Supposedly GTA IV VA was fucked over by union and was over worked and underpaid but games journalists ran a smear campaign saying he was greedy for more money

Michael Hollick didn't hate R*, it's precisely what >>742252975 said. He complained about the voice acting guild for a bad contract, not Rockstar who he praised. Retards online loving bringing up the famous VAs that disliked working with Rockstar but somehow they never bring up those that didn't complain and enjoyed their work? People like Kyle MacLachlan or William Fichtner or Gary Busey or Danny Trejo or James Woods or Samuel Jackson. Turns out, the likes of Burt Reynolds and Ray Liotta were the exception rather than the rule, and they were assholes while recording.

also, despite having 3 protagonists 5 is much shorter than 4

But, much more interestingly, I found someone made a fake TV show page for the entire GTA series that goes in order of the game's missions.

2013. That's fucking 13 years. I LOVED GTA 4 as a kid, I really did. To this day, it's my comfort game. I was SO excited for 5, at the time it was my entire life, just waiting for that game. Watching the trailer over and over. Then, when it came out, I remember I prepared a bunch of food. I intentionally grabbed a food that I wanted to mentally associate with the game, I don't know why. I got to the part where you're doing missions for Lester trying to set up a heist when I realised that I wasn't enjoying the game. The story just sucked, I hated all the characters, the fighting was terrible, the driving was too arcadey, the physics were a huge downgrade, I can go on and on. SO MUCH about the game was just a massive fucking step down, and it's like nobody else can see it. People see a bigger, more diverse map and just immediately assume its better. (Even when interiors and non existent. And no, a loading screen followed by being stuck in a room where you can't even fucking run around or shoot doesn't count as a proper interior. I mean ones you can just walk into like 4.)

For THIRTEEN fucking years since then, I've had to sit and listen again and again to how amazing GTA 5 is despite being a massive downgrade in so many aspects compared to four. I've made entire Youtube videos on it, where I've scripted and put together all the aspects and small reasons why GTA 5 is a worse experience than GTA 4. At this point, I'm happy for GTA 6 to come out solely because it'll put an end to the saga of having to hear about GTA 5. Best case scenario is for GTA 6 to improve on so much shit that people look back at 5 and finally see how dogshit it is. More likely it'll be another dogshit, mediocre game that we'll have to tolerate for another 10 years.

I think the accessibility of GTA 5 is the only reason it's more popular.
>constant checkpoints
>easy shooting
>easy driving
>easy to understand characters with zero depth
>every cutscene ends up being characters arguing with one another, which is engaging on a surface level and doesn't require you to think
GTA 4 filters people by having driving actually take skill, by not having a weapon wheel, by having only rare checkpoints, a complex main character etc.

Ned Luke and Shawn Fonteno have never been all that negative about it. Ned Luke in particular loves it and has been critical of Ogg for being a miserable fuck, and Fonteno is Young Maylay's cousin in real life and probably the reason he's mellowed out too. It's literally just Ogg. He seems to think he's a serious auteur and above it. Retard needs to buck up and accept that he isn't.

man, someone in Rockstar back in the day had Hollywood mob connection, or had world class cocksucking skills because think about it. yeah, it was GTA but this was 2000(gta III)-2004(gta sa). how did they swing that? even ‘blockbusters’ nowadays get… Debrah Wilson… and… the Uncharted guy. other than that it’s kinda mainstay literally who random voice actors because of cost. sure, the odd TV movie celeb will voice their own guy, in a game from the same franchise as the character but that’s far and few between.

i hate that the backup thing is temporary too. i also dont want to listen to Armando and Enrique’s retarded repetitive “WE IS ‘ESPANIC BRUH” dialouge as Luis if i want gang shit in GTA IV. and i dont always want biker gangster shit either. sometimes i just want bogstandard gta 4 and some allied thugs and shoot up a block.
i also hate how since IV, gang npcs are just set dressing in the freeroam outside of missions. fuckin let them attack eachother in gangland shitholes. they’re gangland shitholes, in GTA! the fucking “compton” area in GTA 5 really pisses me off because unless the player initiates it nothing fucking happens! in a ‘parody’ world where guys are still colourbanging like it’s the 90s.
and mods? fucking please, rockstar/kiketwo cant wait to break the modding scene with some do-nothing patch or update. im surprised they havent sent a cease and desist to FusionFix for daring to fucking fixing GTA 4 on pc. assholes.

