    GTA 3 has a silent protagonist and most of the dialogue takes place in mission cutscenes. It’s a very simplistic game in comparison to GTA 4.

    If you’re after a grounded experience with characters that feel real, then yes it paid off.

      I was thinking more which had the better gameplay. All else is fluff around that IMO.
      Diablo II for instance had very minor story and dialogue, but is an all time classic.

        Why you asking if the larger script made the gameplay better 😆

        It depends what you want from a game. It’s okay to like a game primarily for story or primarily gameplay, both are valid.

        GTA IV had both, but imo its gameplay is a little bit dated these days. I know people still love the gameplay loop in GTA V, but personally I’m basically done with it.
