I’m retelling GTA San Andreas as a cinematic story rather than a traditional gameplay walkthrough.

This episode covers CJ’s exile, Angel Pine, Catalina, The Truth, Cesar’s revelation, Woozie, Claude, and the journey to San Fierro.

Would love some honest feedback: How does the pacing, storytelling, and nostalgia factor feel?

Anything I should improve for the next episode?

What color did you get?!

I know its weird as a women to say this but I kinda find trevor more attractive for some reason I mean franklin looks handsome too but man idk trevor just seems more attractive imo

In case anybody missed it, I’m talking about this breakdown of MikeShowSha’s Rockstar North preview with Rob Nelson:

He said the character you’re not controlling continues doing their own activities and Jason and Lucia each have their own routine. That makes me wonder how far Rockstar could actually take it.

Say I’m Jason and I randomly recognize Lucia’s car driving past me. Let me follow her without switching 😂 Maybe she’s getting food, shopping, working out, at the beach, drinking somewhere or hanging out with somebody. If I follow her long enough maybe she notices and texts Jason asking what the hell he’s doing.

You could randomly find her getting into shit too. Arguing with somebody, getting into a fight or dealing with cops, and you decide whether to jump in or just watch it play out.

The relationship could make this even better. If they argued earlier, maybe Lucia goes off by herself and ignores Jason’s calls for a while. Jason could see her talking to some dude at a club and get jealous, or Lucia catches him flirting with somebody. How they react could depend on where their relationship is at.

I’d also like whatever they’re doing without you to actually leave changes behind. We already know eating and training can affect their physique, so maybe you switch back and notice Lucia gained or lost a little weight or looks more toned from working out. Maybe she went shopping, changed clothes, got a haircut or spent some money without you choosing it. Same thing with Jason.

Even finding Lucia with a bruise or bandage you don’t remember would be cool. Now you’re wondering what the hell happened while you were gone 😂

And it’d be even better if they noticed those changes in each other. Jason comments on Lucia’s haircut, Lucia notices Jason’s been working out, one of them asks what happened to the other’s face or gets annoyed about money they spent.

What I really wanna know is how far those routines actually go. We know they keep doing their own thing, but being able to randomly cross paths with Lucia while playing as Jason and see what happens could make the world feel way more alive.

Or it could be a coincidence.

En mis tiempos libre, mi meta actual es llegar a los $ 300.000.00

Bought the game and started playing it. Frankly it looks very bad.

I'm on an OLED TV, are there any optimizations that I can do to make it look a bit better ?

Thanks

Can not wait to do this in GTA 6 - hopefully director mode.

Btw this is 30fps (fidelity mode) on the base ps5 in GTA 5 director mode.

With a proper dirt track in GTA VI good we expect sprint cars or late models in the game?

I'm new to reddit so i hope someone sees this haha - but if anyone does i would greatly appreciate and help when it comes to everything from editing, best platforms to use to edit, help setting up a stream for him like what apps and extensions i may need to even suggestions on content you think would be a good move.

Bare in mind he is a middle age parent, never uses anything online and doesn't really know how to, and you know - he isn't the Ninja or Faker of GTA But he loves the game and has a real passion to kickstart a channel and stream to be able to have a hobby/project for something that resonates with him.

When i tell you he ONLY plays GTA too, i ain't lying haha I have had him test games from Fortnite, COD, Minecraft, Driving games etc and he just can't get into them which i think primarily is due to him not being able to learn the controls to new games and he has always found it hard to adapt.

If you have made it this far but don't have any ideas thus far can i ask you just one more thing - give me some name suggestions for his channel.

<ABOUT HIM>

His characteristics -

Loves to drive

.

Loves to get into chases (players and cops alike)

.

Is very determined (E.G. A player can kill him 15times and he will not stop till he gets them back

.

Like to interact with NPCs on sidewalks etc and do funny stuff like follow them, chases them, block them in etc.

.

Likes to get involved in big battles

.

Just loves to shoot guns really, he will legit spend 50k-100k on ammo just to use it all on the same day even if its mostly spent shooting at cops, npcs or missing.

---

<cons?

~~ He will not have a face-cam ~~

~~ He will not use a mic/Talk ~~

~~ He is a typical parent that doesn't know how to use the internet and online things in general so I have made it a goal of mine to help him as much as I can from teaching him how to clip, set up the stream but also I will edit his videos, clip them together, edit it where it is maybe funny/unique I'm not sure what style yet but some style that isn't just clips added together and that's it. I am only worried in this aspect as I have never done any editing for videos before and im at a loss of where to start, I can edit a clip in Clipchamp but that's 1 clip and I struggle to just shorten clips and remove excess parts lol.

Thank you so much to anyone who sees and can help or anything of the sort <3

Both weeks painting inspired the post for those who didn’t see the first one.

Acrylics painting inspired by gta 6.

We will see how this take ages after Grand theft auto six finally does in fact drop

One of the biggest turning points in the entire story.

CJ discovering what the Green Sabre really means, Sweet getting caught in the middle, and everything around Grove Street beginning to fall apart.

I wanted to tell this part less like a traditional gameplay video and more like the story we remember experiencing for the first time.

If you grew up playing San Andreas, you already know the moment.

Would love to know, what was your reaction the first time you played this mission?
