I can see it now.
So, Jason and Lucia are together, right? Lucia gets out of jail and then Jason and Lucia start robbing again. Pulling a Bonnie and Clyde thing robbing across Vice City and the surrounding areas. But, as a result of their robberies, something from either of their pasts comes back to bite them. Maybe Lucia has some connections to the cartels and is the reason why she got canned. Or Jason got her out by doing making a deal with someone he shouldn’t have. Either way, kinda like what happened with Michael in the last game, they’re forced to work with the cartels and corrupt cops. And, eventually, it gets to the point that they’ve become so infamous that either the cops are cartels have it out for them. But, they offer them a deal. To either Jason or Lucia. You wanna live? Kill the other. If you don’t, you’re both dead. That’s gives us multiple endings like GTA V. Either Lucia dies, Jason, or both.
If it’s anything like Bonnie and Clyde, the ending is not going to be fun.

But it turns out they fake their deaths and the camera pans to a small town in mexico: “15 years later…” where you play as their child and discover they’re both alive and well, but bored with their lives. They reminisce on the good old days of adventure before reading the mail and discovering a potential bank to rob. “One last heist, eh?” one says to the other before both of them smile and the screen cuts to black.

Oh I’m definitely keeping Lucia alive
Am I the only one who absolutely hates GTA?
It’s bland as fuck and somehow people go and fucking play the same shitty mechanic game for hundreds of hours for 13 years, not even mentioning the fact that they buy it 3 fucking times.
It’s not even out and I already absolutely hate this game and how everyone is hyping it to be next coming of Jesus when it’s going to be EXACTLY the same as the other ones with crappy storyline and a basic af gameplay
I’m sorry, but gta FIVE was bland as fuck. Gta3 was groundbreaking for the time because it was 3d, gtavc was actually incredible, but now looks like hot dogshit (sounds great though, and that va cast was insanely talented and well cast and written, chefs kiss), and gtasa while a great game and expansion on basically everything, was the beginning of it getting bland and formulaic.
And gta5 was like… The right direction after gta4, but felt really half assed.
That being said, I love this franchise and want it to do better. I just know that they likely won’t.
So don’t hate it, just criticize it for what’s really wrong with it. As a person who’s played since gta2, it’s immensely frustrating to see it degrade. Your complaints are valid.
Yeah that’s my point like… It’s an ok game, the story has always been very bland to me, very predictable and simple, I’d at least forgive that if the gameplay was always fun an exciting, but people do everything in their power to ignore it’s flaws and just say it’s perfect and overhype it like there’s nothing to improve.
Rockstar knew how to make game mechanics that made cars feel amazing to drive in Midnight club 3 and LA, and the ones in GTAV are crap, they all feel like driving on ice, they knew how to make good gunplay like Max Payne 3,and in GTAV is bland as fuck. That’s what I mean. They clearly know how to do good stuff but in the last 13 years they really haven’t innovated at ALL, and why would they? People are STILL wasting money on GTA Online 13 years later, and the same people will still buy GTA6 3-4 times in the next 10 years
Then why comment?
Because the game isn’t even out and the people are treating it like the next coming of Jesus.
Their games are “Fine”, but for some reason people just go absolutely nuts over the same bland mindless gameplay from 13 years ago.
Why are you here then?
Like I see posts about Anime all the time and that isn’t my thing, so you know what I do… I just pass on by and let people enjoy what they enjoy without trying to come off as superior or enlightened.
But, how else are you supposed to know that THEY’RE enlightened and superior, if they don’t loudly proclaim it at every given opportunity? Hmmmm?!
Pro tip, if your sentence ever begins with “am I the only one…” then just stop and completely reconsider how you want to present the point you want to make. Just make the point. Lose the fluff.
You aren’t the only one. Nobody is ever the only one.
You could’ve just said that it’s not your cup of tea. Seems like you have a grudge against it. Which is fine, but for people who enjoy the series, your comment can feel like an attack on their preference.
