In GTA Online, there are some encounters you wouldn’t always expect. MeinMMO author Eilyn Rapp also had an experience where she was suddenly kidnapped by a player for a date in Los Santos.
What happened? I had logged into GTA Online as usual to help out with a few heists. One of my favorite activities is to help beginners in the game. But when an invitation to a yacht from a player appeared, I spontaneously decided to follow it.
I didn’t know at the time that this would turn into a breathtaking “date.” But my curiosity to see a yacht took me there.
Yacht, boat, car, and jet – I had never seen Los Santos like this
This is how the “date” started: As I said, I followed the invitation of a player I didn’t know to his yacht. I had never seen one from the inside and was looking forward to it. Since there were more players hanging out on the yacht, I initially thought nothing of it.
After about 10 minutes of exploring the yacht, all the other players were thrown off the yacht. I was still standing there with the owner who had invited me. When he asked me if I was a woman and I confirmed it, he then messaged me in the game to just follow him.
Curiously, I followed him and saw that he had called a dinghy. We got in, and a joyride started that took us back to the mainland. We got out there, and a while passed until a cool car appeared.
Not for the first time did I wonder what this player was up to. But when I didn’t get into the car and he honked several times, I eventually got in. We don’t want to be rude!
After a refreshing drive, we arrived at his base. I should probably go inside, I thought. Once I got down there, I was almost breathless: he had so many vehicles, tanks, and helicopters. The whole base was filled with expensive things. He proudly showed me everything and gave me a tour.
After we had seen everything, the joyride continued with the car until we arrived at the Los Santos airport. There, I was told to wait outside the hangar. After a short time, he appeared with a huge jet.
This is how the joint outing ended: The grand finale of the “date” was the flight in the jet, flying into the sunset. I enjoyed the view so much that I even forgot to take a few screenshots.
After that, we flew back to his hangar (which, by the way, was also completely full) at the airport and got out of the jet. Then a message from him arrived: “That was really beautiful!” I agreed with him and thanked him for the outing; after all, I had never been shown around Los Santos so beautifully before.
My conclusion from this experience: In GTA Online, you often encounter the most annoying types of players the game has to offer. But after this experience, I realized that it doesn’t always have to be that way. It was a nice change to have a “date” instead of receiving messages telling me to “send nudes.” Even though this experience wasn’t associated with romantic feelings for me, I am thankful for it and will gladly remember it.
