Short version. GTA5 having better AI and stuff like police chasing NPCs etc. And adding some new features to a known formula bad for the industry that is used to becoming rich without actually working by bringing out the same repetitive shit every year.
Yeah I see how a game that at least to some extend evolves is bad for the industry. The industry should actually collapse imho.
The thing is not AAA games like GTA are the cancer its more games like FIFA and COD anual shit. And mainstreamers. One call of duty dev gave an interview a few days? ago and said Call of Duty gamers are not gamers. They might play Fifa and COD and thats it. He is somewhat right most are mainstreamers and there is like a 9:1 ratio when it comes to mainstreamers and real gamers today.
I am not saying that Fifa and COD are only played by mainstreamers but the majority of the people who play it are so no offense.
I mean look at great games and how alot of them miserably fail in terms of sales and then look at the marketing monsters with tons of effects boom and violence and how many TV ads they have etc. This gen made games "cool" and people play them to feel cool not to play games nowadays.
Just look back
BTW I dont have GTA5 and dont plan to buy it in the near future so I am not defending it I am just saying that compared to other games GTA is a gift to the industry (not shareholders or greedy people that want easy money for them its toxic)
