⭐️⭐️ or ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️? Still can't decide!

I've been playing GTA V since the early days on PC, racking up close to 5000 hours. After a four - year break, I returned and was positively surprised. The game has improved significantly, with more opportunities to make money that don't require endless grinding. The new content adds a fresh layer of fun, especially for those of us who remember how frustrating it used to be.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows. Modders and cheaters are still a huge issue, especially in public lobbies for sell missions. I’ve had my hard - earned cargo wiped out in seconds after spending hours building it up, which really kills the game. Sure, Rockstar introduced BattleEye to tackle this, which gives me some hope for fewer modders. However, it broke online play for Linux users and Steam Deck owners like me. It's incredibly disappointing and unacceptable that the Linux community is being treated this way.

I want to give this game the high rating it deserves, but these issues hold me back. I’ll be keeping an eye on things, and once Linux users get the respect they deserve, I’ll happily change my rating. Until then, it’s a bittersweet experience. Sorry, Grand Theft Auto V.
