Side missions were an absolute MUST in SoC. There was variety... some you might not want to take..

But in LA, right from the beginning, they were a big fat nothingburger.

The responsibility for this huge game defect (not drawing the player in) resides with the principal developer.

If the responsibility DID NOT reside there, then the creation of twice as many nonsensical sidies between v1.3003 and v1.4005, often with poorer "rewards" would not be the disaster that it is.

Criticism to Dezodor at your leisure. Good luck getting a reply, or even a joined-up answer.
