>If GTA6 doesn’t sell 25 million at launch, it’s considered a flopCan they manage this?
>>73821937925 million what?
>>738219507copies obviously what else would it be?
on day 1? probably very unrealistic. in a month I could see it. that's still like 20% of console owners though.
>>738219379nigger, they need to fuck up in the most spetacular way to make even a dent on their sales forecastotherwise, these are baby numbers
>>738219507Shark Cards.
>>738219379they'll get that within a week, but it'll end up being the worst gta ever. that won't matter because they'll still make a cool 2 billi on shark cards within the month.
>>738219379>a jew is trying to cuddle up to the people who accurately predict things so he can pretend to be right because jew journos are always wrongkek what a pathetic piece of shit
wwwww
>>738219379Cyberpunk sold 13 mil at launch, GTA 6 will easily sell triple that
I don’t get the appeal of GTA
>>738219379GTA VI could sell 50M units at launch and still be a flop. The key to GTA V's success was that it kept selling long after launch. It was evergreen. GTA VI will have a MASSIVE launch, the biggest entertainment product launch in history, but if sales drop off, it'll be disastrous. After spending $2B on making, marketing, and supporting the game post launch, a bad post-holiday trajectory will doom Take-Two for the next decade.
>>738220341At this point it's just a weird comfort/nostalgia series for people.
>>738219379That would mean it needs to sell to every single active PS5 owner in the planet lo.
>>738220341It's going to be massively hilarious when nobody else does either and this turd gets flushed like the jeets who made it
>>738220341it's historically been one of those "you can go anywhere/do anything!" games. GTA5 had yoga, for example. Or moving shipping containers with a crane. Or take part in triathlons. Are any of those things fun? No, but you can do them.
It will sell a quadrillion view even if the launch is worse than fallout 76 on the sole basis that "It's GTA", it's literally the most normie game to ever normie. This is the kind of game people whose only other purchase vidya consists of FIFA would buy. I really don't wanna sound like a shill because I straight up do not like it, but there is no fucking chance GTA will not sell stupidly high on brand recognition alone. It is literally impossible for them to fuck it up enough to piss everybody off.Hell, even then, it won't matter because literally every retail and game store on the planet will buy it by the truckloads.
>womyn girlboss protag confirmed>insufferable nogs confirmedwoaw i bet this game is gonna do really good lol
>>738219379People will buy that simply on the hype alone. If it's a flop though, it'd flatline after its opening.
>>738219379Probably not, but they will milk the ever loving fuck out of the idiots who play GTAO with shark cards again.
>Are any of those things fun? No, but you can do them.
>>738219379prism has always been a kike faggot
I don't care how "big" it is, I'm not buying it so stop making shill threads every day to tell us how "big" of a launch it is.I am not having a blast.
>>738219379That says some people predict it will sell 25 million not that it needs to. The game will no doubt be very online focused and pulling in massive microtransaction money for a decade+. Initial sales will be high but the back end on this game is where the real money is.
>>738219379>we're nervous and sweating about the high expectations >this game needs to sell so much we can't afford to take any risks>anyways lets gamble on adding some risky political propaganda in the game after like 70 games flopped from doing that
>>738220518>it's literally the most normie game to ever normie.
There's currently 126 million consoles between PS5 and Xbox it's doable if GTA 6 is that game
>>738220487>>738220551What is the point of these posts when even the shazam troons know this thing will sell like hotcakes whether you like it or not.
>>738220518>but there is no fucking chance GTA will not sell stupidly higIt will come and go just like Elden Ring.But you'll see a bunch of normalfags start making posts like>yo why tf isn't gta hittin the same??>is GTA6...mid? :skull:>We waited 20 years for this shit??
>>738220341an objectively great simulation that isn't jank to play
>>738219379oh wow schreier finally got a single source to go on the record?watching this bum build a career on anonymous sources/innuendo has been painful, games "journalism" is a joke
>>738220739did you see the two insuferrable nogs thoi dont think youre really factoring in how insufferable they are
They made so much money from GTA 5 Online (with those shark cards), that even if GTA 5 were literally free, they still would've made an absurd amount of money.
>>738220801>isn't jankIt's funny people actually say this, because Rockstar somehow get even more of a pass for jank than Bethesda did.
shoo shoo
>>738220715Roblox is for kids, it doesn't cover the millions of "guy with a console who only plays fifa and gta and maybe cowadoody"
>>738220643>Initial sales will be high but the back end on this game is where the real money is.Yea, but will it be predatory enough?
>>738220786Irrelevant, they'll still have bought it. It will make a gorillion dollars.
>>738220739eat shit baby sucker
>>738220878>IT'S LITERALLY THE MOST NORMIE GAME EVER TO NORMIE>AND BY NORMIE I MEAN ONLY AGING MILLENNIALS ONLY IN NORTH AMERICA AND ONLY PLAYING ON THE SMALLEST VIDEO GAME PLATFORM THE CONSOLEYour showing your age, faggot.
>>738220913R* depends on GTAO anon...If normalfags are soured on GTA because it's literally not the best thing ever, that's gonna crash their long-term profit machine with no survivors.
>>738221016>erm, but what about le mobile gamers???
>>738220702>political propaganda is black people in a crime game
India alone will clear 25 mil.
>>738219379There are barely 10 mil active PS5 players and they expect double that?
>>738221145Welcome to the future.
Launch doesn't matter at all. Online will make them disgusting amounts of money regardless
>>738220282>replace main work force with jeets using AI>AI hallucinates and jeets are lazy>have to waste even more time fixing things but you got rid of most of the main work force>instead of saving money, costs remain the same It was too early to bring AI into the industry
>>738220341It is an open world game that feels more like an open world that basically 98% of other games due to the fact that it is filled with potentially meaningless but world/building immersion building activities that are realistic to their setting means a lot.Example:>There is a tennis court>You actually can play tennis in a mini game>It is not just some filler landmark used because it is an urban setting, it is an actual place you can go and do something.>Even if you do not do it, the world feels substantially more alive knowing you canThe games themselves are not that great and I am not a huge GTA fanboy, but I still am wowed by it. Any game in an urban setting with an open world feels like a cheap facsimile compared to GTA. Even a game like Cyberpunk does, because you can do nothing but shoot people. A few questlines with combat dressed up differently (the boxing quests, for example) do not count.
>>738221205GTA 6 will force all the PS4 peasants to upgrade when Rockstar abandons GTA 5 online for the 6 version.
>>738221332Ignore my retarded typos. I rewrote my post halfway through and didn't delete properly. You get the point.
>>738221020Gtao was shit so them making a worse version would be impressive
They're hoping to sell 25 million? That's like a a quarter of PS5 owners. Holy shit
Its only boomers who will get it day 1 for the single player. Young people only care about the online that will come a month or 2 later.
>>738221410What else are they gonna buy?
>>738221357When I said barely 10 mil I was being generous and included ps4.
you fags are coping if you think normalfags aren't going to flock to this gamethere are people who buy consoles just to play GTA for a few hours and then never touch that shit again
>>738221205What logic is that? E33 sold 8 million copies.
>>738219670A week tops
>>738219379Tf they worrying about, it will sell 3 billion copies day 1 with all the normies frothing over it. I'll be satisfied with coming to /v and reading how the game is shit
>>738219379They can and most likely will if the reviews are stellar.
>>738221502>"people"blacks>"buy"steal
>>738219507Maybe 26.
>>738221205How many years until people figure out active does not mean total. You see this shit constantly with steam charts
China won
>>738219379yes
Its going to be the biggest game ever released in history,. Just like how the previous wasAnyone who thinks otherwise is huffing copium not yet obtainable on this planet
>>738220341Me neither and I played like 2 of them, you go around and kill people, after a while it just gets boring.
