An empty box.You're paying for an empty fucking box.https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1781734295632649.webm
this has been standard for a while you're only bitching now because "popular new game BAD" like a typical /v/npc
what about pc and switch 2?
>>741789910And it's 100$ too. Hope I see the same energy I saw when Nintendo made mario kart 80$ and keycards
>>741789910that's where I draw the lineI'm outnot buying it, not playing itfuck this
Not even a dummy disc. With the most AAA game going discless expect physical to be extinct by the next gen.
>>741789910Absolutely fucking grim. Cockstar Gays perma crocking the physical game medium with this anti consumer bullshit.
>>741789910It's just to combat leaks.They're going to release a version with a disc in the future, right?
>>741790603>They're going to release a version with a disc in the future, right?>....right?
>>741790603Will they fuck. They just didnt want to pay the literal pennies it costs to make discs.
>>741789910Someone leaked a picture of the physical edition already
>code in a boxMeaning you can never resell the game and you're stuck with a plastic dust catcher.
>>741790603>It's just to combat leaks.Nah.
>>741790785>make fresh PSN account>PC version releases>sell PS5 and your PSN account with GTA VI on it for 5 dollars less than retail>get a million messages of people wanting to buy itpretty easy to work around
that isnt the bad part.this shit has happened so many times already with other gameswhats bad is them making you have to pay $20 extra for the ultimate edition to use barbers, clothes stores, vehicle shops and tuners now
>>741789910>muh physical mediaWhat fucking century is this? We've got this thing called "broadband" now, maybe you've heard of it.
>>741790851>just sell your platform of choice This is what the Jews want and buy again.
>>741790903>hurricane happens>cuts off internet while your using generator>no net for a bit>can't play your games cause you have to download them alllol
>>741789910This is the ultimate cuck experience.Basically you're buying an empty box to satisfy autism. There's nothing physical to be had here. When you lose your account or they ban you or something happens, you fucking lost. Literally MONEY STOLEN.
>>741789910games haven't been physical for 20 years now (your ps3 needs to be updated every single year or it will literally not play any games anymore)this is just skipping the gaslighting
>>741790951I guess since I don't give af about consoles I'm not a slave to my shitty PSN account for "achievements" or whatever.I also do this with blizzard games, I only used my bnet account for my main WoW account it allowed me to resell shitty D4 after I got suckered into buying it for 90 dollars, I dropped the price by 5 bucks and someone bought it immediately.Same with anything ncsoft related when they use to sell boxed mmorpgs, I put aion on a seperate account so I could easily sell my account without losing all my games on my old account.
>>741791141It's not about being a slave to achievements its about having to sell your account and console to get rid of a game you finished. This is Jewish trickery and nothing more.
>>741790069>this has been standard for a while you're only bitching now because yapyapyapHow much estrogen are you on, faggot?
>>741791118I can install my PS3 physical games on every single PS3 I want with as many accounts as long as I have the disc.That fucking code only works onelce. Literally fucking once and then gone.
>>741791220you don't have to, retard you could keep the console and just sell the account, my advice is for people buying a console just for GTA before the better PC version releases.Also I agree with you but as I said in my original post this is the work around, I prefer having physical discs.
You'll never get to experience this again.
>>741791415this can't be real.
>>741789910>You're paying for an empty fucking boxI'm not since I'm not going to buy this at all.
>>741791415>touch box and disc one time before you pick the install files on PS3 option when inserting disc which in the end made you only ever touch the disc once before it gathered dust for 13 years somewhere.
>>741791415I read the box says 18.Is that little person in the video 18?
They did this so some dickhead who works at GameStop can't get it early and leak the whole story.
>>741790892wait really? source?
>>741791785Look at all this amazing content we intentionally ripped out of the base version!
>>741791691why not release the physical later then?like indie games do?
>>741789910I'm not paying for anything because I shant be buying it. Buy yes, it's quite Jewish.
>>741789910How much does it cost for a stupid disk?
>>741791964A few cents per disc
>>741790603Why the fuck would they do that? In order to have any kind of profitability, they need onine whales, and that shit needs to be kept up to date. Disc players are nothing to them.
>>741791860And you can't even show this to other players because it's for single
>>741791860This is fucked. The moment everyone accepts this as normal (and faggot mass consumers will), there will be no going back. Ultimate Editions are going to be solidified as the new Standard and 80 dollar versions will be purposely and permanently incomplete
>>741792487erm your forgetting me and my friends are going to post our lucias on r/gta!
>>741791860>they're paywalling fucking in-game store accessoh man online is gonna be such fucking kikery
>>741789910no i'm not, i'm buying the digital version like literally everyone else on earth
>>741792643You're not a AAA slop eater, so it won't affect you
>>741792368>thinks you can't update a game that was initially installed from a disc or that uses a disc for proof of purchase You're either trolling or have never seen how console games have worked over the past 2 decades
Who cares. Im tired of this contrarian bullshit.
zoomers are too new to remember that back before the PS4 era you used to be able to buy a game, play it to completion, then sell it to a store like gamestop to get most of your money back. either that or just rent it for a month for $10. everything moving to digital has made this impossible because youre buying a licence, not a game. you will own nothing and be happy.
>>741791860>Vercetti EstateAre we back in the 3D universe now?
>>741789910but does it come with a poster
Look, the whole "we care about physical games" on consoles thing is dead, it's gone and it's never coming back.No, going digital didn't reduce prices, yes, modern consoles are just going to be locked down PCs, no, you don't actually give a fuck, because if you own a console you ARE going to buy GTA, it's as guaranteed as the sun rising in the east.Personally, I'll wait until I can pirate it.
>>741790069>his has been standard for a whilenintendo 1st party games are full on cartridge
Why is no lawyer jumping on this?Do we really just not have consumer laws anymore?
>>741791860>chaptersOh no no no
>>741789910So if the box is just full of air.... technically we all already have it? Look on your desk, it's right there. Wow! Didn't even have to pay shit for it.
>>741792994No, they're all gone. Give up.
>>741790069Dies slowly after watching your family suffer.
>>741790069fpbp
>>741791415Parents like this should face criminal charges and fines.
Physical media is a meme for contrarian zoomers and faggots who can't let go of the past .
this genuinely has the ability to turn me off pre ordering and even buying the game now untill the multiplayer was outi was thinkin about day one but then the 80 had no content so i was thinking about the £100now im not thinking about getting it at all and skipping the singleplayer entirely becaus eI WANT A DISCim NOT digital customer!I will not buy a game without a fucking discand because digital games never come down in price im just gonna play the free online game which has the content missing from the singleplayerlike the endure bike the haircuts and the customs shops
>>741792487No the streetshitting gooners are absolutely going to spam that ugly mutt here for months on end.
>>741792927Or maybe like a full cloth map?That used to just be standard fare, it just came with the box as an extra, along with the fully-illustrated manual, multiple physical discs, thank you letter from the development team, etc
>>741790603collectors edition maybe
>>741792994>consumer laws anymoreMaybe in 30 years, lmao. Stop killing games was an extremely reasonable ask and it turned into a floppy donkey dick.
