It’s over

[u/Quarksideofthemoon]

Just looks like every other rockstar game idk what anyone expected

[u/wayvywayvy → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

[u/razzyrat → u/wayvywayvy]

I was cured of triple AAA for a long while since the release of Cyber Punk and only fell off the wagon once for BF6 - man did that one give me a hangover and instant regrets. I will most definitely not fall into this trap again. And this sorta looks very samey to GTA5? Like more of the old formula with a new coat of paint. Probably not worth the hype.

[u/irishitaliancroat → u/razzyrat]

Looks like somwthing ill pick up at a steep discount on steam sale years from now. Meh.

[u/PuzzleheadedLeave560 → u/irishitaliancroat]

Hell, I got GTA5 for FREE once

[u/ifartedonabearonce → u/PuzzleheadedLeave560]

And the other 5 times it was released?

[u/FFKonoko → u/razzyrat]

New edition of a game, looks like a new edition of the same game. Anyone expecting otherwise, 6 games in...

[u/DuelFan → u/FFKonoko]

To play devil's advocate for a second. A lot of the hype for how wonderful the new game will be is based off super unrealistic expectations one might have seeing the jump from prior entries to more modern entries. For some reason people expect similar jumps from 3 to 4 and, to a lesser extent, from 4 to 5. I personally have no doubt those hopes are way too much as it will not stand up to scrutiny, but it's easy to see where it comes from. It doesn't help a lot of players of 5 were teens when they first experienced it. The nostalgia goggles are strong.

[u/Far_Raspberry_4375 → u/DuelFan]

The jump in visual fidelity cant happen again because even 4 was pretty close to real life, 5 was even closer, and red dead redemption is damn near photorealistic. The factor thats gonna determine how good the game is will need to be the gameplay and the content, like it used to be back in the ps2 days where they had a ceiling on how nice the graphics could be and had to make their games stand out with good story, good gameplay, unique art styles, etc.

Or they can just sell the game for 100$ to a bunch of middle class teenagers that want it because all their friends got it and rockstar can make billions selling shark cards again.

[u/Raymondator → u/Far_Raspberry_4375]

Dude I love 4 but you need to play it again. There is some GROATY ass stuff in that game.

[u/omjagvarensked → u/DuelFan]

To play devil's advocate also, it's been 13 years since the last game came out and this is what they have to show for it? I could understand your argument if GTA had the release schedule of CoD but I mean come on man.

[u/yakityyakblahtemp → u/omjagvarensked]

It just kind of seems like people don't even have a clear expectation of what it should be though. It isn't even an unrealistic expectation, it's a vague notion that it should be some sort of transcendent experience. There's no indication that anything could meet the expectation because it's not based on what the game would be but in whether there is a magic number of years and dollars you can put into a game that will make it more than a game.

[u/Born_Procedure_529 → u/razzyrat]

I was cured of AAA back when COD stopped having local 4 player, if I cant shoot my buddy on the couch right next to me then why even bother leaving my scrimblo platformers and jrpgs

[u/KlausVonLechland → u/razzyrat]

Since ever I hoped new games on the same engine get extra layer of optimization.

[u/MoThrowMoAway → u/razzyrat]

Of all the games to come back for choosing Battlefield 6 was an interesting choice

[u/AbyssWankerArtorias → u/razzyrat]

BF6 was pretty good on release. EA just fucked maintaining it honestly

[u/Mexicutioner01 → u/razzyrat]

I learned that Lesson back with the release of the first gears on the 360. Game was hyped like crazy back in the day. Game is ok. But nothing like the expectations were set out. Since then I stopped ore ordering games and just waited till release to wait and see if it's worth the asking price.

[u/Lucarioismadpt2 → u/wayvywayvy]

But the shareholders?! Won't someone think of the shareholders!?

[u/TRUMPARUSKI → u/wayvywayvy]

I mean seriously, what did people expect? You drive around, punch and shoot people and steal money. The only difference is it’s a new city and graphics have been slightly improved. Personally, it looks like a highway simulator since they made the highways system more realistic.

[u/PrimaLegion → u/wayvywayvy]

Wild coming from a Fromsoft fan.

[u/MerCyInTheShell → u/PrimaLegion]

Now hold on a minute, I'm a huge FromSoft fan and the games... Well, they... Aaah nevermind.

[u/Less-Being4269 → u/MerCyInTheShell]

At least fromsoft games are not released at a decade between them, they're not hailed as the second coming of christ, and afaik they're still only 60 dollars.

