>>1188609 id assume rockstar would put some sort of one-time transfer of your money from 5O into 6O but that might be expecting too much of them i feel like 5O whales (or dedicated autistic grind addicts like theprofessional) will not want to move unless they do this

>>1189248 The only bait here is you

>>1188609 The only thing that could save it is co-op functionality for the main campaign... But, we all know Rocktard want to milk all multiplayer content via their online service, which means that it'll just be another boring, solo, mostly linear run through a barren city, like every other GTA .

>>1189359 It's going to suck because the competency crisis has struck Rockstar like all the other big studios. That's the actual meaning of them getting rid of the "toxic boy's club". The reason why they want to charge $100 is for the SAME reason why it took so long be released: incompetent developers failed to meet deadlines continually which resulted in the budget exploding out of control. Just in case you were confused but what's been happening in gaming. Talented developers do not work at game studios anymore. There is literally no chance GTA6 will be great, screencap this.

>>1189582 >GTA6 will succeed simply because it is GTA6. Not if it doesn't have anything that reflects the quality of prior games it won't. There has been a major shake up in staff as Rockstar since GTA V and even RDR2. Perhaps this is the one bait they'll secure the pre-order sales for if that's what you're really saying. But it will be the thing that ruins their reputation permanently most likely if it ends up being the case of that they actually bled all of their real talent out. I don't think there will be a recovery post Lazlow Jones's departure. This is the biggest gamble they've done with no talent to back it up.

>>1189248 If it keeps it's retarded mission structure where a drop of a hat can fail a mission and if it's woke it will suck. I have little doubt that the bugs are going to be kept to a minimum because rockstar is pretty well known for selling a stable product. If it focuses only on the online portions of the game (outside of bug fixing) that will also be a mark against the game for me

>>1189248 Rockstar is a shell of its former self, most of the remaining devs are zoomers/millennials and all the OGs who wrote the story and designed the older games are gone, that and this game is obviously getting rushed and has minimal fanfare, whilst GTA V had a super hyped announcement and development period filled with snippets and crazy fan theories. Current VI just feels insanely corporate and woke, like some people said it's basically not satire anymore.

>I'm not sure if people will even want to switch from GTA:O Poople are buying new dogshit microtransaction-riddled cawaduty and ea footy every year and even if that wouldn't work they're gonna make it f2p.

>>1189248 It is, but that's not what OP said.

>>1191120 First pic reminded me of this lol.

>>1188609 GTA VI's success is guaranteed It's too popular to fail It would have to cost 200 dollarinos or be known as utterly unplayable before the release RDR3/GTA VII on the other hand...

>>1190602 It's true but they are unproven yet and rockstar has yet to fail at creating a mainline title

>>1191772 GTA IV It's a limbless, castrated, and beheaded game, compared to GTA SA Also ran like shit at launch

>>1191120 I have a feeling that the gameplay is going to be good while the story is going to be trash.

>>1191814 Well I never played it at launch so I wouldn't know but yeah it was a very boring game although I would hardly call it a failure. It was an above average title but I think that the story and unlikable characters held it back a lot. It wasn't a good game but it certainly wasn't terrible

Are they going to have a proper fast travel system? There is 0 reason why you shouldn't be able to fast travel to anywhere you want in the map besides restricted areas. Also, are fast cars actually going to go fast and not go only slightly faster than average ones?

>>1192735 Saying this, I do not think you should be able to use the fast travel in combat/with cops on you or on a mission

>>1188609 >nigger simulator VI if you unironically enjoy playing that shit you must be deported to a 3rd world country where you rightfully belong

GTA VI will sell incredibly well, perhaps even surpassing V. Its quality is irrelevant. The issue is if GTA VI is going to cost $90 or whatever the "new normal" will be because other publishers will try and fail at pricing their games the same.

i am somewhat worried about GTA VI being woke as fuck, i hope that they wont be making any unnecessary changes to the hot bikini chicks. still one thing is sure that GTA VI will be the tipping point, it will either make or break the AAA industry. if it is a huge success then others will see what people truly want in gaming and we might witness a renaissance of game development, on the other hand if it is a total flop then people will lose their trust towards AAA games for good and indie development will begin to rise and take it's place.

Only reason it will be truly bad is if a recession happens and nobody wants to pay 100 dollars for GTA6 when GTA5 exists.

I don't think GTA 6 is going to flop, but I agree that AAA (more like AAAA) gaming is likely going to crash sometime after GTA 6.

>>1188609 My crackpot theory is that they delayed the game for PC launch. They are going to launch it on as many platforms as possible on launch day.

>>1193449 Ehh, they know there are people who will double dip on getting the PS5/Xbox version and then again on PC and potentially Switch 2 a year or so later.

>GTA 6 >Flopping kekaroo the absolute delusion

>>1188609 GTAVI won't fail, even if the game is dogshit and costs $120. Millions of casuals are still going to buy it day one because it's GTA, and then will spend hundreds, if not thousands, on shark cards.

>>1193815 >They're going woke Yes. >But will they go broke? No way in hell

>>1193815 Absolutely not. It’s like saying Madden or Pokémon won’t sell; the name alone will make sure that it sells big. It will be garbage, though. It’ll be woke, unambitious, buggy, disappointing trash.

>>1188609 >4cucks think GTA6 will flop Never post again

>>1192735 Saints Row 2 had a simple and rational system: Outside of missions you can call a taxi, pay some money, and be transported to a business or safehouse after a black screen and some time advancement. It had sensible limits that were implemented well (the taxi can only spawn on roads, all the points of interest were on the street, can't have a wanted level). I have no idea why more GTA likes (even the sequels) didn't do it. Might have been too hidden for casuals: You never get told this explicitly, but when you see the phone number for one of the three taxi companies on random traffic, you can call it on the in-game phone and it will be saved to your in-game address book

>>1193815 >They're going woke GTA IV, V and RDR 2 were already woke as fuck, the hell do you mean "going", retard?

>>1191120 What's wrong with the right picture? Looks like the US demographics to me.

>>1190120 >quality since when normalfags (the main demographic of rockstar games) care about quality? the GTA series is up there with call of duty that can sell because of its name alone. You're delusional if you think otherwise.

>>1195239 You clearly forgetting just how many AAA failures happend in the last 2 years. Normafags became much more conscious about buying shitty games.

>>1195379 GTA is too much of a juggernaut to fail

Gta 6 will probably cost 100$, will only release on current gen consoles and will be woke. Let's also not forget that the budget of a GTA game is so high, it's pretty much a failure if it doesn't become the highest selling game of all time. Of course it could still be a success just because it's GTA, but it's not guaranteed as a lot of people pretend

>>1188609 It's going to be $100, it's going to sell well, and it will give other studios the okay to also charge that much for standard games. I think GTA 6 will sell well, but I think the ensuing $100 games will cripple the industry from radically underselling projected sales. GTA can get away with it because it's GTA, but Rockstar's basically the only studio that can get away with this, imo. I do think we're heading for a soft crash, though. Especially if Nintendo never buckles on their prices and $80 games start becoming a standard. We've already seen the backlash over that price, from the nonstop negativity in their stream chats and tone of videos being made on the subject to this day. And anecdotally I know several guys who are dads, and instead of getting a Switch 2, they're buying their kids more games on the Switch 1, and using their gaming PC as another console for their kids. Some letting them in their office, some moving it to the living room and hooking up controllers for said kids, some thinking of outright building a potato masher to play lower spec indie games for their kids, etc. And with the way the economy is I think those dads reactions are gonna be pretty common among parents. I've heard arguments that the kids will just beg and scream until their parents cave, but at potentially $80 a pop, per game, for an already $500 console (given most will just get the MKW bundle), I think the Switch 2 will occupy somewhere between the existing cheaper "we have vidya at home" options (like the lowest spec Steam Deck, a Switch 1, any older console + the retro games, using your existing PC for indie games, etc), and the "are you out of your mind?" tier expensive options (Bigscreen VR, high end gaming PC built from scratch/prebuilt, even a Valve Index would be way too much at a grand for most parents). Where maybe if a kid is higher middle class, they can convince their parents to get it for them, but realistically they might even need to contribute to the price of it too with their own money. Or they have to straight up just live with not getting one. Idk, at my age I'm completely out of touch with what teenagers and children do with gaming. But I heard that PC gaming has been on the rise lately. I also remember information on video games being way harder to find, as a kid. Does anyone know how consumer savvy kids are now? I feel like it'd be a lot harder to pull the wool over their eyes, when anything they're posting on can already play a shit ton of good video games, even if it's low low spec (emulators, toaster friendly indie games, and I'm assuming decent mobile games exist) I ask because in particular, with the rise of F2P games, I feel like even younger, more susceptible to marketing, kids and teenagers are going to be more wary about spending $80 on a game, when they've spent literal years playing free ones every weekend with their friends

>>1193755 Definitely not. It's going to sell like hotcakes even if it's a steaming pile of cow shit lol

>>1189248 I don't think GTA6 will suck at all. I think it'll be expensive and that it won't really offer anything the prior GTAs don't already offer. The price point combined with the hardware it asks for, will probably leave people watching streams of the game before they try it out for themselves. See that the experience isn't actually that different. Then lots of people who might have normally been inclined to buy GTA6, will simply replay GTA5 or San Andreas or whatever and get their GTA-itch out of their systems. That of course is unless Rockstar does something drastic like shutting GTA:O down and forcing people to buy GTA6 for GTA:O 2.

