[@classyglassy2035]

I disagree on the car dialogue point. That's something I've always really appreciated about the Rockstar games. Driving isn't just dead air-you're getting more engagement as you travel. And real people do talk when they're in the car together, so from the point of realism it adds a lot. You can make the argument that hardened killers wouldn't have such a carefree conversation, but these games always have walked the line between contemplative and absurd. I don't know. Not everyone will like it, but I do. I feel like it adds more humanity to these characters, so we sympathize with their stories more.

[@Mebble]

well yeah i see what you mean but when 85% of the entire game's story content is just driving and talking it gets less interesting and more boring

[@alexmt6141]

Mebble 85% are you on drugs? Its about 30% and its excuse for that is the title, Grand Theft AUTO. Is this saying something to you?

[@alexmt6141]

And the game focus more on the criminal activities, family and other side missions, its not the game fault that you dont like it. Go and play something else.

[@peepeepoo3432]

I don't think he meant that there shouldn't be driving dialogues. It's just the timing and topics that make it very weird. The characters get inside the car and immediately start a story, then the story ends and they don't talk until you arrive at your destination. I understand how difficult it is, but Rockstar should aim to achieve conversations that are a little more realistic in terms of time spent in silence, time spent telling anecdotes and time spent just chatting about, because that's how real car conversations go. I think they'll manage it in their next titles.

[@OnlyJustCrazy]

Personally I think it makes it feel like they’re even more psychotic. They can go rob banks and mow down mobs of people without blinking and then get in a car and talk about hipsters and joke around immediately after? Fucking psychos yo. Granted Rockstar games always have a certain level of comedic absurdity so it never really bothered me in the way dunkey is talking about it.

[@peace1290]

It gets worse when your favourite song is playing on the radio but you can't hear it because the characters too busy talking about nothing. In the GTA trilogy, car dialogue wasn't much of an issue because characters didn't talk for an absurd length of time and (for the most part) they only spoke when they had something meaningful to say or it played into the story well. Also, the amount of missions that required characters to be in the same vehicle were drastically lower than IV and V.

This video is old, but I need to say this: You *need* those boring missions for pacing. If every mission was an exhilarating thrill ride it would drain the player out too quickly. By having those missions in the game it makes the more exciting missions stand out because they become more impactful and memorable as a result. Besides, it’s not like those missions don’t contribute something to the overall narrative. The whole point of that truck mission was to show how different Franklin is from his childhood friends who all became crackheads and drug addicts, while he’s trying his best to escape that life and make something of himself. The dialogue isn’t there just for the sake of it, it’s there to add depth and flesh out the characters. It’s a really natural way to peek inside the minds of these guys, just like real life. Be honest, how many times have you ever been in a car with someone else and you *didnt* say something to one another for the duration of the trip, even if it was some of the most dumbest shit imaginable? So while I don’t agree with your arguments about the car conversations or the boring missions, you pretty much nailed it with the rest of the video.

[@Facu_04]

I don't think that boring missions necessarily contribute to a better pacing compared to the fun missions. I think that pacing is developed through fun moments that hype the player to keep playing and stale moments that level down the gameplay, and gta has always have plenty of that. The driving sections of the game could be shorter but I agree that they can be essential or simply enjoyable if the quirks of the characters are utilized correctly. But as I say, they need to be shorter or simply more interesting like in god of war. The conversations between Kratos and Atreus reflect how you can balance boring gameplay with an actual content that feels interesting to the player. I'm just saying that gta 6 should try to improve the gta formula to a modern audience that has expirienced an evolution in the open world type games.

[@Magst3r1]

So basically your argument is that the game needs to be boring so that 10% of it can be fun...

[@Facu_04]

@@Magst3r1 Thats what I'm saying. It doesn't make sense that way.

[@Naz-xk6hq]

@@Magst3r1 you misunderstood my point. I’m not saying make every mission “boring” I’m saying that the missions which are slower than the rest are necessary for the overall pacing and development of the plot and story and help contribute to making those exciting missions more powerful. They help with buildup and suspense. For example: if you took away all the preparation missions for all the heists in GTA V the actual heists themselves would feel less satisfying and grandiose as a result because you didn’t lay the groundwork for getting those heists completed in the first place.

Another thing that you forgot to mention is that Rockstar are not fully aware of themselves.

