Duping the Arena Issi was the only reason I could ever enjoy the game. The grind was absolutely ridiculous. Once my character got wiped during the glitch where you could sell the cheapest property for the price of the most expensive one, I quit permanently. I’m not spending hours and hours and hours of grinding just to afford a single car.
Comment on Modders are gonna have a field day
EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 10 months agoHonestly it can be fun? For a few weeks at a time before I get bored and go do something else.
I will admit though GTAO is the only online game I’ve ever downloaded a mod menu for. I never touched the god mode or teleportation or any other parts of it. Just the money generation because fuck every single thing about the grind in that game that is designed to push you towards shark cards.
When you can buy whatever you want and the missions are purely for fun? Honestly yeah. I enjoy it. Last time I played, even though it wasn’t current, I mostly played with the nightclub.

Same. Really enjoyed heists and racing, especially when the latter got wacky.

Agreed, I dumped a lot of hours in that game’s grind and it’s marginally worth it at best. They seem to have loosened up the payouts lately (been playing on and off for the past year), but the real fun (VTOL jets, railgun tanks, subs, orbital lasers, etc.) are locked behind millions of funbucks, which are immensely difficult to accrue. Plus it’s infested with modders and cheaters at this point, so not using mod menus is relatively synonymous to shooting yourself in the foot before running a marathon at this point…

I used to screw around with friends as The Panto Gang where we decked out pantos in the most ridiculous visual mods, and drove circles around people until they started trying to blow us up.
In 8 months, I put more time into gta online doing that than in the 9 years afterward.

Oh, definitely more fun and even easier with friends. If nothing else, makes the grind bearable when you’re also messing about with a whole gang.

Every day we played, we knew how the night was going to end.
At some point when it’s getting late, we’ll all be trying not to be the first one to say anything, then one person shoots another, it devolves into a half hour of free-for-all; explosions, probably literal tons of bullets, and when we all finally ran out of ammo and started beating each other to death with pool cues, bats, and police batons, the night would come to an end.
And then another half hour of talking while a few wandered around aimlessly in cars or sat on the dashboard.