>>741793039Give up on what?I accept your terms either way.
>>741793174Get fucked, Rabbi.
>>741789910YOU ARE ALL FAGGOTSIn one month Rockstar of David will say "we listen to the fans" and announce a regular physical version for $120 and all you retards will lap it up.Also, here's a new leaked screenshot
so thats the type of people being excited for GTA6all gta6 post should be banned for underages
>>741790603Nope.You voted for this
>>741793486No, this is the type of person excited for GTA6.
>>741793486thats the ps3 version meaning this is old as fuck hes probably almost 20 now

>>741791860>hey! PC gamers! FUCK YOU.>w-what do you mean you’re not gonna buy?>wh-what do you mean you’re just gonna pirate the premium edition!? NOOOOOOO!
>>741793165yeah i thought i was badly raised and too obsessed with video games but i've never reacted that emotionally to a game i was incredibly excited for
>>741789910Why can't Rockstar be more like Netflix?
>>741791860The $100 "Ultimate Edition" sounds more like the real Standard Edition and the "Standard Edition" sounds like the Go Fuck Yourself Cheapskate edition.
>>741794075Your typing words but you're not actually saying anything. What's it like being so moronic you can't even string a coherent argument together?
>>741794103It's abuse. No child should be this deranged over an adult entertainment product.If they were presenting him a dildo it would be no different.

>>741790069"You're only doing it now because it's popular like you always do every time" has to be some of the most retarded shit I seen this week, good one.

>>741794343i know right? i mean, where's the little girls?

>>741789910>You're paying for an empty fucking box.No, I'm paying for hundreds of hours of trannies and niggers lecturing me about the patriarchy and white supremacy while I follow my GPS route to the next objective, ergo, I win.
>>741789910Wow fuck them then. I thought for sure they would do like RDR2 and include multiple discs. I hope the ps6 actually supports m-disc, but its likely going to be digital only faggotry.
>>741794351This week?NPC cattle say this exact shit daily here.
The game will sell, millions, normies don't care.
>>741790603>They're going to release a version with a disc in the future, right?Yes but ONLY if you buy the digital version first
When will you fuckers learn this has been the standard ? Atop that the real issue is them releasing for shitty consoles first rather than a decent PC version. If you wanted to be mad about things, you could have been back when Valve tried to allow digital game resale TWICE and every AAA said >You do this, we pull all our titles immediately. but that would require remembering things before the newfaggot tourist incursion.TakeTwo is pretty much one of the greediest motherfuckers how are any of you surprised?>They killed Red Dead Online because it didn't make infinity dollars immediately despite it being way more interesting than the shark card shithole that was GTAO (especially if you weren't playing user mods). >No PC release day 1 for VI>Lots of content cut out to sell at the "real' $100 pricepointThere's way more to be mad about as opposed to some sort of >I thought I'd really get the entire game on 7 blu rays and no online patches or updates at all guys! brain damage.
>>741790069No it hasn't and especially not from Rockstar unless you count shitty switch ports of games it shouldn't even be attempting to run.
>all these trends that have been going for years and even decades>act surprised when the biggest and most shilled video game series ever copies themAre you people retarded? Why do you want to pretend so hard that this series is supposed to be some epic saviour of video games and not just the biggest mainstream slop imaginable? Oh wait. I get it. It's because (You) love mainstream slop...
>>741794140Why do people keep saying this? You’re just normalizing paying extra money for useless shit
>to jail for sharing 01010 numbers>ilegals rape and kill people and walk free after a few hours in custody
>>741794397>IT'S EITHER GTA OR LOLI HENTAI WITH NO INBETWEENThat's an odd absolute to hold in your heart, anon.
>>741789910Well, guess I’m not buying it.Will have to pirate it eventually
>>741790603I would hope so considering they had actually been pretty good at releasing real physical copies in the past, even if they needed multiple discs.
>>741794478It will break sales records but also be so shitty it mindbreaks the industry.I cannot be convinced otherwise. Especially not now.
>>741789910next they'll announce the game costs 100$ and single player has a battle pass.
>>741794526>It's okay because it's normal for themDie in a fire after watching your family burn first.
>>741790851All this effort just to make 75 bucks? Really?
>>741793554W Speed cringing at niggers on the beach
>>741794526when will you learn that ps5 owners and console users are NOT pc faglords?we DEMAND physical discswe bought a console to PLAY discswe DO NOT CARE about steam or youre piece of shit russia chink servers or modswithout the disc gta has ZERO value to the majority of owners and users of teh main platform the game only comes out on!DISC or NO BUYALWAYS till 2030 2040 2050 2060WE. DO.NOT WANT. DIGITAL. GAMES.WE DONT CARE HOW HARD THAT IS FOR DEVSWE DO NOT WANT IT
>>741794564You are not superior or clever and are infact a total retard that doesn't understand the point. It's quite funny.
I'm a Rockstar Games Glazers but this has pissed me the FUCK off. The company that has always had premium releases going essentially digital only.Grim.
The only way you'll be able to own GTA6 is by pirating it on PC
>>741794585Pretty crazy hypothetical right?Any nation that would tolerate such nonsense would be cowardly loser faggots that deserve it for sure. Good thing you made it all up as a joke.
>>741794823This
>>741794823This. I have PC and PS5. I have the console for the sole purpose of OWNING the disc. GTA 6 is a hard pass for me at launch. I'll wait for PC if it's digital only.
>>741794579because that is exactly what it is intended to be. Rockstar knows that people would bitch and moan if the game was even more expensive than the goddam $80 (not even $70, certainly not even $50/60 etc) but they REALLY want to sell a version for $100 and normalize that being the base price. So this is what they do.They cut out so much >its only cosmetic guys its only optional why are you upset its only cars and hairstyles and weapons and other things you may enjoy in the game for a poorfaggot edition, and then only include it in the "real" $100 game they intend for you to buy., Now they have plausible deniability >Oh out game doesn't cost $100, see here's an $80 version that only comes in black and white and looks like a PS1 version and has a single gun and a single car.. but its available to you! You CAN play the game, see we're not greedy YOU are greedy not wanting to pay for the superior version!
I will never understand why people thread GTA like the second coming of christ, it hasn't been good since san andreas and even then it was just an alright game
>>741794823>we DEMAND physical discsNo you don't.You're going to buy this no matter what.
name 5 other AAA game sthat released digital only and there sale numbersnot pc games not steam game si mean ps5 digital only gamesshow me those 5 AAA games and their ales numbers
>>741794982Marketing and easily socially pressured thirdies
>>741794989>"""buy"""I will play it though.
>>741794829Why doesn't this happen in any other hobbies?>like cars>new car comes out>go to forums cry about how new car sucks blablabalblaBecause they don't fucking care. They just will buy something else. But for you? You actually WANT to play this game and now YOU'RE CRYING because you can't have it or something. Grow up and stop being such a consoomer.
