I'm having a fairly sour evening as I'm coming to realize: GTA Online just isn't fun (for me). At all. Hasn't really been for quite some time. And that's particularly troubling since it is clearly R*'s cash cow. I mean, from a business perspective, I get it; selling Shark Cards to kiddies is a hella lot more profitable than selling a $60 game every couple years to someone like me. Still, seems like there ought to be some kind of happy medium. A huge part of the appeal for the GTA series used to be that it was readily picked up by the casual gamer. Sit down for 30 mins, create a little mayhem, get on with your life. Anymore, the GTA universe revolves around the next DLC, the next vehicle pack, the next kill-the-guy-next-to-you mode. And it falls flat. This isn't what brought me here. I don't want to spend hours upon hours grinding missions to make imaginary money just to be competitive in a race, or whatever goofy adversarial mode comes down the pike. As a consumer, I don't want this. I don't want to be pwned in public lobbies by 13 year old kids who spend hours upon hours honing their virtual skills to feast upon the fresh meat that is me. I'm not particularly good at most of these game modes, but - and here's the kicker - I don't want to HAVE to be particularly good. I just want to play. And lately, it doesn't feel like play. It feels like work, and it blows, and it's depressing. Where has the fun gone? Am I the only one?

Everything MrMister said is absolutely true. I for one hate the way GTAO works. .. But on the other hand i play it every week. This is for crew nights of course, and if it wasnt for that, i would have given up on GTAO a long time ago. As a crew we try to help each other make money as efficiently as possible, even if it does mean we take advantage of another stupid glitch or grind the easiest money makers. But then it comes down to the big question... Is the game fun? And the answers i come to is: Cheating to get money to buy everything? Not fun. Grinding to earn the items in-game? Fun for half an hour, then not fun. Buying a sharkcard to get the items? Instant regret, no fun. So the only thing keeping me playing is creating content for crew nights, and taking part in the themes. Just the social aspects of the crew really. I downloaded GTA:SA the other day on PS4 and i've been having so much more fun replaying tham that i have with the latest GTAO DLC... these DLC's are shallow and careless. I mean one car and all it's mods and coding could be created by their team in just a day... it's just not worth the wait. I'm hanging on the the idea that GTAO is only being handled my a very small team whilst they are working on a new full sized game inbthe background.

From what I see on Bethesda.net it looks like they're crediting Mod authors and even have a donation link there. As this is the first time something like this is happening there are bound to be some issues with it. As for those who want everything, I'm sure they've been disappointed many times over, so it'll be nothing new to them. But even with all that. I still think playing on PC is the best. I enjoy the free cam way too much as well as all the other commands I can use to shape my own little fallout world. Where else would I see a cat taking on a Deathclaw?

I go back to it every so often but yeah, it is a bit dull... they don't cater enough for the solo player.... R* said when it was Online was created that there would be enough for the solo player to do and it was to start with but they have moved towards creating new content intended to force people to play together and lose money so they can sell their cards... A lot of my dissatisfaction with the game is my own fault as I am not a social player and I am just not good enough for PvP games. Might be different if I could join the crews events more often but even when I do, my skill level is so low, I end up losing everything pretty badly... or stealing a car when I thought I was jumping... Fuck man, I'm not even good enough to be a griefer...

Not perfect but I think I got most of the colors adjusted. Good enough to make it default.

I played gta about a weak after it came out in the ps4 and haven't played since. gtao isn't enjoyable. you have to grind grind grind or pay pay pay. Also, they've given up on sp dlc so, fuck em.

I'm hoping for mods that allow you to have extra building materials, furniture etc which I know you can already get for PC. I've seen some brilliant settlements built with them, so I'm quite hopeful I can do something similar! I'm actually holding off building anything else until they are released - already have a few ideas in mind.

guys, it's called yaoi or shotocon.
