So far we've gotten: LA, New York, Miami, and kinda Las Vegas and San Francisco.

But I struggle to think of any others.

Chicago is a cool city, don't get me wrong, but aesthetically it's kinda boring for a video game setting. I think Boston is too old to set a game where driving in a major mechanic, who wants to drive through those streets? Not Bostonians based on the ones I've met. And DC, nah fuck that!

Only ones I could maybe think of are New Orleans and Philadelphia. Honestly GTA Pittsburgh would be a risky but potentially interesting choice.

Idk, anyone want to play GTA Cincinnati?

New Orleans gets my vote, they really haven't explored the south (outside of miami) in detail. All sorts of clowning you can do on confederate chuds.

Particularly old money confederate Chuds.

I dated a NOLA girl for a bit and introduced me to the Rex Ball, an event that happens right before Marty Gras. Let's just saw it's a big televised old southern money even with lots of young girls in frilly dresses dancing with older men. They literally have a King and Queen and the Queen is always like 16 and the King is pushing 50. It's like like a William Faulkner coded Epstein island.

the older krewes' balls are basically an extension of the debutante balls, with all the weird creepiness that implies, but not unique to New Orleans

Sounds like some Veiled Prophet shit

Sounds like some general Amerikkkan pedo shit

Mafia 3 was basically New Orleans. Weird game I actually enjoyed it a lot, but it was a real blip on the radar. Would have been dramatically improved with a Coop campaign given how under utilized it's really good cover/concealment and suppressing fire gameplay was.

Great soundtrack for running down klansmen and the Dixie Mafia too

I usually had my takedowns set to non lethal, but when the Klan came up I'd switch back to lethal.

I loved rocking a French 9mm pistol with 3 spare mags worth of ammo and the pistol grip pump action shotgun with 25 spare shells. Felt like a sincerely realistic and concealable amount of weapons/ammo for the first time in a game.

I played it like a GTA game, lol

Did you play that new one?

[-] XiaCobolt@hexbear.net 2 points 8 hours ago

I never got around to it, I've had a busy few years, is it good?

[-] uSSRI@hexbear.net 3 points 7 hours ago

No idea, also never got around to it. Maybe if it goes on super sale I'll try it some day.
