6 is never going to live up to the hype and will be riddled with micro transactions and GaaS shoved up its ass.
Stop paying attention to what the big corporations are pumping out. Go play something made my people that give a shit about the game and not the “potential revenue” it might create.
III, VC, SA, IV and even V are some of the best games of all time. No need for new ones
Really aren’t. GTA has had the most dated mission structure since part 3.
Their Gangs and crimes stories are also weak.
SA was the only one that had something to say.
The multiplayer will be like that.
But I’m not here for that, and Rockstar and Naughty Dog are in the “haven’t let me down yet” club.
Honestly they could have released single player DLC for V and made a load of money without having to even develop VI
I’ve literally purchased a Xbox series X for this game, moved to and moved back from south Florida and it’s still not out…I can imagine this is live up to expectations but I also can’t imagine it won’t live up to expectations…
I think GTA 6 will be an outstanding game, but I also think it will be Rockstar’s greediest release to date. I will make sure to consider everything before I buy it.
As greedy as GTA V was with its multiplayer, Rockstar has a history of releasing a good single player base game before they start with that, and looking as GTA VI leaked map, I don’t see that changing now. It’ll definitely be nothing more than a single player experience for me though.
Plus, were might have to wait one or two years to play it on PC, especially on Linux, so there’s a lot of time for considerations…
I guess I don’t understand. I got V and paid literally nothing past that.
The experience was great. No one has to buy shark cards or whatever the hell they are.
Meanwhile Skyrim came out the week my daughter was born, and she’s in high school now. We still don’t have a new elder scrolls
No… no that’s impossible… fuck. 14 years, huh? I remember it was 11/11/11 and there were ads for it on city buses, and I thought “wow i guess video games are mainstream now”
Have you tried having another kid?
Its been that long 😅 no way
Yeah, that is crazy to me. I understand them wanting to make other games in between and that making those games takes a few years each. Rationally, I’m on board with the decision-making and the math that leads to this.
But that the result is a generation who didn’t have an Elder Scrolls part released in their childhood, that still feels like far too grand of a concept.
What are you talking about, there's a new Elder Scrolls release every year. Skyrim Remastered, Skyrim Deluxe. Skyrim Limited Edition. Skyrim for Switch. Skyrim Premium Deluxe for Switch, the list goes on.
But what avout TESO?
Don’t you put that evil on me!
I’ve lived in the same GTA house longer than I’ve lived in any real home.
The cars I own in GTA V I’ve had longer than the current car that’s sitting in my driveway.
It’s a fantastic documentary; as an LA native, I recommend playing through the story to better understand our diverse culture of shallow rich folks, inner city gents, and meth-addled drug countrymen.
In fact, pirate it to truly honor my culture. Lol
I’m still salty that Rockstar seemingly broke GTA V for Linux on purpose. I poured hours into Online and loved the Community I found, so it’s a real shame they shut out Linux and Steam Deck users for good by adding BattleEye without Linux support. I was pretty much done with the game by then, but that move solidified my personal boycott of Rockstar.
Online ist dead. 5 mins in and I’m getting headshots from a guy across the map with a K:D of 3000:1. Everything online costs real money or endless grind. Waiting for 15 mins in a lobby, only that the host logs out 2 mins into the mission.
You can use a private or invite only lobby.
GTAO is trash, always has been.
I got plenty of enjoyment out of it for a while before I got bored and the hacking got too bad.
GTA VI I feel is going to stretch about 4 generations of gaming before ever seeing VII.
GTA V has started in the PS3/360 era, went through the PS4/One era, is sitting in the PS5/X era and we're now about 2-3 years away from the next gen of gaming to happen.
There’s possibility that GTA VII will come faster. Rockstar does waves on new engine versions. GTA I + II, engine switch, GTA III, VC, SA, engine switch, GTA IV, GTA V, possibly engine switch?, GTA VI, GTA VII? Or some offspin?
Problem is, they smelled online money so dunno.
Gotta love Steven Ogg.
Keep in mind that GTA V released in the PS3 - which is now considered a retro console.
I refuse to entertain the idea of PS3 as retro until at least next year, when it turns 20. Now you might say “okay then, it also came out on Xbox 360, which turns 20 in about 2 months” to which I say… get off my lawn!
For some reason this made me feel much older than knowing GAT V launched 11 years ago. I grew up with an NES.
Last GTA I played was vice city, I think that was on the PS1.
Though it was a completely different game than what we’ve come to know as GTA V after the PC release, in terms of graphics and content. And even then I remember grabbing snacks to watch the loading screen…
I liked GTA V, but after finishing it I drove around for a few hours and the never touched it again. I’m not really sure why.
I still go back to Vice City and San Andreas, somehow these worlds are just more fun. But like I said, I’m not sure why…
The graphics in 5 are great, the sound is great, but something is missing…
Because once you finished the story there’s really not much sidemission for you to play, and the world suddenly feel very empty without the excellent characters. I quit the same way.
I’m glad it’s not just me. It’s a lonely experience.
Hmm, maybe it’s time to try out that game
The online mode a bit wortnit unless your idea of a good time is getting blown up ever 5 seconds
You can do private lobbies but you gotta have friends to have people to play with.
On the PC front GTA-RP servers are alive and thriving and very safe and stable at this point.
the online modes of this series have always been unplayable. it’s a shame because i know there’s potential there
In two months Skyrim will be 14.
And don’t get me started on F-Zero.
Scooter brother!
I tried to play through it recently. Game was OK, but fuck their stupid launcher. I want nothing to do with GTAO, so why do I have to load into its menu every single time I go to play the game and suffer through a bunch of ads to play a fucking single player game I paid for? I uninstalled about ten hours in. I might pirate it. It’s probably a better experience.
Man I remember this photo. Bought V for 360, beat it and haven’t touched it since. After Gay Tony and The Lost and Damned I waited for a story expansion that never came.
All the story DLC ended up being modified for online.
I bought it, played a little, but was working 60 hour weeks.
Housemate starting playing on my savegame, so when I next got back to it, I had no idea what was going on.
Haven’t gone back to it since, though I have nearly finished IV a few times now.
You mean you didn’t buy it four more times for various platforms over the years? Wow, that’s impressive 👏 Do you do that with all games?
Coming up on 14 years for Skyrim.
They’ve both been propped up by pay-to-win bullshit online games that have diluted the formula. I remember when GTA V was new (ish) and while the controls took some getting used to, and some of the minigames were bullshit (Rockstar games have wonky controls), the game was fun as hell. Zero interest in the online stuff. It never appealed to me. I did try Elder Scrolls Online, and also Fallout 76. This online shit makes them money, it’s a surprise they’re even bothering with a GTA VI. The next GTA Online is really what they should be focused on (though I’ll always root for the single player games). After the last couple Fallouts and Starfield, I don’t even have any hope for Elder Scrolls VI. GTA VI at least looks like it might actually be good. But screw paying $100 for it.
I’m out of the loop with GTA VI, but the last I knew of it the only thing they’d released was a cinematic, non-gameplay trailer. Have they released gameplay now?
I don’t know if they released any gameplay, but IIRC some leaked (from an early build).
i dowload GTA5 for mobile in this web site www.smartbuytech.online
Go away scammer
Is that Thomas from the channel Bogensportwelt?
Seems about right. Feels like I haven’t played GTA for a decade.
Every now and then internet reminds me it’s a thing, though.

