They were the best open world in the market at the time...
Don't be too critical, since nowdays, most mainstream games are open world, so that part is no longer a selling point.

I am not either... In my opinion, the GTA games have a SEVERE lack of open-ended content. That is why out of all GTA games, the only one I truly enjoyed was GTA online solo server.
Because in GTA online, I could grind to earn and build something... But GTA games are story mission focused, and that gets boring REALY fast to me.
