Despite being the 14th title in the Grand Theft Auto series, a simple perspective change completely alters the way the player approaches and perceives the long-running franchise. With the inclusion of the first-person perspective, the world of GTA suddenly feels more personal and tangible. No longer is the player able to feel a disconnect between themselves and the often immoral actions that they are required to do. No longer is the player able to soften their guilt by putting the blame on the ever-present on-screen character. For the first time in the life of a GTA player, he or she truly feels sorry for their actions.