>>1188609 > failure of GTA 6. There's only two ways I can see GTA6 failing First is they fuck it up so badly no one wants to touch it for some reason, it's not impossible but not probable, that thing could probably brick your console and still have people sucking its dick. Second is it "succeeds" but they dumped so much money making it and advertising it it's still a failure on paper. Gonna be funny seeing other AAA fail by trying to copy the elevated price tag though.

>>1189645 Rockstar has a pretty complicated engine design in GTA 4 and 5. It's basically a physics simulation software adapted to make a video game. I don't think DEI hires are going to make anything good with it.

>>1196129 >That of course is unless Rockstar does something drastic like shutting GTA:O down and forcing people to buy GTA6 for GTA:O 2. That will happen 100%. Maybe not in the first year but sooner than later. Warzone has shown that the benefits of closing your old service game outweight the backlash you get >>1196169 >Second is it "succeeds" but they dumped so much money making it and advertising it it's still a failure on paper. that's what I believe will happen. I'm sure that Rockstar knows they will lose money through game sales alone, but bet on Online 2 being a big hit. The thing is if it is just Online in a new city and better graphics that won't be enough.

>>1195379 Your mistake is trying to compare GTA to AAA titles like assassins creed etc. when in fact GTA is 1.AAAA Title 2.A household name like call of duty It is simply too big to fail.

>>1196824 <1.AAAA Title there is another

>>1196824 Nothings too big to fail right now. The entire industry is just waiting for the first truly big failure. >A household name like call of duty The budget of GTA 6 is at least 5 times that of a new CoD and CoD still needs skin sales to be profitable, even though it has high sales numbers

AAA in general is absolutely going to crash soon, probably not this year, but definitely this decade. GTA however will sell gangbusters and break records, even at $100+. Hell, they might get super ballsy and charge $120+ just because they can.

>>1191879 It's literally the best story they've done

>>1196824 >It is simply too big to fail Yeah, like Star Wa... No Disn... Nope I know THE MCU... Oh right, it's deader than an OD'd hooker.

>>1198253 <implying star wars 7 flopped >implying avengers endgame flopped cuckstar is still riding the fans' goodwill, despite the absolute fuck up that were the defective editions of 3d gtas

>>1198253 >like Star Wa... to be fair, the fall of Star Wars' didn't happen overnight, it took D*sney 10 years of consistent fuck ups and failures to bring the franchise to its current state, and frankly Star Wars was already in a somewhat less than perfect shape prior to its acquisition by the Mouse due to all the perturbations that were happening in LucasArts in the mid 00s and TOR's performance falling short of expectations

>>1189248 Contrarianism, only >>1191120 Niggers? In the criminal simulator game? No way

>>1198418 No one is implying 7 failed, but 8 and 9 definitely did. Disney planned two new trilogies after 7 which were quietly cancelled after 8. Same goes for MCU, nobody claims Endgame was a flop but that was 6 years ago. The fact that the first MCU movie that came to your mind was a 6 year old one should speak for the "success" of the newer movies

>>1198425 Sounds similar to the fuck ups Rockstar had with GTA over the last decade.

>>1198532 They've not really had fuckups though, arguably DE but that's a side project and I'm pretty sure it made it's money back and then some because retards gonna be retarded.

>>1198532 >Sounds similar Now this is pure delusion

>>1198498 rockstar right now is where star wars and mcu were at in 2015 and 2019, respectively at its peak (even though they haven't made anything close to gta sa since 2004 desu) gta 6 IS too big to fail, unless they heavily depend on gta 6 online microtransactions to turn a profit

>>1198619 oh yeah it defintely made it's money back, but it also damaged the gta brand, like every fuck up does. I would also say that the first real sign of GTA 6 was leaked footage was a major fuck up. And a lot of smaller ones that only matter to Online players.

>>1198418 The last Star Wars movie flopped so hard you probably don't even remember which one it was.

>>1198669 >gta 6 IS too big to fail, unless they heavily depend on gta 6 online microtransactions to turn a profit This And they learned with RDR2 Online failing that they can't do that shit

>>1198719 That's not a lot, you have to remember that the average person is not gonna care that deeply and it's who they depend on for their revenue, there are ways they can fuck it up royally sure but I don't think the failure point is here quite yet. >>1198747 >And they learned with RDR2 Online failing that they can't do that shit >they learned Bit presumptuous of you to think they they have

>>1198747 They have no real choice other than to rely on online microtransactions. AAA games are just too expensive to just make it's money from sales and a GTA is even more expensive because it has to have lots of licensed music

>>1198747 >And they learned Did they? Are you sure they didn't take the wrong lesson with this screw up and went "WE NEED MORE JEETS" instead?

>>1198801 >Bit presumptuous of you to think they they have They instantly started churning out ways to make GTA Online less grindy after RDO failed. There's a bunch of solo heists that makes you alot of money in a acceptable grind, unlike the dumb shit from the past

>>1198866 yet they still felt the need to constantly nerf every popular money making method.

>>1188609 >I predict a gaming crash will happen

>Failure Even if it sucks it's going to sell gangbusters, normalfags are retarded

>>1193815 The guy who said that has left Rockstar

>>1188609 GTA6 would have to fuck up really badly for it to not sell, so it's very unlikely. But then again, normally crashes happen due to events that no one expects, so who really knows...

If the 2 billion USD budget leak (apparently came from the same one that leaked prototype) is true and >we add the 60 million that money would have gotten from just being dumped into treasuries at 3% to the effective budget >they make another average 100 USD per copy in microtransactions (some estimates are that the industry wide total is 44% of all income come from them, which isn't counting expansion DLC) >we don't account for costs other than the 30% digital store take (it's going to be higher physical once the retailer cut, console cut, physical mastering and shipping costs etc. are accounted for) They will need 45 million to just start breaking even. GTAV's first year sales were 45 million and lifetime as of last year were 210 million. I don't think it will lose money, but the return on investment will be telling the whole industry trying that again on anything less is suicide.

shitters keep saying stupid shit like this and then the next day some indie game makes millions of sales in under a month like, pick a side retard, its not a crash

>>1201211 What do indies making good money have to do with an AAA crash?

>>1201225 no such thing as a specific only kind of publisher crash its all or nothing retard people are gleefully gonna spend for shit like the next soulslop or oblivion remake

>>1201211 >it's not a crash >ubisoft has to sell out to the chinese >microsoft thinks about pulling out of the console market >more than half of all AAA games in the last 2 years are complete failures >more layoffs than ever before >games will soon cost 80$ and it still won't be enough to pay for the inflated budgets >companies lacking so much talent they have to outsource remakes just so they have anything to release >but not a crash

>>1201343 >no such thing as a specific only kind of publisher crash its all or nothing retard That has literally never been the case. Even during the early 80s crash, that was only localized to America, and only in the console space. Home PCs at the time weren't experiencing any kind of crash just because Atari shit the bed.

>>1201343 >its all or nothing This is how I know your post is a fucking bait

I have not once played a GTA game for the plot. Literally the only reason I play the story part of any GTA game is to unlock the map. As long as I get to crash out in Florida and slaughter aspiring mumble rappers and streamers I shall be content. I am a simple man and I AM the target demographic.

>>1196169 >Second is it "succeeds" but they dumped so much money making it and advertising it it's still a failure on paper. Virtually impossible with MTX and children of parents that wouldn't notice if they dropped dead.

>>1196169 >advertising it People can't stop talking about GTA 6 despite the trailer being released like 2 years ago

>>1194089 There'd be nothing wrong with those character designs if the old crew were still the ones writing the script. But you already know they'll be soft on making fun of black people from Florida.

>>1196956 >>1198253 >>1198253 >Skull and bones The fact is your comparison is just absolute dogshit since you're comparing Rockstar to ubisoft. Have you seen ubisoft lately? and no, Skull and bones is not a household name. >The budget of GTA 6 is at least 5 times that of a new CoD and CoD still needs skin sales to be profitable, even though it has high sales numbers stop moving the goalpost. The fact of the matter is they still sell a shit ton of copies. No matter how bad their quality is. >Star wars >MCU How many videogames and movies have these franchises released in the past 10 years? Now compare that to Rockstar's number of releases. You'll see why people don't like franchises that are getting milked like a cow. Your comparison is DOGSHIT.

>>1199667 >normally crashes happen due to events that no one expects wrong. Each economic crises was predicted by a few very smart people. They just don't want to talk about it to make profit. See the big short.

>>1191120 >gta 6 is taking care not to punch down with jokes about marginalized groups So in other words the satire will be shit. We already know it's going to be bad from that statement alone. A lot of you who complained about GTA V's satire are going to be eating your words soon. You'll be wanting to go back to how that game was.

>>1196824 >>1197156 >>1198253 I think it's a lot simpler than any of this: niggers still accept GTA6 was "nigger core". If the game were to come across as "white", it would fail like what happened to Saint's Row. But because niggers still think this game has machismo, it will sell the same normalfag gangbusters.

>>1188609 I think american AAA will crash the same way it crashed in 1983: it's not actually going to be a market crash, the bottom's just going to fall out for some big-name companies because like Atari they're hyper-committed to a losing strategy and their future will be in cheaply-made shovelware/cheap nostalgia pandering, like Atari. hell, they're already practically all migrated to the shovelware model with the freemium crap (GTA Online, anyone?), phone games, and the sportsball gravy train EA's been riding since the fucking 2000s.

>>1205634 >american AAA will crash the same way it crashed in 1983 There was no AAA game dev in 1983. most games were literally made by 1 or 2 people. Even ET for the Atari 2600, credited as the straw that broke the camels back, was made by just one guy. Literally indie dev tier. Seriously, what game made in 1983 or prior would even be considered AAA?

>>1201211 It was being called a crash by AAA and journos. Remember their "we need to survive 2024(until gta6 comes out)" The "crash" only affects AAA. Everyone else is fine.

