Does making a new GTA character delete your old one?

No, making a second character in GTA Online does not delete your first one; they exist as separate profiles that share your bank account but keep separate properties, vehicles, and businesses, though recent next-gen GTA V upgrades changed character migration, making it possible to keep both old and new gen progress if done carefully.

You can start a new GTA 5 story without deleting your old game by using separate save slots: first, ensure your current game is saved (and turn autosave off temporarily if needed), then go to the Pause Menu > Game > New Game, which creates a new save file, keeping your original progress intact in its own slot.

Why does my GTA character look so old?

Your GTA Online character looks old because of the "Parent Inheritance" system, where choosing rugged or older-looking parents (like Niko Bellic or rougher types) and selecting their features can result in wrinkles, blemishes, and a worn-out appearance, plus potential glitches or updates from Rockstar can subtly age faces over time, with some players finding their characters look grittier or older, especially after transfers or updates.