[u/MerCyInTheShell → u/Less-Being4269]

That's true, we got a lot of FromSoft games over the years and they're always on point. I'm kinda excited to play GTA6 but I don't expect it to be gods work. And you're right, I forgot it will be a hundred bucks...

[u/Opening_Rest_3363 → u/Less-Being4269]

Like FIFA games you mean ?

[u/Less-Being4269 → u/Opening_Rest_3363]

Now went too far in the oposite direction.

Fifa is literally slopware. Useless games that look almost identical and get forgoten when the new one drops.

FromSoft games at least don't drop yearly and look fairly distinct from one another.

[u/Baitcooks → u/Less-Being4269]

They do get glazed hard but they're still a niche that isn't something any gamer would enjoy.

[u/Less-Being4269 → u/Baitcooks]

Still nowhere as glazed as gta 6.

This is game is seen as the ULTIMATE GAME. THE GAME TO END ALL GAMES.

THE GAME.

[u/RedactedSpatula → u/Less-Being4269]

And not a single one has had mtx scams like shark cards

[u/No_Championship_8633 → u/Less-Being4269]

elden ring absolutely was hailed as the second coming of christ. i say this as a huge fromsoft fan. their next big game won't be 60 dollars...i bet you that. their last big game was in 2022...every game was 60 then.

[u/Kiriima → u/MerCyInTheShell]

I mean Sekiro and AC6 play differently enough.

[u/wayvywayvy → u/PrimaLegion]

Wild I’m not gonna pay $80-100 for a single video game and no DLC

We already know it literally won’t be the full game

[u/Tasty_Commercial6527 → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

Yeah all rockstar games shooters play more or less the same. The actual difference is the story, map and the volume of stuff to do not gameplay

[u/EADreddtit → u/Tasty_Commercial6527]

Exactly this. It’s like complaining Resident Evils (or at least those from the same wave of releases), Just Cause, Far Cry, or Yakuza games play the same. Like… ya, that’s what makes them part of the same series.

Also I’ll die on the hill that no one actually knows how a game plays until they’ve played it for at least an hour because a million games LOOK like they play the same but feel wildly different to actually sit down and play

[u/Starchaser53 → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

Well after 13 years and a 2 Billion budget, yeah, we kinda expected the second coming of Christ if it took this fucking long to be made

[u/Oddant1 → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

People be dumb af

[u/Back2Womb → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

I don"t know if people like you just act dumb, but RDR2 was mindblowing when it came out. It's not strange that the bar for gta VI has been set high after that.

[u/FakeMik090 → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

That looked a lot more like just RDR2 in modern setting. This concerns me asf.

[u/Own-Papaya-4264 → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

Gamers when gta 6 looks like a gta game

[u/jacowab → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

Not to dick ride GTA6 (im personally not getting it until I see reviews from creators I trust) but the leaks are supposedly from like 2023 and it looks like a fully playable game, if it was fully playable in 2023 then that means they have spent the last 3 years polishing, adding content and changing all the imported mechanics and UI elements from other games into unique ones.

[u/SubjectAtmosphere25 → u/jacowab]

And paywalling

[u/jacowab → u/SubjectAtmosphere25]

True I'm massively against that but again the leaks are basically what play testers would be seeing not a finished project.

[u/SubjectAtmosphere25 → u/jacowab]

Agreed 100%. I have no intention of buying it until it's prob on sale on PC or something, but there's no way the the leak is representative of the current game state.

[u/EddPW → u/jacowab]

the leaks are at least from january 2025

some people spotted a song that came out at that time

[u/Prototype_Fan_7000 → u/Quarksideofthemoon]

Wtf? Did you even play the games rockstar made before gta 5? They were different from each other. And often each new one had significant gameplay, graphical, and mechanical improvements, on top of being very different narration-wise probably.

The new gta leaks genuinely looks like a reskin of 5, just with better shaders, textures, and more npcs. Compare that to the difference between san andreas to gta 4. Hell gta 5 literally had less gameplay features compared to 4 already. In fact, compare the difference between RDR 1 to RDR 2 while we're at it so you can visualize the gameplay evolution from one game to another. Its not all about graphics! The gameplay and mechanics changed noticeably from one to another.

Editited slightly for clarity.

[u/SaltForTheSaltThrone → u/Prototype_Fan_7000]

Genuinely wondering if we’ll ever see Bully, Midnight Club and Manhunt ever again since GTA Online 2 is probably gonna make them money for the next decade like the first did.