Test

>>1205535 Would playing as a woman affect this "machismo"?

>>1191814 gta4 is the best entry in the series

>>1207117 No cause she has a huge ass

>>1188609 >PC will save the industry consolefags? how are we gonna cope???

>>1194047 You can call a taxi to anywhere you can set a waypoint in GTA and press a button to skip the journey.

>>1205998 The game had shittons of marketing Like 1:100 it's development cost

>>1202787 >t. RIDF diversity hire

>>1189248 the story and humor are gonna be trash for sure

>>1188609 The outcome will be a harder pivot to live service games most likely, why waste all that money on a risky AAA project when Fortnite brings in more money than smaller countries

>>1202787 there is no goalpost moving. The discussion is about GTA 6 being a financial success or not, nothing about how much it sells or if it's a critical success. The fact is that 6's budget will most likely be so bloated that Rockstar will have to charge 100$ and still needs to make money with microtransactions to be a financial success for Rockstar.

More like >GTA6 costs $120 and everyone still buys it because it's fucking GTA <Maaaaybe it won't earn that much money relative to the cost because of the ridiculous budget it has <but they'll milk GTAO for another 20 years anyways so no problem >Other devs look at it and think "hmmmm maybe I can charge that much too!" >It's not GTA so it fails horribly

>>1207100 Yep. The industry's well-established enough where it will reshuffle more than anything else. With Indie titles randomly popping off on a regular basis, as well as advancements in AI making it more viable to develop as solo or in small teams, AAA/AAAA is the most vulnerable section of the industry. How GTA6 performs potentially has major implications for big-budget games, but relatively little else.

>>1216880 think what you want, but it's still a enormous risk and they would never do it if it isn't necessary. You clearly underestimate how much mindful normalfags have become on their gaming spending habits.

>>1217518 demoralizationfags like you were claiming for years that nothing will ever change, yet ignore everything that is happening with the industry since last year.

>>1217675 >Shadows was a success that's why Ubisoft is selling out to the chinese >industry is so fine mass layouts are happening, but that's just covid money drying up don't worry about it >see this one game that came out on PC recently, that was a success, just pretend all the failures don't exist

>>1188609 GTA 6 is 100% breaking records for the next 15 years, sadly. They bought out five m and have ROME in full development, if they utilize the freedom of five m but sprinkle in custom user content like the roblox shit its going to be absurd how much money they will make from GTAO 2. five M gave them so much insanely valuable data to work off of when it comes to ROME it's hilarious for how little they bought it out for compared to what they will gain once it drops.

>>1217853 >fivem kek https://www.gamesradar.com/games/grand-theft-auto/73-000-words-of-drama-about-gta-5-rp-mod-teams-acquisition-by-rockstar-appear-online-with-claims-that-no-original-devs-are-left-and-the-project-is-dying/

>>1190602 Only retards make this arguement. All of the original programmers, in-game artists etc still work at rockstar. The people who left rockstar were in charge of the story and guess what? everyone thinks the GTA V story was dogshit so if anything we might see a massive improvement with cuckslie and gay houser gone.

>>1217890 Yes that's my point, Rockstar bought it out, siphoned all the useful data they needed from it and clearly sabotaged it so they can 100% focus on ROME. use your brain lil bro

>>1217918 >selling out to the chinese means everything is fine because it was planned half a year ago

>>1217998 You're entire argument is basically "everything is fine don't worry"

>>1188609 Gay theft auto will be mid At launch It won't flop probably but people will return back to 5 In the long run will be a fucking failure

>frogposting Letting the cuckchanners in was a mistake

>>1218072 Even the old ass leak videos is proof it will not fail

>>1218126 frogposters were mostly gone on 4/v/

>>1218279 I don't know what hole you came crawling out, but 4/v/ was mostly frog free

>>1218279 He's right though, frogposters were unanimously ridiculed on 4/v/

>>1195885 I buy like 30 games a year but only 2-4 even remotely close to full price, and yet their still getting more expensive Who the hell is paying full price for all these shitty games? I'm a old fag who before the days of GamePass and even emulation you had to get value and replayability out of the games you buy, and young kids can skate by playing F2P shit and having all thyeir currency go to shit like Roblox, so again, who is buying all these games at full price to justify them raising their prices (i'm willing to bet they sell more when they reduce the price and make more that way)

>>1217998 >was a success and not a flop Ah yes because all massive successes use weasel words like "revenue" and "players" instead of "PROFIT" or "SALES" Right...

>>1188609 I think its coming. Just matter of when.

>>1217918 Triple-digit IQ on /v/? Fancy meeting you here. Yes, correct: Shadows was to determine the price of the IP sale — in case anyone was wondering why they pushing how amazing and record-breaking numbers were right after release. The decision to sell was made long ago.

>>1221913 he posted a frog, which automatically gives him room-temperature IQ

The game is going to be sold in bundles with every console that runs it and the bundles are going to get discounts immediately. Sales are not going to be a serious issue. "It's too expensive" and "nobody I know has a PS5" will evaporate within a few months of release. Analysts will probably whine that it's not as successful as GTAV for the first month and then shut up because nobody cares. Also, the game is an iterative upgrade to GTAV and PS4 was the lead platform for most of its development (the leaks include video of it running on PS4 devkits). Anyone who thinks it won't get a Switch 2 port, let alone can't, is really, really stupid.

If Rockstar had adopted their old business model they wouldn't be risking so much on one game franchise. But i suppose that's down to whether people want these massive games or more modestly cut down. But they'd still milk the online shit in the budget anyways.

>>1222727 >Anyone who thinks it won't get a Switch 2 port, let alone can't, is really, really stupid. Even if GTA6 runs on switch 2 hardware with no issues, I don't think Nintendo would want it on their platform because it doesn't fit their image. You might say they can't miss out on the money but they did for GTA5 and did fine. I don't see why they would view GTA6 differently.

>>1202456 Art is always the polar opposite of reality. As long as you know what black people from Florida are like (statistically they are the same as West Africans everywhere else on the planet) then that's the main thing.

>>1223210 >I don't think Nintendo would want it on their platform because it doesn't fit their image They just said this as a cope back in the day for Rockstar not wanting to port GTA games to the GameCube. If they actually cared (they don't, I don't know how you possibly still think this) they wouldn't allow other violent Rockstar games like Manhunt 2 and Red Dead Redemption on their consoles, blatant GTA clones like True Crime and Saints Row, or the fucking GBA and DS GTA games, or the fucking Switch ports of the awful 3-SA remasters. Nintendo does not have an image issue in the slightest with violent adult games on their console, they only get cranky at what they perceive to be actual jerk-off material. GTAV did not have a Wii U port because it was a failure (Reggie said outright he wanted Rockstar's games on Wii U) and does not have a Switch port because of GTAO's large and frequent update bloat and Rockstar's desire to include GTAO with all copies of GTAV. They will probably open up to Nintendo ports of GTAV without GTAO once 6's multiplayer is revealed, or if not then, then in a few years when they make public plans to shutter GTAO.

>>1222823 >t. tranny

>>1198253 All the things you've listed their failure was gradual and they made a shit ton of money in the process anyways. So yeah GTA 6 might be the beginning of the end for Rockstar but as it stands now it's 100% going to break sale records.

>>1222727 >The game is going to be sold in bundles with every console that runs it and the bundles are going to get discounts immediately. Sales are not going to be a serious issue. The question isn't "will it sell?", the question is "Can it possibly sell remotely well enough to justify spending 2 billion to make and market it?" If they got $70 off each copy (100 USD minus 30% store cut) and got double the first year sales of GTA5, they'd still be in a hole before microtransactions. Rockstar's earnings report this year says that GTA5, from launch to present, counting all income forms, brought in "only" 8.5 Billion over 12 years. If GTA6 just equaled that income over time, magically not incurring further costs while doing so (pretend expansion/GTAO2 development/etc. are accounted for in that 2 million), they'd have spent a quarter century to get that money. GTA6 has to exceed GTA5 for that budget to be justified.

>>1225193 A big chunk of their earnings also comes from collecting players data and information and 'sharing' it with their affiliates and partners. I don't know if the profits from these partnerships are included in the sales figures for individual games or just the companies overalls.

>>1218072 what a retarded post

>>1188609 you are delusional

>>1198418 Anon, Endgame was like 7 years ago

>>1225193 >$2 billion budget Any official source on this chief? Or you also pulled this out of your ass just like all the rest of untrustworthy speculators.

Everyone on earth with a platform to run it, and many who buy a platform just for this will buy it whether it's good or not. I haven't bought a game over $10 in ten years and I think rockstar is a shell of it's former self but I'll still buy it

>>1230729 He's wrong. The $2 billion thing is a lifetime budget estimative, not that it cost 2billion to make the game

My 21 year old female cousin is buying a ps5 just to play this. She only plays GTA. The industry is too big to fail

>>1236687 how our her booba

it doesn't really matter because with GTA and RDR2 online, the only people that made more money than them is Steam. unforuntately fucking retarded zoommers and even more retarded millenials who should know better, gave rockstar a fuck ton of mooney for online for shit ass RP and other such bullshit. buncha fucking losers. anyway, if you spent money on sharkbucks, and chances are half this thread did, you're a fucking retard. They're not gonna flop because of how much money they've made over the last 12 years. And the proof is in the fact that it took them 12 years to make a new one. you're fucking delusional.

>>1223425 I don't want nigger simulators on my nintendo console, so I hope they stay the fuck away

>>1254321 Not like it can run on it anyways

>>1254248 TOTAL. WHALE. DEATH.

