societal issues, judging from the trailer. I'm not into it, which isn't a problem in itself, but the endless bombardment with the hype on every conceivable channel is grinding my nerves.

I know I can't change it, just needed to vent for a minute.

Enjoy GTA VI, I'm sure it will look amazing and set standards for quality and polish. I'll enjoy a gameplay trailer and hopefully some silence once the initial rush is over.

GTA v was pretty darn good! I mean it still going on and has been one of the most successful games. I can’t wait for GTA VI ! I think it’ll be different eat after so much time lol

It's only the multiplayer that still makes them money. However every time I tried it it was full of cheaters, endless waiting in lobbies and pay to win where you have to pay real money to get any good items.

Custom servers are where it's at, based on what I've heard, but I've never tried those.
