GTA V is more than twice the size of SA and it's just LA and the outskirts. SA fukked up by having all that shyt so close and then it be so small. Las Venturas is small as fukk and most of the outskirts has zero purpose outside of random ass missions.
SA used what it had to the fullest and it ended up being a classic. Obviously there were other things missing like not having Oakland next to SF but these were things that should’ve been resolved in the next gen consoles. No excuses now imo and while it’s cool that the cities are bigger I still feel like a cross country game is a more lit experience.
Hell, the mission where you fly from LS to Liberty City was lit too. I’m just saying what’s the problem with incorporating other cities like Chicago, DC, Houston, New Orleans, etc? I think styling it like SA where you have to do work in all those different cities and the rural areas in between is more fun than the redundancy of not just one city, but one city that we had already played in on previous games.
