As someone who has been robbed countless times in a short amount of time, I do agree that it is quite exhausting having to deal with this, especially when it disrupts otherwise meaningful RP. In my opinion, every robbery that I've experienced on my own character has been pointless. I'm not even gonna sugar-coat it. They interrupt you, put a gun to your head, and force you to run your pockets. And if you're out-numbered or don't have a weapon, how are you supposed to fight back? You can't. You're basically forced to give them whatever they want, whenever they want. Even if you do have a weapon? You can be out-numbered. You have no choice to RP yourself out of it, and they're holding you in a fuckin' chokehold. How do these robberies even influence positive character development for the criminal? Is it, to these players, just a looter-shooter? What's the point? Now, I'm not saying that robbers shouldn't exist, and robberies shouldn't occur. But I do agree with PoisonedPaint that there seriously needs to be some kind of way to limit the amount of robberies that occur. I have a shop up in Morningwood. And I specifically chose that location because I knew that it was considered a decent area. But, it's not? Because I've gotten robbed in my own store during opening hours multiple times. And not only does it disrupt the RP of my clients, employees, and myself, but it makes it near impossible for me to even do openings because I legit worry about some sixteen year old coming into my shop and threatening me with a gun and forcing me to give him my cigarettes. It's legit happened. Cigarettes. Like, come on? And Paint made a good point about the fear RP thing too. It's basically impossible to RP fear at this point with the number of times I've been robbed. I just get pissed. And I RP my character getting annoyed, not scared. All in all, I really do think that robbery RP/robbers in general need to be managed. I'm fine with the occasional robbery, because that is realistic. But when you're robbed every other day and it interferes with RP you're trying to enjoy with your friends or otherwise? It becomes tiring and unfair. It becomes extremely exhausting, not to mention breaks the immersion and realism for me. Like, I don't care about loosing things on my character. It's just the fact that this shit is so rampant it's pushing me away from GTAW and the community as a whole. It literally makes me want to play less and less. There really needs to be some sort of solution to this. I know illegal RP is popular on GTAW and all of that, but. There really has to be a limit. And I will forever stand by this opinion. Thank you, Paint, for bringing this up.

Yeah, this is something that's bothered me as well. Like, I know it gets super cold at night in the desert usually, so that part kinda makes sense, but those big rain storms that we have, the ones with the thunder and lighting... that seems a little bit too extreme for such an environment the game is trying to display... but now that I think about, L.S. is an island. Geographically speaking, you'd never find a straight up desert on an island, so I guess... GTA V just doesn't make sense. xD

Was watching videos on YouTube and a video of a YouTuber playing GTAW was in my recommended so, I decided to check it out. Rest is history. B)