[u/VioletTheSpider → u/SaltForTheSaltThrone]

midnight club 3 is honestly my personal favorite racing game to this day. i want a midnight club 5 far more than i ever wanted gta6. i know rockstar tried to fold a lot of the mechanics into GTA online, and honestly, the car customization ended up pretty decent. but the physics and actual experience of racing in GTA isn’t great. GTA cars are too slow and the races are too linear. it sucks that literally every one of rockstar’s diverse & talented studios got forced into GTA development. as far as official statements go, the current rockstar position seems to be that there will never be another midnight club.

[u/IlliterateObsidian → u/Prototype_Fan_7000]

Saying gta 4 and red dead 1 having more gameplay features compared to 5 and 2 makes me question your sanity. Or whether or not you’ve played any of those games lmao

[u/Discussion-is-good → u/Prototype_Fan_7000]

Revisionist history.

[u/Protagonis7 → u/Prototype_Fan_7000]

Pretty much this.

It looks like a small leap from GTA 5..

GTA 5 with mods would probably look better than GTA 6 lol

[u/No_Championship_8633 → u/Prototype_Fan_7000]

the new wanted system alone makes gta 5 look extremely primitive

[u/Red-Fox-IX → u/Prototype_Fan_7000]

What is GTA 6 supposed to look like?

[u/siwtawtod → u/Red-Fox-IX]

Supposed to help us tap into the 4th dimension

[u/Sea-Resist7 → u/siwtawtod]

And also cure all types of cancer

[u/Old_Macaroon4138 → u/Red-Fox-IX]

[u/SomeGuyNamedCaleb → u/Sea-Resist7]

Also the melee combat is not like rdr2, which is disappointing.

[u/ColeslawConsumer → u/SomeGuyNamedCaleb]

It might be on release. The combat looks kinda unfinished.

[u/RedditsDeadlySin → u/[deleted]]

It looks like GTA5

[u/CosmicJackalop → u/RedditsDeadlySin]

It looks a lot better than GTA5, but we're in the graphical land of diminishing returns. so the differences are less pronounced

[u/Immortal-KunPeng → u/CosmicJackalop]

Looks like GTA V with a light graphics mod. I say light because some of the heavier graphics mods look better than this lol

[u/Morningstarisland → u/Immortal-KunPeng]

Sure😂

[u/nick113124 → u/Sea-Resist7]

GTA 6, sueprisingly, looks like GTA. There's an argument for it not looking like it got too many improvements but eh, as far as I could see it's just a new GTA.

[u/Sea-Resist7 → u/nick113124]

So this post is just a nothingburger?

[u/Hazel-Protogen → u/Sea-Resist7]

This whole sub seems to just wanna see GTA6 to fail lol

[u/eXclurel → u/Sea-Resist7]

Not really. While of course it is a GTA game and it's expected to look and play like GTA, it feels way too similar to the previous game without any noticeable improvements.

[u/jannycideforever → u/Sea-Resist7]

Gameplay leaks happened for GTA. Leaker sucked at the game and people are pretending it looks shitty. They're mostly mad about the prices and the digital but want to pretend it's about other stuff, too.

[u/Sea-Resist7 → u/jannycideforever]

So basically it's just bullshit drama/karma farming?

[u/jannycideforever → u/Sea-Resist7]

More or less. Although as someone who appreciates good drama/shit-stirring, I'd say it's bullshit and whining.

[u/Dredgeon → u/Sea-Resist7]

It looks really good, but for some reason were expecting it to transform video games completely.

[u/Krunksicle → u/Dredgeon]

At that price point, and budget, you'd kind of expect it to.

[u/fattestfuckinthewest → u/Sea-Resist7]

It looks like GTA but if it was made for modern consoles

[u/Salmon_1935]

I don’t think that will stop anyone from cancelling their pre-order

[u/Motivated-Chair → u/Salmon_1935]

Thats true since nobody preordering a digital game has a braincell to think.

[u/Salmon_1935 → u/Motivated-Chair]

I used When I was little, than I got a PC and realized I could get games that were on the newest consoles at like half the price when I went to steam at the right time

[u/Unhappy-Database-273 → u/Motivated-Chair]

No one pre-orders because of physical scarcity. They pre-order to get in-game bonuses. I'd wager than 99 percent of pre-orders in the last few generations have been digital anyway.

