They build all this tension and intensity from episodes 1-6 with the Korean storyline on the back-burner. Episodes 7-8 were completely unorganized. Felt like a completely different show. This show would have benefitted from continuing the drama of the 4 core characters and avoiding the entire Korean storyline. The entire first half of the season is a 8/10 and the final 2 episodes are a 3/10.
GTA 5 suffers from forcing you into public sessions where everyone’s using rocket vehicles. It really lacks an option to join sessions without rocket vehicles or Imani Tech cars or toggle them off. Something like GTA 4’s classic lobbies would’ve made a big difference. If people want to play in chaos they still have the option, but it’s a bummer your only other option is a private session by yourself. Especially with the new GTA coming up, Rockstar has nothing to lose by implementing the option.
Sure, bolting from the warehouse where they were hiding the crew was a massive risk. But was he ever truly likely to go home, tell his wife details, or expose everything? Especially with someone as powerful as Gus hanging over him?
This was one of the rare moments where Mike strongly implied Gus should just look the other way. He almost never asked for anything, and as Gus’s right-hand man, you’d think he’d grant him this one exception. The man wanted to see his wife and the construction project was far beyond past the original finish date.