>>738221205you forgot that Xbox owners buy more games than steam users. They'll be buying 10+ million copies as well.
Gta5 made billions off micro transactions to normalfags all of this performative its going to make all the money aren't all of you already broke and poor? Gas was 4.55 today highest I've ever paid
>>738221292Not enough to be considered a success.
>>738221665the latest gacha is fairly impressive (even though it has a retarded name).Proves GTA doesn't have to own that specific genre.Hopefully it inspires more (non-gachas) to be made.
>>738221205PS5 owner here, I haven't turned that shit on in months. Don't plan on turning it on anytime soon either, but if I buy GTA 6 then I'm suddenly an active user. I'm like a sleeper agent.It's getting so bad that I'm considering putting my PS5 back in the box so less dust can get in it.
>>738219379It probably will sell that, though. GTA is peak normalfag slop.
>>738221696Smaller than Minecraft.
>>738219379Personally I'm only buying on release if there's a performance mode targeting 60fps for the base PS5, otherwise I'm waiting for 50% off or PS6, whichever comes first.
the amount of money they're spending is ridiculous, its just GTA nobody was actually expecting the game to be a masterpiece but at this rate I better be allowed to walk into my TV and start killing hookers myself or I'll be disappointed
I just want GTA to have more RPG elements and more realistic gunfights
>>738220475Yes, it means there will be 10 million people that will purchase a PS5 in 2027, which is completely realistic given the game. At that point, you just need 60% of current PS5 owners to buy it, which is also realistic.
>>738219379>The creative teams are given unlimited financial resources to complete the gameWe don’t even know who the fuck the creative team is. You’d think that’d be the first thing they’d announce after Houser left in 2020.
>>738221959I doubt it the game will probably be 4k 30fps. Starfield didn't launch with a 60fps mode and that game looks like ass compared to GTA 6.
>>738222171
>>738219379Warning: Jason's entire agenda is that the game industry shouldn't exist, because it's a not a jew-centric money-extraction model, due to the lack of unions and lack of oversight by the rothschilds.We've had a rogue industry, and they didn't react to it prior to the point where it rose above Hollywood.
>>738221502People aren't gonna spend $700-1000 for one game in 2026 lmao
the flop narrative that it took so long to come out gta left the cultural consciousness is just sitting there
>>738220801>GTA>not jankFucking what? It took until GTAV to even be able to freely aim weapons
>>738219379This is the normalfag version of HL3. The attach rate for GTA6 will be higher than any CoD, Battlefield, sports, or console exclusive on Piss5. Guarantee it.
>>738222178A mix of the ones who didn't leave (Humphrey) and a lot of women in their late 20s. I know someone who works on it, not in a creative but technical capacity. He's not negative towards it as I am, but he has autistic colleagues and a lot of female friends from the studio. He's also a millenial, and he believes the game is "going to be the best content me and my colleagues have ever built."He previously worked on CGI for the MCU movies, and he's a huge Marvel fan.
>>738221502All that does is send money to Sony. Unless that player keeps playing GTA VI for years and years, that's baaad news for Take-Two.
>>738219379It's gonna sell a million day one in Australia alone.
>>738222527Pic is proof it’s gonna suck
>>73821937925m at launch seems nearly impossible, but if any franchise could pull it off, it's GTA.
>>738222258That's my fear. I would rather drop back down to PS3 resolutions if it meant getting somewhat stable 60fps, but I guess there's the risk of it being limited by the CPU like Dragon's Dogma 2.
>>738221261Mobile gaming was big and the future 10 years ago too. Nobody cares.
>>738222527Why does R* need 100 product managers?
>>738223284>Nobody cares.Investors do.
>>738223567they are all parasites from a certain tribe that always gives their own members worthless overpaid positions in every company
>>738219379easily. every porchmonkey in america will be tradin they EBT, takin out payday loans, and offerin big flappy lip BJs to they zesty crack dealer to scrounge whatever amount those limeys demand. it could even be "a hunnit" dollars and they would still try to hold up a circle k with an airsoft gun to raise the necessary funds
I honestly don't think it's possible for the game to recoup it's costs at this point no matter the sales and they know it. They are banking on post launch things like microtransations to profit.
>>738219379every single retard thinking that the success of gta can/will be measured in copies sold alone needs to have his keyboard access revoked. the VAST majority of gta5's success was from mtx like shark cards. nobody is expecting them to make their entire budget back on launch from sales alone.
>>738224278my goodness the cope has already begun has itthe fucking game isn't even out yet you seething tranny
don't they make endless microtransaction money from chimpanzee subhumans
>>738224278You realize that it's almost 100% certain nu shark cards will be at least double the price right?
>>738224278They should just make the game F2P to pull in all those whales.
>>738224278Nobody has money like they did 10 or 15 years ago. Hell I dont think there are even 25 million PS6 owners.
>>738224723rookie numbers
>>738224325>copethey made like $5b in revenue from shark cards. your impotent kvetching is the real cope.
>>738224808The whales have money. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQHQxDtkq4M
Kindly reminder while Red Dead 2 sold gangbuster, its online version "Red Dead Online" died very early.

>>738224278I still refuse to believe 200 million retards bought the game, I just think 100M is feasible then rest is the same people buying the game multiple times to get MTX bonus in GTAO
>>738225094RDR2 is a ps4 game though with a large owner base since the game came late gen. PS5 sales are way below. See how Spiderman 2, the most normalfag capeshit ip out there sold notably less than the previous game.
>>738225252>PS5 sales are way below.
>>738219379>25 million>console>ps5 and series onlyit's going to be difficult10 mil? sure15 mil? likely20+ mil? just not enough gamers for that
>>738225315Anon the blue line is the ps5.
>>738225194... and? how does this entirely irrelevant list matter? we're talking about budget and financial success, not total franchise revenue.
>>738219379This game will bomb because of how much it costed to make.
>>738219379>25 million>essentially on one console only since the xbox brand is dead outside of people on pc redeeming cheap game pass codesI doubt it will happen without pc in the mix.
it's going to sell 30m day1, 40m week 1 and 60m month 1and sony is getting 1/3rd of that + 1/3rd of every microtransactionkek all the GaaS ultraflops will instantly be funded
>>738219507discord users
>>738225361>92m PS5s>34m Xbox Series soldAll they need is a 20% attach rate… that’s doable. RDR2 sold 17 million in the first week. GTA6 is far more hyped up than RDR2. They are going to do it.
>we are so scared ;( we just don’t know if it will sell enough…>release on PC day one? Erm no… Lmao
>>738225396Sorry, I should've posted this. https://vgsales.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_highest-grossing_video_games
>>738225574>92m PS5sFake number it's more like 30 million at best.
>>738225574You overestimate how many people who bought consoles actually use them. Most sales were scalpers.
>>738225624>mfw PCfags will never EVER play GTA6
>>738225685and do you think scalpers are still sitting on those consolespeople just can't stop coping about the fact ps5 is succesful
>>738225465why would a person with an xbox not buy GTA6?
>>738225378Yea...I know.
I'm going to preorder it
>>738225701>mfw I will never have to play GTA6
>>738225737No. I think they are largely trading them back and forth like buttcoin or stonks or cards or any other speculative market.
>>738219507niggers
>>738225750Yeah... your graph shows what I said, it sells less than the ps4.
>>738225737>no games>worse sales than previous generations even if we pretend scalpers don't exist>successfulWhatever helps you sleep at night.
>>738219379I will not be buying this slop
>>738225850No...the graph does not say that.