>>741794823>without the disc gta has ZERO value to the majority of owners and users of teh main platform the game only comes out on!Not him but I don't even know anyone who buys discs for their consoles anymore. Sony sells a version of the PS5 without the disc drive for this reason. >DISC or NO BUYThe game will still be the highest grossing entertainment product of all time. Rockstar literally doesn't care if a few thousand autists don't buy the game. Besides, you need to make an online account and sign in before the console even lets you do anything. That's why I got rid of the PS4 when it came out.
>>741794823>1 guy holding a sign out in the desertDon't worry bro I'm sure they'll release a "physical" physical copy just for you.
>>741795128>Sony sells a version of the PS5 without the disc drive for this reason.show me sony sale sof a digital only release that is a console exclusive also show me the sales numbers of the discless ps5 vs the ps5
>>741792368To make another billion dollars from gullible retards that bought Skyrim like 5 times (it’s me btw)
>>741794823
>>741794823I pity the people naive enough to think Rockstar gives a shit.
>>741794204Soulless
>>741795128>The game will still be the highest grossing entertainment product of all time.wrong. until today it was the highest grossing entertainment product of all timenow its te highest grossing entertainment product of all time -1
>>741794823This. So much this. Finally, someone said it.
At least you get SOMETHING in the box with a game key card. You're literally just paying for the box with this.
>>741789910Pretty standard for disc-based games now. I hate faggots who are "I own this game" just because they have a piece of plastic with a download code and physical DRM.
>>741795331Brave and stunning
>>741795272you renember how that episode ends dont you?
>>741795078Good luck pirating this on your PS5.
>>741794823>we bought a console to PLAY discsBut the discs are basically DRM now. They're not like the discs of old that had the full game, they copy the game onto your system, act as a DRM, and tell the servers to download a 40GB update onto it.
If they are too damn cheap to manufacture discs, why waste money on making amd shipping empty cases no one will buy?
>>741794391>>741794329>>741794275>>741794232Not ONE of you can actually give me a reason why physical is better. You don't even give a shit, you're just parroting some twitter account. If you actually believed in what you were saying it wouldn't be so bad, but you prop up this idea of physical media then do nothing to stand by it or explain why it's so good.
>>741794756Thank you for your example of illiteracy. >>741794823Yes yes we know you'll accept any slop. You don't want to control anything, you sit nicely in the console cuck chair and let your platform owner plow your wife. And you'll do the exact same thing here. The "physical games" you've been buying for well over a decade have been chipped away bit by bit by mostly greed and also a degree of technical necessity. Your console daddy gives you a useless disc with nothing on it , installs the game to your hard drive, and then patches it, updates, and says what you're allowed to do with it. If you dare to raise a hand against it, they ban your entire system and you have to buy another one. Pretending this is some sort of last straw is fucking laughable and requires multiple kinds of brain damage to realize that you're not only being boiled in your crab pot (the one you happily crawl into so long as it has a fucking CONSOLE WARRIOR (TM) logo on the outside) but things don't operate like its the 90s anymore yet you'll fall over yourself to throw money just to cosplay that you do. They'll give you a fake, disc shaped pacifier on the end of their dick, you'll suck it ceaselessly and throw money for the privilege.
>>741795357how many games came out for the ps5 only this year that had a pysical release with no disc in the box?ill wait
>>741795397Yea, the Chinese steal GTA's formula for success and spread it to every platform on Earth.
the only good thing about gta6 is that lucia kinda looks like charliand i LOVE playing as a girl in videogames.. but the no pc release is so icky
>>741794982It's the same for 3D Mario games.
>>741795446>why is betteryour retarded jew ass can't steal it from me unless you enter my househow that sounds for you retard?
>>741789910This is because jeets cannot be trusted to leak it again
>>741795559I just don't want it to be weebshitSleeping Dogs was fine, Yakuza leans too far but it has the aestheticit shouldn't be hard to develop an asian gta-like that isn't fucking weebshit omgrather play india and both of brazil's gta-clones before playing that cartoon bullshit
>>741795662what's the last game you bought that works like that?
Wasn't it stated months ago that a disc version would come,but probably not at launch?
>>741794982What else are people going to do with their lives? Find Religion?
>>741790115Game Key Carts are actually the solution to this sort of shit. GTA is a one time use code, meaning you can't give it away to a friend after getting bored of it or sell it back to a game store, whereas with the key cartridge you could do either.Also PC dropping physical due to Valve conning the market is a long term unending tragedy that shouldn't ever be replicated.
The modern consolefag does not give two fucks about physical media, if you think they do it's because you're in immense denial.
>moved into a new building with no fibre connection>ever game is getting bigger and bigger filesize with no physical diskit's gonna take me 2 weeks to download this shit
>>741790603>It's just to combat leaksWhoever even thinks that this is the reason should have their right to vote revoked, as they don't have the mental capacity to have the slightest bit of critical thinking.
>>741790069I bought a game with a disc last month.
>>741795678Why would Rockstar be nervous about the game leaking? Smells of low confidence.
>>741794823I'm fine with the push for digital-only for a multitude of reasons that I have given up on explaining.

>>741795856I don't own any gen 9 consoles because I'm not retarded.The only one I would even consider is a Switch 2.
>>741795469I'm not reading all that shit, you sub-human midwit retard. Go fuck yourself to death, you actual autistic moron.
>>741795446None of those anons, but i only do physical because i want my game library completely independent of the internet and hard drives holding all access to something i bought. If im going digital, im not paying for the inconvenience.

>>741795967you don't need a disc for that, besides>tornado>earthquake>water damage>fire
>>741792720Missed the point. None of that ties into rockstar's objectives. They don't want disk proof of purchase. They want pure live service as much as humanly possible
>>741796095how relevant are these in the northwest of uk?
Even if they released a disc are you LARPers going to pretend you're not going to play with an online connection requires to download the trillion updates this game is going to get over its life? And that a launch version of the game would be worth anything past the first month when it gets a flood of patches?Consolefags are holding onto the last bit of faux ownership they think they have and it's hilarious
>>741794132this guys face pisses me off
Look at the shills defending a code in a box. Pathetic little subhumans.
>>741789910Why do Brit cucks loves GTA so much? Is it cause it's their only way to think how it would be to live in the US?
>>741792989Except they're not and are digital downloads and not the actual game, kill yourself sheep.
>>741796239youre in a thread for a game thats not even announced on your platform you massive whiney faggot
It makes /v/ seethe, so it's the right thing to do.
>>741796305hes austrailian you absolute mongoloid
>>741796239I've been pretty harsh on some of the guys in this thread but I still have my 360 and the 360 copy of GTA 5 and I can still play the game. Most of the updates were online only stuff and they just added a couple of vehicles to singleplayer but that stopped shortly after heists came out. Launch GTA 5 wasn't Assassins Creed Unity.
>>741795469>technical necessity.Not an excuse when shipping with multiple discs and data compression is a lost science unless you are Nintendo and the fact mDisc should have been utilized already.
>>741796287>Pathetic little subhumans.Sounds like v
>>741789910This is just the natural progression, no AAA game nowdays comes complete out of the box. Even indie games often get significant updates that change the game.
