So that's why you don't play GTA. I don't agree, but you do you.

To get back on topic, why don't you play older games as you said. That's specifically what the other user asked.

Maybe I should've clarified something, as the older games were included due to the fact that GTA's writing, content and mechanics were just disgusting. On top of that, I wouldn't do any of that stuff in real life, let alone in something like GTA.

So you wouldn't do anything in a video game that you wouldn't do in real life?

I think you need to see a therapist if you have that much trouble differentiating fact from fiction

I do, in fact, have the ability to separate art from the artist. GTA, however, has desensitized gang culture and crime for everyone who's played it.

There are so many studies disproving that assertion that I can't take you seriously
