What are games that makes you start from the bottom and make you become richer and richer as the story progresses? I love the feeling of starting a game feeling like a hobo, and becoming a multimillionaire at the end of the story.
San andreas and saints row 2 are two games that do this, do you guys have more?

Saint's Row 2.
Of course, you very quickly reach a point where you can the best stuff for your homes and cars, but you do start with very little.

Saints Row IV.
You start from the bottom (as the president of the USA) and make your character become richer and richer, at the point you're the emperor of the most powerful empire of the universe.

Mount&Blade: Warband has you start out as a broke nigga and your aim is ruling the whole world. You can rake in mad dosh from businness enterprises and/or raiding.

The Guild2: has you start out with just a hut and 10000 cash which is not much, and you have to build a dinasty over the years. Game also lets you splurge on fancy clothes, jewelery, and expensive food/drink which makes your inner jew smile.

Even though the game has no currency, UnReal World makes you feel like a millionaire when you survive long enough

The Godfather games, though shitty, have this feature.

Take your own advice because that doesnt happen.

There's a small semblance of it happening with franklin moving from his aunts to that big house but that is it. He doesnt do anything with the house he sits in it all alone every day. Anyone who has played and switched to him can see this.

For a game about stealing and getting rich it really doesn't convey or feel any different even if you become a billionaire, which you can do through stocks.

>niko constantly complaining about being in shit and roman spending all his money even when you walk around with hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Niko is practically whining the entire game about being poor regardless of how much money you have or make and besides the games mostly about his revenge anyway

I mean, other the fact you went from stealing cars in the ghetto with 25$ at max in your pockets and nigga clothes,
to owning fucking golf clubs, planes and helicopters, restaurants, strip clubs and giant houses in fucking expansive suits, it really doesn't feel any different

>that doesnt happen

You don't even have to get past 40% of the story to see that.

I suggest to actually try the game, or watch some videos on youtube.

mafia 2 is racist and has no black people in the mafia, no wonder it failed and everyone hated the mafia series. Finally were getting a mafia game with real diversity that isnt racist.

new mafia has diversity and the main character has a richer backstory that he was raised in a foster home which makes the new mafia game better than almost every game out there right now that has no stories of socio economic empowerment for minorities.

The life may have been a simple one in the ghetto, but alas, I was happier trapped in the ghetto with friends to get me through. Now that I'm a big timer, I have escaped the ghetto, but my friends remain, and I am alone...

the amount of money the player has does not correlate with the amount of money Niko has in the story. money is basically an in-game reward for doing shit. canonically Roman is wasting all their money gambling online, and Niko is practically never paid half the time, or paid shit.

for fucks sakes, if you pick the "Revenge" ending (non canon by the way) you still get the $250,000 as if you picked the deal. there's no reason you should receive any money though. GTA V fixed this by only paying you for literally like two missions, not including the heists. but this probably won't happen again because normies cried that they weren't getting paid for missions, in missions where the protagonists wasn't even doing a job for someone, or the asshole that gave them a job fucked them over and refused to pay them.

>people would rather prefer Michael getting $10,000 for going on a bike trip with Jimmy and then taking his daughter off a yacht
>even though it makes no fucking sense for him to get paid for this
>these are the people that Rockstar listen to

A lot of games do it, but none of them do it right. You'd think GTA stories would work, but no, you build up way too fast. Also the story in SA is stupid, CJ literally has no problem killing a hundred other cops even before Tenpenny can lord Sweet over his head

III, VC, SA, LCS, and VCS are all fine to play now, but don't be surprised if you find it mildly disappointing due to the outdated gameplay mechanics. Even then, I wasn't really disappointed when replaying the original trilogy last winter. I suppose the nostalgia may have helped, but I had a good time.
