IIRC it wasn't as beloved as San Andreas or 5, and wasn't considered worthy of all of the 10s that it got.

Everyone praised Dragon Age Inquisition when it first came out, and now everybody hates that game.

Very few people believe it is worthy of the 10's it got. Or at least, the people who did think this changed their mind a few weeks after launch.

GTA IV was a technical marvel to be sure, but it was an abysmal game. I wouldn't say the fans *hated* it, but it was a disappointment for most to be sure after the openness and fun of San Andreas.

People really didnt like GTA4, at least forums had a disdain for it. I had issues with the driving but Nico was awesome. It wasn't until years after that people started really warming up to it.

Also, everyone hates the new Zelda game until the next one comes out. Then they love it. Twilight Princess is a good example. Skyward Sword was just a bad Zelda game imo.

GTA's story campaign is always boring, and that's all IV had. Compared to SA people didn't like it, yeah.

pretty sure everyone hated the physics of 4 and would constantly make videos of cars being stupid or players tripping over sidewalks and stumbling for forever

4 was not as loved as you remember
