The only GTA where they tried to write a good story, so far at least I wouldn't be surprised if the new one follows in its steps

6 will be DEI zoomzoom nigger worship.

The ragdolls in 4 are obviously still aheae of 5.

>>715055351
That was with Carl and Franklin, especially retarded that Franklin was even the main character when it should have been Michael. Very much doubt it will happen in 6

>>715055669
I swear you fuckers are relentless, every single thread that people post about how GTA4 is better than 5 always uses the physics as its main argument and nothing else.
That's it.
Please come up with points that actually matter instead of comparing which ragdoll can fall down a flight of stairs more realistically.

GTA series sucks ass once you become an adult.

The loading music is better. The characters are more relatable and immersive. Niko is a great protagonist with his background and character development. Simple as. The latina gal and surface level random white guy in hollywood NiggerBeachCity tm aren't gonna live up to it and we can already tell 6 is going to be boring, stale as fuck.

I don’t even know why you fags who hate 4 hate it so much, it’s literally the same shit as the other games.

>>715054910 (OP)
that's because the story and characters are really good.

>>715056230
I don't hate 4, I'm indifferent about the series today but we get this same thread consistently.

>>715056725
No we are not. When was the last time? Literally nobody talks about 4.

>>715054910 (OP)
the physics engine makes every gun fight feel really fun and dynamic, same with red dead 1

>>715054910 (OP)
ludonaritive dissonance is not immersive

>Early 00s New York
>Better driving and physics
>Characters are fleshed out and have more personality especially Niko

>Felt like an improved version of previous GTA games but better graphics and gameplay but still kept it's personality

>Better soundtrack than 5

>More immersive map than 5 but more on par with RDR2

For me the early 00s feel even playing it for the first time a few years ago is what sticks with me the most. Also Niko after finishing the story you can feel the sadness in the world which is unusual in these type of games. Franklin was the worse protagonist and it pisses me off that you couldn't switch to Trevor or Michael after learning about the hit and team up together to kill Franklin. Which was the obvious choice.

it gets mogged by gay tony

>>715054910 (OP)
I like 4 until i replay it and i am reminded that only vc and sa are good

>>715061468
Honestly the DLC for 4 wasn't that special. Gay Tony was good but it never added much to 4. The biker gang dlc was horrible.

Based take. There's just something about Liberty City in 4 that feels way more alive and grounded than anything in 5. The rain-soaked streets, the radio hosts talking about dumb 2008 shit, even Niko mumbling to himself in Serbian mid-mission-it all hits different. They actually tried to make you care about the world and the people in it. Franklin always felt like a watered-down CJ with no real agency or motivation past "I wanna get rich." Meanwhile, Niko’s story actually sticks with you, especially that feeling of emptiness when it’s all over. You nailed it with how it captures that early '00s melancholy too, it’s unironically more atmospheric than half the so-called “immersive sims” today.

San Andreas is better than all of them

>Niko mumbling to himself in Serbian mid-mission
His accent is fucking atrocious. I just wish that they got some random Serbian actor to do the voice work

Physics, more realistic, gloomy.
It honestly feels like GTA 3 atmosphere wise. Also, the multiplayer was just designed around fucking off having fun and not microtransactions. I’ll sometimes start the game up on my Xbox just to drive around in free roam lobbies with randoms.

it's pure late2000-2010 kino

>>715063960
they wanted to hire that guy from Behind the enemy line

>>715061817
how so fag

>>715054910 (OP)
vice city and san andreas > 4 and 5

6 is going the RPG mechanic route like san andreas so next year 6 will be > all of them

>>715055683
Michael was the main character but there's nothing wrong with Carl and Franklin, you're just a low IQ mongoloid.

>>715067616
The game technically starts with Michael but that's more like a flashback, the first actual mission in the game starts with Franklin and ends with him choosing who gets to die. They definitely wanted him to be the main character, they just sucked at writing him
Also lol both are extremely niggerish
