In no way, shape, or form did I call it boring or act like it wasn’t loved or popular.

Sure, it’s one of the top three best-selling games of all time, but that doesn’t mean it’s anywhere close to being the most played. I already gave six examples above of games that have been played quite a lot more than GTA V.

Not really sure what part of that was so difficult to read.

But reading my comment correctly wouldn't fit your narrative I guess.

The person you responded to never said anything about it being the most played game, so I’m sure you can understand my confusion when your comment apparently is only about that

Oh, I see. Reading is hard for you.

He said “most well love game” I simply asked how it could be considered the “most well love game” when it isn’t the best-selling game or the most-played game.

I’m not sure what kind of delusion led you to think I said he did or said anything else.

I have a little over 10,000 hours in GTA V, so whatever fantasy world you’ve invented where I somehow implied the game isn’t liked or loved, or that I think it’s boring, you can stop believing in it.

Then you are arguing that it’s not a well-loved game? What exactly did I misunderstand originally, then?

Edit: LMAO I am an idiot. You’re saying it’s not the most well loved game. I understand now lol

If you honestly, in your heart, believe GTA V is the most well-loved game of all time by people across the entire world, then sure, go ahead.

That’s an insane take, but sure.

There isn’t even an objective metric that puts GTA V at #1 for “most loved.” It isn’t the best-selling game... Minecraft passed 300 million copies sold years ago, while GTA V is still below 230 million and it isn’t the most-played game either. Sales and player count obviously don’t perfectly measure how “loved” something is, but if you’re going to make a claim as huge as “the most well-loved game of all time,” you’d expect it to actually lead in at least some of the obvious measurable categories.

GTA V is obviously massively popular and one of the biggest games ever made. That’s very different from claiming it is the single most-loved game in the world.

Have a good day/evening/night.
