GTA or even the madness that is Saints Row tell you that (you are X and your objective is find who send you to prision, killed your family, conquer the city, etc.) while giving you extra content with side-quests or minigames to keep you busy. I think I'll go to youtube and watch the first minutes, and then decide if I like it or not. |
The design phelosophy of GTA is very different from Bethesda's. GTA is more a main narative with a sandbox around it, where as Bethesda is much more about creating your own story, with many different self contained plot lines as well as the simple generic style missions. It's not so much an excuse as it is a different aproach to game design, both have their merits IMO.