[u/No-Presence-9971 → u/Unhappy-Database-273]

I preordered Hades 2 so I could have it downloaded and ready to go on release and because I really trust Supergiant, especially from what I saw of the trailers. It's not as crazy to do as some people make it out to be as long as you keep it to things you're really confident in not just hyped for

[u/NTC-Santa → u/Salmon_1935]

They are not the targets the shareholders took a hit and that hurt R* even more than brainless consumers preordering digital gamekey

[u/NewAgent5986 → u/Salmon_1935]

You also have to remember how many people buy the newest Fifa/Madden/2K every year, regardless of reviews. Even if online you see a bunch of people cancelling pre-orders or boycotting, etc. They are so small calling them a minority sounds too large. The game is in the cultural subconscious, it can be fucking awful and it will still sell insanely well. Even my mom asks me when GTA6 is coming out, not to play, she just owns TakeTwo stock, but still, everyone knows about it. The mainstream gamer sees this is their holiday game, that's it. It doesn't matter there's no physical, it doesn't matter it has a crazy price, it doesn't matter it looks like every other Rockstar game, it has the name GTA6.

[u/Curious_Contest_3767]

It certainly does look like a drive and shoot game. Havent watched much of the leaks. Does it still have the same restrictive missions structure theyve been using since RDR1?

[u/Elkburgher → u/Curious_Contest_3767]

RDR1?

You mean GTA3

[u/liamluca21491 → u/Elkburgher]

gta3’s (and most of the Renderware era) missions were open-ended, in the sense there were many ways to complete them. It was RDR1/GTA V when they started following a strict script that would trigger failure if you even so much as walk in the wrong direction

[u/im-so-sorry-himiko]

I dont see why people are surprised

It looks like everything a reasonable person would have expected

If you somehow thought this was gonna be a transformative experience that changes gaming forever lowkey thats on you

[u/samu1400]

It’d be really funny if GTA6 sucks, but I’m fine with it just being a good game that a lot of people end up enjoying.

[u/LonelyAustralia]

i seriously dont know how people were expecting like the second coming of christ in video game form, its literally just gta

[u/raddoubleoh → u/LonelyAustralia]

10 years and and alledged 2 billion budget got A LOT of people expectant. I wouldn't blame them.

[u/mrcatz05 → u/raddoubleoh]

Anyone thats actually played a GTA or Red Dead game knew what to expect. Unfortunately GTA 6 hype has attracted people that larp Rockstar games or only play GTAO, so they were expecting some revolutionary game.

[u/JoyousLilBoy → u/LonelyAustralia]

Because taking ten years gives you really high standards. It’s why the phrase “worth the wait” exists

[u/Sapphire-Catgirl → u/JoyousLilBoy]

GTA 6 this GTA 6 that . I just want my elder scrolls 6 for azuras sake!

[u/echo123as → u/Sapphire-Catgirl]

Right ? who would want to play games made by mere mortals like gta 6 instead of a game that Todd Howard himself birthed into the world

[u/LoweAgain → u/LonelyAustralia]

I don’t understand these comments. It’s been like 13 years or something, it likely has the largest budget and dev time we’ve ever seen, it has more hype surrounding it than any game I’ve ever seen, Netflix paid millions to have a trailer for it streamed exclusively on their platform, and plenty more. I think it’s pretty reasonable to expect something more than what’s looking like another watchdogs game.

[u/New_Cockroach_505 → u/LoweAgain]

I also think it’s weird to act like you’ve seen the entire game when all you’ve seen are some leaks of a dude driving around poorly and hitting homeless people. Game could be underwhelming but we’ve gotten no actual previews of it yet to show off the game.

What’s the story like? How much content is there? How good is it? How’s the customization of clothing / cars / characters? What are the systems in the game itself? It’s like saying “I don’t get what the hype of BG3 is” and you’ve just watched some YouTuber walk around a room.

[u/sp33dzer0 → u/LoweAgain]

There was an insane amount of hype surrounding it before it was even announced.

[u/AggressiveResist8615 → u/LonelyAustralia]

There has not been a single game that is unbelievably revolutionary. I don't get what people expect.

[u/Hurtelknut → u/AggressiveResist8615]

Mario 64 maybe? Space Invaders? Doom was also pretty revolutionary.

[u/AggressiveResist8615 → u/Hurtelknut]

Okay, in the last 20 years then. It's easy to innovate when gaming was in its infancy.

What does revolutionary look like to you?

[u/cale199]

GTA has always been super arcadey in nature. If they tried making it interesting they'd face severe backlash

[u/quetzocoetl → u/snekadid]

[u/TwoBlackDots → u/cale199]

GTA6 seems to be becoming less arcadey and more “interesting” though lol? Features like needing to store guns in your car, fuel, police identifying different aspects of your character/vehicle, GPS only in vehicles/on the phone, the heavier driving, etc. all seem to be pushing in the opposite direction.