>>738225883>worst software lineup ever for any playstation due to the GaaS disaster>still sold more than 100m consoles and killed its main competitoryes i would call that succesful, though not earned
You guys are completely delusional if you think this won't be probably the biggest success in gaming history.It will explode the sales of PS5 too, specially in US.I do expect that Sony will have a second price increase on the second half of the year, just to capitalize on GTA 5 success.And it will be the best selling system of the year, Switch 2 has no chance at all.The king is back baby
>>738225780I don’t believe anyone that says they won’t try out GTA 6 at least once when it comes out
>>738225980>the biggest success in gaming history.Not likely.
>>738225956Yes... It does.
>>738225378NTA, but the point is the lines track relative to the months since release. When RDR2 released the PS4 install base was actually a bit lower than what the PS5 is right now, let alone what it will be at the end of the year when GTA6 comes out.
>>738219379You know, if you got the top industry cumrag kike running damage control of this magnitude this late, things must not be looking great.
>it must be le big success bc muh journo HYPELMAO
>>738225972>killed its main competitorNintendo is doing fine though? Despite it's best efforts to fuck up.
>>738226060No...it doesn't.
>>738226006I have zero interest in it. No chance it will be as good as the games used to be. The franchise has been going downhill since 4.
>>738219379I'm not buying it so... I kinda hope is flops and all the ball and gun niggers raised on GTAV cry and moan and fuck off.
>>738226138>and fuck off.I mean, they only play three or four games their entire life. You've likely never cross paths with any of them in any game ever.
>>738219379I hope everyone's ready for 15 years of GTA6 being the most recent Rockstar game
>>738220863> Uses all kind of kike táticaNever saw this post, I am glad someone printed.Pretty sure that guy was permabaned on Gaf
Schreier is a mossad agent to destabilize and control gaming.
>>738226209I expect GTA 6 to be replaced in less than 5 years.
>>738226113Yes... it doesDon't care anymore I just like e-staring
>>738226302No...it doesn't.
>>738219379I'd rather they deliver a great game every few years than a perfect game once a decade.
>>738226192I want them to stop gaming altogether so as to remove them from the market as a demographic to chase. Almost all my worst experiences online with gamers since 2019 have been GTA/RDR niggers. I'd delete Rockstar from the timeline if I could. Mediocre fuckin' games overall. RDR2 is neato tho but I would never admit it to a real person.
>>738220901Who df is playing much less paying for Monopoly?
Im not buying Rockstarslop
>>738220863His lowest moment, preserved forever
>no GTA in 15 years >barely any clones besides that shitty woke Saints Row that flopped Why wouldn’t devs capitalize on that? Shit like Watchdogs doesn’t count.
>>738222307Fucking this. Never forget that shit is more expensive than ever and people are the poorest they have been in a 100 years.
>>738226489Try 200 years.
>>738219379I'll do my part to derail it. I'll spam webms of glitches, no matter how minor. The slightest bit of wokeness and I'll make sure it's all anybody talks about. I'll make sure general audiences are totally turned off to this product.Then I'll play it when uncle tim buys it for me.
>>738226476because a competent open world game like GTA is hard and expensive to make. Watch dogs is the best you get when you half ass it
>>738226476People aren't interested in a second rate open world game.
>>738219379> Unless GTA6 sells a number of copies that is literally higher than the entire population of Florida it will be considered a failureJesus Christ, this industry is so fucked
>>738226609False
hordes of normies and niggers with ebt cards will be camping outside walmarts across the country, 25 million is nothing
>>738226476They got the mix of decades of in-house culture to produce those, extremely efficient (low) pay and brand power. No one is insane enough to take the plunge for the decade minimum investment it would take, especially now that the AAA model has been officially declared dead. The closest we ever got was that Ubisoft game you probably don't even remember the name.
>>738219379GTA V still sell that every year lmao
>>738220341My first GTA was 4. I never played San Andreas or Vice City for some reason, and I'm 31 so it's not like I was too young when they released. I thought 4 was a cool sandbox game and gave you the freedom to do a lot of shit, and it was the first time I played a game with that much attention to detail. But after the initial appeal wore off, I realized how shallow and basic the core gameplay and systems are. Had no desire to play 5 and will probably skip 6 as well. A lot of the systems just feel like shovelware to me, yeah it's cool that you can order fast food at a restaurant or go into a care dealership and buy a car rather than steal one, or do a lot of realistic shit, but why would I want to do any of that shit in a video game? Tried playing RDR2 and dropped it 6 hours in after the game was nothing but nonstop time wasting activities and minigames when all I wanted to do was rob trains. I get the appeal or games like that, but personally I find it boring.
>>738226725>No one is insane enough to take the plunge for the decade minimum investment it would takeNot true
>>738226682NTA but tbf genshin's business model was always expanding the map every year and now it's gigantic while R* make just one generously big and stay with it. Now I wonder if Ananta will do the same to compete even though it will not be a gacha.
>>738219670Red Dead Redemption 2 sold 17 million copies in a week, the much lesser but still big Rockstar IP. The expectations the masses have for GTAVI is immeasurable, if the marketing machine really gears up from July onwards like some rumors say it will then 25 million on launch is very possible.
>>738225980>And it will be the best selling system of the year, Switch 2 has no chance at all.Delusional.
>>738221770>you forgot that Xbox owners buy more games than steam userslollmao even
>>738221327literally this. indians review my PRs with AI and I have to spend like entire days going through the spam review comments - half of them being totally wrong or at least pointless
>>738220341I started thinking like this too but only after GTA IV (after having played I, II, III, VC, SA)
>>738220341Spree killing simulators have been a thing for ages and they'll always have a large teenage audience since it's just mindless fun to mow down pedestrians. I reinstall RDR2 periodically just to roam around St. Denis and murder people, I only play it for a couple of hours and then uninstall it but it's always satisfying for those few hours. For GTA you've got the added fun of griefing people in multiplayer lobbies which is a great activity to do with friends. Nothing quite like ruining someone else's fun with the lads.
>>738220379Won't happen 5 was pretty weak compared to 4So I can imagine an actually decent game selling more copies in the long run
>>738227310You think GTA 6 could sell more than 225M copies?
>>738226859the issue is that games like genshin are like 90% wilderness so you just copy and paste that. GTA6 can do that with a bunch of empty islands I guess but making an actual city takes a long of time and effort
>>738227962>but making an actual city takes a long of time and effortOr a lot of chinese slave labor
>>738227962GTA games are just one tiny city crammed into the edge of the map. 90% of the GTA5 map is empty area no one goes to.
>>738228125got an example that's not GTA5
>>738219379Honestly they waited too long. Gaming is straight up dead for younger generations. Most kids under 18 literally can't use a controller these days. It's hilarious that these companies thought they could keep a MEDIA industry going with barely 2 good games a decade
>>738228125There's a reason GTA5 is the most disliked GTA map
>unlimited financial resourcesHm.
>>738228140San Andreas, Vice City (the game GTA6 is based on). Liberty City is the only one that's all city and Rockstar hasn't made a game in that city in the decades.
>>738228057That's a fun little easter egg. Too bad it's in a gacha.
>>738219379>Rockstar goes console first to serve the core consumerlmao, complete bullshitThey do it because GTA is such a massive franchise that they can afford to artificially delay the PC release to effectively release the game twice, with all the financial incentives that entails.
>>738219379Easily, wont get one from me as i never cared for GTA, but there is enough children and retarded parents to make this quickly feasible.
>>738228246>Vice Cityare you retarded?
>>738220198>week5 days at most
>>738228279https://www.tweaktown.com/news/111012/gta-online-makes-dollars4-4-million-per-week-on-ps5-platform-rakes-in-53-percent-of-all-gtao-weekly-bookings/index.html
>>738228146There's tons of gamers in their late 20s and 30s. You don't have to appeal to the roblox/fornite generation to sell a shitton. That being said, I doubt this will outsell GTA5 within the same timeframe, unless they really include something crazy that hasn't been seen in vidya before, which I doubt. No one is that impressed by games being really immersive or realistic anymore, which is part of the big appeal for GTA.
