I have very little hype for new rockstar games considering I know right now it’s not going to have story dlc and it’s going to be simply a vessel to get people into the online mode to spend buckets of cash on cards.
GTA IV had the radio crackle right before receiving a phone call just like how GSM radio interference worked at the time.
GTA V had in the middle of a restricted part of the map a drain overflow which has runoff to a floor light that was shorting out as a result.
Rockstar’s commitment to detail in their open worlds is unlike anything else, and they can never release any DLC again or support a title after launch at all and turn it into a vessel for funneling to their online money maker all day long and I’ll still eagerly await whatever morsels of that single player vessel I can get my hands on.
Yeah, they want to funnel you to multiplayer…but I’m not gonna sit here and pretend the funnel itself isn’t great. People were saying all this about RDR2 and while I think it lacked in certain design choices, it was not lacking in content and attention to detail.
My biggest gripe with their greedy desires to push everyone into online was the death of the director mode.
I really, really wanted director mode for RDR2. And I’m going to really want it for GTA 6.
And I’m sure I’m not getting it for either as it directly competes with online.
My thoughts exactly. However, it excites me that Rockstar still managed to make RDR2, and it was a masterpiece. Even so, I never played “Online” MP mode, nor have I ever played GTA’s, and I hope they noticed, lol.
Yeah. RDR2 is absolutely a masterpiece. It’s why I’ll still consider buying Rockstar games, but not on launch. They don’t get day one buys from me :D
Yeah I have no hype considering what they did with gta online pay walling all but a few of the cars
GTA games are expensive to make. All that multiplayer bullshit subsidies the single player campaign. I was pretty satisfied with GTA 5 and GTA 4 and didn’t touch the multiplayer. is it a big deal if they continue that pattern?
??? What? How?
The game isn’t free – singleplayer or multiplayer(well it was free on Epic Games Store for that one week, but that was years into the game’s release).
It earned $800 million on release day and $1 billion in 3 days. I don’t think a lot of people would have bought Shark cards at that time.
Then there’s all the sales after the first 3 days, the release on PS4/Xbox One/PC, and then the re-release on PS5/Xbox Series.
This article claims they made ~$8 billion in revenue from GTA V as of Q1 FY23. I know games are expensive to make, but surely they don’t cost billions – to a point where their singleplayer campaign needs to be “subsidized”?
That said, it cost 300 million to makes and 5 years to develop. Getting a return in the billions after 10 years is expected, otherwise they might as well save all that time and energy, and massive financial risk, and just buy conservative ETFs with that 300 million and sit at the beach.
It is the single most profitable piece of media ever produced.
GTA V was supposed to have DLC and it was cancelled in favour of online. So those who don’t play online lost out whereas they traditionally wouldn’t have.
V was great and worth the spend but it’s 10 years later and we have a tweet for a sequel. So it’s justified to be disappointed in what we have been presented with and not be as excited.
I’m also afraid they’ll take it a bit to keep the younger crowds parents at bay.
