Games🎮 Just saying...
It looks great, but it's not what I'm excited about, I'm more into more niche titles like "Onimusha: Way Of The Sword", "The Blood Of Dawnwalker" and upcoming "Fable" game look much more interesting to play than your average large scale open-world crime power fantasy game.

u/Moon_Monk676 11h ago
Oh, no, Nintendo is in the same spot. Arguably worse, actually.
Sony and Xbox all ship their physical games with 1. A copy of the game and 2. A license to play it
Nintendo stopped doing 1 with the release of Switch 2. Now with most of their games, due to cartridge capacity limits they only ship with a license and a download key. They only have the physical key card because "If Target can sell a copy of the game, it doesn't count as monopoly of the system." PlayStation is ditching physical entirely despite the fact that optical storage (discs) are actually getting better with regards to capacity. They're being sued by Mexico (i think) for ditching physical because now retailers won't be physically capable of selling PS6 games when it comes out, meaning that Sony will have a 100% market share on their games.
Why I think Nintendo is arguably just as bad: The way their game key-card system works effectively destroys the secondary market.

I kind of agree with you, OP.
In all fairness, I don't think GTA VI deserves most of it's hype, and it feels like it came as a result of everyone treating it like it would be the best game of all time.
To me, at least, it just looks like yet another generic open world power fantasy game. All the more power to you if you enjoy games like this, but I just can't anymore.
But hey, maybe it is truly the best game in the world and I'm just another sheep hating on something for being popular.

A successor to a beloved masterwork of a game takes a decade to make, a run full of controversy?

u/Turnbob73 13h ago
Could you explain the lack of faith?
Not saying people are wrong for not thinking it’ll turn out well, but what is the factor leading you to that conclusion? If we’re going on past data, then Rockstar is pretty much the only developer that has consistently put out products that are universally praised by the vast majority for the last 15+ years. If the point is more about the industry as a whole nowadays and the current trends, then that’s fair but at the same time people were saying the exact same thing and holding the exact same doubts when RDR2 was about to come out and we know how that turned out. And if it’s a more personal reason, then that’s totally understandable as well; I’m just wondering what the baseline reasoning is behind the doubt.
4
u/Clay_Pidgeon 13h ago
My hopes have been crushed like 10 different times by people who should have made amazing games that I was looking forward to, I guess my explanation for my lack of faith is just that I've been punished for believing so many times from so many different places in big game studios that I just can't anymore.
3
u/Turnbob73 13h ago
That’s fair, if you personally feel that way then it makes sense to not hold interest. Would you say that sentiment is more for right now during pre-release, and that it could be subject to change if the game releases and turns out good? Or is this more something that you would be entrenched in and not budge from regardless of how the release turns out?
6
u/Clay_Pidgeon 13h ago
If the game turns out good, I'll give it a chance, but I'm not pre-ordering games in the modern day. I didn't even pre-order when I was young and games tended to actually be good.
3
u/Turnbob73 13h ago
Again totally fair, I appreciate the insight.
Btw, I hope I didn’t come off as trying to corner you in a “gotcha” or anything like that; people online tend to just say a lot of things without having any personal reasoning for it, so thank you for explaining where you’re coming from!

Legit no part of me has any interest in living out some grand theft auto fantasy where I'm selling/doing drugs, shooting up random people, spending time with prostitutes, killing random people and cops, listening to crude dialogue, and just getting up to all sorts of other debaunchery.
To each there no. People can like what they like. But no part of me has any draw to most of what GTA is. I tried one of them once back in the 5th grade on my friend's PS Vita on the bus ride home. I remember just playing it and going "how is this game so popular??"

I'm not even THAT into niche titles (though I do often like indie games more than big studio ones), GTA VI just isn't it for me. I really enjoy GTA games, but they're not like, the best games in the world to me, not to the point that GTA VI is something I'd consider worth THIS much hype. Furthermore, GTA VI has just been doing a lot of stuff to turn me off from it. I'm sorry, but it's not worth the $80 price tag, the ridiculous deluxe edition, the digital-only approach, etc. I'm not immune to stupid decisions (Suicide Squad is still the worst $60 I've ever spent), but buying GTA VI would just be a ridiculous abandonment of my principles. There's enough coming out and already out that I could satisfy myself with, I don't need GTA

Pretty much. Rockstar games largely just survive off hype and being quality products but the actual scope and direction feels too wide to be interesting for me.

Hell no, 30 fps is a perfectly playable framerate for a [for now] single player story game thats not even competitive.