>>738228336>50% beach and airport tarmacExactly. Now look at the GTA6 map project. The city is just as small as the original Vice City but surrounded by 95% golf course, swamp, and empty land.
They sure haven't shown much of fucking anything at all for such an expensive game that's supposedly coming out within the next five years.
>>738220341Only open world game series that doesnt feel empty. Also lets you "gang" bang.
>>738219379It will easily sell that much in pre orders alone
>>738228146>Gaming is straight up dead for younger generations.
>>738220863The battle was rigged before it even started. Jason Schreier can get away with saying anything when Lynn Forrester de Rothschild is already pulling the strings on the global stage of Capitalism since 2014 from above.There's a reason he suddenly became so prominent, and games journalism pushing for feminism suddenly became overpowering so quickly. It's not because everyone just suddenly supported it or won that culture battle. It's because the money behind it was already pushing it forward back then.
>>738219379>anyone believe that the biggest long awaited highly anticipated normalfag game of the century is somehow going to sell anything less than 500 million on launch day after people waited for 3 console generations for a sequel and entire industries have been made off this gameIt's too big to fail, even if its shit
>>738219379>and even get some customers to buy the game twicewho the fuck actually does this? I'm more likely to not buy a fucking game at all if by the time it releases on PC the hype has died down and it's obvious it's not as good as the marketers would want you to think.>>738228368Are there really NO games on PS5 that everyone has to play GTA online?
This is the entire playable area where 99% of players in GTA6 online will be. It's even smaller than GTA5's city.
>>738228520Empty as in it doesn't have a bunch of shit around or it doesn't have enough actual content?
>>738219379>Jason SchreierThat faggot is still around? I remember when he was shitting things up during the 1st Gamergate.
>>738228623>Are there really NO games on PS5 that everyone has to play GTA online?That's every platform these days.
Didn't Sony just raised PS5 prices and if they need a calculated 25 million copies, why not simultaneously release it in PC, surely the chinks will buy it.
>>738228491they never do
>>738228698>surely the chinks will buy it.No.
>>738228638who gives a shit? all those faggots need is a police station, a hospital and a nightclub. They don't go anywhere else anyway
>>738228643For one, most open world games hardly have any NPC's you can interact with and make a world feel "alive" in Skyrim you dont even see NPC's walking around on trails and paths like they do in GTA with NPC's on sidewalks and driving cars.GTA really only feels "empty" when you run out of missions and do all the side content/missions. GTA feels more of a fleshed out world because at least the NPC's do bark back at you. Is GTA perfect? Not really but at least with Rock Star's games, the world does feel filled at the very least. If GTA actually supported mods from the gate, it would be a Trillion Dollar Franchise.
>>738221858That's Ananta not NTE.
>>738220341Everybody will play it, you want to fit in.
I can't wait for this game. Fuck off anyone who is being a contrarian doomer just because they think that's how you're supposed to act on 4chan. I can't fucking wait. WOO!
>>738219379This game is going to be like Groundhog Day for gaming. If it flops, it’s over for the entire industry and there will be a catastrophic crash. If it succeeds… there might be a glimmer of hope
>>738228909I didn't play gta 5 until 2020 or so, I'll be fine waiting for it to go on saleI think they're cool games but I never saw this massive hype. It's a single player open world game why do I have to be hyped and buy a console for it lol. I don't really get that type of thinking
>HORSE BALLS
>>738226006Nigger I didn't even buy 5
>>738220341It's the epitome of ball and gun game
>>738221539Didn't know E33 was a timed console exclusive
>>738220341I don't get it either, the games always come off as a jack of all trades, master of none. Anything you can do in gta games just reminds you of a better game that did X mechanic better, instead of half assed million things in 1.
>>738228464No your point was "one tiny city at the edge of the map". Vice City isn't this and neither is San Andreas. GTAV isn't better if you cut all the wilderness, it's that it needs to justify itself. SA's country side is the middle point to 3 equal sized cities. VC's beach is a companion to ocean drive, it's decoration. The tarmec you go there for flying vehicles
>>738219379lets see how their woke choices will work out in the post-woke world.
>>738228915>there might be a glimmer of hopeFor the shareholders maybe. For consumers it's far better that shit crashes.
>>738229131>posts 2/3rds empty map of just wilderness
>>738229156You’re talking about the livelihoods of tens of thousands of people. Sorry they don’t cater to incels anymore like they used to, but that doesn’t mean they should be homeless. Grow the fuck up
>>738229178>missing the point thinking that everyone just wants only city lol and not intelligent spacing of contentliterally you're too low IQ for the conversation
>>738220341it was mind blowing in 2001 with GTA3its the same fucking shit ever since except basically worse since SAits pure reddit
>>738229140That's why it was delayed. Had to go back and remove all of the woke they spent 12 years putting in.>>738229234>intelligent spacing of contentGTA5 and GTA6 content is separated by max emptiness to sell Shark Cards. You need the fastest cars to get to the objectives they scatter in the wilderness in reasonable time and outrun the enemies trying to get your loot.
>>738219379>selling 10 millions units at launch would be considered disastrousReally makes the whole project sound fucking retarded but there's no pretty much no chance of it bombing. Even if it underperforms a little GTA online can easily recoup those losses.
>>738229285>GTA5 and GTA6 content is separated by max emptiness to sell Shark Cards. You need the fastest cars to get to the objectives they scatter in the wilderness in reasonable time and outrun the enemies trying to get your loot.Yes this is what we call bad world design
>>738219379Their biggest problem is consoles only at launch.A lot of people haven't bothered to buy a PS5/SeX and we're going into a November where nobody is going to have any money.A $700 console for a single game is going to be a tough sell no matter how big GTA is.The PS5 and SeX have sold a combined ~120 million units. When GTA 5 released in 2013, the PS3/360 were well over 160 million.
>>738219379It has zero chance doing that on two platforms let alone on one
>most hyped game in the history of gaming, even more than games like HL3>will have a multiplayer that is guaranteed to make billions upon billions for 10+ years>intentionally avoiding releasing on the biggest platform (PC)we’re so scared…. W-we just don’t know if it’ll be a success…………
>>738219379The craziest thing about GTA 6 is going to be just how fucking bad of a game it's going to be and it's going to sell record numbers regardless because the social capital the normal fags and piss station 5 fifa niggers stand to lose on missing the "current thing"
>>738229285GTAV was made without plans of GTAO getting big. When GTAO first launched all the missions were instanced to one location and everything paid out at a flat rate no matter how fast or slow you were
>>738229417See >>738221489
>>738220341They used to have good driving and good music. Then gta5 came out and lacked both of those but it still sold better than ever because they turned it into a games as a service and it basically became roblox for brown kids and also white kids who considered themselves too cool for roblox
>>738219379i hope it flops but it wont
>>738229508I mean Vice City and (to a much lesser extent) San Andreas had good music.The rest of the series not so much.And that's probably because of the eras they were set in more than a conscious effort on Rockstar.
>The most hyped game in history will flopIn what world? Even if it underperforms it will just recoup it losses with GTAO.
>>738228915>If it flops, it’s over for the entire industryNah.
>>738222331I don't get what you mean by "freely aim weapons". What changed in gta5 that you couldn't do in VC?Maybe its that I played VC (and SA) on PC but my entire experience with 5 was on ps3&5 at a buddy's place but you can aim in both of them?
