Grand Theft Auto V
Amidst the turmoil, three very different criminals plot their own chances of survival and success: Franklin, a street hustler looking for real opportunities and serious money; Michael, a professional ex-con whose retirement is a lot less rosy than he hoped it would be; and Trevor, a violent maniac driven by the chance of a cheap high and the next big score. Running out of options, the crew risks everything in a series of daring and dangerous heists that could set them up for life. The biggest, most dynamic and most diverse open world ever created, Grand Theft Auto V blends storytelling and gameplay in new ways as players repeatedly jump in and out of the lives of the game’s three lead characters, playing all sides of the game’s interwoven story. All the classic hallmarks of the groundbreaking series return, including incredible attention to detail and Grand Theft Auto’s darkly humorous take on modern culture, alongside a brand new and ambitious approach to open world multiplayer.

Grand Theft Auto V's single-player campaign delivers an exceptional narrative experience following three distinct protagonists - Michael, Franklin, and Trevor. The seamless character switching mechanic adds depth to both storytelling and gameplay. Los Santos is a breathtaking open world that feels alive with incredible attention to detail, from the bustling streets of downtown to the serene Blaine County wilderness. The missions offer great variety, from intense heists to hilarious side activities. The Steam version runs smoothly and includes enhanced graphics, increased draw distances, and improved textures compared to the original release.
The multiplayer component has evolved into a massive entertainment platform. Players can build criminal empires through various businesses like nightclubs, vehicle warehouses, and underground bunkers. The content variety is impressive - racing, deathmatches, heists, adversary modes, and free-roam activities provide endless hours of gameplay. Regular updates have added features like the Diamond Casino, Cayo Perico heist, and The Contract DLC featuring Dr. Dre.
Public lobbies in GTA Online PC feature players using mod menus and cheats. This adds an interesting dynamic where players can utilize various legitimate gameplay options to enhance their experience:
- Private sessions with friends
- Crew-only lobbies
- Solo public sessions for business activities
- Active communities hosting protected sessions
- Regular anti-cheat updates from Rockstar
- Thriving clean-play crews and Discord communities
Technical Aspects:
- Solid 60+ FPS performance on modern hardware
- Extensive graphics options for customization
- Quick loading times with SSDs
- Good mod support for single-player
- Regular updates and patches
- Seamless integration with Rockstar Social Club

i have played over 1,000 hours of GTA5. gotta say i enjoy the immersion, the various challenges, both in story mode and online, but dislike that the more i do, the greater the odds of my businesses getting raided. i would have expected the raids to be based on me gaining wealth or becoming so successful that enemies noticed me but instead the game hits you with a raid simply based on if you fail to multitask quickly enough. *shrug* it is what it is. until sep 17 2024, i would have said that the worst part was the cheaters, however rockstar surprised me. as of today, they demand that i allow some 3rd-party company to gain intimate access to my computer (kernel-level access) or they won't let me play the game i payed for. no way (in very profane terms) has this been necessary for the past 11 years, it's not necessary now, it adds no value to the game, it simply permits spyware to see everything inside my computer, which includes keylogging, personal files, financial records, legal documents, and browser history. nope. i can't go there. the game has been great, i think it is one of the best i've ever played (see previous transmission re: 1,000 hours of game play), but this sort of blackmail should be illegal. i uninstalled the game, dropped to steam to explain why, and will go find something else to play. GTA5, it was good to know you, but then you got weird. i'm out.

I like this game. I really do - it's one of the most fun experiences to play with friends hands down.
But I can't let go of what happened recently.
I got my account suspended, and character deleted, for violating their Terms of Service - I never cheated nor empathized with cheaters and I mostly played alone.
I'm writing this negative review for the negative experience I have been given by support after submitting two support tickets, not only trying to appeal my suspension, but to understand why this had happened. In classic Rockstar fashion, I was not given a direct response. Maybe it's a software I have that conflicted with the new anti-cheat, but I couldn't know for sure. (if they indeed did disclose it I could avoid any future software conflicts, so problem is not solved. Shouldn't take an degree to understand this).
I'm more upset at the time I've spent, while I could've played other games or done other things instead of spending +600 online grinding unhappily on my own. But that's on me.
I feel betrayed and disrespected, this is not how you treat your clients - "best regards", they said.
(very dramatic, I know)
EDIT: after around a week of the second ticket, I received an e-mail regarding the status of my account - my suspension was lifted after Rockstar reviewed my account.
I understand bros cheat a lot, hence the "no ban appeals" policy. But you simply cannot apply these rules for these specific situations. I appreciate whomever reviewed my account.