It isn’t my cup of tea, what bothers me is the EXTREME overhype. It’s not normal.
Literally EVERY social media I have has posts of people analyzing frame by frame of a stupid trailer, like… Wtf.
I get people being excited, but it’s a trailer, it’s not the next coming of Jesus
I liked vice city and San Andreas.
Since IV they have been striping features from the games (also IV had huge performance issues). And V is completely bland to me. I didn’t enjoy it. And I don’t expect much from VI. I expect the same shallowness as V with a different background.
If I’m wrong good from everyone. But I won’t get disappointed if it’s as boring a V.
Same. But I WILL be disappointed. I like the series too much, despite it being shit for so long. I want to play good games, and I know what Rockstar is really capable of. So if another big release by a core gaming studio comes out and it’s trash, that’ll suck.
Ok so we got a regular GTA story with humour, 2 main characters in relationship (maybe another playable one?) and hopefully a detailed open world to do side activities in. Looks good enough for me. Just make it at least as good as RDR2 and you have my money.
I don’t ever pre order but Rockstar is a different beast. I will be pre ordering on the PS5 and then purchasing on PC about 6 months later. Take my moneyyyyy!
The first thing i noticed is the awful amount of TAA/Upscaling artefacting. Apart from that it looks good i guess. I mean its GTA. It will probably be an enjoyable game. But still: Fuck Rockstar. Fuck Take2.
As long as they let you turn off the upscaling I won’t complain about it. Unfortunately there has been a trend as of late to force it on; the artifacting drives me nuts. It’s always harder to to see in youtube videos though, since they are compressed quite a bit compared to live play.
Biggest thing that concerns me was their focus on pushing one into multiplayer in V. I’m worried that is going to intensify since it made them so damn much money doing that last time.
Either way, game isn’t out for a year, and it isn’t out for PC for probably two years. So, just going to go back to enjoying my Breath of Fire IV playthrough I’m currently doing. :)
Yeah I hope the single player is solid and a decent length.
Why?
You mean aside from abandoning RDR Online, cancelling GTA V singleplayer DLC in favour of GTA Online shark cards, intentionally delaying the PC release of GTA V to maximise the number of people who would buy the game more than once because of FOMO, absolute dog shit support and punishing their community by crushing the modding community? I’m not sure.
I’m not sure what support you’re talking about, and I’ve never delved into mods for GTA V, but the rest are just sensible business decisions, at least up until now; we’ll see how the different modern dynamic between consoles and PC plays out this time, but I think it’s the last time they’ll do it. As with all these exclusivity deals that are quickly dying out, that PC version will come, and that’s when I’ll play it.
Sensible business decisions definitely make the best games.
I don’t know why you’re being nasty to me. I genuinely wasn’t sure why someone would have an issue with Rockstar. If they don’t want to make story DLC for GTA V, it’s much the same as Valve not making a Portal 3. I can just move on and play something else. Focusing on a console release first and foremost, especially for a project as ambitious as this, made a lot more sense in the past, and maybe was still common wisdom when the project got rolling. It will stop due to natural market forces. Speaking of natural market forces, it’s exactly why RDR2 Online would be abandoned: there weren’t enough people to care about it compared to its costs. Modding isn’t really my world, so I wouldn’t exactly be privy to those shenanigans, but that sucks.
I don’t think he’s being nasty to you. His frustration is with Rockstar for abandoning GTA to sell microtransactions instead of make content. A lot of people are mad at valve for not making Half-Life/Portal/Left4Dead 3 just like a lot of people are mad at Rockstar for taking 13 years to release a new GTA game.
Personally, I don’t think that’s worth getting mad over, especially not in this saturated market right now where there’s always something great to play. Valve worked on Half-Life, Portal, and Left 4 Dead many times since their last iterations, but you have to give creatives time to throw out what’s not working. And plenty of game developers I like work on plenty of stuff I’m not interested in. I just wait for them to come back around to the stuff I am interested in. In the case of live service stuff, it sucks, but Rockstar’s hardly unique there.
