Rockstar Games recently surprised fans with the release of GTA 5 Enhanced on Steam, but the launch hasn’t gone as planned. Despite promising updated visuals and features, the game has been flooded with negative reviews due to migration issues, bugs, and missing features. Here’s why fans are calling it the “worst reviewed GTA on Steam.”
What Went Wrong with GTA 5 Enhanced?
GTA 5 Enhanced was meant to bring the PC version up to date with its console counterparts, offering improved visuals and performance. However, the launch was plagued with problems, including:
- Migration Issues: Many players couldn’t transfer their characters from the previous version.
- Bugs and Glitches: Players reported issues like broken 3D audio and missing features.
- Missing Chat Function: The removal of the Online chat box left PC players frustrated.
These issues have led to a wave of negative reviews on Steam, with many fans feeling let down by Rockstar’s handling of the release.
Fan Reactions: Frustration and Anger
Fans took to Reddit and Steam to express their frustrations. One Steam user wrote, “If you think I’m throwing away nearly 700 hours of gameplay on one character so that you can make a few more bucks off me, then you can lick my anal orifice clean.”
Others shared their own experiences. “I successfully migrated… Only to be told I’m eligible for a free car, which it then deducted the full price ($2m) of. That’s roughly $25 if you spend money on in-game currency,” commented one Redditor.
Why This Matters for Rockstar
The backlash against GTA 5 Enhanced is a rare misstep for Rockstar, a studio known for its polished releases. With GTA 6 on the horizon, fans are hoping the studio learns from this experience and avoids similar issues in the future.
As one fan put it, “There’s no excuse for this s**t. Rockstar needs to do better.”
