[@ruskflux]

@@jovantesicc true, weather it was intentional or not, rockstar did nail the soulless high life of la through los santos to a tee, shown mainly through Michael's plot and later on in franklin's too. whereas the people of los santos live with their in reality depressing lives with delusion that they've made it, liberty city feels more aware of it's lonely and depressive state, considering the time it was set in. Makes you appreciate the fact that rockstar took their time to think through the nuances of every and each atmosphere, cant wait to see what they do with vice city next.

[@ConnieFWill]

​@@ruskfluxto me, Liberty City is actually trying to be a satire of post-9/11 America, while Los Santos feels more like a hollow caricature which leans into many of the same tropes it's apparently trying to make fun of. Ironically, Blaine County feels way more like "California" to me than Los Santos because it's at least accurate to what the Salton Sea and Bakersfield areas are like in real life

[@bendover8317]

This video reminded me how I once felt about gta games. I've played every single gta since vice city and every single one of them had some kind of magic to them. I've been playing a lot of gta online recently and the world there just doesn't feel the same even tho it's basically almost identical to gta 5 single-player world. It's just something about online that is off, I feel like something is missing there. But then again online experience and single-player experience is different I guess. Thanks for making me feel the magic I once felt from these games for at least half an hour.

[@dgurevich1]

I feel like online players are the ones breaking the immersion. In SP, you are on your own and the world and NPCs are your playground, you feel like you're part of their world from their point of view. Online, you quickly realize the whole playground, the whole world is nothing but a facade for other players to hunt you down and kill you, so you're constantly watching your surroundings in search of other players. Surviving gta online requires us to learn to differentiate players from NPCs, and over so many years, it has become so wired in our brains. To me, online world feels like the matrix, where I treat NPCs as completely insignificant, an obstacle at best. It feels gray compared to SP.

[@AverageAlien]

lower NPC population in online, if you're on console, lower frames and worse graphics in online too

[@ONomeManeiro]

Also, no animals in online.

[@uum6]

GTA Online's world is massively downgraded as far as NPC events. The uniquely animated activities which bring all its pockets to life are all but gone, on top of the much lower pedestrian and traffic densities. After a month of it back in 2013, I just couldn't take it anymore.

Need for Speed might 'feature' illegal street racing but I wouldn't say it 'promotes' it. In the same way GTA features crime but also shows the consequences of partaking in such activities.

i think parallel universes. Like CJ definitely exists in V universe, but not the one who broke into Area 69.

[@CaptainAmercia]

GTA 3 Library City though may as well be a different city as the GTA 3 rendition of Liberty City was based on New York City, Philadelphia, Detroit and Baltimore, no overall inspiration from one city in particular. This is very different to most other GTA games like Vice City and San Andreas which features a city based solely on a real world locations with very accurate layouts. buildings, cultures, history and landmarks such as Los Santo's from GTA SA and GTA V being based on L.A. GTA IV rendition of Liberty City was solely inspired by New York City which you can tell right away. Liberty City in GTA 3 is also divided into three boroughs, comprising 25 defined districts and neighborhoods, while having an outskirts of the city all having different names for it's islands, streets, landmarks, gangs, and boroughs compared to the GTA IV counterpart which has four Boroughs all with there own names only connection between these two renditions is the name Liberty City they may as well be separate places. The GTA 3 version is more of a unique city which could've co existed with places like New York kind of like how Gotham City from D.C and Lost Heaven and Empire Bay from Mafia co exist with places like New York and Chicago. With the GTA IV's version it's just a parody of New York meaning it's impossible for New York and other parody cities to exist in the GTA Universe. This pretty much counters out the concept of GTA 3 being in the same continuity as GTA IV as pretty much everything about the city would've had to change in just 5 years at the max with both GTA SA and GTA Vice City using the GTA 3 rendition of Liberty City.

[@wendellnovais]

Rockstar only created this "different universes" bullshit because before GTA V was launched people were going crazy over the possibility of CJ being in GTA V because the game was set in San Andreas,it's just a lame excuse to not bring back old characters and deal with their voice actors,all the games are connected.

