As someone who is mostly ignorant about the GTA series, can someone explain why it's so popular? When GTA 3 came out, I understood the hype around a sandbox game, but now those are everywhere.
A criminally (ha!) underrated game with a cult fanbase.
Trying to introspect on it I believe GTA 5 character acting is just a few orders of magnitude better.
It’s more like an episode of South Park than a sandbox car-crash-simulator.
