    No, not really. I only kill civilians when I need money or when they attack me 1st. I hate alerting the cops, so I'm usually a law-abiding citizen.

    I feel like I release my stress by killing people in game. I feel like it is more fun doing that than just yelling at someone.

    I'm a little sad to say yes. I mean, this is kind of what the media looks at when they complain about violent video games, isn't it? But I do enjoy it, even in other games. I was playing Skyrim earlier and I got bored and just started hacking at guards for no reason. In GTA I do the same thing sometimes...just run around causing mayhem and chaos and see how far I can take it. I usually only do this for a few minutes until the angry energy wears off and I go back to regular jobs :)

    I've done that in two oldest GTA's. When they moved the view to TPP and especially when they made AI a little smarter it became a little disturbing to say at least. I mean it still happens and I don't have any problems with it, but I like to play with a little dose of realism to my actions. But maybe I need to try doing that when I'm pissed? I'll try it out as as stress relief and let you guys know :D

    Nothing feels better than going out on a spree and killing strippers left and right till you are pounded by the police :D

    Only for the money. and even then it's hardly worth it. When I play GTA I tend to take it a bit too serious, especially when I'm playing online, and try to stick within the rules as much as possible. Going on a murder spree isn't against the rules of course, but it can draw unwanted attention.

    Probably to relax I like robbing the stores, one it brings in some decent cash and two I like the challenge of seeing how many I can do before I get caught.

    I've done it before, but it doesn't make me feel relaxed. It's kind of funny to go on a massacre, but I'd never do it in reality! But on GTA it just looks pretty funny.

    Aha, that's not a bad idea. But in all honestly I don't even bother with civillians anymore. I prefer other players, they are much more of a challenge. Hunting someone down with and sticky bombing their car and watching it blow up from afar is the best feeling ever

    I usually kill people in the street while playing GTA, but not really doing it for amusement. I'm doing it either when I'm heading for a quest, or when I'm simply hanging around the city, haha. :)

    Do you mean online on GTA V? That's a pretty fun thing to do too. Having a challenge is much better than shooting random AI.

    I don't like shooting at random people without reason, but I do enjoy stalking them and causing them to kill themselves. I had a funny case last night when I stalked and harassed a woman to the point of her running in front of a truck.

    Er no, I've started fights with civilians but don't like wasting my bullets or getting the police on my back so I usually just leave them too it whilst I explore the huge open world :)

    I think that's one of the main advantages of GTA and it's open world, you really can do anything you want to do. Play the game as its supposed to be played, go on mad killing sprees, the choice really is yours to do as you want.

    But do you do it anyways? I agree with what you say, but it's pretty fun to go around and shoot people on GTA!

    If shooting people on GTA wasn't fun we wouldn't play it! One thing I do, that passes a bit of time is try and get my headshots count up using the sniper rifle.

    Just to make me feel better I don't just shoot regular civilians though, usually police and military so that's all right!

    I kill them just for the funsies, and also to try out my new weapons!
    I don't do it to feel relaxed really, it's something that I do regularly on every GTA game.

    Haahahah! I sometimes do this aswell! I hope there's a mod or something that will make cops NEVER chase you. It's so good to just go down on some citizens :mad:

    Hahaha! I always want to shoot random civilians just for fun but not to feel relaxed. Sometimes you do something that you can't really do in real life.

    I have done this in the past but I now get a more relaxed feeling from doing stealth attacks on random people, robbing a shop or something that grants a wanted level and then simply hiding from the cops just by staying out of sight. It's hard to explain but it's a really relaxing feeling. It almost feels like I'm invincible and invisible.

    hahaha about 10 years ago when I was 15, when my parents used to piss me off I would switch on GTA at high volume and go on insane killing sprees of civilians, I bet my parents thought i was well freaky back then lmao!
