If a modded version of its predecessor can be made to look better than the main game of its successor, what can the PC community do for the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V?
Being the most highly anticipated entry into Rockstar's flagship franchise, Grand Theft Auto V was met with unprecedented commercial success and critical reception. Despite its mainstream popularity however, the game is far from perfect. It's packed to the brim with features, and yet the game is missing some essential core components, ranging from annoying oversights to core mechanical failures and a disappointing narrative. Some of these core problems can't really be fixed, but there's plenty of room for improvement for this bestseller. Luckily, there's a real chance for some of these improvements to be made now that Rockstar has announced an updated version of Grand Theft Auto V for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. With more development time and better hardware, we may yet see improvements that make this game worth buying again for those who were slightly disappointed with what the game had to offer. As it's the most powerful platform of the three, this list will focus entirely on the PC port, because it's the version with the most potential. Although the port of Grand Theft Auto IV was very poorly optimised, that didn't stop the community from fixing it and making it look even better than the original console version of its successor, Grand Theft Auto V,with ENBs and texture packs. If a modded version of its predecessor can be made to look better than the main game of its successor, what can the PC community do for the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V? With that kind of potential, what changes can be made to make this game worthy of its hype?