>>1255429 Would run about the same as GTAV on 7th Gen consoles when it released in 2013.

Rockstar hasn't fucked up even one mainstream title when they actually developed it. The worst they've done is average. I'm positive that the gameplay is going to be good but the story is going to be woke trash that's exactly why you shouldn't buy the game

>>1191120 I don't understand why they always go with the most ugliest, stereotypical nigger designs every time?

>>1261054 Have you been to the US?

>>1261081 No and even if I did, why would I want to see realistic niggers in my vidya?

Interesting, Miami is actually getting way less black. Hispanic probably includes Cubans and stuff though?

>>1261497 >that 4% increase of white is just spic mutts going: I'M WHITE Grim

>>1193214 Who the fuck is going to pay 100 dollars for a game? Be a little jewish once in your life (financially)

>>1261649 If a $60 game was available for $100 and didn't have microtransactions, DLC or other stuff in exchange, I would buy it if I really wanted it. Maybe anyway. That's what Disgaea 7 did and I almost bought that.

>>1261673 Anon don't be retarded and have some self restraint for your wallet, or just pirate it.

>>1261708 I did, to be fair.

>>1261649 Every one of my coworkers that plays vidya is talking about getting it day 1 regardless of taking it in the ass to do so. It's retarded as fuck, but what can you do other than refuse to buy anything priced like that yourself? If it means that going into the next few years there will be a lot of high-profile games that I'll never play, then so be it.

>>1188609 Can't be assed to buy a new console just to play this game if it isn't coming out on PC on release date. I would probably pay 100 dollars for it if it did come out on PC as I have gotten more than my money's worth on GTA Online at this point with all the free content it has come out with. My estimation is that GTA 6 will be the last successful AAA title attempting to do what it is trying to do. There will be no more PUBGs, CODs, Fortnites, or Overwatches/Marvel Rivals after this. The market is too saturated and those already established juggernauts will stay while all other attempting to break into the market will fall to the wayside. More than likely the market will not crash, but plateau with the aforementioned slop being served as the main course while indie and AA studios are releasing the occasional bangers. No more explosive growth.

>>1261916 Why should you care what your coworkers are doing unless they're your friends?

>>1260918 not with modern soy optimization. it will run like shit even on current gen consoles

what makes people automaticaly think it will end up as succesful as V and not a dissapointment like IV?

>>1262026 Explosive growth hasn't happened since the 7th Generation anon.

>>1264092 Both IV and V were dissapointments. It will sell extremely well regardless, normalfags are retarded and will praiss the dumbed down mechanics R* will add stolen fron other games. Even today there are retards that still think Gun Game was a gamemode created for COD/Battlefield.

>>1223210 >Even if GTA6 runs on switch 2 hardware with no issues, I don't think Nintendo would want it on their platform because it doesn't fit their image. Their image of what? Family-friendly? Anon please, that stopped being a thing long time ago, the Switch made it very obvious at the very least. More specifically it was never the case with the main Japanese branch, NoA was probably pushing this idea decades ago but only because americans like to infantilize their own fellow men. Switch has gotten titles like Red Dead Redemption, Saint Row, Cyberpunk, Yakuza, Ninja Gaiden, Dying Light, etc. between all the +18-rated games.

I feel like it will have a "Windows Vista" effect like IV did. people will try the new game, dislike it, and go back to V.

>>1261054 >why does my satirical game turn people into stereotypical caricatures???!!! Gee anon, I can't figure that one out. I'll have to think it over for a couple weeks, I'll get back to you when I figure it out.

>>1261517 It could actually be whypeepo moving down to Florida. t. Jew Yorker who knows a few people who moved there because they hated living in a totalitarian state.

>>1188609 I really wish Rockstar would stop making this fucking shit games. RDR2 was very good but GTA hasn't been 'fun' since GTA3. I'd love it if they made another Manhunt or Bully, just anything but this dogshit cashgrab normalfaggot game. It's a shame that their proprietary engine barely gets any use.

>>1261517 I know this is going to fall flat in places like this but there are Cubans that are 100% white. I grew up in the Tampa area and knew a ginger girl from a Cuban family. There where a few other guys that could easily pass for spaghetti nigger or southern euro. Not saying the majority is like that but it's not that rare either. Also, last time I was in downtown Miami there was a huge surge of eastern euros and what I presume where argies. I'll take that any day over more niggers, especially haitians.

>>1264503 We've watched them slowly turn into what they parodied in a lot of ways

>>1188609 No, but it will cost $100 and you'll have dipshits online that aren't even journos defending it by claiming its due to the economy(tariffs and the looming recession), just like what happened to the Nintendo Switch 2 games.

>>1264090 Very true

>>1282053 I just find it funny because the country used to consider Italians and even the fucking Irish, subhuman.

>>1283260 To be fair, the Irish have never contributed anything to humanity except for cheap labor and the lesser of the two UK whiskeys.

>>1286532 And yet, they're Caucasian

>>1233338 Then the expansions, GTA02 development and upkeep/etc. are included. They still need to exceed GTA5's totals by a good margin to justify spending that much money.

>>1201621 >streamers Oh shit I hope they make it 2025 relevant and have dance mobs, people recording tiktoks in the street, and love streamers. >>1207117 No because he's already prison gay

There will never be a second vidya crash. The scenarios that lead to the first crash are incredibly different from the current scenario, which is just games are coming out that some places don't like while others will buy and play for a bit.

>>1287408 Of course there will be. We are about to enter a global depression. The games industry is a bunch of fat gay retarded activists who can't make impressive games. Pricing is going up due to inflation. It is economically impossible for the games industry to survive the oncoming global depression.

>>1286608 It's almost as if skin color doesn't tell you everything about a person. Crazy innit?

>>1286608 >>1287916 If you want to be specific, the Irish and Basques aren't "white" in sensu stricto. They are remnants of the old blood.

>>1191702 this. the Star Wars sequels and Mass Effect 3 and Andromeda illustrated this perfectly: when consumers trust a brand a bad entry will not be punished. sale backlashes are delayed by at least one release. people punished each of the follow ups to the horrible The Force Awakens, after the shit mystery box rehash of Star Wars 1977 (but with a lame chick instead of Luke Skywalker) set records at the box office. and only Andromeda flopped even though it was Mass Effect 3 that really disappointed people with its "choose a color" endings. same studio, another example: Veilguard flopped but I bet nobody like Inquisition already. GTA 6's sales are mostly caused by popularity of GTA 5. whatever actual product they ship hardly matters for its own sales. the sales of the next game in the series will show what people really thought of GTA 6 after buying it.

>>1289293 Mass Effect 3 was not a bad entry is was a good entry that could have been great if it wasn't rushed out the door

>>1288133 "white" is a retarded term coined by jews and amerimutts to confuse europeans so they can subtly group themselves among european populations while going unnoticed. FUCK JEWS FUCK AMERIMUTTS FUCK ISRAEL

>>1289357 "white" was used long before kikes had a stranglehold on Europeans or American. It did originate in America, but was quickly used in other anglophone nations as an easy way to identify people from the local wildlife or farm equipment.

>>1289411 >long before kikes had a stranglehold on Europeans or American

>>1264092 >a dissapointment like IV? If you mean financially, then no, as that game made 2 billion dollars in sales.

>>1290169 I don't think they're going to make another V. I think they're going to be successful, but it won't be replicated to the same degree.

>>1188609 I think the video game industry will fold even before GTA 6. Nintendo is already leading the way with $80+ games which could soon become an industry "standard". Too many remakes/remasters/sequels and not enough new actual interesting games. Parts of games are partitioned in the form of DLC or Season passes and consoles in terms of graphic fidelity have already peaked. None of the home consoles are going to have the flexibility or power of the PC and normies will not buy home consoles in an uncertain economy especially with the current tariffs. GTA 6 will simply be the final nail in the coffin for triple A gaming and it will have to start over again.

>>1189645 Agreed. It will be a giant bloated piece of shit too. One of the biggest problems I don't see being talked about is the location is a major blunder. Having it take place in Miami, or greater Florida, is there is no verticality like in GTAV. That severely limits what you can do with the game. It's a giant step back.

>>1290198 This would be true if most gamers didn't have battered woman syndrome and thus cheerfully accept whatever fresh watery mudbutter is pushed out of AAA gaming's puckering, hemorrhoid-riddled sphincter.

Don't think it's gonna fail since people are gonna be buying it Day one before patches since normalfags will never learn. At best it's just gonna be a slow down along with AAA gaming industry. I forgot that GTA V had flying cars and bikes in their multiplayer. "IF" they ever get to the multiplayer segment of GTA VI will they have to reintroduce them in various updates or will they just be greedy and lock it behind a paywall.

>>1291631 >"IF" they ever get to the multiplayer segment of GTA VI There is no "IF". They have no reason to not keep doing what they are doing but this time with gta6 lol. All the extra content is being dumped in multiplayer where it misewell be locked behind paywalls because of all the grinding you'd need to do to acquire them.

I have a hunch that Nungie is next on the AAA chopping block. Marathon looks like it'll be mediocre at launch, and charge people $40 to join in a sphere where people are accustomed to F2P Apparently they've been unprofitable for a while too. So we'll see how things shake out

>>1188609 There are far too many 12-year-olds with access to their parents' credit cards for GTA6 to fail, anon.

>>1189582 This argument was said to apply to ubisoft and asscreed as well. Look how that turned out. And before that it was star wars, and disney movies.

>>1189582 Knowing Rockstar, they will probably shoot themselves in the foot by releasing the game only for the PS5 initially, then releasing it again for the PS6, and finally releasing it on PC and other consoles even later.