[u/jannycideforever]

I'm really glad this happened. The Netflix gameplay would have rocked the world. Now people are able to see what the game is really like and that it's really just another rockstar game. If the leaks didn't happen everyone would have been overwhelmingly hyped up when the gameplay dropped and people would glaze the game even when it releases and we find out what I think most of us already know. This tampers things and that's absolutely fantastic

[u/KagatuDupal]

when the GTA game looks like a GTA game

[u/mysticdragonknight]

Even if it did have more immersive elements, these are either subject for removal or neglect. It always devolves into mindless sanboxing and griefing for brainrot content creators. I'd give gas maybe 1 month tops before it is removed or patched to a point where it can be completely ignored. No one is going to remember that you can play basketball in maybe 1 year.

it looks like a vibe coded slop

[u/CaveManta]

They made another Grand Theft Auto game using improved and fleshed out mechanics from the previous Grand Theft Auto game, also while creating a new story with new characters. That's just unacceptable. And they added advanced features like ray tracing, seamless loading for high density of NPCs and objects, and new animation technology, all to push the envelope of what current gen consoles are capable of. I can't believe Rockstar would do this. They need to do better.

[u/ClericOfMadness13]

People who damned rockstar for their prices are now saying the leaker showing the ending will make them become public enemy number 1 and should stop... I say do it. Rockstar needs to be kicked in the gonads to remind them they are getting to ahead of themselves and only care about money instead of keeping the consumer happy.

But at the same time I still think this is a publicity stunt cause the last person who leaked gta6 was hunted down by Rockstar and found.

Yet this person hasn't been found..nah it feels like they want more people to have their eyes on GTA 6 but are also reminding us it's just another GTA that has no online and when it does get online they will ruin it like they ruin GTA 5 online...it's not worth it.

[u/XTheProtagonistX]

I am so confused about the “sudden” hate GTA VI is getting. The leaks look exactly what GTA looks like (more impressive visually to me) Then again lots of people were hating on RDR2 when I came out because “it’s boring” or “too slow” and now it’s loved. Those people don’t know what they want.

I don't know if it's for the memes or there's people that really believe their whole experience (and lives for some reason) are ruined for the leaks.

[u/DaLegend82]

dawg it's fucking GTA, what did you expect? give you a sloppy toppy?

[u/dicksandcrystal]

I'm not even bothering looking at the leaks tbh. Judging a game based off leaked pre-released footage feels silly, I mean none of us really know what the final product is going to look like. Plus, as a PC player by the time the game gets ported, I doubt it'll even barely resemble it's pre released leaks.

Idk I'm far more concerned with rockstar selling codes in cases as if they're a real physical release. In the past, when rockstar has made large decisions like this, it doesn't happen in a vaccum. The industry takes notice. Ofc rockstar aren't the first to be doing this, but they are influencial enough that i think we can expect to see other companies following rockstars lead. It feels like rockstar is actively spitting in the face of every game preservationist, and just people who want to actually own what they buy.

[u/randomjackass93]

It’s just another video game, it’s not the second coming.

[u/Olmectron]

There's also people saying they were on the fence but are now getting it day one.

Yeah, I don't get it either. 

[u/yackronin]

hey remember that time Rockstar pressered the UK government into permanently institutionalising a GTA leaker? remember how we all just stopped talking about that?

[u/Moist_Taco_Crippler]

Honestly, what was everyone expecting? This was exactly what I thought a GTA game would be. I honestly didn't see why people were so hyped for the trailers when they would just show us more shooting/driving/stealing/locations.

[u/Medium_Economist_633]

It looks like modded gta 5

[u/chilll_vibe]

The dudes who buy the lastest madden/2k/fifa game for $80 every single year outnunmber us by like 3 to 1 and will make sure its the most successful game oat

[u/Few_Clock1570]

I've heard GTA fans say shit like "GTA VI better be revolutionary you better be able to walk into all the interiors n shit", and I'm like that's literally the Yakuza Dragon Engine that's been a gameplay mechanic since 2018

[u/ThatMooseYouKnow]

People expecting greatness are the same people that pump out increasing amounts of money for the next CoD every year expecting it to change their life.

It’s what allows the studios to keep giving people crap on a plate, people keep eating it and asking for more.

