GTA was never relevant to me.

But, I don't like open world games and I liking being the good guy who takes out the bad guys. Unlike GTA where you play as a criminal who kills cops and innocent bystanders.

What does "good guy" and "bad guys" mean? Good = USA, Western Europe, Bad = Russia, Middle-East, North-Korea etc?

Good guy means protagonist. Bad guy means antagonist.

If you want specific examples, here's a list:

Cloud good, Sephiroth bad

Master Chief good, Covenant bad

Commander Sheppard good, Reapers bad

Mario good, Bowser bad

Solid Snake good, Revolver Ocelot bad

Link good, Ganon bad

Allied Forces good, Axis Powers bad

Survivors good, Zombies bad

Freedom fighters good, Oppressors bad

Good good, Evil bad

It's all about context.

I think it's pretty easy to tell when you're playing as a good guy or a bad guy. In GTA you usually play as a criminal and a murderer who kills police or as I like to call them the good guys. Sometimes the games make it look like the cops are corrupt, but most of the time you just kill random people and regular cops doing their job.

Look, I'm not making any judgments about people who like GTA. As a sandbox it's full of fun stuff to do. Causing havok is fun. I just don't happen to like playing in a sandbox for long nor do I enjoying being the bad guy. I've played through both Mass Effect games twice. Once as Male and once as Female, but both as full paragon. That's just my thing.
