Coming from the online experience of GTA 4 it was amazing to own house with a garage that can store your very own person vehicles. I spent so much time working toward earning enough to purchase that Eclipse Towers apartment. During the early days players spent their time showing off what they had unlocked vs now griefing and blowing everything up. It was really easy then to be placed in bad sport only lobbies.

The most remembered moment for me was when there was a full session and modder gave us snowballs and we had a snowball TDM, it might not be something special but for 11 year old me that didn't have idea snowballs were even ingame, it was everything for me.

I was lucky to start playing this game in 2015, so i know how it feels. I even did those heists with friends or even randoms.. No flying shit, no future tech, that was good

[@hipster_tacos]

I was lucky to play it since launch day. The servers were constantly crashing on day 1. It felt so good to finally get into free roam after the race with Lamar

[@faridagasiyev7042]

@@hipster_tacos damn, lucky man. Sometimes i even want to buy old cars which remind me of those days, don't know why, but i usually like them better. Reasonable prices, more simple design, and nostalgia, maybe. Those cars look like cars, not some space ships which are almost identical. There are some exceptions though, a few new cars which are great

I've always wanted to play GTA 5 due to it's fun and simulated criminal nature. But of course over time it began to rot. So, this gives me hope on ever playing what the young'ins used to experienced back in the day.

Man, first days of GTAO were super fun, regardless of how chaotic they were. Also, feels weird feeling nostalgia towards a game that's still up and running, with new DLCs coming out. Haven't played it in years though, due to toxicity and lack of people that just want to RP a little instead of blowing up everything in sight for no reason.

We should have such barebones version of GTA 5 on PC, for low spec computers. Just 20-30gb of drive taken up, slightly worse visuals, no stupid bloat from Online dlc's if you just want to play singleplayer and lower requirements on top of that. OG PC release was twice the size already of PS3 version at 60gb, now its 100gb. Its ridiculous.