Vice City and San Andreas nail the parody of the 80s and 90s respectively
GTA4 fails the parody aspect a little but the story of Niko is really good
I don't know what they were even trying to do in 5
Trevor is insane, yet they do everything to force you to like him

what are you talking about man? GTA 4 is 2007 incarnate. cellphones being ‘the new thing’, Luis is the only playable character with somewhat of a touchscreen phone and even then it’s a Motorola.
internet cafes, the in game web 2.0 websites, the radio skits talking about “kids these days and their MySpac- uh i mean, MyFriends pages!”
the totally-not-MSNBC and totally-not-Fox-News tv channels talking about totally-not-the-real-life-Afghanistan-Iraq-conflict of the mid 2000s and the obesity epidemic.
tv adverts taking the piss out of ‘E! Network’ style reality TV shows.
maybe give it a replay man, i played it through recently and i was transported back in time to when my mom had a shitty dodgybox sharing service watching The Real Housewifes Of Whogivesafuck on 24/7, and this newfangled “Facebook” was becoming a thing. even gta 5 (singleplayer) feels very 2013-2014 to me now.

>reality: probably a shitty tacked on DLC for Online, let alone if they do map extension.
judging by how they handled GTA 5/Online i’m not too hopeful. why waste resources on voice actors, writing teams, porting/building a new map, when you can just get Rajesh from the mocap studio to mocap a new cutscene and make a new car or two and chuck it in the Online portion. like they’ve dine with GTA 5 for over a fuckin decade now.

>>742279162
>They also cancelled Bully 2 and Midnight Club 5 for similar reasons.
They got canned because they redirected the studios to finish Red Dead Redemption, and those who resisted got fired, hence why the Midnight Club guys got hired all in a single package and made The Crew later.
They can't make the sequels because they cannibalized everyone and fired the creative directors who got tired of waiting for their allocated budgets and workers.

The FBI vs CIA subplot is just baffling because there's nothing in the game that implies Steve is lying or wrong about the glowie nerve agent false flag attack. Yeah he's a weird aggressive cokehead but I guess Steve is genuinely heroic.
Then despite them being the most powerful group the protagonists have pissed off the CIA just get dropped from the plot towards the end, they don't even get a mention in the ending C final mission, they just take their ball and go home to sulk.

I agree

I loved VC, SA, and IV. If you held a gun to my head, I'd probably have to say IV is my favorite just because of nostalgia.

V never clicked with me, and I wasn't even insanely hyped and had moon-high expectations. I was too busy in life at the time to even care about vidya, so when it came out I really went in blind and it still fell short of my expectations.

Writing felt like a Saints Row game with how... Dialed up everything was. Every scene involved absurd parody of something irl, or people yelling at each other. I also just never clicked with any of the characters. Franklin was the only protagonist I felt even semi-relatable and likable. Michael was straight up a villain, and not even a sympathetic one. Trevor felt out of place, and he's the reason I will never go back and play V because I always remember "that part" where you HAVE to play his fucking trailer park arc and can't see/do anything else until you do his missions. I think my main problem with the story was the whole "heist" central plot never felt earned. The bank heist in IV was great, and it really felt unique because it was one of a kind in the game itself. It was my favorite mission in all of IV, probably the one I remember the most. In theory, if all the heists in V felt that good, it should've blown IV out of the water.

Last, shooting in V just feels like a straight up downgrade. Not sure if it is how weightless everything feels, or the physics of actually shooting people compared to IV.

I agree wholeheartedly but I can also acknowledge how if Rockstar hadn't phoned it in with GTA Online and it weren't 13 years later, GTA V would be remembered at least more fondly.

That said, the soundtrack, talk radio, the actual story, and unlockables are all absolutely horrid in V.

i dont mind trevor but it always struck me as odd how he’s the iNsAnE one. oooooh so insane he SMOKES METH (have u watched Breaking Bad btw?!) and is implied to EAT PEOPLE. … in a universe where they had in-game adverts for “Liberty City Survivor” which says it’s basically a bloodsport reality TV show. in a universe where “toilet cleaner” is the new designer drug. in a universe where violence is ramped up and normalised like the entire world is a favela. the universe where Carcer city from Manhunt is referenced in every 3D era and HD era game.

