The story aspect of "Gangstar Vegas" has received mixed reviews from players. Many appreciate the engaging storyline and character development, likening it to a mobile version of GTA with its action-packed missions and cinematic cutscenes. However, players express frustration over the brevity of the main story, with some completing it in just a few days, leading to a desire for more content and missions. Additionally, issues such as glitches during missions and the need for in-game purchases to progress have detracted from the overall experience for some users. Overall, while the story is praised for its excitement and creativity, there is a strong call for more depth and additional missions to enhance replayability.
“The game is really good, the story, graphics, and gameplay are all great.”
“This is the best Android platform game I have ever played. Excellent storyline, incredible fight scenes, so many things from weapons, cars, tanks, nice missions flowing and smooth gameplay.”
“The graphics are awesome, the story is also good. You will enjoy a lot going through the story. I swear to God this is the best open world game on mobile I've seen till now.”
“The story is very short, and after a few missions, it becomes pay-to-win. I finished the game in just three days, which makes it a very weak game. You guys need to add more missions because the game is useless now.”
“The storyline is lacking and the missions are simply ridiculous. There's no plot fixed and half of the missions are fictional, which isn't common in a GTA game.”
“I finished the main story in a few days, now there is nothing to do. The game is good, but it kicks me out every time when I start a mission.”

The graphics of "Gangstar Vegas" have received mixed reviews from players. Many praise the game's visuals, noting that they are impressive for a mobile title and often liken them to those of "GTA V." However, several users express disappointment with the graphics quality, citing issues such as low detail, lack of shadows, and pixelation, especially on lower-end devices. Additionally, players have requested improvements in character animations and environmental details to enhance realism. Overall, while the graphics are generally appreciated, there is a strong desire for further enhancements and optimizations.
“Big thanks to the developer who keeps this game alive with consistent updates. For me, the latest update was the best, graphics improvement, animation getting smoother, physics become more realistic.”
“The graphics are awesome, the story is also good. You will enjoy a lot going through the story. I swear to god this is the best open world game on mobile I've seen till now.”
“The graphics are incredible, and the storyline is really good.”
“After years went by since I last played, nothing changed. The design and concept of the game didn't change, you can't even climb or move because of small height distance. Vehicles get lost after entering a place, graphics didn't inch a change, nothing is new and the devs aren't doing anything about it. I now notice that ads are just running the place because even in-game they appear out of nowhere.”
“I played this game back 8 years ago when I newly bought a Samsung Note 4. This game had no ads and was way better to play open world like GTA. Now I reinstalled after 8 years on my S22 Ultra and this game is bananas, worst in graphics and mainly worst in ads when opening the map or checking mission HUD.”
“The graphics are not nice; the cars will be invisible and there are not too many cars or bikes. More should be added and fast-going vehicles must be included. When we crash the car or bike, nothing damages; we can see only life will go, so please fix the problem.”

“The game is cool, visually cool, and mechanically awful. Game mechanics in this game are so much worse compared to its older cousin, Gangster New Orleans. It's much smoother, way easier to play, good movements, etc. The game is also slow, I mean sluggish. Movements are painfully sluggish, and NPC drivers are bad drivers. You will usually bump into others in less than a minute. It's bad; I rate it poorly because of the mechanics. It has a lot of content, but I'm not going to play this game again.”
“The amount of ads that I get literally while the gameplay is ridiculous! It's full of bugs and the gameplay sucks. But lately, due to random ads, the gameplay has been worse than ever.”

“Actually, I need to give 5 stars, but I gave a rating of 4 stars because you removed the FM radio old songs in 'Dub Factory 92.2' and kept new songs which are not very attractive.”
“Please put the old radio music in Dub Factory, K Watt, The Knife, The Hood, and the classic vibes. I really miss the Skrillex: Bangarang and that's my favorite music in Gangstar Vegas.”
