I’m sore that they’d actually planned single player content for GTA V, akin to that of GTA IV. TBOGT and TLAD were so good, like full standalone games, but just reusing most of the map, assets and engine. However when GTA Online’s success exceeded expectations, they cancelled the single player content and cannibalised it into sub-tier disjointed online junk, leaving behind unresolved single player storylines and hints, that were supposed to feature in the expansions, in their wake.
Yeah, I do kind of hope that this insane games as a service crap dies down significantly. The gaming industry has really lost my interest since 2010 and it doesn’t seem to be putting out anything that scratches my gaming itch anymore.
Totally agree - it’s just plain unfettered greed on R*'s part. Though part of the blame definetely belongs to the whales who encourage this BS by spending thousands of dollars on a single game