>is it worth it?
Ironically very well written despite the Housers hating the everliving shit out of it
Only downside is Johnny K being a jew but that doesn't come into play other than being called stingy or taunting nig gang members.
The atmosphere is even more gloomy as it is almost always cloudy, the bikes got a handling tweak so they are much more agile, new guns are cool (auto Colt 45, streetsweeper shotgun, helicopter has explosive rounds) but perhaps the story is a blackpill and overly pessimistic.
GTA V treated it horribly, even in a technical canonical term, to the point you can even say it was hard retconed or just another proof V was pretty badly written. Ending itself is a bit rushed because it seems they forgot Niko takes one of the main antagonists in his storyline when making the DLC but the real ending mission is decent, certainly one of the best one-liners in the series.

Stopped reading right there. Nigga that's something V made up, a plot point in TLaD is how the Angels of Death are getting ahead of The Lost because they deal with drugs unlike Johnny and co. which is something Billy wants to change. What happened with Johnny was nothing short of Hobo Luke Skywalker-tier:
>Johnny's character arc revolves entirely around realizing when people around him use him like Billie or Ashley
>culminates in him learning to say no
>The Lost burns down, there's no club anymore

But they share the same first letter and their stories are in the same universe as Redemption 1 does reference Revolver plot points as actual events, plus they share the same concept and same company.
There's 3 Red Dead games, Revolver (1), Redemption (2) and Redemption 2 (3). I wanted to blame R* (Rockstar) but to be fair i don't remember them referring to these games in acronyms, it's a problem of fans being newfags.

no, fair enough. im not a V defender by any means. it just makes sense to me if they were going for a “proto” RDR 2, and really biker gangs have been a dying thing since the mid 2000s, and that johnny himself in TLAD admittedly says he’s always been a simp. i can just see him finally caving and sharing a pipe with her when the entire gang starts to fall apart towards 2013.

Also the entire fact that in V Johnny is the Vice President, despite you know what happens in the DLC and him being the unanimous undisputed leader in the near-end.
And add to the fact the organization isn't supposed to exist either in V.
And also add to the fact >>742284103 how the Housers completely screwed their own characterization of the entire thing, and how John K has a massive anti-drug stance along with his companions.

It is bad writing 101, Housers used a strong pre-existing subject in the form of a previous protagonist and the power structure behind him with The Lost to sacrifice them for the sake of quickly establishing the ethos and importance of the new protagonist, something that could've been done very easily by introducing us to him directly trying to burn down the chinese competitors after a bad trip while also showing us how he is eating some human remains in his trailer.
V is the product of the Housers going through a mid-life crisis and trying to be hip and edgy by crossing several red lines, sadly to the detriment of good writing.
Some dude described something similar happening with Ninja Theory and their storylines (Enslaved, nuDmC)

This, SR2 felt like it filled that San Andreas scratch while everyone was puzzled about IV's more serious and "focused" experience, some people expected even something more heavy and realistic (me) because they tried to say it would be a more compact and detailed experience akin to Shenmue but Rockstar got cold feet and backtracked that.

I don't know, i agree with your statement but San Andreas felt relatively tame in terms of liberal talking points. After all niggers were portrayed as cheaters, clearly less intelligent than anyone else, easily manipulated, extremely volatile and violent, the main antagonist is a coon himself and his co-partner a jew, i don't know, even the media in-game portrayed politics pretty shallowly with the libs in Radio X and KDST (Axl lines) and the conservatives being the gun vendors and the US-Australia War references.
Hell, even the fag district in San Fierro is extremely tame for what it deserved to be shown, full of normal shops and normal peds rather than Fudge Taffy-tier shop names and all peds having a lisp.

>his strengths which is ripping off Miami Vice and movies
Never thought about it, Housers really are Tarantino-tier writers, i need time to process this but anyways in terms of gameplay they did deliver enough, IV and The Lost alone do position them above Quentin's chronic kleptomaniacy.

We are in GTA 6 because that's what R* named it and how it is in the series:
>GTA, expansion pack using same engine

>GTA IV, DLC using same engine
>GTA V, DLC using same game
Red Dead Revolver was the first, Redemption the second and with a DLC in Undead Nightmare, then Redemption 2 with online shit.
Under your hypothetical logic here Redemption 2 would be RDR4, but it isn't, it's RDR3. Let's now turn the table, what would be the acronym of Red Dead Revolver then? technically and narratively? "0" is usually reserved for "spiritual" founding games (Demon's Souls) but only by in-depth enthusiasts and in specific cases.

