Again, this is a Grand Theft Auto game. A game where anybody can feed any odd, sociopathic thoughts they may have. You know what takes any of the fun out of this? Making the game a goddamned relationship sim. Again, I understand how immersive this makes the game feel (oooh, look, people get mad at me if I don’t call them, just like real life), but I am not looking for a GTA game to be The Sims: Crime Edition. I am looking for a GTA game to provide me escape from the stinging pangs of reality. And nothing reminds me of my own reality more than somebody calling me, pissed off about God-knows-what. That’s the story of my life.

And if I remember correctly, if you missed enough calls from someone, or didn’t take them f*cking bowling, they would cut you off from whatever they may have supplied. I specifically remember a side character who wouldn’t hook me up with guns because we didn’t go out enough. Again, like stated in prior examples, are you f*cking kidding me?

And if you do go so far as having characters in GTA V that I need to maintain a relationship with, then you need to present me with the option (like in Fallout or Skyrim) to kill this character if I see fit. In other words, you call me and bitch me out enough for not going to do some menial mini-game with you, I WILL show up at your virtual residence and murder you in some awful way.

THAT is the only way that will be okay. Fine, if I can piss these people off, I also have the ability to maim them and remove them from the game, even if it lessens my game time.