[@restinpeas1284]

There's a lot more you could have criticized- like how a majority of the online content isn't even made available in singleplayer without mods, the idea of singleplayer dlc was thrown out in favor of focusing on their bordering-on-abuse shark cards with a stranglehold on cash players can make in GTA Online so they're more inclined to pay up, they ditched the proper friendly freeroam that red dead redemption had and gave the poor substitute of whatever that passive mode was supposed to accomplish (it actually just removes you from having any fun safely, kudos for that fuckup Rockstar, can't even defend yourself from cops if you get in trouble, RDR had it right ffs) and the world itself is even more hollow than you said. It's a big ol' diorama that looks great on the surface but below that, you can't even enter restaurants and the number of miscellaneous buildings you can enter is terribly low. And missions that open up interiors only do it for that mission, then the building closes back up as if you didn't easily get inside before. Even in Vice City you could enter a mall, you could enter a police station, you could go inside one of the houses the first island, find a scarface easter egg and a free chainsaw. Exploration for the sake of exploration has been thrown out, and rockstar have given into a "bigger is better" ideology which is... Well it's just wrong.

[@destraw6221]

Older GTA games let you go in many buildings, GTA V doesn't. Older Elder Scrolls games gave you so much freedom you could invent your own spells, or equip different gloves to each individual hand or pauldrons to each shoulder. Skyrim has none of that. (not to mention flying, mark and recall, permanent summon enchantments, etc) I think becoming a mainstream highly profitable industry was the worst thing to happen to gaming. Games are shinier but lack substance. I don't understand why games won't continue to build on their foundations, why good ideas aren't carried over into the sequels while graphics and game-play are improved at the same time. Oh right, billions in revenue. There's no incentive to improve what is already selling.

[@Ilshatey]

Do you remember Interior Heaven in SA?

[@SirusDiarota]

The Elder Scrolls spellcrafting was pretty much a balancing nightmare as far as I remember. As for the gloves part, I think you're going past Morrowind for that. Fine, but I think that's a bit of a stretch when you remember the matter of certain armours missing "parts" of the set, leading to console modding them back in. Sometimes "streamlighting" isn't a bad thing. And besides, there's mods for that. d=P

Dest Raw Stop acting as if there aren't any good games anymore. Some new games might lack substance but there are plenty of others that don't.

[@RedSntDK]

No you're not alone, I like getting to know the characters.

[@suicideposter]

Yeah, I like the boring missions. They utilize the open world in a more seamless way than those stupid pre-scripted chase missions that make the game feel like a cheap arcade game.

[@DNTCreativeMedia]

I think it's the difference between Rockstar making games going "what would the player have the most fun with?" and instead going "we're going to force the player to have fun with this." For example, no, Nintendo doens't make "cool" games like Rockstar, but damn are most of them really FUN to play. They're just so damned enjoyable. Playing through a GTA game at times feels like "I have to get through this" instead of "I WANT to get through this." Another example is that when I play Skyrim or BoTW, when I'm out of the game, I'm THINING about the game: "hmmm...I've got to remember to check out that one thing or go to that one place or make sure to get those items." When I play a GTA game, it's like I forget about the game after I've stopped playing.

I think your most valid point is about how so many locations go unutilized by the campaign. You would think gambling minigames or a casino heist ala San Andreas are great opportunities to flesh out the world more.

Then GTA Online started gaining so much traction that they revised their plans and shifted their efforts on maintaining and growing GTA Online.

Online is designed to make you buy cards and I don’t think you’ve realized that there’s a difference between playing a rewarding game and being time abused for monetary pressure.

Plus there’s a million games out there that deserve time besides the monotonous shallow driving simulator that is GTA online.

@@Loctorak gta vi boutta be the ultimate gta, I'm pretty sure with 20+ years of experience, r* gonna make the game they wanted all along. I still think gta vi will disappoint some fans in the gta community, they will say gta v better than vi, just like how many are saying iv better than v, or 10 years back when people said sa better than iv

I disagree about car banter. It keeps things interesting through all the mandatory car rides.

[@nickdziura7373]

Shayne Bates that just points out the larger problem of having long, empty, mandatory car rides

[@shaynebates7190]

Nick Dziura I often enjoyed the mandatory car rides. They were only really tedious in GTA 4.

[@bazookatooth]

I enjoy the mandatory car rides also. It is, after all, an open world driving/crime game. id rather spend 10 mins driving somewhere, dodging cars, watching the environment change and drop in on an awkward car conversation than just a loading screen and suddenly we're at the mission. talk about making the environment feel alive

[@TheMightyBean321]

He said the conversation topics were stupid. He didn't say he wanted them to be completely silent.

[@lazysn1per]

Nick Dziura They're there to build the characters. If the car banter was completely removed, the characters would have way less depth and story to them.

