i actually thought nico bellic was pretty good character.
anyone who liked rdr but did not like gta 4 is crazy imo |
Why?
RDR was a way better game IMO.
|
to me they were literally the exact same games. And I mean literally right down to the gameplay. The one big difference was the setting otherwise the shooting, cover system, guns were the same. I don't understand what made RDR much better. To me GTA 4 was a fresh experience, then RDR came along and recycled the same gameplay, same type of side missions, same hill billy charachters (never enjoyed it as much since i thought i was playing the same game), then L.A Noire came along and i didnt even go 2 hours into it.

If by "fresh experience" you mean, exactly the same as GTAIII, GTAVC and GTASA. That's just my opinion though, as upon purchasing and playing through a good chunk of GTAIV, I couldn't help but feel like I had been here before, followed by extreme bordem and constant car jackings/running things over/crashing.
However, when I played Red Dead Redemption, I got a brand new feeling. I could easily tell that GTA was hidden behind the western style but it never bothered me. I loved every minute of it. But, I grew up on westerns and own way too many of them today.

You make a good point but for me GTA 4 was much more different than the other GTAs. The other GTAs literally felt like a sandbox where i can just mess around and do whatever i want. GTA 4 on the other hand had an actual serious story and vibe. I even liked the new driving mechanics.

It seems that you and I look for very different things from our GTA games. Why would you want linearity from an open world game?
|
well i really wanted a good story in GTA and GTA 4 delivered. Most open world games distract you from the main plot therefore Story never comes out as strong. In GTA 4, for me, good story/charachters and the open world had a good mix. The same reason I like Mass Effect. Its sort of open world yet very linear.
