Comment on What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ?
psx_crab@lemmy.zip 1 week agoI have no idea why you’re being downvoted for a post asking about personal opinion, and you’re simply stating your personal opinion non-toxically.
As for GTA, i can see how it doesn’t appeal to people, there’s a video dissecting GTA franchise and it kinda open my eye a bit, not sure if your complain is the same or not but a lot of people do dislike the franchise for multiple reason, the mission structure being one.

I played Dragon’s Dogma 2, and realized that has the kind of mission structure that I would really love in a GTA or RDR game. Even if the missions in DD2 weren’t all that great themselves, they didn’t end the mission and send you back to the start even if an important character died. The quests weren’t quarantined off in a part of the open world, they were embedded within it.

Eh, I should expect some downvotes. It is a popular series after all…
The only GTA game I played through fully I did so at a pretty young age, and don’t really remember much to be critical of their mission structure, to be honest. And the early ones didn’t have that rich of a story to begin with.
My complaint is more like a lack of interest in the main gameplay of the series: the roaming around a relatively realistic city being a nuisance to people. It never appealed to me. Even when it’s just crimes, I just kept feeling like I’m doing a job rather than playing a game. I guess open world games set in the modern day world just don’t have any hooks me. I’m just surprised that this is not a common opinion, clearly! :D
