I’m guessing GTA is the same way, with a good underlying message and story that’s overshadowed by a lot of suckiness. Something something satire requires clarity…
I think GTA IV and the DLCs do have really good story with really cool characters that you will like. Besides the lack of airplanes, I think GTA IV is probably the best GTA game. Now the other GTAs storylines are really weird and rushed. GTA III is a simple revenge story. GTA VC and SA start serious about gangs and stuff, and by the end you are stealing jetpacks and having casinos. It really makes zero sense and seems like the ending was rushed, full of unused content. GTA V also has the same feeling as SA, but the map is really lackluster, just a big city, like three small cities and a lot of mountains for no reason, an entire city could be there, but no. Rockstar decided to just create a bunch of mountains. And the three protagonists thing gets old really quick.
