First, what is the game on top? Second, the best aspect of gta was the story. Multiplayer was neat to screw around in that's it. Third, for having the whole story scrapped and some guy having to hack something together in a year i d say he did a decent hack job
The game on the top is Witcher 3 which has a crapload of cutscenes, interactive storyline and a very lengthy and fun storyline.
I'm not saying GTA5 is bad, not at all, it's just that I personally think the storyline of the Witcher is very rich in comparison and is interactive while GTA also has a great storyline, but not interactive.
The story of Destiny is just bad and even though someone had to scrap it all together, it's still very bad for a half a billion dollar game to have scrapped the whole rich storyline and rush the new one.
