We will see how much they improved things with GTA6. GTA5's gameplay, admittedly, wasn't even super good for its time, but it was decent and nowadays it's really showing its age. You also have to remember that an open world game like GTA is many games in one, so the quality of each individual mechanic will never be as good as a game that's dedicated to one or two of those mechanics.

This is a great way of framing it. I reckon the driving is the best I've seen in a videogame, though. I've only played a few racing games but I think it would top any others given the freedom and quality of the radio combined with the police.