>>741795602they look absolutely nothing alike
>>741796314That's wrong snoygger
>>741796318It's not available for purchase on your own platform per your own consolefag rules, you're only renting the license, but unlike you, I can still download and play every single game I got through steam, your PS3 and 360 servers don't even exist anymore, and it's only a matter of time before the PS4 and Xbone cease to exist
>>741791860
>>741795128>Sony sells a version of the PS5 without the disc drive for this reason.i thought it was because there's no games to put in the console anyways
>>741796679*Only on Windows 11 and supported Linux distributions
>>741796614they look the same to me
>>741796659Explain how it's wrong. I'll wait.
>>741796786lol fair point
>>741795128>Sony sells a version of the PS5 without the disc drive for this reason.youve got it backwards.sony sells a version of the ps5 WITH a disc drive for this exact reason!
>>741795998Popularity of certain titles is in no way shape or form a valid retort to that post. Retard.
>>741795787I mean crimson desert and the switch 2 did have day 1 patches to even function for that exact reason (supposedly).
Are people blaming Nintendo for.this yet?
>>741791415>shaking to test for loose discmy man
>>741792897we should never have left it in the first place. it was a retarded decision, just like killing klebitz
>>741796095I will take my chances with that over trusting corporations
>>741791415I never did, I had to sneak out and buy it without my parents knowing like a crack addict, since they were really agaisnt this specific brand of videogame violence
>>741796516The technical necessity side is how games are updated and often have some degree of online components primarily, but >just put it on multiple discs is limited partially by technology in that games are getting larger and larger and that even if you DID use multiple discs, the read speed of BluRay is not sufficient to stream the content at the level anymore. Remember when Snoys were crying about how the PS5 had some insane SSD that PC wouldn't match in a decade? Obviously a lie, but there's a difference between loading the same thing off a spinning piece of plastic, a HDD, and a SSD. Of course the bigger issue is between ceaseless greed and the "experience". They don't want to pay to put games on 5+ fucking discs or whatever whne some new AAA UE5 game is well over 200GB or more. Also, there's a whole generation who are used to only seeing discs as install medium and despite their MAH DISCS PHYSICAL PHYSICAL whine, would shit a brick (though still not do anything about it) if they had to deal with massive load times to accommodate this and then deal with "Please insert disc 2". Furthermore, developers and platform owners don't want to see this on one platform as decidedly inferior when on another (definitely PC) there's seamless loading and local install etc. That's part of why even all the physical discs are mostly just installers and DRM keys where you still have to get your console game to get the day 1 update and then anything online to play, or at very least have to sit and install properly. So its a number of issues together really, but even aside all the technical stuff, the corporate overlords are not going to change production to take fuckloads of discs, use new more expensive recording technology etc.. just to keep a few people deluded about spinning plastic happy, especially if the normalfag will be upset if the game actually loaded entirely from that plastic thanks to the delays.
>>741789910So what? Nintendo started it with Mario Kart World.
>>741789910Then this means the whole PS store is gonna crash when the game comes out and no one will be able to play it.
>>741793554why do I keep seeing this nigger so much online?
>>741796239Only shit games need updates. My consoles have never been online.
>>741790603>They're going to release a version with a disc in the future, right?Nope.If you have a problem with that, then your only choice is to vote with your wallet. It won't do much though, because more than enough goycattle will buy it anyway.
>>741797332this is the truthname one japanese made game that didnt come out perfectly on disc with zero errors
>already seeing footlocker saying you should be grateful it isn't MORE expensiveWhat compels people to behave like this
>>741791415This is me and I still have physical copies on Xbox 350, PS3 and PS4. Come get me jews.
>>741790069You actually think this shit works? You stick out like a sore thumb
Guess I won't be playing it then
>>741796963The fact that i can play them off the cart without ever going online. You are thinking of game key shit which Nintendo doesn't do unless you are a cheap, lazy cunt named game freak.
>>741795128>Besides, you need to make an online account and sign in before the console even lets you do anything. That's why I got rid of the PS4 when it came out.That is completely BS. My ps4 and 5 new out of the box have never been online.
>>741795981Yet zoomsters are lamenting the lack of physical media and returning to retro consoles.
>>741791565GTA is safer for a child than roblox
>>741789910i won't buy it if there's no disc, rockstar can eat shit. i'm not gonna give them money regardless, i was gonna buy it used, but now i can't
>>741794823>We DEMANDWho's we
>>741798521People who care about vidya.
>>741798553If you cared for vidya you wouldn't care for AAAA shlock targetted at masses who'll buy it digitally
>>741798521THE REVOLUTIONWE WILL CHOP OFF OUR DICKSAND BUY THE SLOP ANYWAY
>>741795919It's okay man we'll print a copy onto a disc just for you.
>>741789910I really wish this game would bomb. I have never understood the supposed appeal of these games, at least RDR1/2 were novel in that there aren’t that many cowboy games but the open world thug simulator is played out.I wish this game would bomb hard so the entire industry would die. These smug assholes need to be taught the lesson of icarus.
>>741789910So did they give a reason why they're doing that and if they'll ever make a disc version later? I read it's to combat leaks, but once the launch is over, what's stopping them from making proper physical editions?
>>741797530Pussy-ass cowardly citizens that pay for it anyway.
>>741790603>Releases disc version>Need to download patches>Patches are as large as the base install
>>741796179You're not really making a point. The disc versions of GTA 5 and RDR 2 still have the Online and the live service. It being available on a disc doesn't do anything to cancel that out
>>741798838you have to look at these games from the mechanical aspects of them to understand their success has little to do with the "crime simulator" aspectit's more like:>game gives you a big world to interact with>easiest way to interact with it>drive and shootthis narrows you down to games where you play as cops or criminals for the most partsometimes even bothit just fits the best for the gameplayit's not a necessity for open world games and sandboxes to have, ubisoft have messed around with it a lot, but primarily, you'll be driving, you'll be shooting
>>741799019boy I cant wait to have an entire console just for this game in the year 2051 maybe
how do you expect them to fit what's probably a half a terabyte game on a disc? Is there some kind of disc technology I've never heard of?
>>741790892you are an illiterate retard
>>741799217Actually, yes, it's called m-disc
>>741799217how is that the consumers problem?do you stop selling massive trucks in usa because teh size of their garage?
>people make fun of me for still buying CDs and DVDsDont run to me when you cant stream your shit anymore and own nothing
Look I don't have a console but why are people surprised by this? Didn't most game already have no discs in the past decade?
>>741799347name one AAA game that onl y came out on ps5 not pc and had a digital only versionnow look up its sales
show me the top 5 digital only release console gamesdo it i dare you
>>741794823Yeah no anon
>>741799336>DVDSure enjoy your 480p
>>741799347digital only games on ps5 are extremely rare theres been like 2 last year
>>741794132this video is gayer than actual gay porn
>no physical edition>$80 "standard" edition with cut content>$100 for the actual standard editionI'll wait until the 50% off sale.
>>741794823explain to me why you retards are still paying to play online then
>>741791565you got bullied as a kid LMFAO
>>741795559chinks are incapable of making a video game that isn't complete garbage, usually because all they make is gacha
>>741797216That was the full game on the actual cart at least. Fuck off.
