When griefers aren’t bombarding players’ experience in the game, some moments present themselves as the perfect picture of Rockstar Games’ open-world design.

The video shows NPCs in front of a building where there has been a fire-related incident. Whether it’s arson or coincidental, authorities seem to have shown up. Firefighters are taking a report, and the player moves around carefully taking in this unexpected event.

This is odd to see. In all these years, you might think that players might have memorized each and every“random“event that takes place in this virtual city. But this Reddit post is proof that the reality is quite different.
