Single player's pretty good and as long as you're not an autistic retard that needs literally every unlock in a video game there's enough content in the online department to keep you playing. Advertising for the game never lied about the game (except for the load times on PS3)

It's not a perfect game, with load times for online being abysmal, lots of modders/hackers, a lot of the story's 100% completion is finding scraps of paper/collectibles, but you tell me where you can get a racing game, a TPS, an FPS, and an open world sandbox with every part incredibly polished
>>
a big game which is easy to get into, does not require loads of time to have fun with, has popular themes, lots of different elements to satisfy different groups, brand myth, has homages to some popular Hollywood movies and is quite polished

doesn't mean I'm a GTA V fan myself, but it has some advantages it would be hard not to mention

It's a 10/10 game. Only reason /v/tendo hates it is because of drones and PC cuckolds who had to wait 2 years for their Steam port.

More like 8/10. And the online is filth.

gta online offers a better and complete experience than the single player mode

its one of those games that ironically its better with friends
>>
>>384715758
That's where you wrong, niggeració. R* is the last bastion of western gayman and GTA5 has perfect storymode and mp(unless you play on PC with all the subhumans).

Can't wait for RDR 2.

Because while the story itself is underhwelming, the single player is still a top notch gaming experience. And Online is a fun grindfest if you manage to find decent people to play with.

VCS was the last good GTA

Because even the worst GTA is still a pretty good game to have a fun time in.

Remember the joke that was this online 4 years ago? Ahh bad fucking times
>>
>>384716687
Bullshit. You see, consoles are like a country club while PC is that dirty basketballcourt "in da hood".
It's free and you don't have to play by the rules, but you have to play witch griefing niggers and get a worse experience while I have FUN with my fellow white MEN who know how to behave.

Jews not allowed btw.

Because it is better than BOTW, a 2017 game. Not to mention it looks better.

how the hell is it still 60 dollars is the real question
60 fucking dollars for a 4 year old game and it never goes on sale and then you had the jewery they pulled last years sale

Name one current gen game offering the a similar experience to GTA V.

Also, it does go on sale, I got it for 29 yurobucks,

There's no need to grind. All I do is kill people and chill on my yacht.

>There's no need to grind.
So you don't play GTAO, alright.

>But it's okay when WoW does it?
Yeah, that's why I mentioned subscriptions in a negative manner, because I pay for subscriptions myself. And slammed grinding because I do spend my time repeating content in a paid game like a fucking retard to not get jewed in F2P worthy microtransaction schemes. You figured it all out.
>>
>>384719316
If you get a competent crew, do a few heists and you're already swimming in money. Without the grind it would be boring, what's the joy of owning a sports car if it costs pennies?
>>
>>384719448
>If you get a competent crew, do a few heists and you're already swimming in money.
Pacific Standard was profitable with a closed crew. Was. Until R* blocked the apartment and patched the finale repeat trick.

Seriously, when was the last time you even played this? Prices are off the charts.

>Without the grind it would be boring
I've been there. And not caring about money was the most fun I had, fucking around in freeroam like it was meant to be, no MMO shackles. Then they went full gulag on ban policy and it just wasn't worth the risk, prices spiked shortly after and I spent way too much time repeating the same content over and over. Only this time the profitable stuff didn't even have room for optimization as heists did, so it was just mindnumblingly boring.

its the most expensive game ever made

>>384713983
Because GTA:O is a legit MMO with a ton of different things to do, things to farm, and way to have fun. Its a shame about the hackers though, I remember on old gen online if someone had a super they worked hard for it.

that's the power of brand recognition

The reason its in the steam top selers every week are the shark cards not teh amount of copies sold.

Best GTA game so far. Some millennium kids will say it's GTA San Andreas, but that's only because it was their first GTA game or they're just black.

I never really understood the big draw of this game and its series. I like the saints row games more but that series self destructed in the end. At least saints row games dont get over involved with a plot and let you get straight to the shooting and explosions and punching hookers. If I want some dramatic urban crime story I'll watch the wire or the sopranos or some mafia movie. People also talked big about this game having a super detailed los angeles, but what do I care? I wasnt even mad in saints row 3 that steelport felt generic and boring because I was too busy doing activies and missions. Also this game has a shit ton mods from what I notice on youtube but new vegas and skyrim became big modding communities before GTA 5 even existed.
