I'm on PS5 and still have the now-defunct LLJK tag from when I was playing GTAO on my PS3 lol Also I decided to try and do the heists in chronological order and am immediately reminded of why I stopped playing for years, why on earth do even the setups require 4 players, I can literally just steal a prison bus myself jfc

Because the OG Heists, like most other content in GTAO, is disrespectful of the player's time and is subtly encouraging shark card purchase

Does GTA5 get to be more fun at some point? It's kind of boring early on.

I remember instantly having at least some degree of fun with GTA: San Andreas, even during those annoying tutorial missions, but the little time I ended up spending with GTA 5 was just a slog, through and through. Does the game become more engrossing later on? I don't think I like any of the main characters!

Franklin is kinda bland at first (though Lamar is great), and Michael has the whole “I’m rich, I’m miserable!!” schtick going on early too. They both get better later, but imo at least play until you start getting Trevor missions as he’s instantly more entertaining than the other two. Trevor appears after the first heist, so probably about 10 missions in I think.

Honestly I think Franklin is the only relatable character. I get Trevor as a sort of unrestrained impulse cartoon character but God I hate Michael through and through.

I love GTAV, but its probably the series at its most self-aware and metatextual so coming to it without the entire sordid franchise history probably lessens the impact. The three protagonists are a specific archetype of former GTA games: the usual up-and-coming young criminal, how the protagonists life would turn out after they successfully retired, and what a person who acts like the players do while loving around in the open would actually be like. They also let you know upfront that the whole thing is going to be ironic with Lamar spelling out the overused GTA mission cycle of work for someone -> they betray you -> kill them which is in pretty stark contrast to the depressing crime drama prestige TV thing that Nico Bellic had going on. Curious to see if they try to balance the two extremes a little more in VI or just keep the 'parody within a parody' thing going.

If the trailer is any indication we can look forward to Florida Man jokes and commentary on social media trends that’s about five years past it’s sell-by date because modern games take so long to make

She looks and sounds exactly like Lucia in the trailer, did some minor voice work for GTA Online, and she told some podcast that she was currently working on something huge and couldn’t talk about - when the host pressed her on whether it was a movie, tv show etc, she was like nah I really really can’t talk about it.

mp5 posted:Fun is subjective playboy I hear yah. While I've played open world games in the past.....I'm having a bit of trouble getting into this aspect right now. Driving around and exploring the city (which is impressive as all hell......even ten years after it came out) is cool......but it adds a whole lot of extra time just getting from place to place. I get that during a mission....it makes sense to have to drive to your objective.....but I wish I was able to open up a list of available missions and just start them rather than driving to and finding them on the map. Several times I've driven to a mission to find out I have the wrong PC. Or I get a prompt that I'm not dressed correctly. webmeister posted:Franklin is kinda bland at first (though Lamar is great), and Michael has the whole “I’m rich, I’m miserable!!” schtick going on early too.

I don't necessarily have any issues with the storylines. It is pretty awesome to be able to flip between multiple PCs. And yeah.....I have gotten the first heist mission started. Definitely want to get Trevor as a PC before really deciding how much time I'm going to invest in the game. It really is impressive....it just hasn't grabbed my attention like I thought it would.

RestingB1tchFace posted:Several times I've driven to a mission to find out I have the wrong PC. Or I get a prompt that I'm not dressed correctly. The map markers are colour coded for each character. Franklin is green, Michael is blue, Trevor is orange. The icons are also larger if you’re playing as the relevant character. There’s only a handful of missions where you need a specific outfit, and it usually tells you in advance, though from memory I think casing the jewellery store needs a “smart” outfit or something which is a bit vague.

You have to wear a suit to case the jewelry store but I think that's the absolute one time in the game where that happens lol Half the time Michael is already in a suit when you switch to him

I never engaged with the dress up mechanics by choice except for putting Michael in the dumb robes for the Epsilon mission chain or whenever Trevor turned up in just his underwear because that’s no way to wander around in the desert at night. I can’t remember having to put anything specific on except for the one mission to dress nice for the movie premier.

I had some problems with it in 2013 and it's aged poorly since. While there are some cool setpiece missions, there's also a lot more that is unfun or worse. It's totally valid to nope out of it, imo gtao was fun because we made it fun, but gta sp is take it or leave it and there's a lot of reasons to leave it.

There are some good QOL changes made in GTA:O, such as not flying through the windshield and dying if you hit something at more than 25 mph and being able to buy clothes at any clothes store.

I was dicking around with the renovate option to put a bigger safe in my salvage yard and decided to see if it would let you upgrade to the non-beater truck but it only lets you pay full price. So I unselected the truck and added the safe, only to find that when I finished it had renovated my salvage yard by taking away my truck entirely since I guess didn’t reselect the beater, putting me like 400k in the hole to have to buy another truck. Cool system!

Coincidentally, that is how much you'd make with this week's tow yard bonus over 16 hour of playtime. You could try to enter a ticket with R*.