Game budgets have clearly lost the plot, huh
>>738229230
>>7382295914 had great music. The rock and russian stations were kino and i learned of some of my favorite songs from there. 5's score was dogshit though. Cant remember a single scire i liked. Just rap junk
I want to actively help make it flop. The entertainment the game provides does not outweigh the schadenfreude I'd feel with Rockstar's destruction.
>>738219379what has sold really well in the last year to use as a metric?best I could think of is Monster Hunter: Wilds.
>>738229591>And that's probably because of the eras they were set in more than a conscious effort on Rockstar.Because starting with gta4 they stopped giving a fuck about the canon timeline the og trilogy setup to push the series into modern time to be able to cram all the garbage that is modern music for the sake of advertisement. Hell the og trilogy was set in the 90s for the most part but the radios of thos games had plenty of music from decades before that now look at the GTAV playlist and you are lucky if you find anything that is before 2010s that is not literal who slop to appease normalniggers with no taste.
>>738229836Phil CollinsRadio GagaSleepwalkingMidnight City5 also had an original score which was a bit generic but fit the missions.
>>738228698>why not simultaneously release it in PCBecause double-dipping is a tried-and-true formula for Rockstar. With the rumor of next-gen consoles coming up next year at the earliest, they appear to follow GTA5 playbook. I'd reckon they'll release the PC port at the same time as the next-gen re-release.
>>738229921Ogden's Nut Gone Flake tooThinking about it the best music was used in trailers and everything else is bad
>>738219507Console Paid Demos
>>738219379>needs 25 million copies sold at launch>not launching on PCit's DOA then
>>738230090>>738229927
>>738220341Let's be real the average normie doesn't even finishes GTA, they just like the fact that it is a "real life simulator" where you can run over and shoot people
True Crime/Sleeping Dogs mogged GTA.
>>738220341It's a safe crime game.
GTA 6 will be the worst best selling game ever. Pure, unadultered goyslop of biblical pozzing that will reach unholy numbers just because of the brand alone.
>>738229887GTA V and RDR2 are in the top 5 best selling games of all time. I don't think anything comparable to a Rockstar game has released in years.Monster Hunter and Resident Evil games have lifetime sales of like ~10-20 million. GTA 5 has sold 225 million.
>>738230240You guys were fine with GTA’s satire when it punched down on trans people and minorities. Now that white people are getting their turn to be mocked you start crying, huh
>>738230294>entertainment product appeals to its target demographic>entertainment product appeals to a non-existent target demographic
>>738230240is there a reason people have such a hate boner for GTA6 outside of it being popular. It always feels forced
>>738230390Lol white men aren’t the only people to play. Especially a franchise as big as GTA. I’m sure you’ll survive if one single game isn’t made for white men for once.
>>738230294I'm a "marginalized group" person. GTA6 not being brutally mean-spirited would be boring and off-brand.And let's be honest, no matter how offensive 6 is, retards will still call it woke because one of the MCs is a woman.
>>738230434/v/ is always contrarian but also you could tell they were looking forward to GTA 6. Then they found the game isn’t about making fun of minorities anymore and they’ve been acting bitter about it ever since
>>738226682genshin is first rate
>>738230510Yeah but they can play as a tall ex-military white guy? They say it doesn't appeal to them. Are they not white?
>>738230467Here is GTA's target demographic in order of size:>Straight White Males>Black White Males>Hispanic White Males...>Everyone elseI assure you, all three major GTA demographics hate Trans/Gays/Feminists/Muslims/Jews/Women/White Women unless they're fucking them.
>>738230294I just hope they keep the Trump bashing to a minimum. I don't like the guy but it has been over a decade of comedy making fun of the same shit. It basically ruined the last season of South Park because every episode was Trump centric.
>>738230581RDR2 did the same but because Arthur isn’t racist they acted like the game is “cucked”
>>738229230It does in fact mean they should be homeless. Gaming has fallen, billions must die.
>>738230434>Reeks of woke>GTAV was dogshit except for retards who don't play videogames>Shills already on the pounce even though there is literally no information on release date>Cuckstar lost it's best devs for jeets and troons>Resetera troons on preemptive defence modeGee I wonder why these daily threads keep being bumped by tards that instead of discussing anything it's just the usual marketer for throwing graphs and responding robotically to bait. Full nuclear damage control incoming.
>>738230434>>738230510>>738230581Let's not be disingenuous now, Rockstar games are as pozzed as Snoy slop now
>>738230735what does reek of woke mean? Can you give examples?
>>738230434>grand theft auto, the series known for making fun of niggers and trannies>why are you guys le mad it's gonna be red instead of blue i do actually wonder if rockstar employs shills that parade as "anons". you cant be this fucking retarded
>>738230739It’s Jewish programming for white men. “SEE THIS BADASS CHAD WHITE GUY??? LOOK HES A SIMP AND A KEK AND HE HATES RACISM, YOU SHOULD BE LIKE HIM, ASSOCIATE YOUR IDENTITY AND SENSE OF MASCULINITY WITH MEN LIKE HIM”
>>738230739Was there ever a racist R* main character?
Can't do this in GTA
>>738219379>25 million copiesAt what PRICE?Even at around $60~70 it would be pushing it to sell so much so quickly, anything above $80 would be pure fucking retardation.
>>738230841go play ethnic cleansing if you want that
>>738230739That's not a moralfag, that's straight up a villain. He has no principles and thus cannot be a moralfag. Kenshiro is a moralfag, that's just a fag.
>>738219379The GTA online store makes billions per month even now right? This game is literally GUARANTEED to print money over the course of 10 years no matter what they do.There is quite literally no way it can fail unless society as a whole is destroyed.
>>738219379The PS5 needs to get more expensive. I wanna see Rockstar bite the dust
>>738220341the ps2 games were cool
>>738230820How did they make fun of niggers can you give me an example?
If 10m is a disater how is 25m great? You'd expect 50m to be the golden number and 25m to just break even if 10m is a problem.
>>738230953>billionsTry TRILLIONS
>>738230809>Can you give examples?Yeah the brown jeet talking to me with chatgpt in this thread to shill a game that isn't even out yet. Hint prompt: (You)
>>738230510GTA used to make fun of everyone and everything. That's why it was so widely loved. It was about transgressing against societal norms. Looks like now it's just sanitized safe and boring.
>>738231075cringe response
>>738219379GTA 6 doesn't need to push 25 million sales, unless they;re broke and can't wait for GTAO.GTAO is what will make them their money. They could probably make GTAO free and still make their money back with shark cards.
>>738231085>It was about transgressing against societal norms.>I WANT GTA TO LET US FUCK CHILDREN
>>738219379>budget Unlimited
>>738230953I wouldn't be so confident.They dropped RDR2 online because it failed to get a big enough userbase.GTA V could be a fluke especially since I have my suspicions the vast majority of people playing it are in low income countries who don't own hardware good enough to play 6 yet.
>>738231085The culture has completely flipped and now the mainstream is racist and white supremacist, so making a game that punches up on white people IS being transgressive
>take out a loan to afford ps5(it's 2027 and the entry model is now 2k)>buy game(150 dollars, I can't afford the 250 premium edition)>decide to treat myself and buy some day 1 dlc(another 50 dollars for a rainbow t-shirt, it's a great deal)>buy the online pass too(30 dollars a month, only losers wouldn't)>scan my face to unlock the console for the next 30 minutes(you don't have anything to hide right chud?)Aw yeah, it's gaming time!
>>738219507Generational slave contracts. The blood debt has become too great to bear. Microtrans can no longer feed the beast.
If USA can't get a woman president but GTA can get a woman protagonist, you just know it's fucking pozzed to hell and back
>>738229836Completely agree. The radio on 4 is one of the greatest collections of songs ever in a game. For me cyberpunk and some of the Tony hawk underground games are the others in that realm. Crazy how shit the radio in 5 is. A few good punk songs but thats it.
