Same. That's why the hype always surprises me, it just seems to be on another level compared to other games. But among people who play games regularly, I don't know too many who would say GTA is their favorite.

Maybe all there is to it is that it’s extremely mid

The lowest common denominator of games

Like the fast food of gaming I guess?

Haha it reminds me of Chick Fil A recently launching a chicken-and-waffles sandwich. Massive hype, and I got stuck in a 20 car drive thru line due to people lining up for it (I didn't realize that they had released a new sandwich when I got in line, otherwise I would have avoided). Since I was there, decided might as well try this new sandwich, and it turned out to be pretty mid. Definitely not worth lining up for.

Haha I like this but unfortunately Rockstar Games does spend a lot of time on their games.

Maybe FIFA is the fast food of games, because there’s a “new” one every year.
