Hey jester here's how my world works:

In my idea, the world isn't crapsack, but some areas are, my idea is more like the real world, so the way our world is shaped is exactly the same, Michael travels a lot in the series, but somehow he always manages to find trouble, however that's only his experience, the world itself doesnt constantly suck, there are some slice of life episodes where nothing bad happens, they just involve Michael talking about how things are where he lives and it's very peaceful. Even with Roger in control of the city, you don't see him constantly sending out serial killers every day, in fact he only does it every once in a while in order to keep a low profile, heck even he just goes out shopping every once in a while, just enjoying the city. Micheal is constantly going through crap, but the world itself isn't. And while there are corrupt cops all over the place, even they have their own set of standards and they help out when things get bad, things such as robbery, assualt, and loitering are treated very small, however if you kill or rape someone they will arrest you immediatley, in a similar style to gta 5 the characters may all be jackasses, but the setting itself is relatively nice to live in, as long as you don't get their attention.

Most villains in the series are on & off and have a set of standards that they refuse to cross no matter what. even the ones that don't aren't that vile, you already know which ones are.