>>738219379/v/ trying to go up against gta 6 is the funniest shit I have ever seen. EVERYONE talks about gta. even my co-workers who only play sportslop always talk about it. this is going to be an extremely humbling experience for you pathetic chuds when it releases.
>>738219379GTA6 will sell 40 million on day one. I bet 8 million people have it pre-ordered.
>>738228638How close have these fan maps been in the past?
>>738231165It also would not surprise me if Rockstar eventually back ports the game to PS4 in a few years.Running at 360p on the lowest graphics possible of course.
GTA 6 is going to sell 30 at least
>>738231165>GTA V could be a fluke especially since I have my suspicions the vast majority of people playing it are in low income countries who don't own hardware good enough to play 6 yet.https://www.installbaseforum.com/forums/threads/leak-gta-online-and-red-dead-online-revenue-and-player-stats-result-of-rockstar-hack.4527/
>>738231183>install finally completes after a few false starts>recruiters show up with the draft and send you off to die on behalf of Israel
>>738230434Aside from contrarians I know a lot of people have seen how many of the old big names with Rockstar leave over the years and fear it'll be a boring game. Not bad, just missing it's edge and spirit. It'll probably play fine, the map will be beautiful, but, it'll just be ok, and for a game as big as GTA, that's not good. AAA thinks people live forever and never retire and squander the peak years of people's creativity and will to make something (Or ability to contribute) and end up having entirely new teams with all the old people who made the magic happen, leaving, and people are disappointed and bitter about the choices made that lead to such a long dev time (In this case, the fact they didn't even start to dev until 2020, having focused on GTAO and milking players for 7 years, and now 6 years later, they're playing with only half their team, when they could have, for the same dev time, already had a game out with their whole team intact, and possibly be working on 7 with some new blood more gracefully integrated)
>>738231339Fascinating. Disregard my opinion I suck cocks.
>>738219379GTA is the most braindead lowest common denominator goyslop game franchise imaginable it'll do that easily on its first day of release.
>>73823132699% accurate for GTA5. Only part they're not 100% sure of for this one is the very top portion. Not enough preview footage of that side of the map.
>>738231174>and now the mainstream is racist and white supremacist
>>738230134weekly active players =/= salespc players have a billion games to play. they'll buy gta 6, play it for two weeks, and move on while playstation has a lot of kids who play for an hour a day but will keep that up consistently for a year because they only own three games
>>738231246>EVERYONE talks about gta. even my co-workers who only play sportslop always talk about it.
>>738228638The game has a bunch of Georgia license plates and a very Georgia-esq mountain region to the north. I really do wonder if they're hiding the fact it takes place across two states.

>>738231407Fuck really? Haha damn. Have link to final gta 5 fan map?
>>738231448
Honestly, I kinda want it to "flop", because it would definitely cause an industry crash if it did
It's the only game I'm looking forward to. Hopefully online doesn't launch as buggy as RDR2 online did.
>>738231493No one played the old GTA games before III
>>738231510Nah, I won.
>>738231551Imagine the oy veying that would unfold.

>>738220341a bunch contrarian comments here saying GTA 5 is bad when GTA 5 is what GTA franchise popularity through the roof
Guys is it possible there will be a shortage somehow if it sells 20 million in a day?
>>738231538imagine losing to fucking XBOX ONEpcbros...
>>738227361Only limiting factor for gta 6 is the hardware So yeah it will sell more than 225 unless there's a world war 3
>>738231605Holy christ thats close. How the fuck did they do this
>>738231641>unless there's a world war 3Nothing that a few corpo spooks can't solve.
>>738231623Physical copies are gonna be $10 more expensive than the digital download.
>>738231694With GTA5 they did it entirely by estimating scale of buildings and roads from preview videos. Each new video they added more detail. With GTA6 it's even more accurate because they started with the leaked early game build.
>>738229438U-Uh no that’s not true because I said so
>>738228638>>738231407There is no way that Port Gellhorn is as sparse as that map makes it out to be. We've seen plenty of screenshots showing it's an industrial area extending miles.
>>738231697>Aye big yahu calm your horses down I'm tryin to sell a video game over here
>>738231370You make it sound like R* laid off thousands of people. Also GTA6's active development started after RDR2 released because everyone at R* was working on that. I think the countless examples of "Big Name" devs hitting it off on their own and failing is representative that it's about the whole team and resources and not a handful of guys. People in these threads used to jerk off Leslie Benz in R* threads until he shat out Mindseye
>>738231814They're pretty confident they have that area fully mapped. Here's a link to the interactive map.https://map.stateofleonida.net/

>>738226006The last GTA I bought was San AndreasI don't care for this genre anymore
>>738219379It could if it launches day and date on Switch 2 as the PS5 and Xbox series releases (doable since a series S version exists, and DLSS allows switch 2 to be even better than Xbox in some cases). Would be a huge audience for GTA in the aging Nintendo crowd, especially since early adopters of the console are mostly older fans anyway. Resident Evil is a great example of this, and with GTA being as big as it is, theres no doubt they could hit it. Xbox is a dead brand, so without Nintendo day 1 25 million on PS5 is just not possible. Obviously PC would mitigate this issue too, but theyve already said thats not coming at launch.
>keep delaying game release by years>keep pumping out cgi trailers which the game is 1000% not going to look like at all when in-game (even though you claim it's totally rendered in-engine!!1!)>set expectations higher than Mount Everest>"we need to sell 100 billion copies to break even or we're all toast."they're so toast.
It will probably be the past huge video game released before WW3 basically relegates everything to mobile gaas gacha, retro gaming, or low budget cheap indies

>>738221332So what? You can play a bunch of mini-games in Yakuza/Persona as well.
>>738219379release it alreadyI only use it as a killing woman simulator anyway
>>738232960Nintendo and PC are dead brands, we have data that shows Xbox being the biggest spenders right now.
>>738233490Yakuza is a game that does get big points for that. I said 98%, not 100%. However, GTA does it way better as I actually think the games not being big elaborate mini games with some kind of system attached to them like Yakuza makes them feel more organic. Not that I am complaining, Yakuza is a game that will always give you your value for your dollar.Persona, I totally disagree. The "mini games" are not that at all. They're interacting with something in the world for stat points. I think the closest you get to an actual mini game is like... Darts in P5 which you probably do all of 2-3 times and it takes up an entire day and does not feel like an 'activity' I am doing to be immersed in a world, but is instead just them slightly gamifying raising the bond between my party members.
>>738232332What game is this?

I know gta 6 will sell insanely well and may be the last mega selling game ever. I also know it will be only slightly above average.Also, I'm not buying it no matter what. It will succeed without me but I don't want to support this shit
gta v was on the top 10 game sellers for a lot YEARS. gta vi could be an actual turd and still get crazy high numbers just from having gta on the title.
Gta 5 was 15 years ago. Rdr2 is pretty much 10 years old now. There's a whole generation who doesn't give a shit about Rockstar games and an entire subset who aged out. Their main audience now is third worlders
>>738235687on pc, for rp mod servers
>>738233490Yakuza's map is like 1 street of a city. it's about 1/100th of GTA's map. and you're outright lying about Persona, there aren't any mini-games other than a really really shitty batting cage.
>>738228057Wait, there is a first person autogynephilia camera in this game?
>>738219379I would genuinely be surprised if GTA6 took more than a week to sell 30 mil
>>738229887Zelda TOTK sold 10 mil in 3 days, so probably that?
>>738219379I hope it kills rockstarBut it won't
>>738231246Yeah they are 4contrarian mongoloids.
Make it $100. Do it, you cowards.
