User blog comment:The Milkman/Grand Theft Auto V Review: Everything We Wanted?/@comment-1612856-20131017233347

When you beat the game you realize how annoying and ridiculous it is.

The thing's this game really messed up with is...

1. Characters are too damn weak in this game. In four punches, you die. In three pistol shots you die! In a few shotgun shots you die! What game is this? Call of duty? If you wanted to go shoot up some Ballas, they will easily kill you because you barely have any health. If a cougar spots you, they kill you instantly. In Far Cry 3, if a tiger or bear attacked you, you could still knife them and kill them quickly. Basically there's no fun in a game if you die in like three shots or a few punches.

2. The cops are too powerful and smart. A one star takes like 2 minutes to get rid of even if out of their sight. So that's 2 minutes of driving full speed away from cops only to know there's more coming in your direction. Plus you get a star for something as simple as shooting a gun shot so if you wanted to go rampage and kill a bunch of ppl too bad because the cops show up and then you have to escape them. A game is also no fun if you get a wanted level for something simple as shooting a gun shot, then being nearly impossible to get rid of the stars.

3. By the end of this game, there isn't much to really do or buy. There need to be more garages and safehouses.

4. Enterable interiors. It's sad to see there's no building in the game you can enter except, the stores to rob, clothing stores, LS Customs, safehouses, garages and the strip club.

5. Making Money. This has been a problem in this game all the time. Too little money is given when robbing stores or armored trucks and you only make money from heists. Plus the 5000 dollars that you lose every time you get wasted is too costly! The way you get wasted so easily in the game, it shouldn't be this expensive.

6. The vehicle spawning system. As many vehicles GTA V has, this is where they messed up the most. One will think GTA V has barely any vehicles as compared to GTA IV and episodes and GTA San Andreas because the car spawning system is f***ed up! Super cars do not have a set location and only can be bought on websites. A lot of cars such as Dubstas and Beejays show up so often that other cars like Infernuses, Sultans, even few cars that ppl don't really drive such as Dashounds barely show up. The car spawning system needs fixing. No one wants to see Beejay XLs in places like Paleto Bay or Vinewood Hills. Each place needs different vehicles.

7. The map size makes no sense because there isn't as much to do as it appears. SR2 had a medium-sized map that can easily fit in GTA V's map. However, there were so many enterable buildings in the game. The airport, cave, mountain, university, nuclear power plant, meat factory, fish factory, lighthouse, casinos, nightclubs, even an enterable mall besides the many clothing stores, repair shops, weapon stores, strip clubs, liquor stores etc you could enter. Basically, you could cause chaos anywhere without having to worry about having barely an health or several cops chasing you. You even could pay to get rid of your stars. In GTA V it is nearly impossible to get away from cops and if you want to cause chaos anywhere, you will be pressured by cops and gangsters plus a low health. Plus the pedestrians and cars blended into the districts in SR2. In Sandy Shores, you'd expect to find many Campers, Rebels and even Sandkings. But instead sometimes you find modern cars like Beejays and Ballers. o_0?! Basically due to the health and wanted level system the game easily gets boring in my opinion, for it's not fun to just watch your character ride a ferris wheel instead of causing mad chaos in town.

8. The ocean is too detailed. They could've worked with the enterable buildings because no one is really going into the ocean to search for stuff. If we had more buildings to rob and/or explore GTA V would've topped the cake. Plus as big as the world is, we definitely need more purchaseable places, more vehicles, more safehouses and more garages. It's pathetic that SR2's world is smaller than GTA V's yet you could enter/purchase nearly any building in the game except for those controlled by Ultor.

That's just my opinion of GTA V. It's a good game, because simple things like collisions, graphics, highways, and the story easily beat SR2, but gameplay in GTA V sucks ass and only gets more annoying and ridiculous. It's sad to see that even new games can't beat the aspects that San Andreas and SR2 have.