Sorry if I came across as nasty, my disdain is entirely with Rockstar and T2. After GTAIV, and the exceptional story and DLC we got many of us were excited to see what DLC was in store for GTAV. To have Rockstar to walk back the planned DLC in favour pushing shark cards and micro-transactions in GTA Online left many of us feeling pretty betrayed at the time.
Regarding the launch, GTAV originally came out on Xbox 360 and PS3 in September 2013, then on a new console generation in November 2014, and didn’t come to PC until April 2015. Many were doubtful that a company with the resources and talent available to Rockstar needed such a delay, and it stank of another tactic to maximise the number of people buying multiple copies.
Gotcha. No worries. I’m more disappointed that basically everyone in the industry stopped making crime stories except for Yakuza, but we’ve got two coming this year, at least, in MindsEye and Mafia: The Old Country.
It took them until this year to finally start addressing rampant cheating in GTAO PC.
The most profitable game in history, and they couldn’t muster a solution to the hacking/bullshit until now.
Did they finally do something about the modders on GTAV online? I used to play but ended up with a stalker that made the game unplayable for me because he would kick me anytime I got online, for weeks. I had to download one of the paid mod menus to stay hidden from him until I just didn’t feel like paying for that anymore and just gave up and stopped playing. It was extremely frustrating to say the least.
God I hope they don’t use temporal anti aliasing. Like trails in vc all over again.
That’s wild we got a gta 6 trailer before gta 6
Truly the darkest timeline
No PC no buy. Fuck your console exclusive bullshit I ain’t double dipping this time
I don’t think a lot of people are going to double dip this time. This game will sell consoles, but it’s not going to make up for the deficit the console market has compared to how many PS3s and Xbox 360s were out there in 2013.
I really hope this is true. The only thing that will stop Rockstar from the delayed PC release nonsense in the future is actually stopping the double dip.
I ended up with a PS4 just for Red Dead 2. But I still haven’t bought it on PC and have no plans to do so.
The thing is, the PS4 kind of made sense because I also wanted a Blu-Ray player. I still have it for that, so a PS5 would be an impossible sell to me. It’s like Rockstar tries to sell consoles but this time around is one of the worst ever console eras.
So you don’t have a 4k blu-ray player? Consoles still make sense for many people, despite the obvious market issues we have today.
No 4k TV either. I don’t really see the point.
Well, 4k is a great technology for gaming and cinema, highly recommended if you have the space.
I’m with them; my 1080p TV still gets the job done and looks great to me. Maybe I’d be more invested in cinema if cinema cared more about what I want. I can’t even walk into brick and mortar and buy a movie anymore, and it’s not like there’s a GOG for movies.
Yeah if you care about cinema you definely want a better resolution and considering to buy your UHD versions whenever available, but I could say the same for some modern videogames.
There’s a time and place for 4k. It is not all the time. But some things are treats with high resolution and pixels-per-fov of your vision. Also oled looks so, so good.
That being said, 1080p for older stuff looks perfectly fine, and I’d argue audio quality, audio stereo image, and accurate frequency spectrum resolution is game changing, and arguably more important.
RE: gog for movies: that is a fascinating idea. What would that look like, to you? I’m very curious.
My tv is 4k, but I exclusively watch 1080p movies and series on it. I’m not going to double my subscription costs just to get 4k streaming, and most piratable files are 1080p.
highly recommended if you have the space.
And the money. Especially if you game on PC.
That’s another reason consoles still make sense for many gamers.
PS. From a PC player
I’m watching things in 4K and playing in 1080p. It’s exactly four times the pixels, so it’s pixel-perfect scaling and it looks fine. (58" TV and the sofa is about 3 metres far, so a bit on the smallish side. I’m sure a 65" would look just as good.)
