Damn
>>743434095We’ve known this for weeks tho
>>743434095I like this counter. It's an accurate representation of how many genuinely retarded people live on this planet.
Gameplay?
>>743434167The two images are contradictory Saar.
>>743434095Wasn't me. I'm not only proud of that, I'm smug about it.
good goycattle
>>743434095I mean if you're gonna buy it anyway, it doesn't really make much difference.Like, yeah, obviously you shouldn't fucking pre-order a game you've seen zero gameplay of.But if you've 100% committed yourself to buying it already for whatever retarded reason.
>>743434095That's sad news for humanity.This is all based on brand recognition alone.
>>743434730What 'gameplay' has to be shown to tick off the boxes for the common GTA-player?>Third-person driving>Third-person shooting
>>743434730>if you're gonna buy it anywaywhy tho, there is literally no reason not to wait for the release, see how it actually plays from YT and decide if you like it then?I could understand if you live in bumfuck nowhere and you need to have a disk shipped, but yall city slickers
>>743434903The reality is a lot of people aren't informed consumers, anon.They hear a new game is getting released, and they just buy it because they want to play a video game.I mean when I was a kid, we went to the game store and bought games based on the fucking box art.
>>743434903Because it's GTA zoomie, next dumbass question?
>>743434095LOOK AT ALL THOSE REAL PEOPLE WHO TOTALLY PRE-ORDERED THE GAMEYOU DON'T WANT TO FEEL OUT OF THE LOOP RIGHTPRE-ORDER NOW
>firm>our evidence is..>a AI post on reddit!
gameplay when?
>>743434095This is not shocking news. The fact it will normalize shitty practices, though, is sad.
This is why I don't take physicucks seriously. The market has spent more than 20 years asking for and massively supporting digital only and now disingenuous retards want to act like "le ebil corporations are taking away muh toys!" Physicucks aren't gamers, they just want to draft some retards into their culture war.
>>743434903Consoomers get dopamine from spending money, and they want their fix as soon as they can get it.
>>743434474>>743435225I like how you guys pretend that the game-play wont just the the same exact open world third person shooter whit unnecessarily realistic animations Rockstar open world game.
>>743434095>strongest pre-order campaign on record"This just means they're spending more on marketing than ever before.
>>743435396If it's literally the same thing, then why is it so hard for them to show any?Oh wait.
>>743435396Anon, normies don't give a shit it's Grand Theft Auto. Of course it's going to be the same open world third person shooter. And it will break sales records, nothing ever changes people are so predictable.
I can't wait for the great details this game will have such as instantly failing a mission by trying to play the game, a subtle reference to real life where it's socially unacceptable to commit crimes.
>>743434095NOOOO STOP KILLING ACKDON'T BUY DIGIT-ACKThe annoying physical only trannies lost.
>>743434167>random Indian tweeter saying 50 millions of preorders makes it true
>>743434095>saaar 50 bilmillion saarYeah and the British stole 43 trillion from India..
>>743434474Fuck you mijo
im extremely surprised how many non-whites are excited to play as a white man in modern not-merica
>>743436887>he doesn't know about the mexican white supremacists
>>743434095I'll never understand the appeal of HD era GTA. The missions and worlds are so boring.
>>743434095but what about the boycott over it being digital only
>>743437287this but gta in general
>>743434095>just vote with your wallet bro
>>743437326boycotts never work - especially vidya onesmost of the people raging about digital-only haven't bought a physical game since the PS4
>>743436887I want to self insert as a Latina baddy with a white boyfriend
>>743437343nah the 3D era games were actually fun
>>743434474see GTAV and RDR2>>743435225around september given the previous games
>>743437410self insert a fucking knife into you neck
>>743434095>analytics firm says
>zoomer game, don't carereminder that the only reason this shit is as hyped as it is is because a bunch of kids LITERALLY grew up playing nothing but gta5 online, which released on the ps3. this is console roblox
>>743437326It was all performative anon, Twitter tards and redditors. The same ones who posted look I canceled my PSN subscription on social media. Then privatized all their settings so no one could see that they didn't really cancel, lol.
>>743434724You lost, tranny.
