With the new, enhanced version of Grand Theft Auto V, the fictional city of Los Santos has never felt more real — and that’s especially true at night. But it’s easy to get caught up in all of the exciting mayhem and forget to stop and enjoy the smaller details. This video finds all of those tiny moments, from people hanging out outside of a club to gentle raindrops on the Vinewood sign, and cuts them together in a way that makes the new GTA seem even more impressive. When you take out all of the murder and car crashes, Los Santos is a pretty chill place.
