The video game industry has an annual revenue of over $25 billion. One largely anticipated game set to be released in 2012 is Grand Theft Auto V (date yet unannounced), and it assuredly will not disappoint. One reason game forums await the release of GTA V is to find out if the male protagonist streak will be broken.
Grand Theft Auto V was released on PC on the 14th of April 2015. That means the game will be nine years old in four days, and it’s still among the most-played titles on Steam. With a 24-hour peak of 145K players, it’s as popular as Baldur’s Gate 3, Apex: Legends, and Destiny 2.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.
Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…
Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.
Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game
The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.
I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls
Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games
I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
Judging by the trailer, not likely. There was a male voiceover and absolutely no hints about female lead.
Who knows. If they did that, I really would love Pam Grier as the lead character. She's is probably the baddest mutha lady in films. I can see her in a 70s era GTA in San Andreas. But since they are going modern with probably Hollywood themes, and west coast issue, who knows.
Still holding out for a GTA in the winter, in the Detroit region. I want the Arabs, Canadians, the countryside, the city. The snow! Christmas! It would be really awesome..1!!
Prefer Male Characters for my shooters and Female Characters for my Fantasy needs.
I honestly don't think that they would ever make a female the lead. Unless its a dual story where you can choose Male or Felmale both with complete stories.
if there is multiple protagonists then rockstar should let one of them be a female.
but i prefer male protagonists, most gta players are male and won't be able to relate to a female protagonist.
all of the past gta characters were easy to relate to because they had male problems.
