The 90s: The Bling Bling Era
The cars
The cars in GTA Online are very 90s. They have big rims, big spoilers, and lots of bling. A number of vehicles are also modded to look like they’re from the 90s. For example, the Mule is modded with hydraulics and a lift kit.
The clothing
The clothing in the game is also 90s. You can see people wearing big shoulder pads, bright colors, and lots of bling.
The music
The music in GTA Online is also very 90s. It’s very hip-hop and R&B; it’s not as pop as the 80s or the 00s, but it’s still very modern music. The game has songs from Jay Z, Tupac, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, and many other famous artists from the 90s.
The clothes of the NPCs
The clothes of NPCs are also 90s-ish: big shoulder pads and bright colors are the order of the day. However, there are some exceptions to that rule: for example, some gang members wear more modern clothes than others. In general though, even if you choose to play as a cop in GTA Online (as opposed to a criminal), you’ll be wearing 90s-ish clothes.
The weapons
The weapons in GTA Online are also very 90s. You’ll find many different types of weapons, but they are all very well-made and very powerful. There are some exceptions, though: for example, there aren’t any guns in the game that are from the 20th century (such as a Mauser or a Luger). The only exception is the AK-47; it can be found in a number of cars and on NPCs, so you can choose to use it if you want to feel even more 90s.
Wrapping Up
As you can see, it’s actually pretty easy to pinpoint when and where GTA Online takes place. All you have to do is look at the map of the game and see where each mission takes place. In general, most of Los Santos is present day, with a couple of areas being either the 80s or 90s. The desert, however, is a bit more mixed. In other words, the whole game takes place in the modern era. Now you know when and where GTA Online takes place, so go out and explore the city like never before. This is your chance to understand the world of Los Santos and GTA V even better.
