Reflecting on the Age and Memories of GTA 5
GTA 5 might be old, but it continues to captivate and entertain players, as discussed in a recent post on the GTA 5 subreddit. The community shares their thoughts on the longevity of this sandbox game and reminisces about the countless memories made in one of the most beloved PC games of all time.
The discussion revolves around the game's age, which is understandable considering it has been over seven years since its release. One user expresses their gratitude to Rockstar for sending them a reward gift and inquires about a rumored new location within the game. They are informed that the new location can be found in the port area of the map, but it lacks significant activities. Additionally, the interior of the new club is described as rather lackluster.
Another user chimes in, saying, "I'd love to see a sequel to Manhunt 3." They believe it would be the perfect game to transition into an open-world setting. However, they express doubt that such a sequel will ever come to fruition due to potential social media backlash and the controversial nature of the games. Another user counters this argument, highlighting that although Rockstar's games may court controversy, they undeniably achieve great success. The reason behind the lack of development for these controversial games, they claim, is the fear of underwhelming sales.
"I'm just grateful that we got a Manhunt game at all," replies a different user. "Even if it felt like playing LA Noire with throat-slitting."
Jokingly, another user remarks, "I suddenly feel ancient upon hearing about the age of these games." In response, someone argues that a sequel to Bully would not perform as well, as the original game enjoyed massive success.
"Midnight Club is what I'm waiting for," exclaims one user, expressing their desire for a sequel to the beloved racing game. "I don't understand why Rockstar won't bring Midnight Club to the next generation," they continue, "it would be an excellent showcase of their capabilities." Another user expresses surprise that people still actively play the previous GTA installment, considering its age. However, many believe that the game still offers an enjoyable experience, leaving them curious if players would have grown tired of it by now.
"I played GTA for years," reveals one user, "utilizing cheats and mods in story mode." They proceed to reflect on the age of GTA and share a personal anecdote. They recount naming their CEO Organization 'Trump Tower' before Donald Trump assumed the presidency, which led to them being targeted by other players in the game until Rockstar released a patch to address the issue.
