GTA isn't an annual or bi-annual franchise and GTA V's DLC's are all free so I guess that's why they aren't criticised. Also I would say GTA is the best ever "milked" franchise if it is one.


Because they didn't made any particular mistake with franchise yet. They precisely improved what they had to improve on each time without doing something stupid enough to ruin the game.

People wouldn't be complaining about Mario if Nintendo continously improved New Super Mario series, but after first DS one, there wasn't any noticeable improvement on neither Wii or Wii U version, which broke the 'immersion' of continuing franchise. This also damaged 3D game line, where people would have accepted 3D World as a new attempt to combine 2D and 3D element to that game influenced by those annoying 2D series.

The fact that Galaxy was too good didn't helped any.

Rockstar has changed GTA completely. They don't rely on minute changes between sequels. Each of their games since GTA San Andreas feels vastly diferent, even the handheld ones, till Vice City Stories they were imroving the GTA III formula by strides, but after that the next game changed the ballpark completely. GTA V feels extremely diferent to the rest of the franchise.