>>741799217>half a terabyte game on a disc?Oh no 2 ultra high capacity blu rays discs!
>>741795765>PCJust back up your shit retard its no different from having a disc
>>741799837i pay to get FREE digital games every month because if i didnt get them free i would literally never ever buy or play themthe same goes for teh 900 digital game savaialble to subscribersi would never ever buy any of those games which is why i pay the subscription to try like 2 minutes of them allevery big game that i play a lot i ave the disc version ofmostly because big AAA games that are played alot NEVER COME DOWN IN PRICE and I WOULD NEVER BUY DIGITALLY
>>741799837the price of my psn+ subscribtion from 2015 to now doesnt cover teh cost of one graphics card you fat pc sweating mong
>>741799217Same way as the PS1 era. With multiple discs.
>>741790785NOOOO I CANT GET MY $5 OF STORE CREDIT FROM GAMESTOP!!!
>>741791564That's not how disk games work on PS3 you retard lol, you need the disk to play
>>741800403This but unironically
>>741791691They would lose zero sales if that happened but will lose more than zero by not having the disc.
>>741800403Yes, but this also means you can't buy a used copy anywhere. Your only option will be to pay $80 for a new copy, and after a couple of years we'll get an occasional sale.
>>741791860>67Lmao not even trying to hide that this shit is for little kids.
>>741790603>be parallel dimension>gta 6 released on disc>requires constant online connection to play
ive asked this multiple times across multiple threads and i still never get an answerSHOW ME ONE (((1))) successful AAA game that launched digital only on ps5 f2p doesnt count as they arent asking £80name one single full price videogame in the last 5 years that only came out digitally on ps5. name it. what are its sales?
Its a shame I can't even expect this game to fail.
>>741789910>>741790069
>>741789910Game is DOA.
>>741800815Does any of that matter? Supposedly statistically this game is going to be a massive outlier and predicted to change the industry overnight. It'd be great to root against it but the mainstream are demanding that it culturally reset how games as a product are defined moving forward.Oh, how I hope it fails.
>150-200GB day one size>maximum size for BD is 128gbShould have released the game with its own storage drive lel.
>>741790069>this has been standard for a whileNo? Who the fuck told you this?The only platform that currently has digital higher than physical is PlayStation because no games have been releasing on the thing.
>>741800616Not so little anymore.https://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1782327498628870.webm
>>741792368>In order to have any kind of profitability, they need onine whales,WANT TO HEAR SOMETHING FUNNY?The online whales are going to abandon it without physical because that's what they used to whale before
>>741797608>Come get me jews.They already did, peak consoomer.
>>741800815007, it has a physical disc but only the first mission works without a day one patch on PS5
>>741801027the average age of gamers is 37the game is a 18+ gamethe average gamer has a ps5 console not a ps prothe MAJORITY of ps5 owners DID NOT buy the discless version because the average ps5 owner was a ps4 owner with a huge libraryteh majority of sales and players of gta 5 are on ps5pc sales are utterly irrelavent to gta5 successthe majority of PS5 owners want a disc version of the game and especially expect it for £80
>>741794981>see here's an $80 version that only comes in black and white and looks like a PS1 version and has a single gun and a single car.. but its available to you! You CAN play the game, see we're not greedy YOU are greedy not wanting to pay for the superior version!The whole point you're trying to make is literally entirely in your head, so it doesn't work.
>>741790903you're the reason why epstein was right to call us cattle
>>741801059>maximum size for BD is 128gbIt's not 2011 anymore.
>>741789910Literally the last physical game I bought was GTAV for PS3. My Ps5 doesnt have a drive and I've never missed it.You kids are poor and you spend your time in poor person online echo chambers like reddit. I'm preordering the $100 version.
>>741801228>example of a midling b tier movie tie in game that did come out on discok?
>>741789910Capcom did something similar with Wilds, a few MB on the disc and the rest was a download. I got scammed.
>>741801450if your passing grade for physical being that it has a disc and not that it has the full game on it, you may not understand the point of physical buddy
You physically can't put a game this big on a disc. Move on gramps
If you guys need advice on how to get a job I can help.
>>741793754kek
>>741801563Yeah, their entire playerbase will be moving on.
They are so insecure about the game that they are afraid of second hand copies flooding the market as soon as week 2. That's why they only made digital versions and push you to preorder the ultimate one. The dalayed PC launch is because the 2 hour steam refund.
>>741801545it actually isbecause noone here is denying teh updates or the constant online or the patch updateswhat we dont want is a fucking psn codepsn codes are NOT the same as discs regardlessi can take and use my disc in any playstation anywhere and can use and sell or keepa psn code is not something i can use across multipl accounts on the same cosoleits not something i can give out and works repeatedly otherwise everyone n the world could use my code to play their gametherefor eit only works ONCEif i have a disc i can use it whenever and where everi take the disc and on any accountTHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE
>>741801623yeah people are gonna vote with their wallets this game is going to crash and burn!we are legion! we never forget!
>>741791860I don't like this because on PC and consoles, to verify that you own the Ultimate Edition and its content, you'd have to go through a series of online checksSo this will be a single-player game, but with heavy online DRM, perhaps on par with Denuvo, that Rockstar will never remove.At least with GTA V, you can play it completely offlineThis also means saying goodbye to single-player mods
>>741797306Thats speed dumbfuck
>>741801563learn to optimize saars
>>741801781Lets just ignore the fact that every digital only game has sold fuck all compared to games that sell physically.
>>741800000Checked. Idk why everyone forgets about this. Just put your game files on a disc
>>741801751I GOT A PSN CODE WITH MY PS5 FOR HORIZON 2IT HAD A FUCKING EXPIRY DATE IN THAT SAME YEAR
>>741801948hey man you already convinced me gta6 is going to sell like shit bro
>>741789910I am not buying it then.I will wait for a PC release and pirate it.
>>741792837>look at me i'm so cool i love getting dicked by corpos, can't you tell how little i care by how much i'm shrugging? >i'm so cool for being a goy ecks dee
>>741801751if you don’t even care about having the full game on the disc what the fuck is point, that’s just a license you can trade around. Imagine your internet goes out and you plop in a game to find out you can’t even play it fully
>>741801280Well, I hope your information backs up the future of what I want for this game.
>>741802110>that’s just a license you can trade aroundand you want me to have less than that and pay $100 for the privalige?no. disc. no. buy
JUST PUT IT ON TWO DISCS THEN RETARDSEven back in the 90s games often came on multiple physical floppies/CDs, and we LIKED IT
>>741802110>internet goes out>insert gta6 disc>its starts teh game i installed years ago and play everyday without online check or connectionoh no
>>741802182nigga at that point pirate, a disc without the full game is just retarded
>>741794526>>741798679You'd have to be a retard not to believe this will be the final nail in the coffin of physical games.I feel sorry for all of you who defend this and make excuses about Valve and PC games, even though you have more freedom than the all-digital model could ever offer.On consoles, however, that’s not the case, so good luck “owning” anything, though really, you’ll never experience what a DRM-free game is like, and you fucking deserve it
>>741801430>A bluray disk to surpass BDXLlol sure
>>741802292how many ps5 only games do you emulate everyday?name them
>>741802274unless you never uninstall it you’re going to have to download that patch each time
>>741800570wait till you find out the existence of digital key reseller sites that sell them at a lower cost because they get their hands on the codes for free
>>741789910safe to say, when the people boycott, rockstar will have no choice but to change or they can kiss their business goodbye
>>741802370why the FUCK would i uninstall a 150+gb game on my 500GB ssd on my ps5?im not a fucking moron it would take hours to download againthe big games you play all the time on your ssd are te LAST games you uninstall retard
>>741795835I can just make own copy of a pirate file after all.
