Despite the wider mockery, I have to admit I get it. I don't like playing bad guys in games either. I'm well aware it's just a game, but I like to get into games and immerse myself in the mindset. I don't like being the bad guy.
Also sometimes tried to be a real bad guy in games, but couldn't do it.
About being the bad guy, I recently saw this "funny" episode: youtu.be/KdD7aLrDtBo
I actually agree with Elon. I only play gta to troll the ppl being pricks.
I don't find any fun in majority of the stupid things the game wants you to do.