>>738226472>His lowest momentI beg to differ
I haven't played a gta game since san andreas
>>738237320apparently it's going to be $60.
>>738220341Nowadays people just use it for RP. Kek.
>>738230891>anything above $80 would be pure fucking retardation.Do people really care that much about $10-15 for the biggest game in the world that gets a new entry every 10-15 years? That's $1 per year extra until the next installment.
>>738219379Goy
>>738219379I won't be buying it so that is one copy less.
>>738220702Just add the pride parades then give people the option to drive right through the crowds. Everybody wins.
I don't understand why they're scared, if anything the last 10 years of games proved that as long as your name and marketing budget are big enough, you can do no wrongNintendo took 7 years to deliver BOTW DLC, they sold it as a new game for $70, and it got 10/10s across the board and sold 20M copies, Bethesda took 7 years to deliver Saarfield as a new IP, an Xbox 360 tier game, and got rave reviews and sold 6M copies and it's still selling wellThey have literally no reason to be afraid
>>738219379FLOPSTAR games GTA 6 will be a financial flop due to being console exclusive for months-years. It will sell 10+ millions quickly but still fail sales expectations. Console exclusivity will make the game a financial flop (per Take2's metrics). Hype will already be dead once it comes to PC.
Imagine if GTA 6 was born as a DLC for GTA 5 and the map was really small and the story was only 6 hours long and without side stories ahah
>Jason Schreier
>>738238725Rockstar had tapped in Rockstar India for additional development.
>>738226006NTA but I've never had the urge to play any of the GTA games. They're a bit too realistic-looking for me.
Didn't GTAV make close to a billion in two days?
>>738219379>Jason SchreierStopped reading there.
>>738219379if buy it on console and then on pc again you are a goycattle
>>738220341The characters and missions are fun, at least in San AndreasBut 99% of gta players are low iq apes that don't even do story and just shoot the police, I don't get the appeal of this too, how is this fun
>>738219379>If GTA6 doesn’t sell 25 million at launch, it’s considered a flopI hope for Rockstar's sake that this includes the 30-31 days after the game launches.
>>738238725It's a matter of the scale of the development too, not just time.
>>738226006I have never played gta5
>>738221205I own a ps5 and never turn it on since it has no games. I believe there would be a lot of people like me
>>738238725They're only releasing on dead platforms like PS5 at launch because they're retarded.It'll sell well, but I don't know how many people will buy a dead console to play one shitty game.
>>738219379when they say shit like this you have to wonder why they dont just make it multiplatform sony being retarded and making the ps5 more expensive isn't really going to play into their favor
>>738219507players*
>>73821937915 million day 1 and 50 million within year one is guaranteed, anything beyond will be impressive.
>>738219379On launch?On console only launch?Probably not. Are there even 25 million consoles?
The only way I’m trying GTA6 is if I can pirate it on PC. Otherwise I just don’t care. GTA5 was garbage, RDR2 was somewhat impressive but the ability to make a cowboy game doesn’t necessarily translate to an as-impressive urban environment, an it’s not like the interactions in RDR2 were complex, just some cool attention to detail with AI that’s as dumb as ever. I honestly don’t believe they have the human capital do deliver on what GTA6 promises. It’s gonna be the nail in the coffin of their reputation just like CP2077 was for CDPR.
>>738219379>buy the same game twiceLmao, I won't even buy it once if I see the console version and it confirms my fears.
Is the current console install base even capable of 25 million sales at launch? That would be 1 in 4 people with a PS5 buying it at launch.
>>738240618They're probably banking on a lot of people buying consoles for the game. There's a whole generation of kids who are hyped for this slop.
>>738220341I'll put it in a way that even trannies could understand: it's RGG but on a much larger scale, except it's less cringe and more fun and there's more things to do, ie. drive the fucking vehicles and do whatever you want with them.
>>738219379It’ll sell that much at launch, easily. Anyone shocked by the idea of them getting PC players to double dip is a fucking moron.
>>738228464>disingenuous loserthe map project is massive, VI vice city alone is the size of 90% of V's map, now add in the swamp, the MULTIPLE OTHER CITIES like port gelhorn, the massive forests which will feature RDR2's entire hunting system (the best hunting system in vidya btw) this game also is going to feature deep RPG mechanics like san andreasgame is absurdly massive and ambitious and you have to be mentally damaged not to be curious to see it in action.We haven't had ambitious vidya like VI for almost 30 years now, some of the patents they have filed alone sound absolutely revolutionary for video games it's insane and this is all good because it sets a new massive higher standard for video games that all should follow, this is what vidya is all about and nice to see it again for once after so long.
>>738219379I hope standard edition costs $90
>>738221020>If if ifIt's going to sell at least 20 million copies opening weekend. It will once again break records just like GTA 5 did when it launched. And that's just the beginning. By the end of the year it will likely pass the 35 million units sold mark, the shark cards money machine will already be producing infinite money and the game will continue to sell millions of copies a year for the next 10 years.
>>738240963not mention by this time next year it will be out for PC and every single retard journo headline is going to be gushing over it's upcoming trillion dollar generating UGC empire.
>>738219379A PC port will happen very fast. A handful of months at most once the shareholders see the underwhelming sales and ask why platforms were left out.
>>738221016Americans play FIFA?
>>738229079E33 was a debut game from an unknown studio. And it was turned based combat. GTA is maybe the biggest gaming franchise in the world. And it's gameplay is far more appealing to the average gamer. GTA 6 will have more than 8 million copies sold within 5 minutes of the game launching.
>>738221489It's REALLY suspicious how the pis5 apparently keeps selling tens of millions each year but none of the software sales are anywhere close to making use of that supposed installbase.
>>738240963It amazes me that people don’t understand this. I know this board is incredibly out of touch sometimes, but the amount of people so out of touch they think there’s a chance GTA could fucking flop is astonishing.
>>738225249The shark cards you get with buying the game is cheaper than buying shark cards when you already own it. So people just keep buying copies not to play it but to redeem the codes.
>>738241135Almost every American south of Texas.
Imagine how many smaller games they could have done with this money they now need to make back the 20 years dev time.
>>738232960Gotta love how the most retarded mouthbreathers think peak dudebro normalfag slop like gta is are not massive sellers on xbox.There is a reason sony got jealous of of xbox because they got way more spending per user than sony with all of their dead installbase.
>>738240662Kids do not care about gta. They only care for it as vehicle to watch their favourite ecelebs do RP on private online servers.
>>738241739It's always funny seeing people stereotype GTA it's either "kids game" or "brown people only game".But majority of the players are 28+ easily and every ethnicity is into the games even the Japanese have massive FiveM servers and stream FiveM RP.
>>738241739>>738235990What's so fun about rp servers
>>738230294Trannies deserve to get punched on though. As for racism, I'm not sure if GTA was ever racist. Sure it probably has had a lot of racial stereotypes but it has had eg. white businessmen characters and white politician characters played for laughs too, and some of the protagonists have been black guys.
>>738219379>trting to get that much sales at launch>doesnt include PCAre they retarded? How are you gonna achieve that when the PS5 is nowhere near the sales that PS4 and PS3 got. Especially with the Xbox brand being dead in the water nowadays. You could at least maybe achieve it with the help of the X360 and Xbox One. Like seriously for some publishers, PC alone is essentially 50% of their entire sales like for capcom.
