The launch of the Definitive Edition GTA Trilogy was possibly the most disastrous in Rockstar’s history. The games were discovered to be riddled with bugs and broken mechanics, as well as having some odd-looking character models and being unfinished in general. Furthermore, PC players were unable to access the games for more than 30 hours.

Fans have been waiting for Rockstar to speak out about the situation, with many requesting refunds. These disgruntled fans bombarded the GTA Trilogy with negative reviews after receiving far less than they expected. They felt that Rockstar did not honor the 3D Universe’s legacy.
