Is it unfair?

[TylerBro]

Is it like unfair to us that Rockstar Games seperated the 3D/SD universe to the HD Universe? It's like R* rebooted the whole Grand Theft Auto franchise since "GTA IV" was released (In April 29, 2008), Making "GTA: VCS" the last 3D GTA game. For me, I think R* should reconnect the 3 different universe again (2D, 3D, and HD). Because it's like Niko thinks that he's the Kingpin of Liberty City, Not knowing that Claude came first before him. And Franklin (In GTA V) wouldn't know that one member of his gang has ruled the San Andreas back at 1992, Which is Carl Johnson. I think R* should reconnect the 3 different universe into one starting when "GTA VI" is released.

 

Possibilities:

 

* Roman Bellic is present in the happenings of GTA III (Because he was already at Liberty City since 1998, As he mentioned in "The Cousins Bellic")

* CJ will be 44 years old at GTA V and probably still a member of the families.

* Tommy will probably be present at GTA VI, As rockstar said GTA VI will take place at Vice City.

 

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK

[Tycek]

No, they should keep the universes separated, because connecting them by force would bring nothing than a mess and confusion. Pretty much all loose ends from the 3D were tied, so there is no point in adding some threads, just to keep it connected to the HD era.

 

Also nobody said that some events of 3D/HD eras didn't happen in the other one. They just aren't mentioned for the sake of clarity of the story.

[UshaB]

I don't want them to be connected. 3D era ended with a bang and that's all that matters for them. Time to breathe fresh air...

[Osho]

I really don't care how they treat the universes, as I don't understand this "universes concept" at all, except for the fact that Rockstar created the sandbox titles in 2D, 3D and now HD format.

Gameplay wise, I'd definitely want a lot of the 2D/3D games taste in HD games that's starting to bore the hell out of me with lack of things to do and inconsistent mixture of technical improvements, be the driving, physics, features, freedom, etc, etc.

It's impossible to connect all three universes in one, because it would cause unnecessary confusion.

No. Keep them separated.

[Algonquin Assassin]

Why is it unfair? To be honest I've never understood the appeal of seeing an aged Tommy and/or CJ. I think they should be left alone and remembered in their original games that millions love.

 

IMO there's no other reason to connect the universes other than for nostalgia. The way R* do it keeps things fresh whilst presenting new lineage.

 

I don't care for events or characters from over a decade ago and if I do I'll just play those games if I want to.

Why would Niko be a kingpin of Liberty City?

[Alexander]

No, sh*t would get messed up. I like the way it is now.

[9i OTD]

If they were connected, then I'd be more intrigued to find out how a city could be unrecognizably different from what it was five years ago then I would about the actual game.

[Sawnek]

I think it's fair that the universes stay separate as if they weren't it would create so much confusion and unnecessary questions that can generally be avoided by keeping the 3D and HD universe apart.

 

Also, I get that people really want to see the return of CJ, Tommy or Claude, but it just shouldn't happen, their storylines are completed and there's nothing more that can be added without potentially ruining it. The 3D games did a great job at all connecting with each other but seeing a return would once again ruin it.

* Tommy will probably be present at GTA VI, As rockstar said GTA VI will take place at Vice City.

 

 

wtf? when did rockstar confirm vice city for gta 6? did i miss something?

ye, Just see the VI. VI like VIce City /s

[Zello]

No keep them separated I like the whole separate universes thing also what happens to the characters is up to your

Don't forget those characters belong to R* not us so it's fair as much as you kick and scream at them it is their creation and they can do with it what they please.

Comic books do separate universes all the time and it works for them DC and Marvel have rebooted their universes about a million times

[Shadowfennekin]

No. It's too late for that now anyways.

 

The maps are completely different as well.

 

Besides.... I don't want to see CJ again

[American Viking]

Connecting the universes is a ridiculous idea, but you gave me a good laugh with that Niko being the Kingpin of LC line. If you think about it, Niko never rose above "Hitman" status. Sure he made many connections and ended up with alot of money, but he's still basically a "fresh off the boat" killer.

[GamesBoy316]

I think the whole "different universes" thing is fine. The classic GTA protagonists we know and care about, should be left alone. Besides, their stories are already finished with perfect endings.

[combustion]

No, never. It would not match, and there would be a lot of confusion. All the 3D Universe protagonists seeing their city different and huge.

And Niko was still a hired gun at the end of GTAIV, only richer than most hired guns. Talk about him in GTAV says that he lives a low-life after 2008, so there's no chance of him being a kingpin. Only Vercetti was a true kingpin.

[Terrell]

Keep in mind they had all of this pre planned in the late 90s..... and 40 years worth of ideas (that will probably all connect together and complement each) today..... worth of stories. So it has to connect in some way, or they have wasted their time, effort, and money.

Why? It was a F success, dude.

[Queen Elizabeth II]

Just leave it alone and don't break it.

[XxX19Dude95XxX]

As rockstar said GTA VI will take place at Vice City.

It is their game so if they want to have different universes they can. I think it is good to keep the series fresh instead of rehashing the same old things over and over again.

I agree they created it let them do what they want with it.

Don't really get why people want to see old protags back who wants to see an old Tommy with heart issues and diabetus, Claude in a wheel chair and an oxygen tank, or CJ with Alzheimer's.

No thanks

Glitch sorry

[Error2k]

Rockstar wanted HD era to be separated simply beacuse they wanted realistic characters and graphics. 3D era had cartoonish graphics, arcade gameplay, unrealistic story and characters, so connecting those two universes would create a big mess.

[TylerBro]

Yeah, You're right guys. Maybe connecting their 3 universe into one will be a whole confusion . It's too late now because:

 

* The maps are now different

* They both now have their happy endings

 

So yeah, R* did chose the best decision to seperate the 3 universe , Thanks for waking me up in my "imagination " and thanks for your time

[BlackSnow176]

Voted "no" and "no". Although I still support the idea of Claude and Claude being the same person...

[J Cobra]

Rockstar just didn't want to. They just came up with some universe bullsh*t, so they wouldn't ever have to do it.

[Aerovitia]

Do you want a Super GTA Wars game?

 

I can't imagine it. It just feels.. weird.
