It seems the playerbase of GTA: Online has turned into the 3 main characters.
The rich exploiters that have all the money and cars, and apartments in the game are Michael. They are rich, but now bored and miserable, there is nothing left for them to do in this town.
The people that refused to glitch the game for cash are Franklin, trying to make it big, legitimately, doing odd jobs here and there for some paper.
The griefers that go around and kill people over and over for no reason other than the lulz, are Trev, because...thats what Trevor would do for fun.
