the most overrated Grand Theft Auto game

It has a hundred features more than grand tranny auto v.

>>713586686
like what?

>>713586686
too bad there's nothing to spend your money on in 4 but clothes and ammo

>>713586548 (OP)
Enough about GTA5 though

>>713586548 (OP)
Its absolute trash honestly. I never enjoyed playing it. Would rather go through V again and I hate gta 5, especially Trevor

>>713586686
V sucked too

I don't understand how V's multiplayer made so much money. It's literally the worst version of an MMO I've ever played. It's so blatantly greedy that I'm convinced it's mostly just knuckle dragging negros and stoned normies that actually play this shit. I bought it for $5 and I still feel like I got ripped off.

The worst thing about it is that it overemphasized melodrama over gameplay which is exactly what Saint's Row capitalized on and built a fairly successful franchise out of. GTA V kind of followed the same route but quickly turned to soulless monetization as a third option, however GTA IV is probably not overrated anywhere but here where contrarians run rampant.

>>713587060
no

>>713587012
it was pretty fun before the landslide, having your own character meant you were more invested in the progression
when they pushed those changes it was already greatly popular, so it sustained itself on a vicious cycle of its own popularity

>>713586548 (OP)
Hate d4, hated 5, very safe to say i'll hate 6. I know i'm in the minority but goddamn do I hate these newer rockstar games like red dead redemption. That stupid fucking clunky ass slow walk/turn that all these games have.

>>713587086
its not even melodrama, the plot of iv is terrible

>>713587134
nmp

>>713586548 (OP)
That's not V

>>713586686
fpbp, OP is a faggot who sucks cocks

>>713586787
>>713586878
>>713587573
V is great.

>>713586548 (OP)
How can it be overrated? Only I like GTA4.

>>713586548 (OP)
easily

>>713586548 (OP)
GTA 4 was the first GTA game with no GTA 3 DNA in it, making it the best game in the series. 3 was a mistake. Hell simulator with senseless violence.

>>713587625
bad game cope

>>713586548 (OP)
But is Cyberpunk 2077 better?

>>713586548 (OP)
I have no idea why some people hate it so much.
It's literally the same as every other GTA.
Drive around and fucking shoot people.

>>713587879
GTA 3 DNA was what carried the series. It all went downhill with GTA 4.

>>713587906
Wrong thread for this but in my opinion, in the same way Witcher 3 was just Skyrim but "better" (more combat gameplay mechanics, more sidequests, tons of collectathon bullshit, kinda forced "player-character exists in the narrative this way" railroading, all things that make it more gamey), Cyberpunk is the same thing for Fallout 4. For all the promised revolutionary design, it really just felt like an amalgamation of other successful games rather than an original thing.

>>713586548 (OP)
I hate the ragdolling in GTA4. Everyone praises it, but it's way too slow. Whenever you ragdoll, it feels like you on an lunar ice skating rink. Gravity and friction are both less than half what they should have been.

>>713587892
>t. indian streetshitter

>>713587953
the story takes itself way too seriously, and its not even good

>>713586548 (OP)
NGL, I've never made it through a couple hours of this one. Driving is so fucking dogshit, I can't stand playing it.
IIRC it used to have some kind of major problem with its optimization/resource usage that you needed some kind of fuckery to work out too, at least on PC. Can't imagine that's much of a problem nowadays though.

>>713588454
which is why they removed it, v fixed everything iv messed up

>>713588656
And then rdr2 brought it back
Rockstar ruined rdr2 with it

>>713586548 (OP)
Not overrated, just different.
Pretty sure it's the first kinda down-to-earth game since gta3
No miniguns, no jetpacks, no flamethrowers etc.
Also despite so many new ideas, there's a genuine lot missing compared to SA that came before.
Nothing to spend money on, no houses to buy, no cars to own etc.

>>713588506
You had to be there. Back then 99% games were go kill everyone and win.

>>713589170
heavy rain came out in 2010

>>713589023
the fundamental problem is the complete dissonance between the story and the world, the former dragging down the latter
yet when the game is being praised, it is often for that same story

>>713587012
>time gated progression and forced tardwrangling to actually get anyway
>players speed run easy missions to bypass this bullshit
>nerf said method into the ground
>massively inflate the value of everything to coincide with measly payouts from playing the game like a second life
>tfw GTAO2 has the last ten years worth of metrics to make this process even more jewish than their last attempt
On the plus side mods might be able to fix it provided Take2 doesn't go full scorched earth for trying to sidestep their psychologist approved bullshit.

Strange i always read that game was shit, for me its best part, i love ending its really dark

>>713587657
nope

>>713586686
Fpbp

>>713587657
yep

I'll admit that the inclusion of a phone was a game changer at the time

>>713589532
unironically

>>713587012
The world's full of normies who'll jump on a bandwagon. Of course retards are gonna extensively play gta online because of le hecking peer pressure.

>>713594103
funny because thats exactly how iv became so overrated

>>713587012
what mmo you spastic. The game is designed to roam around and fuck around with other players, to do missions together, heists, racing, and hundreds of other game modes. It IS fun, and the "greed" you talk about is all in your head. I never payed a cent in the game but I had lots of fun with friends back in the day. Yall hating for the sake of hate.

Most overrated GTA is unironically Vice City. Yea it has good voice acting, radio but missions suck ass. Vice City looks terrible too.
IV is a great game, better than V for sure. Not quite San Andreas level tho.

>>713586686
Like killing pigeons and going bowling?

>>713595036
v succeeded in everything iv failed at, its the purest form of improvement

>>713586548 (OP)
The one thing I don't understand about IV is why it forces me to empathize with characters I don't care about. I didn't care about Packie and his stupid inbred potato eating family. Oh sure, you let me fuck your sister, that would've been nice if I were to care about her. Hell, every single fucking playthrough I let her die because there are so many women you can choose from in this game, one of which is a backstabbing glowie.

>>713588104
Too gamey.
>>713595036
Great soundtrack, but tue game can be beaten in a single day.

>>713595335
the entire story is written around bruteforcing consequence, there is no progression or narrative

>>713595310
But there were major downgrades in V. Physics engine is complete trash compared to IV, cars all drive the same. NPC's are much worse too

>>713595638
>cars all drive the same
So like IV?

>>713594194
Retard alert

>>713595638
they toned down the "physics" because they took away from gameplay and were unrealistic regardless
same for the cars, they realised its just not good game design to make a complete chore out of core gameplay elements

its not a downgrade, more "realistic" does not mean more better

>>713594868
>The game is designed to roam around and fuck around with other players, to do missions together, heists, racing, and hundreds of other game modes.
So you would say it's a massive multiplayer online game?

>>713595036
>but missions suck ass.
VC missions are at the very least better than V missions

>>713595997
>its not a downgrade, more "realistic" does not mean more better
So why does every character in V have a million frames of uncancellable animation and moves like they were stuck in molasses with a turning radius like a semi, ON FOOT?
