gta 4 in 2025

[Hamada]

is the game worth it in 2025? i heard people saying its repetitive and boring missions

Its got a certain charm. Its a microcosm of its time, a little slice of the 00s which is nice revisit.

The gunplay and rag dolls are leagues better than GTA5, the driving for me is satisfying to master (though your mileage may vary), and its graphics are quite nice even today.

Its quite short though, only 10-15hours to get the main campaign dusted.

And it runs like ass on modern systems without modding (see guides section for good tips and mods to get it stable 60fps and looking great).

I recommend it, especially if its on sale.

I was going to ask the same since I see a lot of people complaining about the bugs...

Now its 6€ but I guess ill wait a bit more, after I upgrade my pc maybe ill give it a try.

I think this old laptop cant run it properly

Really do FusionFix and (further) framecap; see that massive issues list.

It’s so much fun, I’ve enjoyed every second of it. Took me around 40 hours to finish campaign along with just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ around and doing side quests and whatnot. Had some issues with running it though and to bypass it I had to run as administrator through the playgtaiv file in my local files. Just a precaution in case you run into the same issue.

Just make sure you install FusionFix before actually playing it to fix the borked ass PC port.

it is. they are.

but the story, the characters, the atmosphere, the charm are unmatched.

I earlier today finished the story for the 5th or maybe even 6th time (in 10 years or so) and I must admit that this time the latter part with the tired mafia crap got to be almost too much.

A mission like "Catch the wave" that has you drive a slow ass truck all the way over the map just to have your partner rush in to the action and get himself killed... making you drive the same slow ass truck all over the map again, just to get your partner killed in his boat... making you drive the same slow ass truck all over the map again, just to...

Ouch. Quite a bit of that part of the game really sucks. It's actually a major accomplishment how the game then in three last missions pulls you back in far enough to, almost, forget that part again. Almost. I like the game for story/atmosphere as well, but my advise to new players is to in fact be completionist about the game; do the side-missions, races, screw around, ....

If you don't like I did not now you do need some real tolerance for poor cliche writing to sit through all the mafia crap.

you played it 5 times. and now you talk about it in a very passionate way. that's what i'm talking about :)

Oh, yes, certainly don't get me wrong; would be one of the first to find this to be one of the up to now best video-games.

But that damn Phil Bell...

I love GTA IV but after a few replays of the story, the repetitive nature of its mission design becomes very noticeable.

[unknownhero1123]

It's the last great GTA game in my opinion.

It is a subjective perspective.

For me, GTA4 is the best GTA

Story, missions and friendships.
