The state of Grand Theft Auto in 2022

Zoomers are a plague.

 

[Cod of War]

Well, I guess this is how GTA ends not with a bang but with a Zoom.

 

[Snekposter]

Honestly, the Cyberpunk music fits basically all overly glitchy games that have massive hype surrounding them.

Yeah, but... its also genuinely good. Perhaps the sole bright spot in all of that benighted, blighted game.

 

[The Last Stand]

He has never paid much attention to the QA side of things. His job is to maximize profits, maximize algorithms, and encourage addiction-like behavior. It's really not that different from any evil SV tech company.

"Definitive edition" is now a meme.

 

[Grave Ghost]

Also fuck the OG police, I'm convinced they were that bloodthirsty because they made sure you didn't break the technical limitations of the game on PS3/Xbox.

I mean I remember on the 360 version I was able to survive with a 5 star for so long once that the wanted system just reset and when I tried to do it again on PC I just stayed on that 5 star.

 

[The Last Stand]

Tell me if this makes sense. I feel GTA V lacks depth with its plot which affects its characters. Intentional or not, Los Santos caters to people with a low attention span. Contrast that with IV, where each story thread has detail where you miss it the first time.

Knowing Rockstar, I bet by "well underway", they mean "It'll be out before the end of the millennium".

'Have faith Arthur, we just need some more money!'

Is anyone sensible really that surprised? I wish they made an announcement a year ago.

It's gonna suck either way.

 

[The Last Stand]

It's gonna suck either way.

I'm guessing R* is aware they're reaching a limit with GTA V and decided to start fresh with a new entry NOW.

Doesn't matter. Has none of the people that made Grand Theft Auto what it was.

It's gonna suck.

 

[Milwaukee Macho Man]

I'm guessing R* is aware they're reaching a limit with GTA V and decided to start fresh with a new entry NOW.

I'm guessing they hit an all time low of Shark Card sales with the release of The Contract.

If they make a new installment of GTA before 2024, it will literally make the new Saints Row game look like they’re to outdo them with parodies of “wokeness”.

Which is really not something one should be expecting with a GTA game in current day.

it's likely because someone pointed out that the wait for GTA VI has not only eclipsed the gap between GTA IV and V, they are about to eclipse the gap between San Andreas and V come August.

Even though we all knew they've most likely been working on it, a year ago I would have been excited (maybe even farther back than that). Now I'm just numb

 

[Long Tongue Silver]

Honestly, I'm scared of how absolutely pozzed the next GTA game will inevitably be.

 

[OJ Simpson]

I'm not excited at all. I'm sure they'll attempt to tow the line between satire and social commentary and end up getting a little too heavy-handed with their personal politics, which will inevitably be on the level of nuance of a fucking college freshman.

All we can do is wait and see. But my faith in R* is currently non-existent. I'm black-pilled when it comes to gaming.

And I bet a strong wahmen will play the most prominent role any female GTA character has ever played.

I'm considered about the quality of the writing. IV was the last mainline GTA with an engaging, original story. V was all over the place with little consistency. Hell, who is to say they'll half ass the single player and focus on the online component?

Even though we all knew they've most likely been working on it, a year ago I would have been excited (maybe even farther back than that). Now I'm just numb

I blame all the clickbait surrounding GTA 6. You know every game news outlet and YouTuber will be talking about that official announcement.

Everybody knows R* policy on game making has changed thanks to GTA Online. It's all about revenue and player engagement now. A shell of its former self.

 

[I.B. Niggin]

While it strong armed the fuck out of you with how to complete missions, I think RDR2 is sadly going to be Rockstar's swan song.

GTAVI is going to somehow be an even worse GTAV, even if they follow through on the Vice City location and the island game play from Scarface.
