My favorite feature of GTA Online was when I’d get destroyed by someone with every weapon, only to respawn walking distance from them over and over and over. They’d kill me repeatedly before I even had a chance to do anything. The only way I could escape was to hope I found a car quick, or hope they got bored of spawn killing me.
This game is a fucking joke. Rockstar has been a shell of its former self for years.
I got hooked on shark cards for a while when I played GTA:O, I probably spend thousands of SEK on them for months, then one day I realized what a fucking shit game it is, and uninstalled it.
This was eight or so years ago now, and I have not played it since.
I don't consider the money wasted though, I consider them part of my education, I learned from this, and can now see the signs before I spend money.
Yeah, I never consider it a waste if you got some personal enrichment from it as an outlet. My goal was to never spend any actual money on the online portion and eventually people just got way too overpowered. It was a glaring example of pay-to-play and how it can ruin a game. It shut out any chance of growth and fun.