You are supposed to ambush them with rocket launchers, it's the fun part when they are in cars.
When they are in buildings shit gets bad but a sniper rifle does the job. My real fucking problem with gang wars was that the commands for your companions do not really work, you ask for stand down or retreat and they will not do that, they will get themselves killed and i wanted no memorial portraits in my watch.

Without cheats i managed to steal a helicopter with explosive rounds and parked it in Brian's house lol, when i started the missions i would fly directly to the spots and strafed everything i saw BUT still despite commands and everything the bikers would spawn near and get themselves killed.
It's like doing the Vigilante missions with the Hunter in Vice City, you just fly and missile everything from far away, that's the easy way to get absurdly rich with the monopoly money.

u wot, but yeah i recall watching one long ass video about the game's cognitive dissonance and double standards, as someone who studied southwest history with physical first-hand written sources the game, and even Redemption 1, felt like a very sanitized anachronistic take on the region's culture.
A liberal european take on it in short but even common americans sin of thinking their moral standards were the same as ours nowadays, the great depression changed a lot of things along with WWII, hell we can even dare to say culturally the west was another country itself, even the first fucking Redemption talks about that very same thing (Federalization and Flight to Urban areas).
Revolver was an over the top homage to european westerns so i take that with humor, but the Redemption games have no excuses, very poor research by the studios (one being in California with Arizona workers)

Man i didn't remember him and the other spook chick getting shafted, basically a field operations chief for the CIA blowing his cover to make a silly arrest.
Fuck the Housers so much. Let's not mention the junkie chick Niko helps several times becoming a payless crony for the Epsilon, at least she gives one of the best clothing options in the series.

I've worked with ruskies (industrial engineers) and they aren't like that, they think crude and unorthodox things but they aren't impulsive, if anything a bit pragmatic.
Rascalov being an army man in the Afghanistan War and becoming a businessman-type of mobster makes his actions irrational.

Character for Niko's origin story, catalyzer for the Diamond Saga, narrative justification for Rascalov going after Niko despite highly risky to do so without negations first, also an excuse to put a Bulgari-an as antagonist to our serbian protag (the albanian being Dardan, the ruskie being Rascalov, the italian being Pegorino), but under that logic we need a turk and a german.

GTA3 and LCS are The Sopranos' Tony schtick with his bad relation with mom, his "uncle" (Salvatore) and being a fat fuck, also the whore front (Sex Club 7) that even has the same actor associated with the place (Joe Pantoliano)
IV's antagonists are the russian mafia guys from The Sopranos, two ex-army guys, one a brute with substance problems, and the other a calculating guy, who operate from NJ and that ruskie beach area. Dmitri Rascalov's concept art even has him sporting the same clothing as Slava's, his counterpart in Sopranos.

Wasn't that the point? Darko being just another balkan hitman but one that did drugs rather than bowl with his cousin, and he couldn't bowl with his family because he explicitly mentioned his own squad previously killing his neighbors.
He two-timed the two-timers, got paid a thousand bucks (what Niko was paid when he mowed down a warehouse full of box-packing spics) and got his revenge. That he didn't live a decent life later is another story, none did, Niko was a shellshocked killer and Florian was a flaming sodomite.

It's ironic that Florian himself is not considered a "friend" by the game's standard despite being the only one that truly understands Niko, both in childhood and war time.
I know it's because he's a raging faggot but the game could've invented something so he could behave normally and let us hear his side of the story. Beats hearing Dwayne talking about Cluckin Bell.

He was planned to be a friend you could hang out with, there's some leftover files in the game.

It's a shame that didn't make the cut, he's one of my favourite characters in the game

No the creature he's referring to is human beings in-general. In that story he's entering a village and that's the sight he's greeted with

he lets go but like niko probably needed some closure at least. he congratulates niko if you let darko "live" at the end.
>>
>>742282406
It's alright.

It feels like a 3 act story that starts in act 2 if you know what I mean. It feels like there is an intro and a few missions missing as it just throws you into the Lost MC getting their old leader back. Why was he gone? hell if I know but he wants his bike back so you get it and now you are at war with the other biker gang and hijinks ensue. Worth a playthrough but it is by means the best.

