This is not really about the game, the game is fine. It's more about Rockstar being a terrible company. First of all you need to make a stupid account to freaking play offline (I shouldn't even need one for online, but it'd at least be slightly tolerable), I want people to die just for doing that. It's so ridiculous it shouldn't even be legal. Imagine needing an account for every single game you own (for me that would be over 500).

Second of all Rockstar's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ Launcher is too stupid to even understand how to connect to the internet. It took me like 2 hours after making an account to actually be able to start the game. Because the dumb thing just kept giving errors and only going into offline mode. I was so close to refunding the game and just torrenting it. But I eventually got it to work by turning on my VPN and setting it to a US IP. I don't know why that worked or why I even needed to do that. Maybe Rockstar should fix their stupid Launcher.
After doing that once I can at least play it offline normally now, but I still need to do this if I wanna play online.
