>and having the territory mechanic for it to get taken away from you after a certain point?

Because if you were like me and sinked a lot of time capturing territories only so the game take them away from you after that mission, you would feel a true sense of loss.

>What was the entire point of having the first 30 missions in Los Santos?

As i said before, you wouldnt really feel a sense of loss and betrayal if you didnt grew close to the characters that did it.

So you have one of your friends that always gave you money and was in the look out for you throughout the 30 missions betrayal you and on top of that you lose all your territories that had gang members you armed throughout the 30 missions and probably helped you with territories.

At that point you become punished Carl a fallen nigger and you seek revenge the first few hours, then after a while you dont because you have so much other shit in your plate.

That shit with the territories fucking pisses me off. There's no reason why they couldn't have introduced that later in the game, and not early on when you would fucking lose them all anyway. That's just shitty design

Why is Big Smoke a youtube meme 13 years after the game came out?

It's because the san andreas story was poorly written and only enjoyed by normies who didn't get past the 5th mission.

Only good character was Tenpenny.

The Los Santos segment was way too long. The Green Sabre almost felt like the climax of the whole game. That's why the following segments kind of feel like a drag until you get to the desert, where it's basically an entirely different game at that point

Memes are like anomalies. They can't be made or forced, they just happen.

Well ok they techincally CAN be made and forced.

But can a meme created stand beyond it's creation? Things like Youtube Poop shows that stuff like CDI-Zelda and Sonic the Hedgehog's cartoon, specifically Eggman's character has lasted the test of time so far in terms of the history of memes in general.

Stuff like Numa Numa, tho not popular is still remembered fondly by those that first browsed youtube ages ago. Most memes these days are either created or forced by people who want THEIR memes to be immortal in history. It's why things like the Harlem shake and what does the fox say isn't remembered fondly, if at all.

Good memes last forever and are well loved, the best memes just spontaneously happen without anyone to really "create" it.
