  Same tbh. I’ve always heard raves about the story side of GTA, and as someone who primarily plays single-player, story-driven games, i just dont get it. RDR1 and 2 showed me Rockstar (anyone, honestly) can do so much better. The story serves the purpose of putting players in quests and that’s about it. V was a treat, but mainly because I grew up in and around LA and it was pretty accurately recreated. Otherwise, you’re right, it’s pretty much the same shtick but more modern.

  I’ll probably play VI in a few years if it goes on super-sale or i sail the seas for it, but I’m right there with you on not getting the hype.

  Same, except I bounced off somewhat earlier at first. Have nowhere near your hours though.

  Also Death Stranding. Excellent game once I was in the right headspace.

  To clarify, the import is through a 3rd party. I paid like 2 extra bucks to subscribe to them for the 1 month minimum, took a few more clicks to import my entire playlist library. Really easy and high-value for the effort it saved, easy to unsubscribe, it did what it said on the box. But it threw me off since it was unexpected.

  Also, about 95% of the library made it over, but a small percentage either aren’t on Tidal yet or didn’t have that exact version of a song with like 4 out there. A few songs got replaced by karaoke or covers as well, but they were few and far between. Just a heads up it can happen though. Just had to track them down and replace.

  But as a listener and user, my experience has been almost entirely unaffected otherwise. And I have relatively niche taste in music, so I was surprised. They have curated playlists to explore and expand my taste, almost identical playlist creation features to Spotify, lossless playback, lyrics, artist info/bio, etc. Recently added custom pictures for playlists like Spotify has. Do not regret the switch at all.

  Are they trying to speedrun their way to the bottom of the public opinion barrel? Already had low hopes after the takeover debacle, now even that is gone