>>743437412>nahI was THIS'ing a "I'll never understand..." wtf do you mean nah im saying i don't understand the appeal of gta in general you cant just nah that
>>743434724holy fucking kek
>>743437448based
Damn, it's outselling Basedpunk 2077 in 1 week.
>>743437624nta but nah you're retarded
>>743437410o algo?
>>743437837shut the fuck up you're retarded. you're also trans.
>>743434095>analytics firmSource I made it up>>743434167AI generated Twitter posts are even less reliable than market analyists
>>743437893project harder
So it's witcher 3 (redditor) and elden ring (youtuber) for the twitter crowd
>>743437874Yeah
>>743436887Why would that surprise you? I don't expect every video game protagonist to look like me. I'm not an Italian plumber in a red suit, or a blue hedgehog, doesn't stop me from playing mario and sonic games.
I'm fascinated to see how the game reviews. The characters are unlikeable at a glance so you can already tell the plot will be worthless and forgotten (like every modern R* game). So what do you do in this game? Just go around killing people?
How the fuck do retards not think this shit isn't going to sell dozens of millions up front in the first few weeks?
>>74343808595-98 metascore
>>743437947stop projecting your projection retard tranny
>>743434412>hasn't finished working on yetYeah welcome to 10 years ago, we call that Early Access now and it's its own business model.
>>743438085likely very high, GTA and Red Dead have pretty much never gone below 90 in metacritic unless it’s a mobile spin off or those demakes.
>>743438085The average GTA player spends roughly an hour driving and rampaging until they get bored. They progress the story to the absolute minimum point where they can get the good weapons. All those preorders are going to average about 6-10 hours of total playtime. When Online comes out as a separate purchase at $80 + tip it’ll happen again.
>>743438189It might, but what about GTA 7? If it will even happen. People used to believe Star Wars/Spielberg/Nolan movies would automatically print money, and the same for many video game titles too.
>>743438189even normie coworkers of mine are asking me "what the fuck, a hundred dollars?"
Wait a minute...>260,000,000 spent in first weeks of preorder>260,000,000 / $100 priceSo they only sold about two and a half million preorders? I just looked it up and for big franchises presales make up between 20 and 30 per cent of sales. These numbers look terrible.
>>743439185It's 80 you disingenuous freak. No one is forcing you to buy the deluxe edition.
>>743439187>bigger pre-orders than any other game i. history>”umm honestly this looks terrible”
>>743439187assume the $80 price more than the $100 price, which could lead it up more towards 3.25 million, but yes ultimate the numbers are very poor for a game that cost as much as it did>>743439259sales figures barely matter when this game's development budget is measured in billions
>>743439302>sales figures barely matter when this game's development budget is measured in billionsit’s funny that you’re right but for the wrong reasons considering GTAV made 5 billion dollars off mtx alone
>>743437326you expect too much from normalfags, if you dont want to be disappointed by them, your expectations should be in the negatives, and even then they may surprise you by somehow going lower than that
>>743439259Cyberpunk had over 8 million preorders
All that matters is if I buy the game or not. Since I am not buying the game, GTA6 lost. Doesn't matter if 8 billion /v/tards bought it.
>>743439362yea any real profit for GTA6 is going to come from GTAO and rockstar's traditional insane monetization. problem for rockstar being the game cost so damn much it's going to take a good while to recoup costs and start turning a profit no matter how it shakes out and no matter how well it sells
>>743434095Cool now drop trailer 3.
>>743439649>got a quarter of the way there with zero gameplay shownpretty amazing when people know pretty much nothing about the game.
>analysts say
>>743439185normies will complain and then consoom anyway. this should be common knowledge by now.
>>743439242oh yeah no rockstar is so deliriously horny for the $100 price point that they scalped random parts of the game to sell it back to you as a $20 DLC and incentivize that pay amount, but you know it's dIsInGeNuOuS to think that rockstar wants me to pay $100. nobody's forcing me
>>743440140I never bought the $20 upgrade for RDR2. Turned out fine for me
>>743438245More like perfect 100
>>743441132Impossible so is a 99 now.
>>743441132impossible, even if it was a perfect game, there will always be a contrarian reviewer who will give it like a 7.
I don't care.
I care
>>743434474Honestly they probably don't even have since normalfags are retarded.
