The game is just about shooting, driving and stealing shit. It is not this out this world experience haha. The amount of "GTA coming out some day" content that I get is way too much.

GTA was never an RPG, it's an action game with shooting and driving things.

It really can't be compared to Cyberpunk which is really focused in the RPG elements, making choices in every single sidequest out there, making your own character build with skill trees, items, body mods etc.

They're completely different genres, which is also why so many people got infuriated when Cyberpunk came out because it was not the Next GTA™ game they were expecting, even though Cyberpunk never really marketed to be like that.
