DR:BUSTA 2,208 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) This account is just a troll account made just to make these threads If you looked at his name you'll see "Nayden burns" and burns doesn't start with a Capital letter so it's not his name it's a verb and it refers to "how Nayden burns GTA 4 fanboys" And that was today's lesson given by teacher Busta Edited January 30 by DR:BUSTA Payne and The Idiot 2 Link to post Share on other sites

This thread may need to be locked.. 3 pages arguing with the anti gta-iv ist propaganda.. I'd say the same about several people from this section filling the entire GTA V section with "anti gta v propaganda" while calling others trolls for having different views to be quite honest As for contributing to this thread, I agree with universetwisters. I feel that around the time the game gets into the mob stuff it feels rushed, missions start having similar objectives to older ones. I also don't like how certain stuff was cut, like the silenced pistol and the nightstick, barber shops, randomized number plates and more, which would've fitted nicely in the game. Even some light car tuning would've worked as certain gang cars already have side skirts and this kind of stuff. SA didn't have in-depth tuning for most cars and only a few ones had special parts too. People will say "oh but we don't need useless features that don't fit nico in the game it's perfect" but taking a look at the girlfriends thread shows me that it's basically what they said they didn't want, stuff that doesn't fit Niko at all, yet it still exists. I like the physics, the car design and the story until the mob stuff because they felt unique, like driving a truck with a bomb for Faustin or following a guy without being noticed for Jacob. The weapon selection is alright although I wish there were more melee weapons. I also like how gang vehicles spawn with mods on them too, it makes them stand out more, unlike in SA. It's a nice game but it could've been better, to be honest, and the same can be said about the rest of the HD Era GTAs too. Seems to be quite a habit with even the 3D Era GTAs too, where they lose steam halfway. About the DLCs, I think TLAD was better than IV but I hate how they had to cut certain vanilla features like changing clothes. Johnny could've used his attire from IV as an option. I actually like how Johnny isn't portrayed as a Gary Stu even though what he did was fairly stupid. The addon content is good but I don't like how most of them are locked behind missions, like the weapons not being seen outside missions or certain cars like the Regina being mission exclusive, or the Tampa not even appearing anywhere despite being present in a cutscene. TBoGT is the more fun one and fixes the issues TLAD had with the content, by making the weapons and vehicles mostly accessible in freeroam, while adding some more content. I don't really have anything to say about the story, he was mostly a jobber like Claude. Edited February 1 by Jinx. Wayne Kerr, AIcatraz, BossFF007 and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites
PsyWarVeteran 31 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 The driving, shooting and physics make up for it. It's dark and gritty without the goofiness of the old GTA's but still, it's a great game. Link to post Share on other sites

Is there not all kinds of funny dialogue throughout every mission, spoken by NPCs and on the radio? Can you not do crazy goofy stunts, explosions etc with the over the top physics and do other silly things like knock cops down stairs by throwing hotdogs at them or go to a sex shop and throw dildos around or stumble around drunk shouting YELLOW CAR? Like yeah it's less wacky. But it's still a very fun and humorous game. People act like it's a totally dry serious drama. But it's also a comedic satire and an open world where you can do all kinds of crazy stuff, it's not that different. Edited February 1 by billiejoearmstrong8 Eugene H.

I didn't say anything about humor. Yeah but there's still a fair amount of goofy stuff is what I'm saying. Some goofy humour, goofy physics, goofy characters, goofy stuff you can do. I totally enjoy that it's darker and more serious than the others and doesn't have an excessive amount of goofiness. It's a better balance for my taste. But I'm just saying the goofiness isn't totally absent, there's still a lot of fun and silliness. Edited February 1 by billiejoearmstrong8 Link to post Share on other sites

TheSantader25 7,300 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I mean at rare times the game CAN be boring but I don't think it's a boring game overall. It surely has more interesting moments than boring ones. Sorry if my post is too short, for a more detailed explanation check the OP. Loads of good points there. Link to post Share on other sites

Because if you like the over the top aspects of V and SA, then yes IV is gonna be boring. It says something about the maturity of a person though, speaking from experience here.

It's called tastes People are different. Don't expect everyone to have the same opinion as you it's an opinion not the absolute truth. Also how's moving your fingers on a controller related to maturing Real matures are smart enough not to take Video games seriously and are doing their best to change the world or working but not finding the opportunities they deserve . But us ? We're just drugging ourselves with fake achievements (that we shouldn't take seriously of it's supposed to be a way for entertainment and killing extra time not more or less) Edit : Oh sh*t I swore not to take anything on the internet seriously Edited February 3 by DR:BUSTA BossFF007 1 Link to post Share on other sites
