ItsGhoulUK Grand Theft Auto V Review

Dec 24, 2025
Story Mode is great and enjoyable, the online experience however, is not. Online is nothing but grief and suffering, made worse by constant service issues, connection errors, save and load failures, etc. Missions online are unrewarding, often painfully difficult due to unfun mechanics such as poor stealth gameplay or infinite enemies, or they simply require a minimum of 4 players, so if you have very few friends or like to play solo you miss out on half the content online has. Then there's the times where you'll complete a mission and not get the money, or the game will error halfway through, or you'll not be able to complete a mission because the game has bugged out. these are issues that have been occurring to players since DAY 1, that was now 12 YEARS ago. Rockstar has shown a lack of care for it's player-base by not dealing with these issues, even more so when they show the capability to fix things but only seem to do so if the issue in question affects the player-base in a positive way. it feels like rockstar wants you to suffer, give up, and then hand them your entire life savings and left kidney for shark cards. this has me concerned for the state of any of Rockstar's games especially the upcoming release of GTA 6, will rockstar actually deliver a fun and functional game or will it be another bug infested nightmare like this game still is?
