GTA flop

I'm bored with GTA, it's not the fun game I thought it was. For starters, the current number of weapons is limited. For a game that challenges you to beat the main story UNDER thirty minutes is asking a lot out of me to only use a few weapons in the game. Another problem stems from the lack of things to do in the city. Take Jak 2 for example, yes the city was small in comparison to GTA but there was something to do in every area, even if that meant a simple fetch quest or race. A third problem comes from the slow pacing. I want to get to the good stuff, the car races, the extra activities, the fun stuff. Right now I'm still doing odd jobs for people for bout a thousand dollars, It's a step up from when I did stuff for one hundred dollars but I'm still not rich. Where's my mansion? Where's my collection of cars? Where the stuff I can purchase besides ammo and clothes? I want to collect stuff and decorate my house! Are you telling me that I can't do that stuff in a game that received universal acclaim?!? Another problem for me comes from the city itself, I feel dirty just walking around. When I play Sleeping Dogs, I feel immersed in Hong Kong, not crummy. And yet another problem is the graphics. Why does everything look like crap? My final problem is with the story. What do I care about Nico our intrepid hero? Why do I HAVE to be a bad guy, can't I do something nice too? It may sound weird but balance is what makes an open world game fun for me.
I'll give this game one last chance Sunday, after that, I'm going for Saints Row.
