Ah, that explains things. If you haven't played GTA yourself you are unaware how misleading and incisive your description of it was.
Please consider actually getting a first hand impression of things before you regurgitate some propaganda.
I wanted to point out that the things you mentioned are not what the game is about. The suggestion for psychological (not psychiatric) help arose from the fact that you sounded overly distraught from playing a game in your own way.
I don't know, while not immediately familiar with the game, I've read reviews, seen videos of people playing etc. Is this from Wikipedia not accurate, for example:
"The mission "By the Book" features graphic depictions of kneecapping, electrocution, dental extraction and waterboarding, and the player is required to perform the acts in order to progress in the game."
Do people really think it's tactful and/or polite to suggest psychiatic treatment to others in a discussion?
Especially after mis-reading their whole point?
I don't do anything in GTA, have never played the game.
The parent comment presented it as a something to be proud about as compared to being a parent/friend/etc.
I just wanted to point out it's not some great achievement humanity wise.