>>1286532 Hi, jew. >>1289357 Hi, other jew. Do you really think this bullshit is going to be believed by actual white people?

>>1291897 >t. Micky McSpud

This thread is a disaster.

>>1308017 no u

>>1308017 Are we going to delete it since they claim may 2026 will be the release date? The switch 2 is the new boogieman and rockstar seem happy to let them get kicked around instead.

My expectations: >GTA VI release date announced >open beta multiplayer demo released a few months before >it's wacky shit with elongated necks phasing through ceilings, but normalfags gonna normalfag and there isn't any overt tranny propaganda so it could be worse >GTA VI launches as a PS5/XSeX exclusive a week before the PS6 >sells 6 million copies within 24hours >framerates dip into the 20s often during regular gameplay >fake frames cause motion sickness >even worse ragdoll AI than V >half-baked gameplay features on the level of pajeet AI-written Lua scripts everywhere with no thought for balance or fun, primarily meant to BTFO dumb gamergaters who said the game would have less features than V or SA >multiplayer mostly works and runs better than singleplayer due to the reduced pedestrian density >phone companion app has a fully-fledged Princess Robot Bubblegum gacha that can unlock shit in the online mode, though of course it's culturally adjusted for modern audiences in spite of ex-Nexon devs working on it >first few weeks are rife with occasional bugs, absolutely rabid shilling on every corner of the Interwebs, incest memes, Amazon FireTV personalized ads alerting you to GTA VI multiplayer events and shitloads of easy money exploits using the hastily slapped together minigames >things eventually calm down and the game improves somewhat with major bugfixes to shekel exploits in exchange for gameplay and balance adjustments that could be considered fun >everything seems fine for a few months, but then the Blackrock-funded MDCU's latest brave and stunning ballbuster is a complete and utter box office bomb >Blackrock wants more shekels to offset its loss.jpg and Rockstar has to comply lest they be Metoo'd etc. >Devs have to hastily rape their recently released and warmly received first major multiplayer expansion into a near-unrecognizable state with many previously "free" features now having premium currency exclusive upgrades which are now practically required to beat any of the new heists >/vig/ autists devise obscenely complicated soccer team sized exploits going as far even as manipulating server RNG thanks to another recent Intel vulnerability, only to be met with gimped rewards for successful heists and missions across the board due to all the rampant cheating that doesn't trip the anti-cheat and is rarely banned due to being necessary to get past the tutorial missions >the PC port releases in a moderately dysfunctional state due to publisher and investor pressure, hackers tear it open within milliseconds much to the chagrin of Denuvo >profits decline with fewer players than expected, some players try to go back to V only to find it overrun by ERP AI bots discussing Vaporeon positions endlessly while mining Shitcoin via ACE exploits right on the server's management engines >ex-Nexon subcontractors convince management to spin off the PRB gacha into its own thing to keep the shekels flowing >this is successful and while nowhere near blarch numbers it pulls enough normalfags with a Funko Pop Fortnite crossover to temporarily ward off hungry investors >things seem to be improving again but then the IRS under Elon's orders unveils a major money laundering and tax evasion scheme involving USAID, Lockheed Martin, Microsoft, Take-Two, Zoey Quinn, Chris Roberts, Narendra Modi and the North Korean royal family to the tune of 6 gorillion IMF cheques >the legal costs and loss of investor confidence due to unrelated major worldwide market failures cause an impromptu restructuring of Take-Two and its assets, with the first casualty being the Koreans and other moderately competent individuals keeping GTA VI functionally afloat >bugs resurface, update frequency and quality grinds to a halt, AI influencers pronounce the game dead >butthurt Koreans silently move to various unofficial multiplayer mod projects that have since then sprung up only to be pursued by armed Colombian private investigators >gacha game is shut down in order to save costs, ironic weeb whales and soytubers abandon the game as VI itself is nearing Star Citizen levels of playability with rumors of bricked PS5s and the PS6 port being delayed again and again, income tanks as it was the gacha that was pulling in the shekels and not the main game with its recent Christopher Street Day expansion, 75% of the game's remaining "developers" cannot speak English and cheaters abuse the support AI bot to help them find new exploits >Megalians flown in to deal with the renegade Korean devs abscond with supple Negroes upon arriving in the US, Colombian mercenaries are thus ordered to deal with the unlicensed multiplayer mod developers by force >they try to gun down a developer in a Korean 'hood only to accidentally confuse him with a CCP agent posing as a Triad member on his way to deliver sacred Fentanyl incense to the local disadvantaged African-American community as a diplomatic gesture >in the ensuing LA riots a legal firm representing Take-Two is firebombed via drone by an unknown party, killing a Jewish employee >Dup reaffirms his continued unwavering support for Israel and orders a crackdown on evil violent video games to make America great again

The tallest skyscraper on Earth cost less to design, develop, and build than GTA 6.

>>1308000 >I concede the argument and admit you were right Neat.

>>1308017 >OP is a cuckchan refugee retard that's so low IQ and delusional that he thinks GTA6 will fail It was doomed from the start Even if the game is a pile of shit that even makes normalfags be put off, you won't see a sales dip until their next game. I doubt it will see GTAV numbers though, it's not 7th Gen anymore >Generation of 8 years >Normalfags hadn't dispersed to mobile and PC yet so you needed a console to play the popular new thing >7th Gen consoles sold more combined than 8th Gen and 9th Gen >PS5 hasn't even reached PS3 lifetime sales in 5 fucking years The PS5 and Xbox Series are a joke to even half educated normalniggers, and while many will likely buy consoles for GTA, like I said, they won't even come close to GTAV numbers like many AAA executives and journofucks desperately want so that more investement money is thrown their way after GTA6s success. It won't fail, but it will disappoint everyone involved.

>>1315516 >thinks eating dog shit is an arguement ngmi

>>1315621 >writes like a nigger No wonder you're copying and pasting that bullshit.

>>1308017 How so?

>>1291778 yeah I fucking hate the recent practice of having late gen games be ported and remastered for the next gen just 1 or 2 years later. completely makes the original version obsolete and also doesn't give any new games for the next gen consoles. it wasn't like this. how many last gen games got "remastered" for next gen consoles just a year or two after the original games before the 7thgen->8th gen jump?

>>1218371 >>1218328 >>1218228 TF are you niggers smoking You probably haven't been on 4chan since 2020 or some shit

>>1315460 Please devote your time to something less schizophrenic

>>1315460 I'm going to screencap this in case this all comes true

>>1315723 Have you ever stopped to think that maybe, just maybe, perhaps there could be a chance people would take you seriously if they didn't smell fresh shit every time you opened your mouth? Do you think there's a connection between those two things possibly? Think nigger, think.

>>1315540 PS5 totals will probably surpass PS3 by the time it gets to be as old as the PS3 was when discontinued. Our newest data for PS5 from Sony was at 75 million in December (4 years after launch). PS3 was at 80 million in November 2013 (7 years after launch), and eeked out another 7.4 million by 2017. The real problem is that at GTA5's launch in 2013 it had both the 80 mil PS3s, and 70-something million Xbox 360s, while the Xbox Series X/S is only 28.3 mil as of June last year.

My money is on a Tomb Raider 2013 situation: The game absolutely smashes sales records, but the development/advertising budget is so obscene that the game doesn't even start profiting right away, which could potentially get Western AAA companies to actually reconsider their hideous dev cycles. OR the GTA Online money keeps rolling in so no one learns a lesson

The game is, absolutely, going to sell gangbusters on launch. Advertising, brand recognition, and the fact that this will be the first new GTA that the youngest generation plays at launch, will guarantee bonkers numbers. And even if people don't like the story, Rockstar will still make plenty from GTA Online. Literally too big to fail. The gaming Industry won't suffer another big crash like the ET one - it will just be a lot of major studios getting absorbed into unholy conglomerates.

>>1326411 > >OR the GTA Online money keeps rolling in Everyone ITT seems to be forgetting this fact. GTA 6 cannot fail financially because GTAO2 WILL keep bringing in money until the next game is released. That's a guaranteed 10 years of failed abortions (young and old) buying shark cards. The story could be 6 uninterrupted hours of gay furry poop sex and they will still make their money back, eventually.

>>1326655 >because GTAO2 WILL keep bringing in money until the next game is released One problem How is that looking for Red Dead Online? And if the assumption is true and GTA6 is just a facelift of GTA5 but with a new map, why would people suddenly shift over to GTAO2? None of their content nor progress is going to carry over, meaning that they'll have to start from scratch. And part of the fun with multiplayer is playing with all of your "friends". If you're friends are still playing GTAO, why would you buy the new one? In fact, taking things a little bit further, what's stopping R* from backporting the new Vice City map to GTAO proper?

>>1326668 Read Dead 2 Online died because, literally, their entire audience was busy playing GTA5 Online, and so that game got continuous content updates for years even after RDR2 released. 5 Online will probably get discontinued around the time of 6's release, and the people stupid enough to still be playing and enjoying GTAO after so many years will be more than happy to play Newest Thing as soon as humanly possible.

>>1326677 >5 Online will probably get discontinued around the time of 6's release, and the people stupid enough to still be playing and enjoying GTAO after so many years will be more than happy to play Newest Thing as soon as humanly possible. Are you sure? Especially with all the attention given to The Crew and it's shutdown?

>>1326679 >Are you sure? Especially with all the attention given to The Crew and it's shutdown? Yes. "Discontinue" was maybe the wrong word, but 5 will stop getting content updates sometime around 6's launch. Again - you overestimate the intelligence of dedicated GTA Online players if you think they won't happily buy the newest shiniest thing on Day 1

Theres no way GTA 6 doesn't have astronomically huge sales. Theres too many people who will buy it because its new, buy it because its GTA or just buy it because Tiktok or their zoomer coworker told them. But you really have to consider how much this piece of shit cost to make too. They're going to market the hell out of it and AAA games cost so much that all that taxpayer money could be used to feed a small country.