>>738219379surprising how this kike doesn't say anything about the crunch allegations
>>738242172GTA has always been a bit weird with racism Like the haitan stuff in VC that was honestly tame but a few haitan idiots whined and they ended up censoring it early on.They also removed the confederate flag from phil cassidys shirt & trailer in VC
>>738219379>actually admitting that the reason they don't release on PC at the same time is because they want to jew as many double dippers as they canEveryone already knew, but I'm still surprised they said it
>>738242378They will be fine, if it flop it will not be this hard and they will just sell it HIGH to other retarded DEI implanted in Playstation monthly subscription game list
>>738242378Steamies don't buy video games
>>738242860I mean everyone knows that's their meta strat now since they've pulled it off twice with V and RDR2, not saying its ok but people double dip anyway so why wouldn't they continue to do it?They also prevent data leaks for about half a year when they initially remain console exclusive although when V released it was far easier to delve into files with the PS3 so we ended up having like all the dialogue leak before it launched lol
>>738242172>>738242775>>738230294Also a GTA4 expansion from a long time ago (2009-2010) had a funny arab oil money man stereotype character but also had a gay man I don't remember being particularly played for laughs as the crime boss of the main (latino) character. But who wouldn't laugh at trannies except trannies...

>>738243125Was it the ballad of gay tony? I actually never played through that, only the lost DLC and base game.I recently installed IV on my PC with all the fixes and graphic enhancement mods so I can play through it again so i'll finally do that before VI drops.
>>738243187>sell out to PS+ 2 month laterkek
>>738243187he's so ugly and annoying
>>738243235>Was it the ballad of gay tony?Yes.
>>738228057This shit looks like Koikatsu.
>>738229230>You’re talking about the livelihoods of tens of thousands of peopleHaving a comfy indoor office job with probably reasonable pay and benefits sure sounds like very privileged. Tell me why should I care and shed tears that some of these privileged people are going to have to look for new jobs or taste unemployement?
>>738228915>>738229156Yeah sadly, it will be kino but all of the other studios and gaming devs will make excuses like they did with baldurs gate instead of trying to emulate and surpass.>"Well our budget isn't nearly that big so we can't make good vidya">"Well we don't get to spend 13 years developing one game so we can't make good vidya">"Well we're a small indie studio so we can't make good vidya.">"Well vidya doesn't have to be good to actually be good vidya so get lost gamer!"etc
>>738229230I'm afraid you'll get no choice in the matter.
>>738237438How did he get away with this
>>738237438Damn he is proof that men are the ones who actually hit the wall now he looks like a bald little deformed goblin
>>738244806>now
>>738219379it's doable if they release it on PC day 1
>>738244903It will be triple if they let the normie horde double dip thoughI just hope they're not lame and refuse to cross or transfer data between VI console and VI PC like they did with RDR2.
There's no way this game is profitable even at 30mil copies sold or something stupid like that unless they flip the switch and turn it into some multi media garbage slop dispenser with cheap movies and tv series and all that shit That's the model western AAA seems to be going towards anyway
>>738245221You have to stop focusing on box sales and remember where the majority of their income came from with GTA V.Shark CardsThere's a major reason they spent millions of dollars buying out FiveM btw
>>738245275I am taking that into account though maybe I'm underestimating the money that extra stuff makes.
>>738245434They're basically building the adult version of roblox with project R.O.M.EIt's also silly how much top UGC content creators make, the ones behind the most popular game modes in fortnite make millions a month.
>>738240676>except it's less cringe and more funIt's not more fun when the combat is nonexistent.
>>738244806Women hot the wall at 20 these days.
>>738232730>The gameplay is terrible and always had beenSo why do faggots, normies and console warriors get triggered whenever I say "I don't like GTA/RDR because the gameplay is bad"?
>>738233804Plenty of games sell better on PC than console. GTA doing worse on PC just means PC gamers don't care about GTA as much as the console guys.
>>738226879not if it's 100 bux like they're alluding to.
>>738245713>women hit the wall at 20>men look like they're 30 at age 20what is wrong with this generation?
>>738219379is nigg culture still popular?
>>738245930Yes
>>738245713I'm in my mid 30's and people still think I'm 20 something.
>25 million day 1>for a game that may or may not be 100 bucks MINIMUMI don't know man. It not impossible I guess?????
>>738219379Jew cuck doesn't know how business work.Take 2 investment isn't a short term thing. Obviously they don't expect the game sales to break even with the budget. The profits will go as the time goes on and people spend trillions on shark dollars in gta online. Anyone thinking this will be consider a flop if it doesn't generates profits bigger than it's budget first week is a fucking retard.
I just had a thought. How fucking big of a download will this game be?
>>738241546>GTA 6 >60 dollars on launchLMAO anon wake up, what year do you think this is?
>>738246503RDR2 is 119 GB so I assume slightly more than that probably in the 125-135 range.
I think it'll be fun.I enjoyed the gameplay of Saaros and no story could possibly be worse than that
>>738219507Niggers anon,its always them
>>738226879part of me can see that happening but at the same time the other part of me doubts it because of current economy... people had more $ to waste on videogames back in 2018 iirc
>>738219379im not buying it because i wont support video games that endorse n*gg** behavior
>>738219574Units
>>738221489Are you implying that the only people who are gonna GTA6 are the people who still actively play GTA5?A 13 year old game?
>>738226879Anyone who thinks GTAVI is not selling 50 million copies in the first week is delusional. It and TES6 are probably some of the most anticipated mainstream games in the world. The goy will feast on the slop.
>>738219379considering there's 80 million PS5+Xbox consoles (incl base 5, Pro, S and X), i find it unlikely
>>738220341It's fun, simple as.
>>738220702where is the propaganda you mentally ill faggot?
>>738230434Contrarianism and an accelerationist mindset that if GTA 6 flops it will kill the AAA industry.
>>738225980>And it will be the best selling system of the year, Switch 2 has no chance at all.kek
>>738250858>kill the AAA industrygoodno such thing as AAA games anymore asnyway
Have we even been shown official gameplay yet?
>the barrierstation selling 25 million games at launch all by itself>the game is likely to be 90+ dollar a popI really hope they crash and burn at this point. the porch pirate simulator shouldn't be the face of video games.
>>738230434>gtaSA was shit>4 was average>5 was shit and it was released every 5 years while a bunch of 5 years old praise it like the second coming of christthe whole>lets make the whole game about niggers in a place when its only 2% niggersdoesnt help
>>738251393Trailer 2 has pieces of gameplay scattered in it, looks cinematic but it's just gameplay using a cinematic camera.
>>738219379they would sell 25 million copies at $200 price tag, at regular price they'll hit 50 million copies day one.
>>738219379Make the game actually pay to win. Sell a limited number of cars that can only be bought with premium currency.Greed has no upper limit.
>>738221665Imagine Sleeping Dogs but better, adult story and no censorship. I will fucking pay 100€.
>>738221775You think Rockstar put the game above 70$ just to deal with oil prices?
Who cares? Only total sheep will play this.
>>738219379>retard talks a bunch of retarded shit: the articleBehead videogame journalists
>>738220341I think approximately 40% of the people saying they want to play it and the rest of the 60% are horribly lonely peer-pressured people who just want to be in the in crowd.But what do I know. I'm just a loser on 4chan.
>>738235831low iq. You have low iq
>>738252393you are not special fag

>>738249868Well said goy
>>738219670i just checked grok. 95 million PS5s have been sold worldwide. I can easily see ~10-15 million of those ps5 owners buying a copy, and add in whatever xbox has. Don't forget, Palworld sold 15million on steam alone. Cuckstar aren't worried about that, they'll sell 15million easily on steam, even if the games average. Even in the extremely unlikely scenario where they don't make the big sales-target on console, they will make another massive windfall on pc, and they'll make passive income shilling their in-game currency bullshit forever.
>>738219379Reminder that Jason "liking big booba anime girls makes you a pedo" Schrier intentionally waited for the Blizzard CEO's rape victim to kill herself before covering her story in his '"serious journo'" career-establishing article, just so that we wouldn't have to pay royalties to her.
