Realistically what are the odds of it flopping?
Zero
>>741918146It'll sellIt'll sell a lotEven needed to recoup 2 billion they'll be fineBut I don't think it'll still be considered a cultural phenomenon a year from now
It will sell millions based on hype alone.After the dust settles everyone will agree it was "mid" and just like that GTA will no longer be a cultural phenomenon. The next game after will see far less success as a result.
Won't be as big a success relative to V.Will still be a money printer.
>>7419181460.
>>741918146it will be considered a flop by /v/eddit until it will release on pc
>>741918146zero but it'll not be enough for rockstar and it'll send ripples through the industry that will mindbreak executives into making even dumber decisions that their games won't have the pedigree to tank
>>741918146none success is already baked in
gta games never flopped
>>7419181460 chance of flopping and normies still talk about GTAV as a good game 12 years later because it was their first GTA. If this is even somewhat better than V it will be talked about for the next decade as well
>>741918146Less than zero, which is cohencidentally the percentage change of me spending shekels on it. Strange that...
>>741918347>just like that GTA will no longer be a cultural phenomenondo you guys understand that the average person is not like the average /v/ poster
>>741918146The game could fail to boot up and never be fixed and there would still be enough people who never refunded to pull a profit. Every brown person on Earth will purchase this game.
>>741918658What does that have to do with my post retard?
>>741918146Games probably already at a profit with preorders
>>741918347V was already mid and felt like it didn't really capture the zeitgeist of the era it was set in. None of that mattered because 98% of players have only experienced V through GTA Online.
>>741919007Nah, 3 to 4 to 5 all feel like a huge upgrade. V has the best mission design, map, driving, and the three swappable characters was such a great idea
>>741918146absolutely fucking zero, BUT it is very possible it won't reach the astronomical hype that built up over a decade. Gameplay is yet to be shown..
>>741918146Slim to none. The cattle rushed in to buy empty cases, when even i was turned off by such a travesty that i refused to preorder.
>>741918146/v/ will say it flop no matter what anon.
>>741918146It can be the worst game in existence and it will still sell more than any other game.
>>741918747Everything, the average person dictates cultural phenomenons.
>>741918146They instantly made 1 billion more than they needed to break even, day 1... of pre orders. The game already succeeded and people haven't even seen gameplay yet. Lmfao.
The singleplayer version will flop but the mmo wont
Goy cattle will jork their hype and fomo sticks, no matter what rockstr does it will sell
>>741918146Fuck no, it'll sell a massive ton to the retarded masses. Though long term sales would be another thing entirely. Unless every gamer somehow says this is too much and doesn't buy it of course.
>>741918146Define “flop” because it’s gonna sell. I think it does really well personally and I don’t have any interest in the series.
>>741918146>realistically what are the odds of the biggest normie game in our solar system, that's built entire industries around it, flopping?You must live in fantasy land if you think this piece of shit will ever flop. GTA will never flop, it is too big to fail. People make tons of money just reporting rumors with zero footage and fake mockup logos. It will never fail, no matter how shit it is. There are more drones than humans.
>>741918146Pre-orders already covered the cost of the game, in just one day
>>741918146It’ll be the first western game to actually release and make money in like 5 years. It will also be the last.
>>741918146It will never flop, it will sell on good will. Some franchises are so big that they need multiple bad games in a row to flop, shit Pokemon is still trucking and those games haven't been good in forever.
Its probably already made half its budget back in preorders alone. You have faggots gleefully posting their epic 147 day countdown timers to show other faggots they are already more than willing to shill the $80-100 over without actually seeing real gameplay first.
>>741918146If the chance could go into the negatives, it would.
>>741918658And yet ubishit is almost bankrupt
>>741919007>it didn't really capture the zeitgeist of the era it was set inyes it did. go rewatch fame or shame.
>>741918146100 000 000
>>741918146hopefully 100%
>>741918146>flopping
>>741918146Not that high
>>741923582Bullshit, post source
>>7419181460%
>>741923774NTA but I don't doubt it. GTAV has supposedly sold over 230 million copies in its lifetime. 39 million is a fraction of that.
>>741923774You are a brain-dead medically retarded double nigger if you genuinely find it hard to believe the absolute biggest entertainment product ever made is somehow going to flop.Like goddamn you are stupid as fuck holy shit.
>>741924087GTA 5 is 10+ years old - 6 will get there, in time. There's also the store, the skins, the subscriptions, the shark cards ... Rockstar will keep the lights on ;dd
>>741919185>V has the best mission designIdiot.
>>741919185>3 to 4 to 5 all feel like a huge upgradeIn what fucking way? It's been the same terrible gameplay since GTA3, and the stories and characters have gotten progressively worse since San Andreas.Oh wait, you can pick up garbage and throw it at people. Amazing innovation.
>>741918146As others have stated it is quite obvious that the game will be a monetary success but I think it won't meet the expectations of players. The hype will just silently drain away by next summer and not many people will really talk about it. You'll have some who will say it's amazing and some say it was bad. But the vast majority of people will just subconsciously forget about it and move on. This will likely be the last GTA game.
>>741924848This. It's the same formula, same gameplay, but it just works - world is shiny, world is big, tendie is happy.
>>741918146It will sell at least 80 million copies, at full price. That's $6 billion in profit.
>>741918249It's already made 3 billion and it's not even out yet
>>741925389>believing a random twitter retard with no source
>>741925002>world is shiny, world is big, tendie is happyLiterally the same with Crimson Desert and yet /v/fags praise that game to high heavens.
