    I cant wait to run over gusanos and rich people in this hyperrealistic game

    Theres no way this doesnt end badly, it kinda feels irresponsible to make a game like this

      Ten bucks says the main character is a gusano. Probably some reference about their family fleeing the great evil for beautiful America and now she has to turn to crime to survive. Rockstar isn’t clever, and they love their right wing views.

        RDR2 was far from right wing. Though Dan Houser said he never cared for GTA and only like RDR, so perhaps the writing direction will be different.

        … did you play GTA 4? It was an ex-Yugoslav veteran coming to America to achieve the American dream only to realize it’s all fake and the people are stupid for believing it.

        San Andres was literally about CRASH harassing black people and forcing you to be involved with crime. At worst they’re libertarian but they seem to lean on the “wow the government is really shitty and we have to resort to crime” angle.

          Yeah I’ve never seen GTA as a glorification of American culture. I don’t remember the stories to 3 and vice city, but San Andreas, 4, 5 definitely were not.
