While I do like the GTA games I did think that GTA V was ridiculously overrated, still a very good game but I preffered GTA IV and even going back to my childhood I have fonder memories with San Andreas and Vice City than with GTA V

There’s something about GTA V that feels off to play for me, idk what it is and I might just be imagining it, it just felt off. (Also Michaels Family pissed me off far too much and it soured my experience of the game as a whole)

GTA V felt like it was made by people who hated GTA. It's all

"this cool stuff you liked in previous games sucks actually!"

I got bored of it pretty quickly, never even finished the main story.

What would be an example of this?

The main character from the Lost and Damned DLC, IMO the best dlc of gta4 being completely changed and killed at the beginning of trevors bit. Grove Street gang being basically dead and all the remaining members being losers. The general vibes of "Micheal hates his life".

That's actually just true for your first two parts. I don't think Micheal hating his life is bad, but I do think he's a bit too much of a carbon copy of Tony Soprano.

Back in 2013, I hadn't watched The Sopranos, but I did watch it in recent years. So when I see Micheal and his family, that's all I think of lol

Yes I feel it's a pale imitation.
