GTA6 Extended Look

Note that they didn't say they wouldn't be playing it

🏴‍☠️

Ultrabased

It’s mostly take two. Not rockstar. yes rockstar have sacked lotsa people but the people who made the decisions are basically peons of take two. All the credit goes to take two imo.

Piracy isn't stealing.

I wonder what the DRM situation will be like.
Will they have some hopped up version of Arxan that's gonna be super hard to crack?
Or is the PC Release delay good enough that they aren't particularly worried about piracy?

Of course given the popularity and antecipation I'm sure there will be all forms of groups trying to take a stab at it, but I still wonder how it'll go down.

Pretty much. Steal it now and buy it in a few years during a holiday sale for 20 bucks.

GTA IV was the last one I've ever owned. Been tempted by 5:00 a few times but I have got enough games that I'll never play. I don't need it as well.

You just know it’s coming.

Cute thinking you'll get to retire in 20 years when you sink all your savings on hardware.

This game is what's finally going to push me upgrade my 3060Ti in a few years but... I'm not exactly hopeful on there being anything to upgrade to. Would prefer to skip nvidia and amd has decided to abandon the high end market but if I'm upgrading, I'd like to go up a tier or two, not just a few generations. I want to be blown away by the card that's going to have to last me the next 5-10 years.

I'm also guessing there won't be a new GPU generation out next year.

Sounds good, but what do you plan on doing in the game?

Guess Panam in Cyberpunk wasn't enough.

It says captured on ps5 at the very end

It's funny that so many people are disappointed that a GTA game looks like a GTA game. The absurd hype is going to come back to bite R* in the ass

I get some of the very well deserved hate for Rockstar but come on, it's one of the best looking games this year, and the fact it looks like that on, an apparently baseline, PS5 is nuts.

In a few years when they port it to PC and we we can throw it at a high end graphics card, it's going to look like real life. And it's clear that there is more then just graphics here.

Mind you, I have no idea how they are going to handle the online mode as GTAO was terrible. I hope they do better with that.

Sure does look a hell of a lot like GTA

The PC release will happen. It's the largest platform for this type of game now.

Wasn't GTA V initially released running at 30 FPS?

*In 2026.

It's kind of obvious they are double dipping on the anxious that would buy a console solely for GTA.

Supposedly, the version Cyberleek has is the PC version.

Dude it will be on PC. No GTA has ever launched on PC.

I wouldn't even say alleged, it was very blatant. An employment tribunal has already ruled against them and the case goes to full trial next month.

Im waiting for the PC version and a less than $50 price tag

*I'm an idiot

Quite possibly. The other side of the coin though is that I'm sure Netflix wanted the deal to pull in new subscribers, so if options to watch it elsewhere prevent that from happening, that could still be a win.

Didn‘t they fire the main writer for the games up until GTA5 or RDR2 almost a decade ago? The guy then went on to create his own studio and develop some crypto slop that is regarded as the worst game that released that year.

It’s like I’m taking crazy pills.

3 months from release we get a trailer with some gameplay, and it doesn’t look exciting. The movement during the shooting looks clunky as fuck, and reminds me of the stick-to-cover games of late 2000s.

I played all GTAs and liked both RDRs, but this just doesn’t pull me in. Graphics are great and I’m sure we have a huge map with lots of stuff to do, but the gameplay and mechanics seem dated.

I mean sure they've had money and time than God to make it, but boy did it look like they spent it well. The big thing for me is the real time lighting, a lot of lights are drawing shadows and a lot of objects are self-shadowing on each light... it's crazy!

It looks amazing everything about it is incredible. Except Jason's voice. It's so immersion breaking I can't put my finger on it. It's not that it just lacks emotion, Arthur's character in RDR2 lacked emotion most of the time. And he's a great character

This is something else entirely. It distracted me during the entire reveal and I found myself getting more annoyed with it as the trailer went. It sounds filtered and muffled like he was talking into a box fan. During recording

I don't think anybody does detail quite like Rockstar. When I finished Read Dead 2 I just sat through the credits in awe at the sheer amount of effort that had gone into it. Animals skinned while you watch, lines recorded twice for close and far away dialogue, whole hunting and animal systems. Subtle changes in dialogue depending on how you play.

