*The physics have been severely toned down since IV, which is annoying as fuck. The funnest thing to do in IV was either run people over or bail out of vehicles, both of which are no longer fun in V due to the physics being nerfed. Characters just have their ass dragged across the ground in a very unsatisfying and hideous fashion. I don't give a damn if this was to appease all those whiny individuals that complained about the physics being too overwhelming, it was realistic as fuck (in a good way).

*Related to above is my favorite pass-time of launching Niko out of the front windshield or out of a bike after driving into a wall at top speed, which is no longer fun in V. This also goes to NPCs, damn it's just no longer fun crashing into motorcyclists from behind. This also made vehicles less fun to crash, as V made impacts feel less fun and more crunchy (as in that crunch sound heard when colliding vehicles in V).

**Just [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9ELx0PnWZI look at this]. These are videos from real life. Does it look more like GTA 4 or GTA 5? Exactly, I thought GTA 4 had fuckin' amazing physics and that this was the start of something really revolutionary, I had the biggest expectations for GTA V... but... they were toned down? No!!! Are we trying to go backwards??? UGH.  
*The open world: Oh god.. fuck... Let's go at this one problem at a time.

**Let me start off with this copy-paste from GTA V's Wikipedia page: "They [the development team] wanted to a create a large world without open, empty spaces. The team focused on condensing the countryside of Southern California into a diverse and detailed playing space." While they had partially succeeded, I was beyond shocked to see the dozen mountains in the game to be completely devoid of anything save a shrub or two a couple hundred feet apart. Mt. Josiah and Mt. Chiliad in particular are completely devoid of anything interesting at all, not even interesting natural scenery which I would love. Ironically the canyon that is formed by these two shit piles is beyond beautiful, it almost makes it seem like a level in a linear video game and that the mountains are just low-resolution scenery that were never meant to be accessed by the player. Mt. Gordo and the rest of the eastern mountains, along with a few parts of the central mountains dividing the counties and the southern part of the Tongva Hills are also not innocent of this crime.
