Since GTA video games give the gamers some sort of freedome, and large and open maps, It is obvious to see gamers involved with different personalities, behaviors and backgrounds and that is what make the GTA community so special. In this article, let’s see some types of gamers and how they play.

1. The good man

”From now on, I will obey all GTA rules”: This is what these types of gamers say the first time they start playing. The first rule they try to respect is the traffic lights: driving on the right side of the road, stopping when the red lights flash, stopping at stop signs, and respecting pedestrians. They also try not to kill anyone or cause any problems, and they do their best to be good citizens.

But wait, do you think this behavior lasts for a long time? NO. This type of play makes these gamers feel bored, and they go back to their old habits of killing people, stealing cars, and destroying everything they encounter 😂..lol.

By the way, this type of play crosses almost every gamer’s mind, not only within GTA but in every game that offers an open world. It’s normal to try it for some time and then revert to your true self: destroying and causing problems 😂.

2. The destroyer

This type of gamer likes to destroy anything they encounter, whether it’s a car, a truck, or even a human being—anything goes. They’ll even shoot at solid objects in the game multiple times. They might use heavy weapons to kill a rabbit or a pig.

Sometimes, they destroy themselves by throwing a grenade or using a Rocket Launcher to kill themselves. Can you imagine!? As long as there’s noise and destruction, they enjoy it 😅.

3. Cheaters

When it comes to cheating gamers, they’re a breed apart. They search for cheat codes and hacks before even installing the game. They like to jot down cheat codes on paper and use them to try every possible action in the game. You can find these gamers in the online version of the game, where they engage in bizarre activities and lead very powerful lives. They’re either slim avatars or grotesquely obese characters.

These individuals often exhibit different actions and behaviors. They’re always trying to exploit loopholes, constantly seeking an advantage over others. They prefer and enjoy bending the rules of the game to suit their advantage, even if it means ruining the experience for others. These types of gamers usually prefer playing alone, as their behaviors often result in being shunned or banned by fair players.

4. The explorer

They always strive to take on challenges like finding all the collectibles, visiting hidden or forbidden locations, and completing every side mission.

These gamers are more concerned with exploring locations, hidden places, and actions than with the story of the game itself.

They often make custom changes to their cars, fine-tuning every piece to match their personal taste. If you ask them, they would say that GTA is less about chaos and more about the relaxed ride.