I think it's gonna sell extremely well, amazingly, breaking all sorts of records, and it's still not gonna make its money back. They've basically gambled on making the biggest game for the biggest payoff in an era that's repeatedly proven that this doesn't work, it's the little games that could that make their money back. Maybe in a few years of shark cards on super fucking overdrive though.

I didn't even play GTAV

I can't believe a (1) and done thread predicting Grand Theft Auto will flop got over 200 replies.

>>1193891 this, its gunna sell gangbusters regardless but i hope the modern decisions come with mass disappointment and a loss of trust

>>1205998 >Seriously, what game made in 1983 or prior would even be considered AAA? I frequently heard my Uncles who must be reaching their 60's nowadays, talk about how Joust was the shit. The Original Star Wars Aracde game Certainly impresses, Dragons Lair might be cheating because it's basically an animated movie, but in terms of production value that's similar to the kind of money that goes into AAA games. The real secret here is that home consoles were an after thought, The arcade was where it was at, the home console games were the Compromised versions, and if you wanted the real game you had to go to the Arcade. Arcade games were what was really pushing much of the Industry forward for years until around the Dreamcast where the home hardware could now reach power that was near indistinguishable from the actual arcade experience, but with the lack of Aracdes pushing Technology forward Innovation can stagnate. Aracde games can make their Hardware, design, Controls, and user interfaces entirely Unique to just that single game. Console games need to be made to fit what the console hardware provides you.

>>1188609 I think GTA6 not hitting sales goals will be the final nail in the AAA coffin.

>>1188609 > maybe even a crash. It will happen i remember being a lad and for once the craze going around was something i liked i got into it had fun but a few months later no one else was interested anymore and someone asked me to play the new craze and the normalfag friend i had told me "good job keeping up with things for once" when i ashed him why no one wanted to play the old craze he told me he only did that as it was what was popular at the time, That was the day i learned most people don't actually like most things and just follow what's popular even if they don't really like it.

>>1318874 So… no response, then. Nothing. Got it.

>>1327415 There aren't any actual rules here. Spam is allowed (or not) and opinions are allowed (or not) depending on RNG.

>>1332600 >It will happen >posts an anecdote about how people like buying the latest things, ehich would keep sales of new things going amazing conclusion there anon

It WILL suck It WILL be an unplayable, buggy mess It WILL have microtransactions for the most mundane shit It WILL sell like hotpockets You UNDERESTIMATE just how much brain mass your average normalfaggot lacks

>>1308017 It's so easy to spot a frogposter.

>>1332828 AAA is in free fall currently.

>>1332936 It's been in free fall since 2010

>>1332828 It doesn't really matter because indies are still better. Just don't play tranny neoretro sidescrollers.

>could have an awesome Bonnie and Clyde plot for a game with a fuck you budget >instead it's inevitably going to be something retarded and lame with 99.99% of the budget just being for graphics and grift

>>1188609 There is already somewhat of a "crash" but it depends entirely on how you define the word desu. GTA 6 is going to succeed like every other IP of its scale does. There are certainly enough consoles sold to support it, I recommend looking into the numbers yourself. Aside from financial speculation, I do not care, I have not played a Western game in over a decade.

>>1335678 There is no crash, just AAA imploding and everyone else laughing.

>>1332828 >Indies are also overwhelmingly left-wing outside of a few CRPG devs. Can you name them? I would love to play a good indie crpg.

>>1335886 Ironically the big AAA companies might just try to intentionally crash it as a table flip response to being rejected.

>>1335990 I'm pretty sure Iron Tower studio is politically conservative. They made Age of Decadence and it's side story Dungon Rats. It's Roman Empire Fallout. One of the neat things about AoD is each weapon type had it's role. Hammers reduced AC, spears gave a chance of stabbing when the foe moves into range of the spear. knifes increase your crit rate, bows cripple increasing AP costs, etc etc. And there was a lot of non-combat skills as well. But the biggest flaw was that you could only control your MC, so you really couldn't take full advantage of the weapon types. That's where dungeon Rats come in, you're prisoner that's been tossed into a prison mine mentioned in pass in AoD and you fight you're way out for your freedom. It keeps the combat system of AoD but severely guts the non-combat skill checks as a trade off. And there's colony ship, which also made Iron tower so it should play similarly but I haven't played it yet so I can in good conscience recommend it yet.

>>1335994 You can't intentionally crash it or crash it at all at this point, people will just play on PC or mobile, it's not the 80s anymore where if nobody made consoles or manufactured cardridge it was game over. There'll always be some chucklefuck making a new Vampire Survivor or Lethal Company or whatever.

>>1336160 You could crash it economically. If a lot of big players pull out suddenly it could cause a confidence crisis causing funding to dry up for even those developing for mobile and PC. If you recall the 80s game crash started just on consoles but it spread to both home computers and arcades, in the west. I mean yeah people will keep playing games, they kept playing them through both the home Pong crash and the console crash too. That doesn't mean that the industry couldn't violently contract.

God I can't wait to see what this abomination of a story is going to be so I can laugh at it. My bet, it's going to be a stupid love story where Jason gets cucked by Lucia or Jason has to deal with Lucia's bipolar disorder. I'm not touching this game with a 10 foot pole but I laugh at all the retards who will inevitably buy it and who will defend this shit

>>1336200 >If you recall the 80s game crash started just on consoles but it spread to both home computers and arcades It wasn't a gobal nor westernl crash it was a US crash. While consoles and arcade markets suffered the PC market was unaffected in the US. Europe was unaffected because they were a predominantly PC market. >big players pull out suddenly it could cause a confidence crisis causing funding to dry up for even those developing for mobile and PC The only way I see the moblie market could 'crash' is if there's significant crackdown on gacha and lootbox mechanics, from EU legislation. PC live service games could 'suffer' if Ross' campaing of "stop killing games" is succesful, again that requires EU legislation. But PC as a whole I don't see crashing unless AI slop gains significant foothold or being forced to watch ads in game. Which Gaben is vehemently against both. So PC won't crash until Gaben dies/retires so about 5-10 years if he retires, maybe 20 if stays until he dies. If there's any 'crash' symptoms that are going to happen it's that mirosoft and playstation will give up consoles and attempt UMPC tier handhelds. A few AAAs will go bankrupt chasing $80+ games when said games are meh to shit to even normies. You can get away putting out shit games at 60 maybe even at 70 but +80, you gotta be good.

>>1335678 > I have not played a Western game in over a decade. I can smell the cumshrooms through the screen.

>>1336425 >it's going to be a stupid love story where Jason gets cucked by Lucia You sound too excited by this prospect, I'm going to assume that you have cheating on the mind so much that you outright enjoy it. It's a AAA game with a fuckhueg budget behind it; unless the developers are extremely pretentious like Naughty Dog with the Last of Us 2, they are going to play things extremely safely like a CoD game because they cannot risk alienating any demographic.

>>1336647 >The only way I see the moblie market could 'crash' is if there's significant crackdown on gacha and lootbox mechanics, from EU legislation. Didn't EU just start going against needing to buy currency in large lots to not pay an absurd upcharge?

>>1336080 Thank you, I'll check them out.

>>1337003 >they cannot risk alienating any demographic. If they don't let me cheat on the latina with a younger and hotter girl who isn't a messed up hoe out of jail they've already alienated me.

>>1202868 Ok smartass, When will the next economíc crisis come and When will it start?

>>1337006 >Didn't EU just start going against needing to buy currency in large lots to not pay an absurd upcharge? I believe so, but what I meant by 'sigificant crackdown', would be treating those game as online gambling and have to follow those laws as well. So all gacha and lootbox games would 18+ be default and the users would have to prove they're +18 as well to prevent underage gambling. This would cut a significant part of the player demographic as a result.

>>1315513 Because they used indians, pakis and other subhumans. In 20 years that shit will crash down, unless they contract me of course

>>1337003 >they cannot risk alienating any demographic. Except for sane white people.

>>1337141 >So all gacha and lootbox games would 18+ be default and the users would have to prove they're +18 as well to prevent underage gambling. Kids below 18 don't have access to a bank card (and if they somehow do, it begs the question what the parents are doing) in european countries, at least in mine, so it makes the whole thing rather moot. You also end up games like Balatro being forced a PEGI 18+ rating or straight up deleting any form of gambling even if real money isn't involved.

>>1337141 EU does not matter for gacha games, it's probably a loss of revenue serving the region for most providers. You hope to make up for it with merch/upsales somewhere else. I assume Lootboxes will be a bigger loss given MOBAs and CS2 etc. NA is also largely unimportant for gacha. Pretty much any Western change in laws will just mean Japan pulls service for said place, many devs and publishers already don't bother given the byzantine content policies that exist (officially and unofficially) I am personally hoping for a complete blackout of the West, that would be the best case scenario but it's nowhere near certain yet.

>>1337911 Well the EU is big enough force apple to make usb c a standard international market instead of just being an EU only product. With apple being obsessed proprietary software and hardware they just make it an EU only thing but they didn't. I assume it could be the same for video games as well; Too big to carve out an exception or drop out of the region. >I am personally hoping for a complete blackout of the West, that would be the best case scenario but it's nowhere near certain yet. I don't know about blackout but china isn't going put up with actor unions in the west judging how terribly SAG strike went against genshin impact. Although that was more SAG actors shitting the bed so hard that players turned against the actors than anything else.

