![Oh Misty! What they did to you?](gta-3-de.jpg)
|
||
|
|
||
|
I have no idea why, but last year the Rockstar team, decided to play a hilarious joke
|
||
|
on us and massacre the 3 iconic GTAs as hard as they could. They messed up the color palette,
|
||
|
changed the characters faces to look like they were from The Simpsons, barely fixed any bugs,
|
||
|
make the jokes more polite, and released this as a Definitive Edition for only (sic!) $59.99.
|
||
|
What do you guys think? Funny? 💀
|
||
|
|
||
|
Maybe a little bit. Also because the 3D Universe GTAs modding community is still alive (or was
|
||
|
recently hehe, because [Rockstar doesn't seem to like it][re3-revc-taken-down]) and over the years has released
|
||
|
many patches/fixes/mods that make it possible to play these amazing games without problems on
|
||
|
new hardware and operating systems. You can just install a few of them and you have your own,
|
||
|
better remaster. Eeeeeee... unless you are a console gamer, then you're at the mercy of Rockstar.
|
||
|
|
||
|
And yeah, I know that original trilogy had cartoonish graphics and didn't try to look super realistic,
|
||
|
but it was all created with style that gave these games a unique vibe and didn't look like Fortnite.
|
||
|
No offence, I also play it sometimes xD. I'm just a bit sad that it's so easy for game companies like
|
||
|
Rockstar to destroy classics and lie to us that it's cool only to make some money.

||

|
### My go-to mods for original trilogy
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
So, as I am a PC player who does not like to spend money on crap, and I often like to return to the
|
||
|
original GTA trilogy, I have created a list of mods that I consider worthy of attention. This
|
||
|
small modpack will allow you to feel the classic atmosphere again, but in better quality, and
|
||
|
without bugs. All for free, thanks to the super cool modding community.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Installation process is quite simple and only requires placing the files in proper directories,
|
||
|
everything is described in ReadMe files. Just keep in mind that some of these work best on 1.0 game
|
||
|
version. So if you have a higher one you will probably have to downgrade it. To find out how to do it
|
||
|
visit each game's page on [PCGamingWiki]. It is also important to lock the in-game FPS to a maximum of
|
||
|
60, this can be done with [LimitAdjuster][limitadjuster] (one of the mods) or a external program like [RTSS][rtss].
|
||
|
Otherwise, you can spot many bugs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Enjoy!