>>742300030
>niko is serbian, he committed the genocide
Serbs were genocided by bosnians, albanians and the mujahiden, by croats too but by a small extend. That's the whole point of the Kosovo DLC.
It was a valetudo all-out party, the only ones that got relatively scot-free were the slovenes but not without a little war crime (Barracks assault and executions)
>"the creature" is referring to himself
Wait... well that makes a bit more sense, daaaamn, i always thought it was his way of justifying the killing of the aggressors, saying they didn't have souls hence not guilty.

that's because GTA5 entire story was design to be an introduction to the online heists and modes.

it is literally one big ass tutorial with a shitty unfinished story sprinkled in. I like the characters but the story was not well executed and the ending came out of fucking nowhere.

My situation was similar.
As a south American poorfag I usually waited for complete editions of games to come, I only bought gta4 because I didn't know dlc for it was coming but I was super glad it did because they were pretty good. So I decided to wait for gta5's complete edition but that never fucking came, i alter found out they cancelled all single player DLC for online do I decided to borrow the game from a friend.
After playing for a few hours I was completely fucking bored with it, I pushed trough all the way to end of the game and i was just flabbergasted on how it fucking ended.

I don't have strong feeling for the online so I only played it a little and dropped it. It is the only gta i finished once and this comes from someone who beat the handheld gta multiple times ( I am replaying vice city stories again right now)
>>742311869

1. Dwayne
He just got out of prison and seems to mostly want to lay low in peace and quiet, maybe drink.
2. Packie
I don't mind excessive drinking.
3. Lil Jacob
Weed smells bad. But he is cool otherwise.
4. Roman
Too much of a party animal.
5. Brucie
Same as Roman. I am also afraid that he might fuck me.

you wanna know why some games dont have simple voice chat anymore? it's cuz of obama seriously look it up. it's why the switch natively doesnt have it and why some games dont bother

i'm not an expert by any means but it's probably unironic and he hates himself for it

The game has server wide voice chat.

Though the quickest way would be to open your phone and call someone.

They already recycled those DLC ideas for GTA Online. Apparently there was something about a DLC where Trevor was gonna be a secret agent or something which was later recycled into the Doomsday Heist

Not having quick group chat function is pretty retarded tho, why only pc have it to this day is a mystery.
>>742314056
The point is not everyone wants to voice chat. Having a group text chat window like the pc version would've make people willing to do heists a helluva lot more.

the sad thing is cheating (not cucking) happens commonly irl and rockstar is shining a spotlight on it to warn their Mature Gamers to not be a chump in the relationship

Downgrade isn't the word for it.
It has more stuff. Like, it has so much more stuff it is fucking unreal. The fact that they crammed it into like 10 GB and shipped it on the Xbox 360 is nothing short of a miracle.

GTA 4 is tighter. I'd legitimately compare it to The Godfather how it's perfectly paced and everything is exactly where it should be.

I blame people GTA 5 on people having too many expectations.
I think they... tried to make something that was that memorable. They just tried way too hard. GTA is one of the most controversial series of games that has ever existed and it's at its best when it does not give a fuck at all.

"R*ddit" is such a canned insult but it really is the word I'd use. It's a bunch of flat characters doin heckin violence and riding motorbikes out of a plane in THE FUCKIN STRATOSPHERE and then Trevor and Rocket Raccoon shake their head and have an emotional moment so you know this game has depths and it's a thing for grownups.

>>742302679
Originally, it was supposed to just be Michael as the protagonist and Trevor as the traditional “first he’s your friend but *dramatic beat drop* then he betrays you????” Rockstar style antagonist. Franklin was always an afterthought. It’s the reason Trevor feels so reddit, they turned him from a straight up antagonist into a cringe antihero
>>
>>742296559
The best thing they added was being able to do everything in your own session.

