The connecting highway with the tunnel and Back o' Beyond is horribly designed IMO. The roads connect together with no landmark to distinguish them from. The rural parts were underappericated unless you've done the trucking missions. A lot of detail around those parts.
I don't see the problem to be honest. Nothing wrong with male on male sexual assault.
Sorry, my anger wasn’t necessarily aimed at you personally, just that there are people on here that lose their fucking minds if you express thirst over video game women and I don’t want this to wind up like the Street Fighter thread.
It's cool, no problem. And it's okay to appreciate the female form, pixels or not. Graphics are so realistic now anyway that it'd be kinda gay not to.
The reason people have a problem with a female protagonist in a GTA game is that it's simply not convincing. In the real world men commit the overwhelming majority of violent crimes, the idea of a woman carrying out armed bank robberies and carjackings just doesn't feel believable. If they made a game about poisoning your child and leaving them bedridden so you can be showered in sympathy by people on Facebook then yeah, a female main character would make sense.
You're onto something there. Really the only women I can think of who actually did this shit were Soviet trained terrorists during the Cold War.
Newsflash: GTA is not the real world. If it was, it wouldn't have things like laser guns, jetpacks, orbital canons, and street-level thugs being able infiltrate top-secret government bases.
Most of the whacky stuff you mentioned is in the online mode, which has always been less serious than the single-player campaign. People play GTA Online with a different mindset, where the expectation is more about goofy fun than a believable world. It's like saying that something whacky happening in Half-Life 3 would be fine because whacky things happen in Garry's Mod.
GTA is meant to be about crime, not futuristic military shit.
The point still stands.
I think you're describing Saint's Row more than GTA. GTA IV in particular took itself quite seriously. Even the more light-hearted games were still trying to do something more than what you're describing: Vice City was a tribute to 80s Miami and pop culture set there like Scarface and Miami Vice, San Andreas was a homage to the classic era of rap and hiphop.
CJ, a poor gang banger from the hood, becomes a secret agent for an unnamed agency, then steals a jetpack from Area 51 to then steal Alien Goo from a government train convoy, and also ends up having to do a parachute drop to take back a rappers mansion from a gang banging drug dealer said rapper was in debt to.
Yeah, this is why the biggest complaint for the past decade has been that Rockstar cancelled the GTA V Zombie, Alien and Government Conspiracy DLCs.
To take down a drug syndicate and free his brother from prison. Only to go back to gangbanging. That's actually my favorite part of SA.
Just because he goes back to gang banging doesn't suddenly make anything he did to get there grounded or realistic. If anything, CJ going back to the hood after becoming a music manager and real estate mogul just because his brother calls him a bitch is really unrealistic.
I believe the government conspiracy DLC was reworked in The Doomsday Heist. Poorly, I may add.
I think that started from Battlefield V or Life is Strange.
