Story bored me to tears, though I thought Liberty City felt much more "alive" than Los Santos in GTA 5. The pedestrians seemed less robotic and the melee & shooting were superior. Niko was a much stronger protagonist than the crew in GTAV, also. Still, while GTA has always had repetitive missions, other GTA titles did a much better job at mixing it up and injecting humor to keep the player somewhat engaged (San Andreas, GTA V in particular.) On the flip side, GTA IV takes itself too seriously and the missions themselves are 90% of the time scripted chase and/or tailing sequences, followed by a shootout. There's not much variety to speak of and personally, it wasn't an enjoyable game to me in comparison to the other major entries in the series.