>>743434095You niggas never learn
>>743441716difference being market analysts are pretending GTA6 having 1/4th the preorder pace of cyberpunk means they're on track to recoup their astronomically higher costs
>>743441132The only game to get a 99 was Zelda OoT and that’s because it has about 20 reviews counted. Followed by Soul caliber at 98 with also 20 something reviews then the only other 98s is Super Mario Galaxy 2 and GTA4 with ~80 reviews. It is incredibly hard to average out a 99-100 score with that many reviews these days.
>>743441789>pre-order pacedid cyberpunk go over 8 million pre-orders?
>>743441938who cares?
>>743442098you’re talking about it?
GTA 6 exposed all these doomer tortanic circlejerkers that have ruined the board were just miserable ass zoomers and gen alpha all along.
>>743442682>another tortanic or fallout 76Please god, I don't care about politics. Just please let this happen, it would be so funny.
>>743441938Yes it did
>>743442901you’re right, but it seems to be 8 million and some change when it finally launched
>>743443203forgot the pic
>>743434095Its digital how is getting pre order amy special now? When it's released it's going to be a headach downloading it. Got gta v on pc it took 2 hours to download. If you are in poor country with bad internet like USA it's going to take ages to down load anything
>50 million copies at launch pricing>vast majority of them digital because why would you buy a code in a box>gta 6 has been said to be selling 6/1 ps5 vs xboxThat means sony is getting 30% of lets say 42 million copies sold for 80 bucksThats 1 billion earned in one weekGof forbid when gta online comes with microtransactions
>>743434095And I won't be one of them.
>>743443443there’s a week to pre-load it. let’s say the game is 200gbs, you could download it in that week even if your internet was about 330kb/s
>>743437326
>>743435225It's the same exact Rockstar bullshit retards have been playing for the past 2 decades
>>743434095Thankfully we all remember what happened the last time a game sold on hype alone.
troons lost casualchads won
>>743437936>Source I made it upDunno, seems legit.https://newzoo.com/articles/gta-6-first-week-pre-order-salesSeems like a legit report from a legit marketing agency. The question is whether their research is reliable, but I'm
>>743447617R* fans are less autistic than monster hunter fans
>>743434095None of them are me.
>>743434878They haven't revealed the obligatory helicopter mission or the wacky radio talk shows where a parent claims vaccines made their son gay.
>>743437380Vote with your wallet means pay for games you want to see more of. But instead you retards have twisted it into "millions will buy GTA so I'll buy it too and pirate indie and AA games because nothing I do matters."
>>743438085>So what do you do in this game? Just go around killing people?Mostly white people. The protagonists are cut-throat ruthless hardcore criminals with no regard for the law but also have the same political beliefs as reddit atheists so the story is about their righteous mission to undo the evils of the white man. If you kill too many Blacks, the game will assure you this was by accident and put you in time out until you kill twice as many whites. Over time the game becomes a manhunt to kill the last white person living in the city.
>>743434095>37-51only a 30% rangehow accurate
>>743434095when this game was announced I didn't see any hate coming from this board, why isn't that the case now? new people trying to fit in?
>>743434095Who are they?
>>743449139just antsy that nothing new has been shown for so long
>>743449301the R* marketing team, go pre-order a copy today
And with that $100 games are here to stayThanks a lot cattle we now have to deal with the $100 standard
>>743449416no one is paying $80 for any game except for GTA6 stop being retarded. Outer Worlds 2 tried $80 before and no one bought it so they lowered it to $70 before it launched. Theyre still not gonna spend $80 on a game like that after GTA6
>>743449675Sony will make you eat your words soon enough
>analysts say.....
>>743448603God, I got so erect reading that. Would be truly the best timeline.
>>743434095>pre ordering a digital only game that wont go out of stockwhy do goyim do this
>>743437384Post nose
>>743449675You will buy the $100 ultimate edition retardThere is no going back from thisGaming is dead and the cattle killed it
>>743437465Yep. They're just trying to make the game look more hyped than it really is, to try and get as many idiots to jump onto their fake popularity bandwagon. Game is going to flop and the company is going to suffer major losses and massive layoffs are to be expected.
