genuinely, the game's missions are your bog standard rockstar mission structure they haven't changed since god know when, and giving a shit about GTA IV's story or characters is hard, Roman isn't fun, the cutscenes are trying to appear very "adult", Niko kept making little homophobic jokes, and the driving. my god the driving in this game, I didn't remember it being this bad but it feels like you're driving a boat that's taking in water, those cars feel less like cars than in the more arcade-y entries in the series, it's impressive how sluggish they all are, you can push the stick all the way to the right or just hold D and the car struggles to make a turn, you see it shake so hard it looks like there's something wrong with the suspension. Point is, driving = not fun.
now I'm working on drawing my nonbinary lynx for a little bit :3
