What i love and hate about the new game.
+ Taxi allows us to get to shops/destinations/mission spots etc. instantly for a small fee.
+ Missions can be restarted quickly if failed.
+ Driving carelessly can Kill yourself.
+Shooting ahead of yourself while in cars.
+Cover system
+Target system
+pedestrians are individuals (face, clothing)
+pedestrians have lives and carry out tasks like normal people (e.g cleaning, talking, throwing gardbage on the streets, taking pictures)
+No loading times when moving into shops or different areas of the map
-Handbrake makes me spin
-Cornering is awkward
- Can't understand the rhasta
-Less character cutomisation
+decent storyline
+Moral decisions (kill or not kill)
+Keeping guns whn you die
-default walking (prefer default jogging)
-Should tell us what weapon in on the floor so we know if we want to replace
+Seperate gun and ammunition costs
-Not enough things to buy (including housing and businesses)
-text is too small on mobile and computer
-aeroplanes are inaccessible
+Various ways to break into cars and their consequences
+More responsive NPC's (NPC wanting to fight because you walk into them or crash into them)
-Cant shoot people ahead of the character unless the camera is facing the same way as your character (i rather this be the other way round...i shoot what my character sees, not what i see)
-driving seems slow than in previous games and bad concerning means excessive braking is necessary despite feeling your going slow already.
-Needs pre-set camera angles (we have manual, default (character centralisation) and some sort of movie camera)
I haven't finished the game and will probably add to the list as i remember what other aspects of the game i like, and what new aspects of the game i like.

Human Gods
What is God?
To me, a god is someone who can create and destroy and is an entity of higher power who is both omnipotent and benevolent. When i think of god, i think of someone who created the Earth and the universe and thus created everything we know and see.
I see him as both potentially good and evil, or balanced.
This is not to say i believe in the existence of a god/s, but this is how i would imagine a god to be.
My thought is, aren't humans then fundamentally gods.
Through reproduction we can create. Through murder we can destroy.
We can plant trees and then cut them down.
Therefore like a god, we can both create and destroy, maybe not on the same scale but we are still in a early phase of our life cycle in my opinion and with time, will come greater understanding and greater change.
I had also believed a god to be of higher power, and by no means are humans equal. We are divided by wealth, fame, knowledge etc.
A human god would combine all in order to have the power rule among men.
I believe we are all god in our own rights. We all have the power to create and destroy and we all shape our own futures. We are our own god and we can become others with intent and perhaps someday, a human will rise to become our single god, who will claim our sovereignty willingly or forceably by uniting Earth under his leadership.