Having fictional cars in open world games is indeed mix of smart business and fun, but also allow developers to name them whatever they like and make every parts such as bumper, doors, trunk, hood, side mirrors, etc fully detachable. I like how open worlds like Burnout, Grand Theft Auto, Just Cause, Saints Row,, Sleeping Dogs, Watch_Dogs has fictional brands, often parodying real life brands and/or even combining multiple brands. Bogen from Watch_Dogs seem to be multiple European cars and brands combined, for example Bogen 200 seems to besed off a Ford Ka, while Bogen 50 is based off a MINI Cooper. Vapid from GTA is clearly based off Ford, but they do take inspiration from Chevrolet and Dodge. Strangely Youga Classic isn't even made by Vapid, despite being based off a Ford Econoline

Crazy that you made this video and your one of my new favorite KZbinrs... I've been pretty hooked to gta lately

[@nicksaffari4412]

it's always a treat when dark space and badger upload!

[@davidgouyaie8027]

its what make me play gta5 even if not playing online.. the detail and parody in its world, every single things from a simple sign is a parody of something, the design and immersion is so great its the perfect Role playing world if you want.. am sure do it won't denied it.. 2 hours doing nothing and listening or watching their tv is great time spent.. ❤📺👍🙂

[@gummi9948]

When you hang out with either Jimmy or Lamar, They'll sometimes talk about how Grove Street used to belong to the families. Also an npc in the area nearby can say 'OG Johnson' which is a reference to Sweet. Also in franklin's house there is a gold record with OG Loc on it.

I wish you listed the actual examples of HD characters mentioning 3D characters. In the video you just said that happens and that's it.

This video is insane. What a great script, editing, voices...

Exceptional work!!! I am just starting to re-enter this universe with The GTA Trilogy: Definitive Edition (Vice City, San Andreas and GTA 3) Amazing Context as well.

[@tinyrhysherbert7537]

Been waiting on this video, a video that delves into the *actual* GTA universe and lore outside of the perspective of the protagonists.

[@SpuddyWesker]

i always thought "CNT" was meant to be CNN and weasel is clearly a parody of fox news

[@ThexDynastxQueen]

CNT doesn't do news tho, it's all shows and reality TV so I always felt it more like various other 3 letter channels who do the same like say TLC.

[@SpuddyWesker]

@@ThexDynastxQueen good point, i think now it might just be all of the above a amalgamation of TLC,TNT , CNN and TBS even with some just being the fonts and name similarities basically what they said in the video seems to be correct. until now i always thought it to be cnn but what dark space says and you just said makes sense and i tend to agree.

[@DNA.WARCRY]

CNT is a parody of TNT Also CNT being short for “C*NT”

Sorry to be That Guy but it's pronounced "Pisswasser", the ß represents a double s (not a b) so translated it means "piss-water". Outstanding video otherwise. Crammed full of as much affection and detail, much like the universes it discusses. Kudos, gentlemen!

[@7ikhill]

no one talks about gta vice city stories and vice city, the story behind the two and how they link and the characters is just amazing. I grew up playing vcs on the psp and played vice city after and was shocked to know that vic vance died at the start. Personally i think its the best gta out them all

[@IskenderCaglarM41B441]

[@cartierglizzy6641]

One thing I feel they really missed out on in gta 5 was car dealerships from gta 4 it would make buying cars more realistic than just ordering it off a phone you could give us the option buy it there and test drive the car before buying so you know if you want to buy it I wish they would make that a thing

[@cartierglizzy6641]

And before anyone’s says LS Car meet and auto shop stfu it’s not the same it’s like a slap in the face to the people who want the feature there’s serval used car dealership locations that they could let us buy like a business and renovate it too an actual dealership and we can sell cars to Npcs and other players online with ways to set the pricing similar forza horizons auction house that’s another way they could make cars buyable too in a more realistic way than ordering it off a damn iFruit phone even tho now with stuff like carvana (or However you spell it) it’s becoming more of a reality

Welp time to break out my GTA’s again. Especially GTA 4 and the dlc with it. Fantastic story telling and truly immersive experience

[@shadowblade9385]

I absolutely love how the GTA 1 soundtrack seems to go above and beyond what is normally expected of a video game soundtrack. It’s just an analogue of different music and formats, but it completely blows it out of the water. It’s like an LSD trip in audio form. It’s like it has the quality of a big long budget production crammed into 7 minute segments. It’s just incredible! And sends shivers down my spine!

