GTA has sucked for awhile. I couldn’t care less. I will not be playing it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, they haven't released a good game in over a decade.

GTA 5 is shit compared to their earlier versions.

GTA 3 was peak.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

San Andreas was peak. 5 was better than 4, IMO. Worse than Vice City and I think you have rose colored memories thinking 3 is better than 5. 3 was janky and fairly linear.

Lemmy is a negative place

When triple A games have been consistently garbage the last couple years its hard to be positive

Rockstar is the greatest AAA dev there is. There’s no games as detailed as Rockstar games.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

Rockstar lost of the most creative talent that made it what it is between RDR2 and VI. We'll see if this next generation can live up to the pedigree. This will be their first release without Dan Houser.

I do appreciate the level of detail and design that goes into their games that credit goes to their artists and developers the company itself is just as shitty as the rest of em imo

I'm having a feeling that GTA 6 will be so massive in disk space requirements it'll force plenty of consoles to be "only one game at a time". I'm sure a lot of people will enjoy that nonetheless, much like they enjoy buying ~~FIFA~~ EA Football <current year> every year and spending real money on whatever bullshit microtransactions are in place to get their dream player for their team.

It all leaves me reminded that any sense of Rockstar being in any way countercultural is surely an ancient, unfunny joke by this point.

Spot on.

Remember when the first Animal Crossing came out and it straight up gave you a memory card because its save file literally used the entire thing?

GTA 6 physical copies prolly gonna come with an SSD just so it can be installed.

I've got a couple of mates that only play fifa. They buy the new ones asap, they buy the new console to play them. They love that shit.