I love seeing pc niggers get hyped up for this shit product when they aren't going to see this for at least another year after it gets released on consoles.

LEAVE THE BILLIONAIRES ALOOONNNNEEEEE

>>1338482 >they aren't going to see this for at least another year after it gets released on consoles. I'm already planning on not seeing it until it's under $20, if there isn't a solution to pirate it by then. Fuck off with your FOMO shilling, Goldburg.

>>1338651 You can deny it all you want but that's just not how Rockstar releases games lol and you can bet that they weren't sitting on their hands all this time and they won't have fancy new drm technology preventing people from pirating the game. Rockstar always releases their games on consoles first and you're a nigger for even wanting to play Grand Theft Nigger 6 lol

>>1336647 >The only way I see the moblie market could 'crash' is if there's significant crackdown on gacha and lootbox mechanics, from EU legislation. The big names in gacha at least will pull their product from EU territories before giving up their methods. Small little "don't force people to pay for more currency than they need" changes are not threatening to the model but trying to legislate lootbox/gacha pull mechanics will see your Mihoyos and whoever else just up and block Europe. The overwhelming bulk of their paypigs are from America and Asia and I don't doubt they would be willing to abandon Europe to keep their model in place. RIP EA though FIFA lootboxes need the Euro console market to exist.

>>1338482 Was this a shit attempt at recreating the "never ever" meme? Do you like humiliation or something?

>>1339410 What does it say at the bottom of the screen in trailer 2 at the end? Because it's ommiting something lol

>>1338785 I doubt they'd drop Europe entirely. More likely they'll just have a flat rate for Euros to Gems (or whatever it's called) only and dollars/pounds/yen/yuan will keep the shit until legislatures keep up.

>>1339410 He's a (You) slut who got a 3 day timeout from ye olde cuckchan. From the pic, he's a /hgg/ niglet that posted some sofcore core, got banned, came here and wanted to do some drive by shitposting so he decided to bait this thread.

>>1282053 I believe it t. guy who knows some cuban postman who gets sunburned and will tell you how much he hates commies

>>1339490 This is you btw

>>1282053 Well, yeah, anon. A small caste of pureblood whites from Spain/Portugal remain in all of the former Latin American colonies. Your ginger was probably from Vasconia or Galicia originally.

>>1282053 There's a Cuban grocery near me (I live in TX) and they all dress up like they're going to the bar smelling like fabuloso they're all as pale as can be, facial structure is another story

>>1339551 They're not pale, it's just that most of America is brown now

https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_Grand_Theft_Auto_V A team of approximately 1,000 people developed Grand Theft Auto V over several years. Rockstar Games released the action-adventure game in September 2013 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, in November 2014 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, in April 2015 for Windows >in April 2015 for Windows Lol. Coupled with Rockstars drm, I bet it will be at least 4 years before you can pirate it when it comes out for consoles.

I think the economics and trends don't support holding out on not having a PC port for over a year even if you charge $100 and maybe $120 standard to make up the difference just for the console alone to be worth it. WIll younger zoomers and gen alpha buy it over consuming slop on their phones? AAA budgets have grown a lot so I don't know if that makes up for the shortfall and certainly increased staff needed to make GTA VI especially shareholder expectations which will probably be the thing Take Two and Rockstar will optimize for.

>>1340249 Explain GTA 5 then. Because to me at least with trailer 2 it looks like they are trying to make people with a PC impatient enough to the point they have to buy a legal copy by forcing you to buy a console

>>1340375 GTA V came out at the tail end of Gen 7, Gen 8 got ports before PC release came out as said two posts up from your own said so they effectively got to double dip. This isn't happening this time. Trailer 2 while looking pretty great still isn't heads and shoulders above anything else to scream as a must buy especially given >>1335105 will happen most likely. Sure, you can count on impatience but I think shareholders are going to be more impatient than me personally. I will also bet that double dipping won't nearly as prevalent when everyone's wallets are feeling pain right now.

>>1340420 >Sure, you can count on impatience but I think shareholders are going to be more impatient than me personally Explain Nvidia then lol

>>1340524 Please try making sense

>>1326738 red dead redemption is also a good game, and how much does they cost to make them? but it didn't sell much does it.

>>1340556 Yes, it did you spic Not as much as GTA but still sold fuckloads.

>>1340420 Your theory is plausible but rockstar still has enough social capital to make people desperate to get away with delaying the PC for years.

>>1193009 >covered in mud >clean clothing brace for woke impact! They'll still make $$$, there's enough NPCs on the real life server. Look at how many millions injected themselves with untested genetic engineering therapy in 2021 because someone on a screen told them to.

the "satire" and "pop culture" of this game would already be outdated when it comes out. so much shit happened since the game started development around 2020 >Ukraine >10/7 >Trump's victory >end of the postwar liberal order >rise of "noticing" of course rockstar won't cover any of this shit. they'll just make the same old shitty "republican bad" jokes like it's 2005.

>>1340673 let me guess, I'm gonna drop dead in two more weeks?

>>1193009 >we might witness a renaissance of game development There is literally no other studio that has the time and budget to make a game of this size. >>1193815 Every GTA game has had retarded NPCs that pretty obviously satirize the average American

I'll predict GTA VI's sales will be between IV and V's. I do think it will sell more than IV since gaming is more popular now than in 2008, but V was a success in a scale that simply cannot be replicated

Why has nobody on youtube said that this game is all multicultural niggers? All I see youtubers is praising the graphics of this game, yet nobody is pointing out how there's very little white people in this new game.

>>1342323 Because anything that says something like that is literally banned from YouTube, anon. How do you not know this?

>>1341301 You might not drop dead in 2 weeks but it's only a matter of time before you have a severe blood clot in your head. And like a good boy you'll think it's just a "coincidence" and it's because of something else

>>1340543 Nvidia is doing just fine despite not selling as much because of the artificially inflated prices. The fact that you think that trend from that shitty graph is going to continue with the release of GTA 6 on consoles is delusional. It will be the sole reason why sales spike in the exact opposite direction for consoles

>>1342514 Surely there should be a way to say it without dropping the hard R? How come I can't find such video

>>1343443 Synthetic Man will say something to that effect when he gets to it I'm sure.

>>1343122 They're doing well because their main business now is AI shit and providing companies hardware. Rockstar has GTA, Take2 has GTA, and fuckall else with any relevance, all their eggs are on that basket.

>>1340665 Possibly. But we could see a Starfield moment from them and fans can turn on a dime. It still took 2 bad releases for it to happen. TES7 hype has drastically deflated.

>>1343480 >TES7 hype has drastically deflated Nah look how many fags were willing to eat up that Oblivion UE5 abomination. These aren't people anymore, they're drones.

>>1343480 >>1343485 It's TES6, we won't live long enough to see a TES7.

>>1341239 The current state of US politics isn't great for either party, its at a point where its exceedingly difficult to parody something that's already cartoonish. >>1343480 There's a few differences between Starfield and GTA6. Starfield promised a lot but ultimately came up short compared to not only No Mans Sky but also prior Bethesda games. Even the DLC didn't manage to turn around the public perception. GTA6 meanwhile is mostly shrouded in mystery, save for the 2022 leaks. Rockstar isn't promising a lot right now either, they're keeping their cards close to their chest. All they really need to do to wow people is to make a GTA game that blows 5 out of the water which isnt that hard in terms of writing at least, and its still a PS3 era game at its core with TECHNOLOGY that rivals if not even surpasses GTA4/RDR2.

Remember when people who died in vehicle accidents and shit were being listed as covid deaths by the state in order to get extra funding for their hospitals? That's what you are doing.

>>1326679 eos in games has been a thing for a while now, not sure why ubisoft and the crew are the ones in the spotlight really. some games are just online only and then they're done...

>>1343475 Sometimes playing the long game will make you more money; a good example being the stock market. If you seriously think Rockstar isn't going to hold off on publishing GTA6 for windows for at least 1 year you are delusional. You are also delusional if you think they won't have cancerous drm which will delay it being pirated for a long time after. You're pic related if you deny it

>>1344306 lol no I don’t remember that because it never happened go petal you’re retarded conspiracy theories in /pol/

>>1344460 >lol no I don’t remember that Selective memory? Truth tends to reveal the ugly side of things, that's why many choose to reject it.

Once cucked always cucked lol. Gta has always been woke garbage.

>>1349071 In previous GTAs rainbow people were the butt of the joke, but this time it might be different since allegedly they will not "punch down".

>>1340665 >still has enough social capital Plus the money they got for no PC port, Sony and Microsoft are paying out the ass for that as it sells consoles.

>>1349159 Yep, but they will release it. PC is too big to ignore but they will do their own event. Speaking of which, it's why the PC Gamer showcase event in June in comparison to every other company presenting is so barren, because there's no active money for marketing while the console space has it. Despite that, as said, mostly everyone is porting to PC nowadays.

>>1349748 I would have never guessed this in a million years. With personal computers, desktops and laptops sales declining, this is almost unbelievable.

>>1342323 Thats literally Miami for you, you cave dweller retard, miami and florida at large is a de facto latín colony

>>1342323 Florida is full of spics from either Mexico, Cuba, Puerto Rico and etc.

>>1342323 >ware da whyte wimin? shut up nigger

>>1188609 with modern game developing cycles it's take years for the shit that's already in the pipe to clear out. Years.

>>1349748 This. The thing about GTAV is that it still has so much attention in metrics like Twitch because of the mod and RP community. There are entire communities dedicated to RP servers in GTAV to the extent that its practically Second Life for a new generation. The fact that several of those RP modders are working with R* now on GTAVI development tells me they're trying the make the game as accessible to modding as possible to essentially turn it into Minecraft Realms or Fortnite worlds for adults.

