Yeah I mean it might be stupid but it’s also a real nothingburger. This is like if the trailer aired at 3am and you fall asleep and watch it when you wake up at 9am.

I gotta be honest, I don’t see how this is different than all the times a movie preview would premiere on MTV or some other cable/satellite channel. Game trailers and gameplay previews premiered on G4/TechTV quite a bit for a good run there. Also, it’s on Netflix a whopping six hours earlier than YouTube. That’s not a paywall, so much as a paybump. I hate that I’m white-knighting for capitalists here, but there are things to be outraged about and this ain’t one of em.

They’ve generated drama with it. Mission accomplished as far as they’re concerned. It truly is nothing. Six hours? I’m at work, I’m at the beach, I’m on a hike, I’m doing whatever, I’ll watch it later. Boom, six hours. It’s a meaningless window of time, but there’s articles being written about it.

That’s the thing right there. I don’t understand why it seems worthwhile to get upset about this.

If it wasn’t GTA I doubt anyone would notice and/or care. It’s the equivalent of an exclusive interview or something.
