gta fans forgot the jokes were always obvious

People are rewriting old GTA as subtle comedy made for professors. Bro the store was called Ammu-Nation. The Statue of Liberty had a coffee cup. Half the radio ads were somebody screaming the joke at you. Rockstar was never above dumb parody. That was the charm. A fake social app full of idiots and an NPC livestreaming his own arrest sounds exactly like GTA. The real test is whether the characters are funny when nothing explodes. Trevor stomping around was not the only kind of joke in V. Random mission dialogue and background arguments did more than people remember. Fans will call it too safe if it doesn't insult their least favorite person specifically. Then call it cringe when it does. impossible audience.