Yeah it's fun doing it in a multiplayer lobby don't get me wrong. But when the game is scummy as fuck with money to get you to buy the shark cards I don't think it's just as fun any more.
>>
>>742315040
Trevor dying has the most pathos because he causes the most fuck ups that ultimately go nowhere like his various assaults on Maryweather assets.
Every character except him got what they wanted by the halfway point of the game so the endings really feel like a huge amount of nothing.
Ending C they just kind of go their separate ways I guess. Trevor in particular was out for Michael's blood even up to the end and he sort of forgives him? It's just stupid.
The ending where Michael dies is also an unsatisfying fizzle considering you start the game as him. I'd make a comparison to Mafia 2's ending but even that gave a conclusion. Vito entered the mafia business and fucked up, he paid the consequences by losing Joe.
>>
>>742315693
Joe lived
>>
>>742316298
as fanservice for the sequel, yes. but the intention at the time was to make you firmly believe he was dead, because that's how the actual mafia works.
>>
>>742315693
trevor didnt want to kill micheal at all, he was fucking pissed at what he felt was a best bro fucking him over. imagine your best friend ditches you to go hang with some slut, you dont want to murder him, you want him to ditch the bitch. thats what trevors/micheals dynamic is

i think if III is your favorite game there is no way you could ever like IV. IV is my favorite and i cant stand III outside of liking the 2001 aesthetic
>>
>>742314356
It's an anglo thing, IV also has it like Roman getting cucked by Vlad and Niko being appalled enough to kill the guy despite his no-killing rule early on. Then Pegorino getting cucked by Phil Bell, Klebbitz getting cucked by Boccino (and Boccino getting cucked by Johnny K again), Florian doing the cucking and getting it too with the negroe gambler that sold him away, Dwayne getting the treatment with his girl going with the rat who sold him, and Niko himself getting it in a sort of way with Michelle not being the girl he thought and selling him out. Might be missing something else but the story certainly treats these as serious issues, they end with death or going into hiding.

Vice City was mostly a deranged thing with Tommy whoring out the girls he gets to know, 3 is a misunderstanding with people thinking Claude is doing the deeds (Maria, Asuka initially) and he himself getting cucked by the colombian head honcho that culminates in Catalina shooting him.
San Andreas i don't recall well other than CJ doing the cucking if you pick all the girlfriends.
>>
>>742314408
I remember GameSpot crashing with all the traffic when that came out amidst the Kane & Lynch ads
Good times, then the game was delayed for multiplayer, project scientology happened here, and then online being filled with anonymoose haxor usernames.

>>742307609
While i want to agree the thing with SR2 is that it tried to go unapologetic with the things it already made in SR1, it was still in context aside from making the main character get full voice and dialogue.
The story suffered around with the characters being honestly quite unlikeable (pothead girl, the main character himself) but the game was simply fun, always had something new every 3 missions or so.
What i found interesting is that it has many things yet it is actually tough to get money, also got angry they didn't re-use/give again the SR1 safehouses, they even have their interiors accessible and fully modeled.
SR3 was a fucking mess although some small tidbits like a couple missions and car customization was nice.
>>
>>742317978
>no-killing rule
By the time he kills Vlad, he already killed one of Roman's loan sharks and I think a few missions with Lil Jacob where he kills a few people. Niko killed him because he had enough of Roman whining and calling him a traitor for not telling him about their affair when, according to Roman's own words, what they had was an open relationship to begin with.
>>
>>742254280
The best drift car in the game
>>
>>742318621
>he already killed one of Roman's loan sharks
you actually dont need to kill him. you can knock him out and he will cower on the floor and you can just leave. its hard to do though since he will automatically try to go towards the window once hes at low health so the game can do the cutscene. you also miss out on nikos dialogue if you take that route

this
gta online when played solo is the best criminal empire sim on the market
>>
>>742319032
isnt there a lot of stuff you cant do solo even if you use a menu to force it?
>>
>>742319032
>the online game is only good if you play it alone
>grind the game like a part time job running biker businesses and doing nightclub shit
>occasionally do a heist with a couple friends and gamble at the casino
The online is less fun than GTA 4 unless you play FiveM.
>>
>>742319127
They actually changed it to where you can grind most businesses in a solo lobby a few years ago. Which is a marginal improvement from doing the old task manager trick to suspend task on the game to force the game to put you into a multiplayer lobby by yourself.
>>
>>742319127
they changed it just a few years back so that you can source and sell your business products in a solo lobby
the only thing that requires 2 or 4 players are some of the older heist content like the original heists, doomsday, and diamond, there's been plenty of content including newer heists that you can play solo
>>
>>742296559
the menus and shit was/is a fucking hassle. unironically, the most gta-esque moment i experienced was around the first christmas after release when someone managed to get a 100+ mil money hack going for everyone on the server and you had to invest it fast af before cuckstar took it from you.

>>742283904
the pause music was perfect for these
nikos is bleak
johnnys is gritty
luiss is comfy
