Not fussed tbh
They've struck a comfortable design template with these games so each subsequent release is simply more of the same. They create this expansive detailed worlds full of rich characters, but you are hamstrung by the rigidly contained storyline.
The perfect example is any mission where you fail but don't die (ie the guy got away, or the guy you're protecting dies) result in you having to repeat the exact same mission, as opposed to the game continuing and the circumstances changing. And this is due to the developers wanting to pack these games with cinematic content - cut scenes, soundtracks, scripted dialog delivered by known actors - which results in the game holding your hand from set piece to set piece. And even within those set pieces you can be incredibly restricted by what you're allowed to do.
Would love a GTA where you start out as an oddjob scrub and work your way up, gathering your own crew, making your own alliances, cutting your own deals, and building your own criminal empire. Get rid of all the cut scenes and scripting, and introduce a little individuality.
