The singleplayer portion of the game is great, I definitely recommend it.
Online? Unless you have multiple friends to play online with, I wouldn't bother since all you get 8 or 9 times out of 10 are modders who enjoy spawning a cage over your head and cloning you (Which I have to admit I did find funny, but it can be really annoying when you're trying to do something.) or griefers/tryhards who will ruin your gun running for no reason. On that note, the rewards for interfering with other player's business runs are a complete waste of time. If they try and sell, say, $1,000,000 of product and you destroy the shipment you get about $1000 and that's not even enough for a pair of shoes, for crying out loud.

I would have enjoyed playing the casino update, but I can't actually access GTA V at all because rockstar's new launcher never installs properly no matter what I do.

Reinstalled the game and deleted all rockstar related files manually? Error code 1014.
Manually downloaded and installed the launcher from the website? Error code 1014.
Sacrificed a goat as an offering to R* in the hopes that you can play GTA V today?
Guess what, error code 1014.

So yeah, if the launcher wasn't mandatory and I could play and run GTA V without it, I'd still be playing it
but since I can't, and I assume others will run into this issue, you're better off buying GTA V for the PS4/Xbox because you sure as F* aren't going to be able to play it on the PC now.
243.g hours, 83.5GB, all wasted because I now have to install something that never works.
Thanks, Rockstar, it was fun while it lasted.

Edit: Okay so
I fixed the problem with the launcher and now it runs fine.
That's no longer an issue
But I will still leave this review as negative for 2 reasons:

1. It took me about 2 days of slamming my head into a wall to find the solution and that's not okay.

2. This wouldn't have happened if they didn't shoehorn the launcher into the game in the first place.

I will state that I do still recommend this game as the singleplayer element is chaotic debauchery that brought me endless joy. But I don't recommend online as much since there's no real way to gain large amounts of money without spending ridiculous sums of money, or having multiple friends who cheat. Y'know, in private sessions (Don't cheat or use mods online for PvP, that's just stupid).