>>743434095I only listen to licensed analrapists
>>743449927Doubt it, Sony can barely sell Marathon for $40>>743450085ultimate editions are even new dipshit pretty much every AAA game has one and then had them for over 10years at this point. RDR2 had one
>>743434095And Moana is on track for a billion according to last months ANALcysts
>>743450195ultimate editions aren’t even new*
>>743450195the ultimate edition price will become the new standard price you fucking retardultimate edition will go beyond $200 in future games because of this shit
>>743450113
>>743450362Rockstar and the rest of the gaming companies don't give a fucking shitThey will rob everyone blind for $100This shit is 100% happening whether how much cope you throw at me
>>743434095Anyone who preorders games deserve whatever they get
>>743450362too bad most people don’t fucking buy the ultimate edition and haven’t for 10years. I don’t even understand the point of this doomposting. The majority of the AAA games have been flopping at just $70 with thousands of dev layoffs every month and you’re stupid enough to think everyone will now spend a $100 on every new game because they’ll all thing they have the same value as GTA6. Get real
>>743434095between GTA and the odyssey this like 9/11 for chuds
>>743434095>>743434167While I don't fully believe these jeet numbers. It should sadden and frighten you to find out there are more retarded jeets and brown tards than real humans.
>>743450573Okay poomar.
>>743434095>let's make shit up so some retard is gonna buy it for real, figuratively and literallyAn old trick, and also an ineffectual one on my person
>>743447905>legit agency legitimately made it up >the legit random website legitimately told me legit, bruh
>>743437384>boycotts never workYou're retarded.
>>743438085>I wonder how the journos will rate the massively hyped game with an even bigger marketing budget I bet you get really exited over what the outcome of North Korean elections might be too.
>>743450560They will now with this game for the COMPLETE edition retardYou will pay the $100 whether you want to or notgood luck being cucked out of the complete edition of the game
>>743442682Those people must have a humiliation fetish trying to will GTA6 failing into existence. The game would sell well even if there was no game. Start the thing, it's just a png saying GTAVI? Still a massive success.
Every single person excited for this game is cattle end of discussion
>>743450894Not even nintendo was able to fully force an $80 standard. Everyone’s instead is going to think “Do this game offer the same value as GTA6 to justify the same price” most will say no. Most don’t think games are even worth $70
>>743451172They will nowWestern gaming as a whole is dead
>>743451239As retarded as thinking everyone will make GTA clones after GTA6
>>743451409Fucking kill yourself bootlickerGTA VI deserves to fall
>>743451723>if you don’t believe the schizo delusion that everyone will drop $80 for every game now because of GTA6, you are a bootlicker somehowyou’re so fucking stupid you don’t even know what you’re getting mad at. it’s just blind autistic rage because you were taught to be mad 24/7
>>743452347>you’re so fucking stupid you don’t even know what you’re getting mad at. it’s just blind autistic rage because you were taught to be mad 24/7Welcome to /v/ touristNow leave
>>743452347Also keep licking that boot clean cunt
№ -1
>>743452578>”I think everyone will pay more, I’m not the bootlicker, you are”okay
>>743452831Congratulations now fuck off niggerGTA VI will never be good because Dan left
>>743452885>Thinking any R* game is goodwhat a dumb bootlicking faggot
>>743453064LMAO i hate GTA and R* niggerThis shit series should have died ages ago along with most of western games
>>743453127Sure buddy, why would it matter if Dan made GTA6 or not if you think all the games are bad. Get exposed dumb bootlicking faggot
>>743434095KEEP BUYING USELESS SHIT
I'm going to get it day one but what is the point of preordering in the age of digital unless they throw in some bonus thing?
>>743453207YUM YUM YUM I LOVE LICKING BOOTS ALL FUCKING DAY HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>743453301The only reasonable time to pre-order it is the week before launch because you can pre-load it. Outside of that there is no reason to
>>743434167>there were already 13 million cancellationsRocksisters?
>>743439242The $100 edition is clearly the base game, the $80 one is the poverty edition.
Yes I'm sure like 40% of all console owners will buy one game within a week of its release
>>743454126literally every other game company made sure not to release a game in november, it’s the only game to even buy that month.
>pre-ordering games>pre-ordering digital games>pre-ordering digital games with 0 actual gameplay shownIts over...
>>743454126For GTA? Yes.
