GTA IV is a darker game, much closer to RDR2 than to other GTA titles. But it's clear that the team behind it, the engine and tools — both still needed to grow. In many aspects it plays like a PS2 era game, and it can get goofy because cutscenes are not as well integrated or directed as in later titles.
I'd love to see a remaster of this game where nothing really changes about the gameplay, but the cutscenes are recut with the same talent and experience as they are done in later Rockstar games.
