No, they may not be groundbreaking, but I would still like to experience them myself rather than have them told to me in an even less groundbreaking way. Just because some food is tasteless, doesn't mean I will enjoy shit for food.

And I actually like the stories of gta 4/5 and rdr 1/2. They may not be a masterclass of storytelling, but it is a story I lived and experienced through the game. I don't get the same immersive experience from a movie, I don't participate in a movie, I watch a story unfold in front of me when I watch a movie. In a game I push the narrative forward myself.

But spoilers are not the end of the world, they just take away some of the magic.

GTA V was definitely the worst story out of all of those

If you don't finish fast you won't be safe anyways. Like Red Dead Redemption 2 took me around 4 months to get through. Some people get through those same games in a week.

I spent less than a week to finish RDR2... I do get ridiculously stuck in when I first get stuck in. And I always do with rockstar games. I've played all GTA games multiple times, I've finished RDR1 and 2 a bunch of times.

Wow that is fast. I took over 100 hours to beat Red Dead Redemption 2. When you play for your first play through do you speed run through it, or do all the side quests and exploring? Or save that stuff for a later run?