I don’t even care about GTA 6 anymore
Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
Damn we got FenderStratocaster not caring about GTA6 before we got GTA6

Why is this type of comment so popular on Lemmy? We are supposed to hate absolutely anything here for some reason.
FenderStratocaster@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I don’t hate everything. I hate the fact that GTA V has been milked for 12 years. I like other stuff. I like Apex Legends. Smash brothers.

remember: people who have something to complain about will post much more frequently. since the fediverse is smaller, these types of comments are found more frequently

Several reasons, really.

Don’t get it either, maybe it also something to do with lemmys demographic being older. ( I believe that is the case with Mastodon vs. Twitter ) Sure it is sad that the planed single-player content was scraped for multiplayer ( even though i had lots of fun with the multiplayer as well, at least in its early days. ) But why crying about VI when it hasnt been released yet? Just see when it comes out…

A group of methods for obtaining money falsely through the use of swindles, frauds, dishonest gambling.

The multi-player maybe. But they’ve consistently delivered excellent single-player experiences with their flagship titles. GTA 3, VC, SA, IV, and V were all amazing. RDR1 was spectacular, and RDR2 may be the most impressive game I’ve ever played.
At this point, I trust Tockstar to deliver a good single-player game. I don’t really expect much in the way of the quality DLC we got with GTAIV and RDR, but I think the base game will easily be enough for me to justify a purchase.
I’m still gonna wait and see, of course. They’re not getting a pre-order out of me.
FenderStratocaster@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I’d agree with everything that you about the previous games. However, I think they made 10 billion dollars off of GTA online and wouldn’t be surprised if they focus more on that and leave the single player to the wayside.
MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
There aren’t any micro transactions in the single player mode. Pretty stupid take.
