GunmaN1905 02/14/24 4:11:46 PM #39:	[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Every GTA since San Andreas is a perfect answer. To me, GTA is your non-gamer's favorite game. Idk how can anyone who's played most must play titles be entertained by GTA, especially those people playing online for hundreds of hours. Gameplay mechanics are still straight from 2004, nothing to show for. Bullet sponge enemies and the most basic gunplay. After the novelty of killing civilians and playing mini-games wears off, it gets really boring. I didn't play RDR until last year and while I think that RDR is 9 or 10 in every aspect, the gunplay almost made me not finish it. It's so generic and uninspiring. And I guarantee you GTA VI will have the same garbage core mechanics. <cite>GunmaN1905 posted [p:978844085] in What game ...