>>741802350well you gotta show me PS5 games worth pirating and emulating. That being said the PS5 was jailbroken so you can do that if you are so inclined. PS5 rom keys even leaks
>>741802654then play them.
>>741801840"speed dumbfuck"? What a weird nickname.
Wasn't gonna buy this gay ass nigger shit anyway.
>>741799596i'll enjoy every single bit of + the smug satisfaction of knowing netflix jews can't rip it from me when they please
>friend worked on gta vi>he tells me the game will have NTRcan't wait for the /v/ meltdown.
>>741800034>i pay to get FREE digital gamesPc fag here, I just pirate all the games I want and play online sometimes.How do you get free digital games if you pay for them?
>>741802350>how many ps5 only games do you emulate everyday?>name themThis is hilarious because there's less than 30 ps5 only games that have been released in 6 years.
are physical disc fags really using the only argument to still have discs in case of potentially installing it offline?those kind of discs went away years ago they're just a glorified DRM now, besides who the fuck is uninstalling their 100gb+ games? just get a larger SSD you fucking poorfag
>>741803219>hey whats that food you got there?>that house?>that wife?>that kid?>i just steal everything!okay? ami suppose dto.. do that too or what? what is your point?
>>741790069>typical /v/npcthat's what you are, you worthless projecting subhuman
>>741803420not them but why would you justify a full price tag for something digital? Electrons are cheap to ship and manufacture.>>741803479>steal>food analogy>being a dumb niggershiggy
>>741803420no the argument switched to the easily defendable "I dont want to use a psn code""psn codes are limited to one use""psn codes are per account""psn codes expire ""you cant buy used psn codes""I cant share this psn code"and so on
>>741797690You mean the game key shit they're doing for literally every first party title? lol
>>741803629since when did price tags change between physical and digitalit was always the same
>>741801840No "speed" is his name
>>741803951>it was always the sameno, it wasn't
>>741803951>since when did price tags change between physical and digitalabout a week after the game comes out usually
>>741790603>combat leaksyou drive around in stolen cars and shoot people. wow what a spoiler.
>>741804052>>741804071physical only went cheaper if they were used discs, but you could make the same argument with digital if you used key reseller sites like g2a but you aren't buying a used copy of the game, just a new copy that someone got it for cheaper and decided to resell it.
>>741804369show me a digital release version of a game on psn the same price as phyisical disc from amazon.ill wait
>>741792643Bud people already accepted paying for "early access". Which is a fancy way of saying the base edition of a game is a late launch.
>>741804492Not that anon but I quickly found one. 007 First Light - Specialist Edition - PlayStation 5Both are $69.99 right now
So why do you need to preorder months in advance?
>>741803420It’s insurance because if the game sucks ass (it will), you can sell it. That makes it easier to spend $80 on a game knowing that not all of it will be forever wasted.
>>741803985And it gets worse when he doesn't do anything that actually "show...speed". I mean, at first I thought he was a speedrunner or a real runner, but he's neither lol
>>741805068and? you can refund the game on Steam and use those wallet bucks for a different game.sucks being a consolefag though.
>>741789910>150 dollery doos + tip for an empty box Grim
console bros.... we were supposed to have a physical disc...
>>741793673So that you have more shit in your house
>>7418052701) GTA 6 is not coming out on Steam until 2027 or 2028. 2) His Yachtness Gabe Newell the Round only grants you two (2) hours. A modern walking simulator game usually needs more than two hours to form an opinion since most games are filled with cutscenes early on. A physical game has an unlimited trial and you don’t need to request approval from His Yachtness.
>>741794132This is barely different from physical media fags. Offline play is the only good point they have, and I haven’t been without internet in like 20 years so maybe it’s a brown thing?
>>741804052They've literally always been the same you stupid fuck, you can go look at the PS store right now and compare them yourself. Fucking weird ass.
>>741790069can it, u faggot
>>741789910>mfw gta v pc box on release with massive map, manual and two discsenjoy your dvd sleeve and fortune cookie slip you cucks
>>741801958>put game files on a disk>'in order to run gtav it must first connect to rockstar servers otherwise it wont be playable'Theres probably mods that get around it but the fags with The Resistance mod pack for Far Cry 5 demands you use a legit boughted copy
>>741790069>calling us NPC's when he consoomes the newest thing like a good goycattleFound the projecting NPC
>>741804861thats full price
>>741806707Yes, full price, the same full price, neither one is on sale and Amazon has no used copies available or cheaper ones from a different retailer. Maybe I missed what the goalpost was supposed to be
>>741789910HHAHAHHA ITS SO FUCVKING OVEEEEEEEEEER
>>741793554I'm still confused why he acted like such an animal for his early career. >inb4 "he's black"
>>741790603What leaks? What does this shit has declassified government documents or what? It's a fucking GTA game. Story will be a bad copy of some movie. There's nothing to leak.
>>741801286Your autism is showing. See, its a hyperbolic metaphor for them restricting large portions of game content, supposedly because its "unnecessary cosmetics", you know the things that people are demonstratively willing to pay for because they enjoy, to the expensive $100 version of the game, while still being able to say there's 'technically' a version of the game for 'only $80'.. You don't actually think that I believeGTAVI is only going to be in black and white with PS1 textures do you? Oh you poor thing, I'm sure there are some spaghetti O's in your future if you just ask your caretaker nicely.>>741802298Way to miss the point, written out before you. However, tourist brain can only slot things into >My side, my opinion>Other side, other opinionIf you wanted to fight for actual freedom, you'd push for freedom for digital models too, but you don't. You just want to have console faggotry wars and think that a small piece of plastic makes you somehow 'more free", even though it is only a simulacra of what it once represented decades ago when the entire game was loaded from a disc and there was no other interaction. It is never going to be like that again, for both technical development and business fuckery reasons and pretending otherwise is a waste of time. They've already been boiling the frog and all the console types have been arguing that X degrees is fine, and now X+5 degrees is what it has always been and so on, rather than getting onboard pushing back against console faggotry platforms in the first place and trying to cultivate digital resale . At least Steam and PC users tried to do that, but basically got fucked over by every publisher whining in unison . That was years ago and we ought to get on that again rather than screeching about no disc because the medium is not the issue here,its the license and if its subject to transfer and resale or not.

