One answer may have to do with the area in which Franklin spends a lot of his time: South Los Santos, the game's version of L.A.'s historically crime-plagued South Side. But are these people simply extra-sensitive to the way the game treats Franklin, or are they noticing something real? 'This is absolutely false, the in-game police don't treat one lead character any differently from the others,' Rockstar said in a statement.

I've played more than 40 hours of GTA V, and I've experienced this kind of aggressive police behavior and emergent violence while playing as all three characters. execution-style as I have my back to them. 'Is it because I am black? Is this what happens? They think I am immediately guilty? I am armed? I am a huge threat? I've done something?' I see an escape, a rooftop with a ladder up it, and I begin climbing, but the police murder me - shooting me in the back multiple times as an 'armed suspect'. As I'm innocent, I raise my hands, knowing they'll understand, but they abruptly say 'HE HAS A WEAPON' whilst I'm unarmed, opening fire.Дў minutes later, I'm running down an alley as eight LAPD cops are behind me, GUNS DRAWN, and I still have absolutely no clue as to why. Abruptly, I have 1 star - absolutely no reason besides the fact a citizen reported the situation and I was presumed the culprit.

So, I was strolling down a boulevard, innocuous as any upstanding citizen, and suddenly, a white man begins assaulting me, making me flee as he pursued me with his frantic violence. 'Cops are racist towards the black character, Franklin.'