Compare to "AAAA" games like Far Cry Avatar, with an equal number of systems, but none are really fleshed out, and the whole thing feels very half arsed in comparison.

I think the only game to really come close to them is Baldur's Gate 3.

Yeah, the online stuff is pure fucking greed, but I don't care for that. I don't play it. I never loaded GTAO or Red Dead Online. I don't demand I be allowed to pay extra for more DLC. It's all in the base game I already bought. I play it, I finish it, it goes on the shelf. Or it went on the shelf. RIP discs, I guess. :(

I will still recommend people wait. Wait for reviews, wait for initial audience impressions, and wait to play it on your platform of choice.

What I see is a game that has a lot of detail and some big cinematic moments that make for a good trailer. But whether all that detail translates into a genuinely fun experience remains to be seen.

For all we know, the rest of the game outside of the trailers could be nothing but ET trying to jump out of holes.

Apple make good hardware, their software is awful. It's really annoying because I really want a time of flight sensor on my phone so I can do some 3D scanning but I'll have to put up with apples awful operating system that won't talk to any computer that isn't a Mac

GTA5 lost me in the campaign, and I can't imagine GTA6 will be any better in that regard. Never bothered with the online features. I'm not even disappointed they aren't doing a PC release and doubt I'll buy it even if they do.

I mean, just the idea that a purchase of the game amounts to tacit support of their union busting bullshit is reason enough not to buy it. Their games sell the gangster fantasy, but GTA6 as a product is basically the antithesis of rebellion.

Yeah when they release it for the ps6

It's only a single player game. (Currently)

Well, plenty of people got fired for trying to form an union.

The patient gamer strategy has always paid off for me, and I have to recommend it to everyone else.

One of the games I finished most recently was Cyberpunk 2077. Great game worth playing today, not so great at launch. And on the CD Projekt topic, The Witcher 3 has also been on my to-do list for ages, and guess what's getting a remaster in a few more weeks?

There are too many games out there to play in one lifetime. When most games seem to be in their worst state at launch, why rush to buy when there's so much else out there to try while you wait?

To be fair, GTA 4 required mods to look halfway decent.

Edit: 4, not 3.

I posted it to c/piracy on lemmy.dbzer0.com. Not sure if linking the post will break rule 6 here

For a console game, I'm there with you. But sadly we lost that war long ago on PC.

This just looks like an expansion pack for gta5 imo

I don't even plan on buying this, but I think this is a wild take.

Because about 150 million people are going to play it in the next couple of years, which we can't say about any other video game that we know of.

They literally crashed Netflix, it's gonna make a trillion dollars

Now introducing our main character: Generic White Guy! I also didn't see one joke or parody... The thing that's expected of GTA... It used to be social commentary. This just looks like a cop show about drugs.

At the main entrance to the building been just some thugs, dropping a name and a short vibe check seems totally reasonable to me. The security guy for the business was at the elevator and to me it looked like he was texting with someone to confirm.

That's, like, the least ridiculous thing that happens in a GTA game in general.

I mean I don't really need more reasons. Between union busting and mass layoffs, people that actually worked on this are long gone and I'm not gonna give my money to those rich fucks.

Luckily they help out by delaying PC version and pricing the digital game like an old console.

Point to the spicy yet endearing character... Because I didn't see any. Saw some stiff cop-like stand-ins though.

Where was the social commentary? The jokes/parody about society? The fun stuff that made GTA5 a media storm.

CDPR won’t be far off with future witcher and cyberpunk games.

Already in the works and already bigger than GTAVI. It is called Star Citizen

I mean, what else is this community for, really?

Yeah, we do hate scummy fucking companies that fire employees for trying to form an union.

Fuck them!
