What do these people think they gain?

Whats the point?

Do they really just want to ruin stuff for everyone?

Yeah, I’m reminiscing because I was reminded of that particularly fun period in my life. Nothing to do with the main topic.

Have you tried gtao with mods/cheats? Its the only game that I happily “cheat in” because when I play, I just want to have fun with the new things. Also keeps you safe from other modders, and I’ve made quite a few friends just being able to enjoy the game and not grind.

I haven’t played GTAO, but maybe I’ll check it out. Thanks for the tip.
