Seriously though, I thought GTA's tone was feeling a decade out of date even in 2013. It just stinks of the late 90s and early 2000s, specifically of early South Park

Play Red Dead Redemption 2. It abandons the edgy satire and what Grimbeard would call "smelly boy humour" that Rockstar made their calling card previously
Even Red Dead Redemption 1 still leans into that GTA tone
My wife likes the series, so that's probably a good sign.
A grim setting can be cool and good, especially if it feels like it's going somewhere (even if that somewhere is a fated shootout) with some narrative satisfaction.
