fin, it is enough to kill some time. They do what they were intended to do and nothing more. They still had lot of other things to do.

I think I am done with Online. It seems Rockstar has given up on it.

I would estimate anywhere from 25-50% of lobbies I get in have at least one guy running a trainer.

I just lose all enjoyment of an experience when I find it is overrun with cheaters.

I know there are those who will say "ignore then and just play the game how you want" but when the online experience is about leveling up to get stronger and access to more stuff, it just ruins any point of the game to be when people can download a trainer and effectively play God.

how is there more to do in Witcher 3 it doesn't even have cars, let alone boats or aircraft

using secondary questlines and monster hunts, there is far more events then gta5 has. And then there are the tons of caches and monster nest and bandit strongholds to clear out. Admittedly these are all run once missions, however unlike gta5 there is heavy quest forking and playing through again can yield many different quest to boot.

IMO however the game takes so long to play through, I would just as soon watch any quest forks I miss on youtube. I can't see me playing witcher 3 through again. ^^

GTA5's online component is pretty serious though, and the racing and flying events are all enjoyable multiple times over, so gta5 has some good repeat content.

Can't you mop up any unfinished business during free roam? Or is it impossible to hit all quests on one playthrough?

I'm not even bothering with GTA Online yet because I'm having so much fun with mods. I love all the little tweaks I've added, especially with significantly more traffic and peds.

The mods online are getting worse and worse. Sometimes I like to sit in my apartment and spectate other players, sending merryweather mercs and muggers after them (hilarious when the mugger steals their cars or helis/jets, especially), and often the people I randomly choose to spectate are flying around hancock style or spawning ufos and shit. Obviously they also have god mode on so my mercs/muggers fail. Then i die while spectating and find an exploded truck in my living room.

Are the cops out of control? I was Trevor and pressed 'E' to make him talk to a cop. Trevor said nice uniform and then the cop arrested him.

GTA keeps messing up for me.

When I try to go online it times out, and kicks me back to story mode.

And I am Michael, in his house, and none of the doors open. Just locked in there walking around.

That golden jet looks pretty cool. Nice interior, and you can smoke cigars and drink champagne with a bunch of people while flying over ls. 10m is a bit steep, however. Osiris is also a bit expensive at 2m. Outfits costing 150k. 35-50k skins for your guns. lulz.