It’s coming to PC about a year later; chill the fuck out. You goldfish do this with every GTA release. It’s annoying as hell.
What is annoying as hell is Rockstar not getting with the times and acknowledging PC as a viable option existing in the gaming space.
Microsoft is pivoting towards it entirely and and Sony is leaning on it.
Again, it’s coming to PC. Every GTA game comes to PC eventually. Rockstar purposely waits 6+ months to announce the PC version, because they know people like you will double dip. It happens every single time, and you keep falling for it.
I’m not saying that Rockstar is in the right for doing it this way, but they keep doing it cause you keep forgetting that they do this every time. The downvotes prove it; none of y’all ever learn. That’s why I’m so annoyed.
people like you will buy it again
What part of “I’m not buying it twice this time” did you not understand?
It’s a double dipping technique.
First all players are hyped for GTA6, some even buying a console to experience it on launch day.
Then the PC release get’s out 1-2 years later and everyone with a capable rig know it will run better there and buy it again.Assuming it will be a 80€ game, they now made 160€ in revenue instead of 80.
That is fine, hopefully you get it on a discount as well.
That’s how I got GTA V On PC the second time… paid $20
I don’t even have a console unless they plan on releasing it on Switch 2… so yeah, it’s gonna be a longer wait and I’m okay with that.
Good gravy the first few seconds looked like live action. Hope Matt Berry is in this one
I don’t even care anymore.
I love GTAV and play Online almost everyday. But this bullshit about delays and more delays every year is just annoying as hell. How many years have they had to get this right?
I’m reminded of the quote “Don’t let perfect get in the way of good.” and I’m beginning to wonder if that’s what’s going on here? Are they delaying a good game because it’s not “perfect” or are they just so incompetent that they have to keep going back to “fix” things???
And watch, when it does come out it’ll be buggy as hell. Everyone will be asking “You’ve had all of this time. Why are there so many bugs?” and Rockstar will just shrug their shoulders all of the way to the bank.
Every time they delay the game my thought is “well, they are updating some technology that got obsolete due the delays”
Based on the dev video leaks, the maggat shitting will be intact.
I am so happy for the release of this game. It looks like the perfect summer title too
Apparently there is a lot more info about the game on the official site: https://www.rockstargames.com/VI
It’s not loading at the moment but it contains some screenshots, character info, and confirms certain locations that will appear.
The trailer looked gorgeous, possibly the most photorealistic game we’ve seen yet. I know it was probably recorded on a PS5 Pro, but the fact that it looks this good on console is wild. Still lame that it won’t release on PC at release.
It’s definitely the most photorealistic game of this scale. IMO. It’s looking to be quite the feat, and worth the development time/wait.
They really like showing Lucia’s ass in these trailers…
Probably the only model sculpted by hand, not generated by AI. /s
Seems to be all they had to show in this one.
Givin us what we want yipeeee
GTA VII when?
October 3. The one after the sun implodes.
Can’t wait to pick this up for $30 on PC 3 years after it’s released. Fuck $80 games and fuck double-dip releases that don’t release same-day on PC.
And it will still be full of bugs
There’s literally no reason in this day and age to not release on pc on day 1. Xb and ps market share is absolutely losing ground to pc at record time, there’s no reason anymore.
If they don’t pc release day 1, then I guess gta6 actually just comes out 2027.
I mean there is a reason, and that reason is they can get people to buy it twice.
It’s a shitty reason for consumers but a viable one for publishers nonetheless.
Unless you have no plans to play Online, the money you’ll spend on Shark Cards trying to catch up with established players will far exceed $80. That’s why I stopped playing GTA V Online—I got tired of grinding for cash, just to keep up with the unemployed people who dedicate their lives to one game (I refuse to spend money on microtransactions in any game). Either play at launch, or don’t bother with Online.
