GTA V: 10 Unfortunate Consequences Of Living In Los Santos
6. Rampages Are An Everyday, Nonchalant Thing
The horrible thing about violence is that its random and inexplicable. Yet while Los Santos appears to have a monopoly on the latter term, the former doesnt really have a place in this world. Oftentimes, you can pretty much pinpoint the exact location where the most extravagant, scenery-chewing carnage will go down. Its basically wherever Trevor chooses to enact a rampage, and whats curious is that its always the same location. Aside from the fact that Mr. Phillips feat of utter lunacy would cost the city a hefty packet German insurance firm Allianz recently concluded the average playthrough (basically, not roided-up and semi-invincible with infinite grenades) would cost around $8 million an hour in damages whats weird is that no-one seems to bat an eyelid when Trevor goes on his regular-as-clockwork murder sprees. Apparently, repeatedly taking bullet-soaked vengeance on hipsters doesn't even warrant an extra cop on the street corner with a tranquiliser rifle, but thems the brakes, I guess. But what does this imply? Well apparently, it means that this sort of pants-on-head ridiculousness is pretty much standard behaviour in these parts. I know most people dont like hipsters or gangsters, but such a casual reaction to mindless, explode-y slaughter is pretty terrifyingly lax. Surely after the first incident stick his face on a few wanted posters, guys? That way at least you wont be surprised when his murder conga takes him to the outside of a military base. You should be enacting a shoot-on-sight policy, not mocking his Canadian accent.
