    It’s hilarious how the only way to get new cars in a game literally titled “stealing cars” is to buy them for absurd amounts of money.

    • it’s dumb that you can’t steal-to-own newer super cars like in every previous iteration, but you can just steal them and drive the shit out of them. i set my spawn to that shitty 2 car garage near the casino parking lot, because it always has really nice cars to steal. i drive stolen cars more like an asshole anyway, like sideswiping a bunch of parked cars in it, etc.

      buying cars and garages and decorating them is rich people funko-collection b.s. anyways. the real meta of games anymore is to figure out the no-cost/low-effort method to having fun instead of being tricked into the money sink treadmill. every bozo with a $2 million fully loaded supercar deserves to have a $250 grenade chucked under it.

      something i miss from the game engine in 4 is how deformed cars would get after accidents and the mechanism for seat belts / being thrown through the windshield. that was an incredible detail they never should have gotten rid of. they do something similar with helmets on motorcycles, but it’s not the same.
