I still can’t get hyped for GTA 6.
Same here.
I’ve enjoyed all games in the franchise before and if it had come out around 4-5 years ago I might’ve cared but now I’ll wait before it gets ported to PC and then I have to upgrade my HDD space to SSD’s because fuck me I guess
Wait, you aren’t on SSDs yet? Damn, Windows was unbearable on an HDD even a decade ago.
Windows runs off a 500gb SSD but all my extra drives are HDDs and I can’t afford to upgrade :(
Ahhh fair. So you’re not completely miserable. Fair tho
Even if you ignore everything else, it’s still the most ambitious and massive piece of interactive media produced by humanity so far.
Besides, every single player GTA and RDR game has at the very least been good.
I’ve played the shit out of GTA 5 and good amount of RDR2, yet I can’t get excited for 6 either. Part of it is no PC version and no hope of online mode even being an option on Linux, but I also think that their game design is outdated and late for this era in a number of ways.
Our current politics are less conducive to GTA’s simultaneous promotion of capitalism and cultural satire of America. We’re in an unacknowledged depression that is rapidly taking away the accessibility of gaming. A lot of the coolest tech that Rockstar has is locked away under patents, making most of its advancements meaningless to the rest of the industry. I just don’t feel attached to the setting and it’s coming out at a time in my life where I’m less interested in playing that sort of game. I played GTA 5 on launch and was absolutely blown away by it, but that won’t happen this time around. I might play it in half a decade when it’s been long ported to PC, but like RDR2, I’ll only appreciate its merits and not its hype.
You state that as if it’s a fact. It’s just your opinion.
If you mean the rating of Rockstar games, it’s as close to a fact as it can get. Ratings for every GTA since 3 up to RDR2 has been, on average 90+/100. Each game is considered a cult classic. It’s the consensus.
What else needs to happen for a piece of media to be considered “good”?
Sure but that’s not measuring ambition or impact, just what individual players/cricits thought of the game. That has nothing to do with what you said.
Also, forgot about this when typing the initial reply, but your claim was not that the game was “good”, it was that it was “it’s still the most ambitious and massive piece of interactive media produced by humanity so far.” (literally copied from your comment).
How is that claim not a fact? Do you know of anything more ambitious or expansive?
Whichever metric you choose, resources invested, size and detail of the world, size of the script, there’s nothing that compares.How is that claim not a fact? Do you know of anything more ambitious or expansive? Define ambitious and expansive. If by expansive you just mean big world, that’s not saying much. And by that definition there are even more expansive games, ones that are procedurally generated for example. And the term ambitious is even more ambiguous.
resources invested Sure, but that doesn’t say anything about the quality of the game or your claims of “most ambitious and massive”.
size and detail of the world We don’t know anything about this besides marketing.
size of the script We also don’t know this.
there’s nothing that compares. You’re right, because there’s nothing to compare. The game hasn’t released yet.
Historically, Rockstar hasn’t lied about their claims. This isn’t about ads or hype it’s just extrapolating. Every entry has always been the most ambitious and their claims held up. Until they lie, one can safely assume the next one will be as well.
Not to mention there’s plenty of official and leaked gameplay footage.
Also, I never said that just dumping resources into something makes it good, but it certainly does make it ambitious.
Never slop
How you id as slop?
The bottom left image looks cartoonish, closer to digital art than a picture, also, the person looks younger than in real life.
The style matches slop output.
Money targets - achieved
Family targets - achieved
Sexual adventure targets - achieved
Personal legacy targets - achieved
If I were him, I would peace out and play video games too. Gives time to do the repair work with your own family too.
repair work with your own family too.
Did he break off something with his family?
After how Rockstar treated GTAV online, worker issues, and their views on Linux I could not give less of a shit about GTAVI
Agree on all the others, but for GTA VI they’re actually launching without online, so that might be a positive even.
He couldn’t see another way out, so he asked China to get him a girlfriend, so that he could play GTA VI
I’m gonna try this with my job today.