I'm going to laugh at all you niggers when this game is online only so it becomes impossible to play pirated lol

>>1365605 >so it becomes impossible to play pirated lol Okay, so Cuckstar is basically telling pirates to play a different game. Where's the issue? Especially when these GTA-clones over thebpast couple decades, with everything from Saints Row and Mafia to officially licensed media like The Godfather and Scarface to games with big name stars like Wheelman to even the Driver series that ORIGINATED the gameplay GTA is creditted with. There's also all the different types of sandbox games like Yakuza for urban, inFamous and Crackdown and Prototype for capeshit, AssCreed for parkour, Need for Speed and Forza Horizon for racing, Stalker and Fallout for apocalypse, and the list goes on.

>>1365605 >Wanting to play SJW GTA, or anything else by modern Rockstar.

It'll probably sell a decent amount shy of GTA V, between it and IV I have no idea why everyone is hyping this up to be some humongous record breaker when it's on a less popular generation of consoles than the 7th & 8th gens during an economic recession

>>1367414 Never said I did but I'm going to laugh at the retards in this thread pretending like they aren't going to try to get it as soon as they can. They deserve to be laughed at. Same can be said for the people who are actually going to buy this shit

>>1367964 Because muh graphic fidelity anon, that's why. People aren't buying as many games on those consoles because there's hardly anything worth buying

>>1367414 How will it compare to Saints Row 2022? The game will probably sell well barring a GTA trilogy port tier disaster and even in that scenario it ought to sell as many units as TLOU2.

>>1368434 But anon GTA 5 has sold like 200m copies, there aren't even that many current gen consoles in circulation and everyone seems to think GTA 6 will sell x3 that amount at a 100$ price point

>>1368962 I don't think anyone could expect that from GTA VI in just one generation. As you stated, GTA V came out on the PS3/360 and and was ported to PS4/XBOne (and by proxy of backwards compatibility) PS5/XSX. The game has been on the market for over a decade. Although they wouldn't benefit from double dip sales like the earlier generation, they're going to still get a lot of sales. It would be best to compare it to Year 1 Sales on the PS3/360. Looking at a few stats online (https://www.statista.com/statistics/1247955/gta-v-unit-sales-worldwide-total/), the game sold ~40 million in Year 1. The PS5 has a current install base of about 75 million, and the XS an install base of 28 million. If we round that to about 100 million, then they would need an attachment rate of 40% in order to match. That is an insanely high attach rate during a recession, but its not impossible. In addition, this will he the game that will force current PS4 gamers (nobody is playing on Xbones) to PS5/XSX. It is the definition of a system seller. With at least 40 million active players on PS4 still, there is a BIG potential console sales bump. (Especially since zoomers and millenials love to do Klarna / Afterpay on their expensive purchases) I have no idea if the 2 billion number is accurate or just marketing, so I can't even begin to think about what "profitable" would look like for R*

>>1368351 >i'm going to laugh at the people who say they won't play it, and also the people who play it So your thesis is that literally everyone in this thread will play it? I don't think I agree.

>>1365605 I have no desire to play it whatsoever and would never pay for it even if I had hardware that could run it. I don't support these behaviors.

>>1378424 Those crowds are going to be protected, good luck with that lol

>>1378675 No its not actually lol. That nigger with his graphs pretending that there isn't going to be a big delay for the pc release clearly wants to play the game

Such attention to detail!!111 What a piece of shit overrated franchise holy shit lol.

>>1381808 It is indeed overrated, but it used to be fun until 4

>>1381549 I can't wait to see someone drive a tank into a queer and have the tank instantly explode while everyone in the parade is unharmed.

>>1381808 I like how Niko is face palming here, kek

>>1368485 He doesn't quite seem to know what a SR 2022 scenario would entail. That entry severely toned down the violence depicted in cinematic cutscenes and the sexual imagery is basically non-existent compared to SR1 and 2. Not to mention that the game's development was extremely fucked, it launched in a very unfinished state with all the bugs that were present. From what little they've shown off, there's still quite a bit of sexual content, far more than SR reboot in just two damn trailers. It probably wont be that much different from what's in GTA Online, and it'll be GTA so the same amount of violence should still be there. The only real questions are how much content will be cut in favor of GTA Online 2, how empty the map will be, and whether or not it'll be buggy as shit like Cyberpunk or any modern open world AAA game.

>>1384622 As if toning down the sexuality and violence in cutscenes were the main reasons SR 22 failed

>>1386010 Well like I said, the game was also buggy as fuck. Maybe it could have done fine enough because it and Watch Dogs Legion were the only few GTA clones out on PS5/Series consoles, but playing as a bunch of young hipsters in a buggy as fuck open world game with less adult content than its predecessors would have been a hard sell even in 2016.

>>1386670 >Well like I said, the game was also buggy as fuck Aaaaaaand? What else? Come on, you know.

>>1387064 I really don't know what else that I havent mentioned already. >Severely toned down violence and sexual content, not even when compared to earlier entries but when compared to R*'s own PS2 games >Buggy as fuck on release despite long delays >Lame as fuck looking new Saints shown off in the reveal trailer, they weren't any better as actual characters in the final product I don't know what else you're thinking of. The dialogue was terrible but there wasn't much of a way to gauge how terrible it and the story would ultimately be pre-release. Santa Ileso as a setting doesn't really benefit from being set in a desert, but it wasn't that bad a map when next to Steelport; even if it still wasn't on par with Stilwater. Mike Watson dying literally a day before the reveal trailer also hurt, especially knowing that he wouldn't have been able to see Saints Row 2 on PC unfucked the way fans deserved, but that was unrelated from the reboot and people still didn't expect Deep Silver to kill the project yet.

>>1386670 The gameplay, driving (which is like 80% of games like this), and story just sucked. GTA 6s story will undoubtedly be sensationalist lowest denominator drivel that you could easily poke holes in and who the fuck knows what the gameplay will be like since they refuse to release any footage. If both the 2/3 of these things are shit in this game, the game is pretty much irredeemable garbage

>>1387509 Was the case for 4 and 5 No fun allowed cynical trash with barely any content.

>>1191120 It will be like KCD:2 where it is obviously woke but people will bend over backwards to pretend it isn't.

>>1387552 GTA 4 was definitely the worst of the bunch with its piss filter, horrible driving, horrible radio, and boring story. GTA 5 was no fun allowed and it was woke. Micheal is expected to take his bitch after she got canonically ran through, Trevor is cartoonishly nuts, and Franklin is just an "innocent" person being swept along in it all. Yeah, ok Rockstar.

>>1387624 >game set in medieval Europe >woke Pick one.

>>1400310 what the fuck is that retarded pepe supposed to be

>>1400322 >acting like your cuckchan trash is some "le ebin oldfag" meme

>>1400294 What fucking logic is that? You haven't noticed that they specifically target non-SJW things so as to destroy them? They are still making the SJW Lord of the Rings TV show, you know. But shieldmaiden Galadriel and sassy fat black woman dwarves aren't SJW, because its Lord of the Rings and therefore it can't be SJW. Next you'll tell me what what they did to Tawna in Crash 4 isn't SJW, or that what they did to the Dark Queen in that shitty newer Battletoads game isn't SJW. Amy Rose is now a tough warrior that isn't allowed to be in love with Sonic anymore, and in the movies Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles are adopted by an interracial human couple, and spend like half the second movie at a sassy fat black woman's wedding, and the Knuckles TV show has a whole episode called "The Shabbat Dinner" which is exactly what it sounds like, but it totally isn't because of SJW philosophies, folx! The Super Mario Bros. movie has Luigi be the damsel in distress, meaning the Super Mario Bros. barely interact in the movie (and then they have the nerve to act like their brotherly bond is a central theme at the end), so instead Peach can be Mario's mentor, a zillion times more powerful and capable than him (even remarking that the obstacle course that took Mario a montage of attempts to beat was so easy she did it on her first try), with Mario only saving the day because Peach is taken out by deus ex machina. But it totally isn't SJW, right? But yes, that Pepe that was posted in reply to you is obviously some post-exodus newfag halfchan trash. All the refugees have fucking ruined this site. And now here I am, arguing with one.

>>1188609 Problem with GTA games is 80% of the play time is padded by walking and driving to where you go.

>>1400294 >Pick one I really wish western devs would.

This shit is stupid and yet people will still praise gta6 despite it being woke as shit, it's shitty mission structure, and it's lack of a proper fast travel system which is only not there to waste your time.

>>1261081 There are more spicks than niggers in the average US town, and more whites and asians than both.

>>1189645 >Talented developers do not work at game studios anymore That's a good thing. I imagine they've moved on to greener pastures given their prior work environments. I look forward to the day when you can prompt a AAA open-world game with AI to bypass the garbage these art directors have created. Video games are due for a shakeup.

>>1222985 Max Payne is Remedy, Rockstar only made 3 and it sucked.

>>1432894 The asian population is roughly 6%. The african population is roughly 13%. The spic population is roughly 40%. Whites are the rest. Whites haven't been a majority since before 2000.

>>1222985 >Max Payne 1 >Rockstar

>>1222985 >oni >rockstar

>>1222985 >>1470871 >>1472498 >>1472781 A ton of these games aren't Rockstar. Rockstar wasn't making GTA until 2002 I think, when they bought out DMA. That means None of those earlier games like Wild Metal and Thrasher are Rockstar, either. They published some of these games, but that's not the same thing. Rockstar fans are just really fucktarded, they're like Blizzdrones circa 2012. I can't believe this thread is still active. This is still the dumbest OP on the catalog.
