I just saw GTA6 trailer 

Is it weird, that it showed literally nothing I could call "a hook"? I mean, seriously nothing.

Instead, they were showing some twerking monkeys. I need an eye bleach after that.

What was the point of such a bleak video?

I just saw GTA6 trailer 

So, yesterday I learned, that the events in the GTA V trailer were referencing some actual viral videos.

Now, that is actually disgusting. GTA was always parodying pop culture and current political topics, but as far as I know, it never targeted real people. But, this trailer implies one of 2 options
1) The guy making the trailer thought it will be funny.
2) The game is actually going to contain missions referencing real people who were caught on camera. Do I seriously have to spell out, why putting real people into a game, where the main loop is to murder people in the most disturbing way possible.... Is not a good idea?

@LukeAlmighty Oh damn seriously?
Shit that's bad, if they couldn't make a decent trailer for the game how are they gonna deliver the game in just three years?
@Curvin @LukeAlmighty It's not all bad, it just makes me wish whatever city it's based off of (Miami?) to be nuked into dust.
@LukeAlmighty @Curvin Modern games have taught me how to enjoy killing everyone for no reason. ​
@MeBigbrain @LukeAlmighty @Curvin when you realize that GTA npcs look more human than mutants on western aligned cities.
@basadeskaiser @MeBigbrain @LukeAlmighty @Curvin Okay, but how do we get the facial expressions from Starfield NPCs into GTA6, this is what science will truly accomplish for us
@basadeskaiser @MeBigbrain @LukeAlmighty @Curvin I want the strong and empowered, mouthy, brash and off-putting latina but with that Starfield fluoride stare, at that point there will be no difference between the game and real life and we will live in the metaverse

:blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: Just found out, that Romanian Tee Vee called this shit "sexy" in his new video... :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting: :blobvomiting:

Yeah, and he blamed it on zoomers. I think he had been making that video on some seriously hard drugs.

@LukeAlmighty @MeBigbrain You'd need to be a miserable slob to say something like that
@MeBigbrain @Curvin @LukeAlmighty the disease that claimed Miami has gotten most of Florida by now. Jacksonville, Orlando and Tampa all deserve the same treatment

Gainesville is p bad now and panama city is next

I mean the point of the game is you’re a petty criminal who, through a combination of animal cunning and just not giving a fuck, “makes it.” This has been the focus of Grand Theft Auto since 1997. I’m not sure what the objection is to a game about criminality featuring tons of nigs nogging and the like.

@NEETzsche @leyonhjelm
When it comes to the game content, I always preffered the buisiness level missions, that you got from vice city for example. And in the last game, you worked for FBI loosers.

Bit my point is more about the presentation. They showed so much of the environment, that I kinda missed any particular reason of why I should not just go back to the last game. There is nothing there that I could actually be looking forward to.

For GTA 5, it was heists. And don't tell me, that this image doesn't scream to your should to go and play the game...

@LukeAlmighty

Vice City is the pinnacle of GTA. Vice City was about pride and success despite the law, not violating the law for its own sake. GTA4 and Vice City understood this to some extent this, but over time they lost sight and focused on latent criminality instead.

@NEETzsche

malding cuz u aint on my, fuck 3D “graphics” bich niga

I dunno why but sprite graphics are always superior to me. I wish they never stopped using them.

@NEETzsche @leyonhjelm @LukeAlmighty They stay out of the uncanny valley while 3D is more susceptible. Also more simple & restricted so you can dedicate more resources to making it look good.

Also doesn’t use 16GB of VRAM to render each individual bear pube like they do in Baldur’s Gate 3. More system resources for actual mechanics.

I mean, pretty much. And it looks like GTA6 explicitly takes place in some kind of not!Florida cities, kind of like how GTA5 was in not!California.

@LukeAlmighty demoralize normal people who they bet will buy the game as habit (I hope they will not).
@LukeAlmighty They will just add a "Everything in the game is fiction, and any correlation with real people, companies or events are a coincidence" and call it a day. Might slap a "This game was made by a team of diverse gender, racial and religious backgrounds" on as well, just to show off like Ubisoft does.
