I have played this game for 5k+ hours across three accounts (2 Steam & 1Epic), and oh boy GTA Online has gotten worse at some point. I can't pinpoint exactly when, but it's probably close to the Gunrunning DLC.

1. It's difficult to enjoy freemode due to several issues:
- There are too many spam messages from players. They don't just appear in the chat; they actually send messages to your in-game phone, which is noisy and frustrating
- There are also tons of hackers (not modders (ones who only use cheat to get capital)). It's frustrating when someone teleports to you or explodes the entire lobby within minutes.

2. They removed most of the cars from the purchasing site and made it available behind paywall (real money paywall) ffs

3. The cost of vehicles has increased significantly (new bike cost >1 mil), a bike ffs it used to cost in the thousands not millions. That and they nerfed cayo perico (The best source of in game capital)
