Today I decided to give the game a proper start and I have completed few missions. I'm not going to lie I don't enjoy this game. The only path that will lead you to finish is through killing, stealing, shooting, killing some more... and more and more... At least that's what my sister told me (hardcore fan of the game). I only completed few beginning missions and here in this log I will describe one of them.
In this particular mission the goal is to find and kill the dealer who is selling drugs on Groove Street . So I went with Ryder(friend) to find the dealer and kill him. When I found him he was carrying a baseball bat, which was not a big obstacle because I got a pair of fists which is way more effective than a baseball bat(???). After beating up the guy to death I took his baseball bat. Then Ryder explained that this dealer is running with the local gang Front Yard Ballas OG. This became my next mission to go to the dealers place which was occupied by gang members, hookers and other dealers. So I went with my baseball bat, and beat up everybody to death because goal was to leave no survivors. We don't want any evidence. I had to retry this mission few times but eventually I managed to bit the crap out of everybody and went along to the next mission. I forgot to mention at the beginning why are we doing this?. We are doing this due to very good and honorable cause, to clean the street out of the drug dealers. Ryder is very passionate and worried about Groove Street families.
All the missions I played so far are concentrated on gang activities. I don't know how will the plot expand throughout next missions but it has a potential to become an interesting story (for people who like this type of stuff).
For me this is just to simple and to obvious. Violence I this game is not a factor that would pull me away or closer to the game. The part I don't like is that it revolves around gang activities which is very stereotypical to American cities. Every major city has its gangs and this subject became popular in many games and movies. I don't enjoy riding in the car to different parts of cities to kill all kinds of people or do some stupid activity like painting a gang sign with a spray can.
My sister told me that it will get more interesting as we go along with next missions but still, I don't think that it will become a game I would actually recommend to somebody.
