@death_burnout: I agree. They never make the transition to online well. I thought GTA5 online would be fun but you just end up doing the same 3 missions over and over again and wait for someone to kill you when you finish said missions. I think they REALLY want to find a home in online gaming but just haven't found it yet.
@ssdd_again: I would just stay away from online if I were you. At least single-player is massive and is filled with random acts and random missions. Online is filled with about a 5th of total npc's, you can't go into random houses as all doors are locked, and other issues.
@Rufus_the_rat: I'll tell you who likes online- the people who didn't like the story and how it builded up character. Online is the complete opposite and this fits the kids who have no attention span. And I agree, they should get rid of the player icons on the map. It ruins a lot of the fun in exploring. Maybe in a certain scenario like if a player starts killing random people then alert everyone.
I'm really hoping the "emptiness" is just a beta issue. The traversing across the entire map just to speak with someone was acceptable in the campaign due to having so much to do but is just annoying in online.
I also agree with online pretty much being everything that makes RDR2 not the best game around and really dates it. Controls are definitely clumsy, character doesn't talk, you feel completely disconnected from the world- the last issue being the complete opposite in the single-player mode. In online, I don't care about randomly killing npc's just for free ammo while in the main story I wouldn't do it do to genuinely feeling bad.
The jump from the main story to online is like going from something with true character and real personality to playing fortnite- it's just a huge, hollow world filled with people who want to kill you.
There's far too many feminist/soyboi's/ sensitive pc groups to let this show go on how it did. Sad to say, but this show would end up being the taboo show to watch and probably be viewed as extreme nowadays. What made Michael Scott so likable was him being out-of-touch with anyone else on the planet and offend everyone around him (even people he loved/liked). Kids would end up with PTSD after watching the show now.