>>741796714Thanks bro, I finally get it now. This opened my eyes
>>741790903>What fucking century is thisits the century where they can take away your access to the game if they feel like it
>>741790603They have to eventually or I don't know how well the economy of gtao whales who keep buying the "Buy gta v for $50 and get a $60 shark code and a disc copy to flip online to get some of your money back" that no doubt has had an impact on the sales milestones of gtav will keep up when the people who buy those cheap "used" copies have to trust they won't get scammed by a cheap one time use code hasn't been used.
I want the map. And even if it doesnt have a map I will buy the empty box.
>>741790903You should try listening to a CD it will blow your mind.
>>741789910They really need to come up with something to sell cases too. Collectors editions are often too much, but I'd consider 10 extra bucks just for a case with cover, the classic GTA style map, an "in-universe" manual and maybe a piece of cheap artwork or poster. Is that really too much to ask?
>>741790069It's not standard. Nearly all PS5 games are on the disc
>>741789910Why are people shocked? This was reported months ago that there would be no physical release for the first few months after release. Basically it is how they will stop the game from leaking early.
>>741789910Did you guys forget about Strauss Zelnick want to charge games an hour
20 fucking dollars to access a VIRTUAL TATTOO SHOPlmao
>>741789910Do modern games even fit on a disc anymore?
>>741812785yes?
>>741794823So you're not going to buy literally the only console exclusive in the past 2 gens? Being a console pleb must be hell
>>741812872Aren't the biggest Bluray discs 50GB? I doubt GTA 6 will be any less than 100GB.
>>741812987I'm going to admit that I'm not sure how it works exactly, but what was on my mind was FF7 Rebirth. You have to put in the data disc first then the game disc. Idk if GTA would work the same way, but I honestly wouldn't mind if it was the same thing, or even 2 data discs
>>741812785see>>741802203How is this that difficult?>Ohhh no they have to spend 20 cents instead of 10 cents for the discs
I was gonna buy a disc ps5 and flip after but I guess im waiting a year for PC now
>>741803853>every first party titledisingenuous faggot lmao
>>741796823You must be blind and retarded then.
>>741789910And yet it's ok when Nintendo does it.
>>741790069no the fuck it hasn't, not unless you're a pcc*ck that is
>>741790851no one's buying your shitty psn account with one game lmao, certainly not for anywhere even near retail
>>741791860fucking lollmaoliterally ripping base game content out to sell back to you day one, this is what GTAfags have been been hyping up for over a decade
>>741794823>put 1s and 0s on a DVD, its physical media>put the same 1s and 0s on pic related all of a sudden its notphysical fags are just plastic addicts. The disk youre asking for is also digital
>>741815189PC Master Race, idiot.
>>741789910I wonder if they'll still put the map in it
>>741789910Worst of all we still haven't seen the gameplay of it and they're trying to make people pay $80
>>741791860I can't believe they're doing anything they can wrong, this shit is hilarious. Please have a subscription membership to play online like MMOs so I can laugh even harder.
>>741791860This is the same shit literally every AAA company has done with "Deluxe Editions" and Pre-Order Bonuses since those concepts came to be, except Rockstar is just adding stores specifically for the bonus shitI'm not trying to defend them here because this concept is awful but I can't really understand why this is getting such a massive reaction compared to the zillion other instances where it's happened and no one said anything
>>741794823YOU WILL BUY IT ANYWAY
>game in the end doesn't cost $100, it costs $80 like a big first party Nintendo title like DK and Mario Kart>collective meltdown herelike clockwork
>>741802758his name is notim portant
>>741794823>snoy boycotting anythinglol, the people who own your console are a bunch of kids and niggers, they couldn't give less of a fuck about the disc as long as they get to play the meme game
Why do so many more people care about physical releases of games then who care about games having always online DRM and shit?Even with digital only releases you generally keep and can play the game perpetually forever assuming your account doesn't get fucked over, but with shit like Fornite, Overwatch etc, there's a 100% garuntee that the game eventually becomes unplayableYet I hear way more uproar over GTA VI being digital only or about Nintendo Game Key Cards (even though you retail the ability to lend and sell those games) then I do uproar over always online stuff
>>741789910Kinda pissed that I can't just rent it now. I hate buying video games.
>>741790069anon they are doing this so you can't refund
>>741794823As a PC user, all I can say isbased
>code in a box>already sold out everywherehow do we deal with the console goycattles problem?
Not buying GTA 6 actually makes you a good person in this situation.
>>741818696whore
>>741818708digital only on console is not the same as steamthey are overpriced more than physical games and never ever go on sale everthey are full of restrictions and easily tied to something like an email you dont have or an account you dont havetheonly people defending digital are pc faglords whove never experianced digital games on a consolepc doesnt and never mattered at all because on pc you can always just steal a game the option is always there or use a different launcher or go to gog.comdigital console games are much much much worse
The physical is coming latert. insider
>>741818558No.Only if they release a physical version.
>>741819005>already sold out everywherehuh? I thought preorders start tomorrow
>>741799217
based on the promo pictures it barely looks better than gta5 enhanced
>>741796393Same difference
>>741791415"I can't wait to play the torture mission. I'm so happy!"
>>741815585Sup little zoomie. A Hard DISK(ette) is read and write. A Soft(ware) DISC is read only.
>>741799217I don't expect the whole game to be in the disc I expect the disc to have as much data as possible burned on it AND THEN act as a physical entry that allows me perpetual access to the digital data remaining as long as I insert the disc. Which then allows me to install it in whichever console I want.
I don't know about this, for me personally, owning a physical copy or even holding the disc itself in my hand is like holding gold/diamond, makes me feel like a collector of some sorts, the feeling that you truly own it in a way. I don't how I will feel going back from the store with an empty box in my hand, kinda makes it seem like I was robbed a little.
Rockstar knows that its going to get raked across the coals when some game store employee leaked it. Its going to be Last of Us 2 levels of mentally ill dog whistling. Rockstar is dogshit.
>>741797690Look up what happened with the physical edition of Xenoblade Chronicles X on switch
>>741808646It's in thailand
>>741819570You will buy it to own PCkeks because GTA VI is the "might as well be exclusive" title you have in the last decade, don't lie.
>>741789910I was driving home from college for Thanksgiving Break. GTA: San Andreas had just come out a month earlier. Halfway there, I swung into the mall parking lot on a whim. I'd decided to go to Gamestop, on the very off chance that they had a copy. This was back when they grilled into your head that you must reserve or you will never see one for months. I, of course, had not done that. I didn't think I was going to get one. But I had to check.I went there. And there it was. Several of them, in the glass behind the counter. I paid for one, and I drove home with that brand new, shrink-wrapped copy sitting on the passenger seat. I was out of my mind happy.You take little moments like that for granted. You don't cherish them because you're young, and in the moment, and mentally bogged down with a bunch of shit that won't be important 20 years later.Moments like that will never happen again.
