With 3, I felt like my time was being wasted every time I played. The dumb collectible things are spread just far enough apart that it makes them a pain in the ass to collect them on foot, but not so far that a car is convenient (because the animation to get in and out of vehicles takes too damn long imo) either. The weird “lock picking” mini game where you just wait for the two bars to meet then press a button was stupid imo. I only ever got so far to do one of the ally’s side missions, and it was just “drive a boat all the way through the city and bayou to pick up some drugs or whatever, then drive the boat all the way back.”