“Overwatch is quick to get you into a game.” I wish THAT was still true

[@madsstaysnoided558]

Your one point about the emptiness of the maps is the most pertinent; Rockstar are edging closer and closer to the approach of their parent company when it comes to sandboxes- large, pretty, polished, but with next to nothing to do. Nothing is done for the sake of verisimilitude or variety anymore- interiors are unrendered or sparse and empty at best; radiant/miscellaneous quests/missions like the various vehicle-specific missions in earlier GTAs and the phenomenally deep and entertaining LCPD missions in GTA IV are gone, replaced by... nothing. Custom races with an inexplicably small pool of resources and models, not to mention tools for modification and map modulation and shark cards? I hope RDR2 doesn't drop into the same pitfalls as GTA V and goes for authenticity and depth over technical shine and so-so online modes...

[@madsstaysnoided558]

Laroosa Dalabarge I totally agree- yet another series that introduced a sandbox just to keep in step with the competition. Nowadays I have infinitely more respect for developers who limit themselves and focus on crafting tight, busy areas rather than fifty square miles of cannon-fodder NPCs and indestructible buildings- like From Software, or Grasshopper Studios

[@thewotsit]

GTA5 is dripping in verisimilitude from many conceivable angles. Or truth, as I like to call it, since I'm not a speccy wanker.

[@madsstaysnoided558]

Temporal Tom hmm, could have fooled me with a pretentious username like temporal tom lol

[@thewotsit]

[@reservoirfrogs2177]

Laroosa Dalabarge But MGSV gives you so much genuine freedom in gameplay, the open world was smaller and tightly designed to work perfectly for large stealth operations without making some massive map

[@bread8036]

I personally think the hipster conversation was one of the funniest moments in the entire game.

[@arsenalrules12]

Same, don't get how Dunkey doesn't realise how middle aged people are aware of and generally dislike millennial hipsters in Los Angeles, arguably the biggest hotspot for hipsters in the entire country. Also a whole theme of the game is literally the main characters delving back into feeling young again with getting back into crime and developing bonds and relating with fellow younger characters, there's even a mission where Michael disguises himself as a zany and hip computer developer to execute an assassination for Lester so it makes sense that he somewhat knows about hipster culture.

[@404Dannyboy]

KellsKats That is fair if you aren't from a hipster hotspot. You tend to know what a hipster is in LA, Portland, Seattle, Denver, or cities like those no matter your age.

[@coldDrive]

I absolutely love car dialogue and one of the examples highlighted here, L.A. Noire, had super well scripted conversations that gave insight on the characters, tied into the main plot, and you could see while auto-driving to your destination.

[@tobieddy]

There's also a mission where Trevor murders a bunch of hipsters, where he expressed why he hates hipster (and you tend to notice things you hate)

[@robinrai4973]

It made no bloody sense, five seconds prior they were supposed to be fully miffed at each other and forced to do whatever, and then, shallow "ha ha we're funny" hipster accusation out of nowhere.

[@YoungGouda]

As funny as Dunkey's videos are I think I like him even more as a critic

[@Andyilmatto]

frostsaber07 You mean Jake Paul.

[@michtipton7417]

He is nitpicky. The car dialogue is fine but I agree about the open world being fairly empty. red dead has more going on than gta V. Dunkey should play halo 5 because his review of 4 was so great. Halo 5 is a great game but the campaign is short. Thankfully halo 6 will have a 4 year dev cycle so the campaign will be longer.

[@gabrielrodriguez4411]

Same, i wonder if he knows of the early mention/promise of single player dlc was scrapped to make some shit multiplayer only pay/grind to play dlc

[@YoungGouda]

mich o'connor I agree that he can be nitpicky, but he prefaced the whole video by saying that these are amazing games, just not perfect. I feel like this is him suggesting little things to boost a game from great to as close to perfection as possible

[@rhysspeight7142]

Yeah I disagreed with dunkey on that point. Michael lives in Los Santos, GTA version of Los Angeles, he probably sees weird hipsters everyday just walking about on the street, he'll know what they are.

[@jackknutila6960]

Watching this back years later, I like how red dead 2 definitely worked on a lot of these issues. Somehow riding through a forest or swamp on a horse leads to more interactions with random people than driving through downtown los santos. Too bad the online is still doopy.

[@_S0LUS_]

I remember me and a friend trying to do RDR multiplayer and got stuck in a loop of respawn, run around shooting at the other randos gunning each other down, die, repeat. Never got to do any missions or matches. Just 10 guys having an endless gunfight in armadillo.
