driving in gta 5 feels like i'm driving a loving brick that never breaks. probably the worst simulation of driving in my opinion. gta 4 wins in simulation of driving and crash body physics.
It's not gta is supposed to some driving simulator anyway nor was it ever in the past. People seem to have a problem with the handling in IV, but personally I thought it was okay for the type of game it was.
so you prefer fantasy over simulation in terms of driving?
Generally if the cars are easier to handle and more well suited to the map then people will have more fun. Besides its loving gta, I want to go fast, take turns with ease, and do cool stunts, not drive like I'm commuting to work.
