I mean how can you say it's "worn off" when it's sold 110 million copies, third highest selling game of all time and constantly in the top sale charts 6 years running?

GTA 6 will be fucking glorious, wont it?
- Thread starter SeriousGoku
- Start date
Rockstar shall not be constrained by your notions of "good controls," you will L2 R2 L2 R2 L2 R2 until the cows come home and you will clumsily trundle around while mashing a button to sprint and you will like it, you scum.
I think things will start to cross the barrier of weird, Because it will seem to real, especially if it's next gen only.
Even if it has RDR2s realism, npc interaction and random events, all that in a modern city will be pretty mind blowing.
With modern tech, budget, time, talent and dev size they will be able to evolve the open world genre by making the subtle things possible, things like a steamy back alley with some crazy homeless ranting and raving with realistic facial and body animation.
We have so far to go in just how people move and behave, to me this is far more important then just improving visuals, although better visuals will help.
If you just take any ordinary encounter out of everyday life video games are very poor Imitations of them.

I agree, I think GTA 6 will completely bomb, it won't even sell 1 million copies if they don't completely change there terrible controls. Rockstar is dead
I never thought I'd say this ever in my life, but I just can't get excited for RDR or GTA anymore. I think the problem is that the games have become TOO realistic.
Like, I used to love mowing down groups of people in Vice City with a minigun and just cause general mayhem. But I had a moment while playing GTA V where I thought of doing the same thing, and I just...can't. The denizens of Rockstar's digital world are too real for me to just want to kill them for no reason.
Same with RDR 2, but my problem with that game is even bigger. They actively give you a system where you can be nice to people or be a fucking dick right from the jump. So I was a good cowboy when I played. And yet, almost every cutscene made Arthur to out to be a violent animal. OK, that's fine. Don't give me that choice when playing the game then? And I'm a firm believer that a game can be "too big". I'm at a point in my life where I can dedicate a few hours a week to game, so beating RDR 2 took me several months (basically doing a mission a day). By the middle of the epilogue, I was begging for the story to wrap it the fuck up already.
So I think I'm done. Which is liberating since the hype trains for these games start early and last a long time before the release dates. Don't get me wrong, I find the graphics and worlds they are building to be very impressive. But I had way more fun with Saint's Row 2 and 3, and those games had a fraction of the resources sunk into them.
Also, multiplayer is a fine optional feature, but developers/publishers are killing some of my favorite franchises as resources get re-directed away from single player.

I think the left trigger to interact with npcs is good, but I agree movement and cover needs to be more slick then RDR2. They just need to improve apon gta5s movement.
Before RDR2 came out there was a ton of concern trolling about how the single player would get fucked. Same thing will happen for GTA 6 despite V and RDR2 having meaty single players and content.
what is with this weird revisionism of GTA V on here, the game is still a landmark title for the industry
It's almost like people are desperate to be different from the majority regarding R*s games, it is rather odd for a forum the size of era that so many hate gta and rdr2
I expect the world building to be great. Unfortunately I expect the opposite of the game play based on the history of the previous GTA games.
We're probably a good few years away still, right?
I imagine GTA6 will be teased in like 2 years and then released in 5+ years.
Either way, I love me some Rockstar goodness and will def play the shit outta it.

I guess because he already made his mind up
I kneel, I am a peon. I must press three buttons to do so, and feel irritated the whole time.
Oh lord. Yes, that's what Static was suggesting.
It is possible that R* games can be phenomenally well received and yet still need improving.
i think it's obvious though.
Rockstar is probably the most famous developer outside of Nintendo. There games are AAA of the AAA gaming, giant mega blockbuster type games that are cherished my millions. It's no wonder a lot of people go against the grain when it comes to them
developers like Naughty Dog and CDPR are big studios as well, but they don't have the Rockstar level brand power. So they are still seen as having this level of "auteurship" to them. Essentially more "artsy". Rockstar is this juggernaut that people don't know how to deal with.
You don't have to be a fan of them, but that doesn't mean the level of snarky and weird takes on them are not going to be challenged
Nah, you can, I suppose, enjoy the narrative structure in BOTW. But it's without question less emphasized than it has been in previous LoZ games and certainly less emphasized than it is in pretty much every R* game.
Breaking up the story presentation in R* games would be the worst thing they could do lol. Why do you think their games review so well if you don't think it's because of the gameplay?
Do you think TLOUII should present its levels and story beats in a non linear fashion? Should you be able to tackle any mission at any point in time?
Can't wait to have to wash my car daily and Armor-All the tires, get the oil changed on a regular basis all in real time.
Seriously, I hope they keep with the spirit of GTA5, a 6 year old game that is a constantly in top 10 game for all 6 years is just crazy...

That's truly odd behaviour you described.
Ever since GTA1 I loved R*s games, they are best devs.
I think a ms or Sony 1st party should do a gta style game, there is definitely a market for it, and it could be the size of vice City and still be very good and sell very well.
like literally the weirdest take is the idea R* is giving up on single player gaming because of the massive success of GTAO
people said RDR 2 single player was going to be short handed, and people are already saying it for GTA 6
Yeah. I enjoyed about everything in GTAV except the sloppy story (and Online implementation as an aside).
i do worry they get too obsessed with realism and micro management systems that they forget to make something fun to play. like, i don't want to slowly die just because i didn't put on winter clothes and take an oxygen tank with me when i climb a mountain (if there is one) or have to bathe and slowly wash each limb. or polish my guns if i want to maintain functionality. like, there's a point where stuff like that feels like a bunch of pointless busywork, and RDR2 crossed that line for me
There we go.
I'll buy it without remorse. Some of you guys must have a hard time finding something you enjoy produced with honest labor.
Maybe check your shoes and phone as well?
And honestly i get it, shit is not cool and people should talk about it. But can this guy just make his thread and be excited about something for once? Fucking hell
why are many people offended by Grand Theft Auto Online. Like it doesn't effect the campaigns of these games.
So odd
So odd
No one bought The Lost and Dammed or The Ballad of Gay Tony which were incredible single player expansions. Undead Nightmare was amazing as well, but no one bought it
so whining about R* focus on multiplayer now a days is odd. They weren't making any money off SP DLC's

It'll probably be glorious. I still think we are a ways out from it coming. If it does come I suspect it to be designed for current consoles and ported later.
I still want more SP adventures though. With Sleeping Dogs 2 dead and GTAVI probably a ways off, it's gonna be a long wait for something similar

Can't wait to see what they can do with native 4K, 16GB+, 100GB discs, 8 cores @3GHz+, 8-10TFs and SSDs. Hoping 2021 but who am I kidding, it will be 2022 for GTa6 and 2025 for RDR3 if we're lucky lol
Probably going to wait on the PC release this time. Got burned so hard on RDR2 controls.
I truly don't get it. These armchair analyst who truly know the industry lmao
Sorry guys that im getting so super defensive of Rockstar. I know its in your right to not be fans of them, and I have to learn that, So I'm sorry.
but some of these takes in here man, It's just ahistorical.. I don't know

I was dissapointed by the campaign in GTA 5, but the online reached the level they always wanted, there truly is something for almost everyone going on online. So im hyped for the next level of online, not so much for the campaign. And I played through all campaigns since gta 3.
Hopefully they finally get a female protagonist and create a different story.