[@dark_hood7]

25:37 actually those lights are called "ufolights" in the game's files. There are three files on the GTA:SA disk called "ufolight1" and "ufolight2" and "ufolight3", nothing about a plane.

[@TheMelMan]

For me, San Andreas was peak emersion. I might need to make a video on how I feel about that game 😅 1:06 In the recent online DLC, Franklin talks about events from San Andreas so I think they were either just dropping it as fan service or they gave up on that hardline between the 3D and HD universes.

[@Xegethra]

It can be two universes still. If a city can get two universe equivalents then so can people and events. Clones of each other sort of.

[@TheMelMan]

@@Xegethra That's possible. I just imagined that things changed. San Andreas is over 20 years in the past so it's possible that the city just evolved.

[@aveteranplayer6403]

I having problem with some rtards that says all of them takes place in the same universe. Even some said that RDR takes place in the same universe as GTA, but if you think about people doesn't theorize the multiverse of this series. The time travel guy from RDR2 is not just time travel, he is also a multiverse traveller. That makes, you can see in the figures in the wall that he gets to portal to several timelines.

[@lix0347]

I recall in rdr2 Dutch mentions they get money and get a ship to New York. Not liberty city. Which means that there should be a New Orleans in rdr2 but there is saint denis. It’s weird what they choose to keep true and fake.

[@themadtitan7603]

Rockstar in the Multiverse of Madness

[@automation7295]

@@lix0347 Seems like Rockstar can't figure out RDR should've real name or fiction. I don't get why Rockstar using real life city names instead of fictional names like Liberty City?

[@CaptainAmercia]

@@lix0347 Yeah if you read books for example Otis Miller and the Boy from New York it even mentions famous New York landmarks such as the Brooklyn Bridge while a few characters mention Manhattan. Liberty City was also named "Liberty City" around the time of the American Revolutionary War (GTA IV lore) nearly 200 years before the events of RDR1 and RDR2 so if Liberty City did exist they would've mentioned it instead of New York.

[@Xegethra]

They could be the same universe, but that would mean New York exists alongside Liberty City. Which I don't really have a problem with, plenty of real places get referenced in GTA and even seen with London and Manchester. Not to mention music artists that come from New York are on the radio. They could be like sister cities but they exist in the same world. But that's just if the two games are set in the same world. If they aren't then no matter really. Manhunt and Bully exist in the GTA 3D universe so maybe Read Dead can exist in GTA HD's universe.

[@schalitz1]

The immersion is completely gone especially in online. Got on recently for the first time in a while for the new dlc its literally all children and man childs flying around on oppressors blowing you up. I'm pretty much done with it ruined a perfectly decent game.

[@RandomPerson0646]

Ditto, Got on today, Half the Lobby sounded like children, and bloody hell, the mk2s are relentless. Just trying to make cash is basically, try to survive every mk2 who can see your location

[@chindaddyisdaddy2758]

Just go into an invite only lobby or do a solo public glitch

[@frensplace5576]

Plus with more recent DLCs they’re bringing more real life characters and brands now into GTA Online and making them centric around the game and breaking immersion of the fake logos and not making satirical characters anymore. Every DJ back then was a parody of real life but now it’s like they want to imitate it instead of doing their own thing

[@tootlingturtle7254]

[@slavicfixer8438]

Zombotech building wasn't based on RE "Movie" Umbrella, but RE Games Umbrella Corp. It's kinda disappointing that someone is actually taking Paul W.S. Anderson fanfiction with Milla Jovovic as a serious adaptation, when it doesn't have a lot in common with true Resident Evil franchise. It's more likely reference to the games, since Capcom was distributing GTA games in Japan.

[@peterdaviesracing]

I am not a major fan, but having seen the first movie and comparing it to the game franchise it was "based" on(really but not really), it's kind of another game-turned-movie disappointment. So I'd agree it more likely would refer to a famous fellow game franchise than a meh movie(and its continuations).

[@ovidiuz34]

I always found it hilarious how you cannot swim in GTA 3, Vice City and Liberty City Stories but you can swim in GTA San Andreas and Vice City Stories and how they came up with excuses with fake websites about pollution and sharks and shit when in reality it was just laziness...

[@minignoux4566]

Or them not knowing that well the hardware? When making GTA3 the devs amready thought they pushed the console to the maximum; and then Vice Cuty happened, and the San Andreas.