>>741790603Probably, and I doubt it's about leaks. The game is probably not even ready to ship yet lol
>>741791118>(your ps3 needs to be updated every single year or it will literally not play any games anymore)that's bullshit, it only gets new firmware updates to update bluray keys, which allows it to play the latest movies
>>741791564zoomer retard lol
>>741789910>NOOO>I CANT BREAK INTO A WAREHOUSE TO STEAL A COPY AND POST LEAKS ONE MONTH EARLY TO RUIN THE GAME FOR EVERYBODY ONLINEGames will remain digital until morale improves. You motherfuckers literally asked for this outcome. Why are we crying about this now?
We need to kill this game. This can't be the new normal, GTA the big game is trying to usher this in.We need to disrupt the entire gaming landscape and force GTAVI's death. No one should buy or play it, on pure principle. If you do play it, only do so via piracy.
>>741824384Did I break into the warehouse, anon? Did I ask for this?
>>741824384Could you at the very, very least, debate an argument instead of making up one?
>>741791860The nickle and diming of the product says to me they know the game is going to be received as the worst GTA game.I bet the entire plot is full of gay trans woke shit. I can see white dudes en masse raging when they get to the part of the game where you have to suck the cum out of lucia's vagina that her black bull deposited. The mission is required to get the chainsaw to spawn at your crib.
>>741789910
>>741818606$80 isn't normal faggot
>>741824949Walmart niggas would absolutely steal this game the second it got off the truck. The story doesn't matter in GTA games though, so I don't know why they would be worried about spoilers.
>>741826043>The story doesn't matter in GTA games though, so I don't know why they would be worried about spoilers.This is my issue here. I don't think most of anyone cares about the story to want to avoid spoilers, and there's really nothing gameplay wise to hide. Unless Lucia pops her tits out there's no need to be so secretive
>>741825176it looks very anti-woke
>>741824883even if people do affect sales somehow, they'll just pretend it made it's money back anyway because it's Playstation exclusive, no pesky Steam charts interfering with the narrative.
>>741789910>>741790069oy vey
>>741789910wtf is the image on the right?
>>741820691What you just said is literal hieroglyphics to zoomies.
I'm a normie who doesn't keep up with this stuff these days. What does the physical ultimate edition actually ship with? V ultimate edition or whatever at least came with a ball cap, a duffle bag and a lockbox that I still keep stuff in. is it literally just a box with a code now?
Why is every single White person fat and every brown person fit and built in the screenshots?
>>741795765>Game Key Carts are actually the solution to this sort of shit.They aren't. They're the solution to owning nothing. When online services go offline your game is gone forever.>butAll digital games phone home every now and then and stop working if they can't keep phoning home.>thats what the cart is forDumb fuck
>>741801781>this image>COD fags are dumbYeah we keep telling you that.
>>741835581>All digital games phone home every now and then and stop working if they can't keep phoning home.wrong
Its retarded, but how is that different from when games required cd keys. Your cd and box is worthless without the cd key.So like, the difference between a cd key and a steam key is...the name?
>>741789910The no physical disc killed the preorder hype.I can't even believe I'm saying that because we used to consider the act of preordering as some kind of satanic thing to begin with. But walking in store to buy my GTA V copy at midnight still had the hype going likewise with RDR2.They sunk everything with no disc inclusion. It's certainly not going to sell out either so i see no point in buying the case other than just paying on a digital store at launch night and downloading.>you'll still buy itHonestly it's just a maybe at this point. They fucked up the promotional stuff for this and it killed my excitement.
>>741839504they honestly seem afraid to show ANYTHING about the actual gameplay until the very last dayI think we're looking at another cyberpunk situation here
The 20$ for literal ingame base content is insane. If that shits profitable, does anyone believe that the execs will go "okay let's leave it at that"? Fuck no. It'll be a 20$ shark card 6 months from now to install racing wheels on any car, and anyone with a vanilla copy of the game will never, ever, win a race ever again. >its just off road tiresYeah bro its just horse armorialGetFucked
>>741789910Man what is even the point of buying shit these days?
>>741789910this is gonna be a whole thing cause normalfags dont play games. physicals been totally dead for like 5 years.
>>741840835desu it is a valid argument. It's just digital content. It's just a game. It's just entertainment. You quite literally DO NOT need it, and the industry is well aware of the fact, hence the last hoozah before dipping out of the market of making games and switching to the market of having an eternal live serviceit sucks, i wish it wasn't like this, but you can really easily defend it - it's there because they are in business of making money, and people pay for it. It's not a car that you need to go to work, it's not a house that you need to live in, it's not food or water that you need to survive, and it's not even the ONLY kind of entertainment in existence
>>741841306>you CAN just only have a pistol while everyone else has power armor and terminatorsYou know what, fine. See ya in 24 months when it's 300 dollars just to survive leaving your safe house for 30 seconds. Enjoy!
>>741789910This is actually disgusting anti-consumer practices, why would anyone support this
>>741842073Consolegoys pay a yearly subscription to play their games online and DLC that consists of nothing but mappacks.The GTAV audience does nothing but buy Shark Packs to get ahead of everyone else in the P2W multiplayer.They will consoom, and they will defend their corpo Gods.
>>741841730what is this greentext argument? do you think i'm trying to sell this game here? maybe you should consider getting treatment for your brain damage instead?
>>741842262nothing in gta online is p2w you whiny disingenuous little faggot
>>741842467LMAO
>>741818351>Please have a subscription membership to play online like MMOs so I can laugh even harder.this will happen
>>741842467>flying bike with missileswhy do you lie?
>>741842819that you can buy with the in-game currency you get by playing the game. you don't understand what pay to win means.
You mean to there's there's no booklet, no sticker, no ad flap for future r* games and not even a 14 day free trial goy station live code? Just a code and plastic
>>741805651>GTA 6 is not coming out on Steam until 2027 or 2028.Who care ? Rockstar are the worst faggot around on pc, they force you to use their shitty launcher
>>741842889no, YOU don't understand. If it's not included in the base game it's pay to win. I bet people who buy it don't have to farm some stupid goy currency. Stop pretending that GTA is not a scam franchise. GTA online is considered one of the most low IQ games in existence. It's stupid. It's been stupid since 2013, I was there on launch of GTA online on ps3. You are an idiot that rockstar has been farming for 10 years. You are literally their money tree and they don't love you for it. Nobody loves you for it. You have wasted your wallet for nothing. You are a pathetic bitch boy pay pig. Your own mother is ashamed of you.
>>741799217The max you can put on a disc is like 120gb or something. I'm sure there's some new tech out there but this is what was taught to me by compTIA
>>741790069>the goy has succesfully finished his transformation into cattle
>>741843065it is in the base game, dumbass. all of online's updates have been free. also i've never bought any shark cards but it sounds like you did and you regret it now or something. why else would you be so oddly fixated on it?
>>741843267Nigger, I've not played GTA online since PS3. It was shit now and it was shit then. I don't know what a shark card is but sounds like you do.
>>741791415Why is everyone in denial about the real audience for GTA and Call of Duty games? At least I played Duke Nukem 3D when I was 8 or something.
Did thry at least put the game's map in the box?
>>741843639No, it's literally just an empty box. goyim love to have something to hold and look at. Let em' goy-out!
>>741841306no shit sherlock. go add your meaningless observations somewhere else
