Is this game any good? I found GTAV to be extremely unsatisfying

It's a good game with some glaring flaws. You will be disappointed if you're looking for a GTA clone.

Is the open world filled with nothing to do?
>You will be disappointed if you're looking for a GTA clone.
I'm well past the silly GTA gameplay, could use something different.

You're punished for doing open world stuff in its open world

it's shit
>retarded truth/lie/doubt mechanism that most of the time doesn't make sense
>logic thrown out of the window. convict one of two guys on a crime fails a mission while the other one succeeds despite both being innocent
>empty open world, unless you like going around collecting film reels
>lack of shooting sections, if you're 'murican

only redeeming factor is the facial animation

>>379791684
Imma tell you right now that the action in the game is a 3rd thought and was not going to appear what so ever in the final product. So they just added it.

Originally the buttons were labelled coax/force/lie
instead of truth/doubt/lie. Once you realise that the reactions make a lot more sense.

It's old enough that you should be able to get it for pocket change, so why not just go for it?

The detective stuff is okay, but investigating crime scenes is basically a game of "click on everything", and coming up with the correct answers during interrogations can be pretty frustrating if you're not thinking what the developers wanted you to think.

It's also a shame that the developers felt obligated to fill the game with numerous unrealistically large-scale gunfights. The city of Los Angeles turns into a fucking war zone several times. The publisher probably thought they needed those shooter segments to attract the normie audience.

There's practically nothing to do in the open world. There's a few street crime missions that pop up, which are short vignettes where you do typical GTA style activities like car chases and shootouts. There's also some collectible cars to find. The open world is mainly about getting from one location to another and can be skipped most of the time, if desired.

If you're interested in film noir, police procedurals or a period piece about California in the 1940s, you'd enjoy LA Noire. If that doesn't describe you, it's probably a waste of your time.

not really, the system in the game just doesn't work
>can see through someone's lie
>accuse them
>oh, i had to ask them another question first THEN accuse them

you get punished for having the intuition you are supposed to have. Possibly slowest and worst driving segments of any game of all time.

its a decent adventure game that was unfortunately tainted with rockstar meddling which resulted in open world collectathon nonsense.

>coax/force/lie

Are you sure it wasn't something like coax/force/accuse? I mean, the "lie" option in the game is used to accuse the suspect of lying, right? So if it's coax/force/lie, then your options are two verbs describing your action and one verb describing the suspect's action, which is confusing and dumb.

>>379791684
very underrated if you're into that style of game

SUPER IMMERSIVE
great story and characters and ATMOSPHERE, one of the best, really

interrogation seemed retarded and "wow i'm punished for not following the same logic as the developers", but on my, what, 3rd playthrough, i actually used my brain to think like the developers and didn't rush questions and i got most of them right

if you're a guy who likes that aesthetic and vintage 1940's movies, you'll love this, like i said it's super immersive and the story arc that the characters go through is fantastic. not much to do after the story besides the collectibles, but it's a great experience overall.

Its like 5/10

The detective shit was kind of boring.

I usually just think of it as
Truth/Bullshit but no proof/ Bullshit and I can prove it.