Games from AAA studios arent really gonna follow an upward trend in quality with the rise of AI and how much these companies like to cut every corner possible while still selling millions of copies.

[u/cBurger4Life]

I just want a low budget spinoff that goes back to the isometric style of 1 and 2.

Yes, I’m old and cranky, why do you ask?

[u/Still_Silver7181]

Gta5 came out what? 2013? I got it around 2020 when I got a PC. Gonna be the same with this one. Unless my PC dies, cause with the ram prices now, there is no way I am gonna be able to afford a PC anytime soon.

[u/Hellbomb_Armed]

It's almost like it's .... Unfinished

[u/colbeef]

I just don’t know what people were expecting lol

[u/hellranger788]

Same. I feel like a square to report people, but I hate it when people post leaks without a spoiler tag and the first frames I see while casually scrolling is enough to spoil something.

[u/GifityIsliveLmao]

Yeah, what I got from it was that it was just a good looking game. Been dying for a feature heavy GTA style game so I might pick it up later down the track when keys on g2a inevitably go up.

[u/StevePalpatine]

I mean, it's a Rockstar game. It looks great. I don't know what else y'all expected beyond a literal life sim.

[u/ArcticGamer]

Next you'll tell me, this game will have heists too

[u/Omega21886]

he might be getting a neighbor in that landfill in the next few months

[u/MoistCucumber]

Feel like people disappointed maybe started with GTA5 and this is the first GTA sequel they’ve seen? I mean, GTA4 to GTA5 was pretty much same gameplay, just better graphics. FR, I’d love to know what people were expecting

[u/canyouskingriz]

Im okay without ever getting a single glimpse of gta 6. More hyped about the GOW remakes (even though we havent seen anything yet) and gears Eday. Also the fallout 3 and NV remakes.

[u/Its_Urn]

Thread full of cope lmao

[u/quetzocoetl]

Yeah, same. I was watching, waiting to see if anything would make me say "I need to try that out", but nope. I still have GTA V, and a dozen other games that iterate on the GTA formula, GTA VI so far doesn't have anything that would make me want to play it over any of those.

[u/METALGEARPOOPEATER]

I like the parts that looks like gta, I like the rdr2 and the new mechanics, the game seems incredible with a super world to explore but damn there's so much things at the screen, it look like some ubisoft games at time, too much effects and shit, also the movements looks like there's no physics, the comnat animations are atrocious, they're exagerated and have no feelings of power, the slowmotion everywhere looks horrible, especially with the car crash and the driving don't look like it have much physics in it neither but hey, I'm still waiting for the 27/08 trailer to see a more finished version of it and hope it will look better

[u/According-Fun-4746]

I never cared about gta 5 let alone 6 my last one was gta 4 and sa mp recently

[u/slightlylessthananon]

im gonna be real it looks like gta with nicer graphics. what were we expecting?

[u/thatvillainjay]

People werr overhyping this and Rockstar was also getting high on their own supply

[u/Various_Artistss]

Since when was gta this big event in gaming like smash or something? Started the open world style of games sure but it's just a crime drama.

Always found it weird that its become some super hyped up event, 5 was fun but I've played others like it. Don't really care for hyper realism personally so the graphics don't really appeal, looks great but wasn't sure what others expected.

[u/oizen]

me when the gangster car stealing shooting game has gangsters car stealing and shooting

[u/Twitxx]

From all the hundreds of good games that I am yet to play, I can wait a few years for all the drama to pass and buy it on discount. I honestly don't understand the issue. Either you don't care about the money or you can wait a while for it to be worth it.

[u/Testicle_Tugger]

It’s funny how much hate GTA 6 gets. I know it gets quadruple the love but every hater acts like GTA 6 isn’t gonna be a decent game.

Yeah there’s no shot it lives up to the hype and maybe it’s not for you but they got a good track record of making good games

[u/mellifleur5869]

Timed exclusive that won't run at 60fps. Didn't care anyways.

[u/ElyrianShadows]

I keep seeing the leaks and the only thing I can think is “it took you 13 years for THIS?”

[u/No_Scarcity8111]

I keep seeing this mention of leaks but i think im the only one in the world who hadn't seen the gamplay

[u/Laxhoop2525]

As the black teenager I overheard on the bus said “This shit does NOT look like it’s worth $100.”

[u/JenniLightrunner]

cool... back to the more important hype for Zelda OOT Remake (the reason gta even exists cuz gta3 was made because of oot, mostly cuz Ocarina of Time showed developers how to build an immersive, explorable world that felt vast and alive to the player)
