GTA 5 does not look like a better product to me.
GTA V story mode was an excellent game, but itβs hard to realistically say a game from one genre is better than another, apples and oranges and all that.
GTA Vβs online multiplayer, however, at this point is such a shitstain that I think it alone is enough to make the distinction clear.
I agree.
It is. But only in so far as the content and scope of the game far surpasses anything a smaller developer could ever hope to accomplish. You may prefer one over the other, totally fine, but objectively speaking you get way more out of gta 5 content and scope wise than bg3.
As others point out gta online is a dumpster fire but itβs still massive and allows you to do endless amounts of things, racing, heists, owning property, running businesses, etc.
More content doesn't mean better, especially when that content isn't the kind that I find enjoyable.
