Yeah wildly shooting at anything that moves, stealing cars, murdering people, that's the real lifeSilver Quantum wrote: but the game was not meant to be finished fast. it was meant to replicate real life as much as possible
Games are ment to let you do things that you would not want to do (for normal people that is, maybe in your case it's diffirent) in real life, like firing guns in the open, and driving like a idiot etc.
Going on a fictional internet is not one of the things I would want to do when I'm gaming, stuff like going on a date and buying your wardrobe is feeling abit to much like sims, sure it makes it more real life, but then the rest of the game is anything BUT real life.
It's a nice ad to be able to choose what ever you want to wear, to customise what you look like, but then they should have give you to option to let you choose a caracter, or at least build one, cause now you are still running around with a guy in a 3 piece suit who is in desperate need of a shave.
I do like that you can restore your health by getting something to eat, it's easy and more original then heathpacks (eventhough they are in the game also)
Like said before, making things complex does not directly make it a perfect game, what's in store for GTA 5? looking at pictures of nude people (you're choose what your caracters sexual preference is) and get achievement points if you manage to masturbate and reach a orgasm within 5 minutes.
That's real life for you.
