because it sets the benchmark for what games can be in broadness of scope for the next two generations
you can be certain nothing will have more content, regardless of how much of it is disconnected and soulless, and with the last two entries you could also be reliably certain that nobody will have meaningfully superior physics or mechanics tech in about as long

Because it's the hecking big crime game. Where everyone just murders and runs people over but if you ever ask them they get all weird and pretend like they use it as an upstanding citizen simulator

This is kinda bordering on "Duke Nukem Forever" territory. It's been in dev for so long, there's no possible way it could come together into something good.

I have very low hopes and even less confidence. Goddamn imagine releasing this and it sells like shit, and then is in the public eye for less time than a fart in the wind then the consumers move on to consume the next thing. How very sobering.

In the only GTA game I played any significant portion of, which was IV, I didn't really go out of my way to kill random NPCs. The most enjoyable crime was being able to drive through red lights and drive on the wrong side of the road to avoid traffic.

if anyone ever expects you to work overtime for no compensation, shoot them.

It's actually kind of hard to say for sure but fanboys keep pushing the original dev table forward to make it seem like it was in dev hell less. But in all likelihood development began around 2016-17 when red dead 2 was gearing towards release

Normies will buy a PS5 to play it

I feel like video games are not really in the same spot they were when GTA5 came out. It was a totally different time as fucking everyone had an Xbox 360 or PS3 and they were cheap as fuck in 2013. I dunno if people will be that bothered to buy a PS5 or Xbox to play GTA6 as they are so expensive. The game will obviously sell ok but nowhere near as good as GTA5 did.
>>
>>738164673
Actually I feel like GTA6 is the only thing to sell consoles because there's not a single game that has as much normie backing as this game. AAA has deteriorated so much there's nothing out there where people can confidently say they'll buy it

It's going to sell a shit-ton and then create an entire new wave of critique essay videos complaining about how mediocre it actually is, and how Rockstar has fallen.
Just look at the degradation from GTA 4 to 5 and you can immediately tell 6 is going to be miserable.
>>
>>738162495
And then they fire them all the day of the release party. Gaming is lowkey evil af as a business practice. Still not paying 100 dollars.

>>738165118
Anyone who works overtime without pay is an idiot who simps for their boss. If you get paid a salary then do your 40 hours a week and go home, your work is not your life.
>>
>>738165191
Even if GTA 6 sells like crazy it won't make back its dev costs. What rockstar wants is a new GTAO to sell shark cards to kids for flying motorcycles. That is the make or break for GTA6.
>>
>>738163864
If you have a cushy job and a few times a year you have to do a little extra work it's not the end of the world.
>>
>>738165191
Selling a shit-ton isn't enough when the budget of the game goes into the billions. It has to become a game that dominates the market for years in order to recoup the costs, otherwise it is a failure. That's probably why they're so worried about releasing it, just doing "quite good" or even "extremely good" isn't enough.

>>738162495
I’ve been telling you faggots that this culture is one of the worst parts of AAA and why so many products fail. For the first 4-5 years of a AAA product’s development, the devs literally do not do anything. At most they work for an hour and a half a day. They browse the internet, they get a drink at the office barcade, they fool around at the foosball tables and sit in beanbag chairs shooting the shit. Then the publisher knocks on the door and asks why you’ve missed all your milestones, the managers are forced to crack the whip, and all of a sudden everyone cries about muh crunch culture, JASON SCHREIER SAVE ME PLEASE

If you talk to any person that manages a team and is in charge of deliverables at a AAA company, they will tell you verbatim that if you try to get the employees to sit and do real work BEFORE the “crunch” period, the employees will quiet quit, they’ll threaten to unionize, they’ll bitch and whine and when there was more job mobility in the industry a few years ago, they would quit and cite an abusive atmosphere.

Game devs in the west, especially in places like America, just fucking SUCK. They are lazy, entitled, good for nothing retards that put in minimum effort into everything, and then cry and do underhanded shit when the boss tells them to do their fucking jobs

I really doubt these delays have anything to do with it's single player campaign, that thing's probably been done for years, now.
I think it is all about their RP inspired multiplayer they've been working on.
They're basically trying to turn GTA Online into a slightly less crime focused MMO, and since not everyone is a criminal in RP, that means they've set themselves up to creating a ton of content that's not just racing and shooting and doing heists.

For awhile rockstar with GTA was at the forefront in novel games technology, in particular npc reactions and driving physics, but also vehicle deformation and other minor details you'd expect to be overlooked or not thought about at all that build up to a more immersive experience. In the older TECHNOLOGY threads MGS and GTA were amongst the more frequently posted games.

That was Rockstar of more than 10 years ago though, so who's to say if any of that detailed passion might return again.

Hmm, okay, thanks for clearing that up. Personally I don't agree with these, however. They were nothing novel, not even when GTA3 did them. But I guess I can see how WELL all of them came together in that game, as a whole.
