Game looks really good, but totally not my thing. Happy for the folks that’ll enjoy it though.
So… they added…? If you told me this was GTAV I would believe you.
Not because I care about GTA6
But because you like posting ads directly?
I mean, what else is this community for, really?
It looks good but so what, of course it does. Can I go into any house/business? How open world is it truly? Does every ship have unique items and layouts?
Thanks for sharing. I never judge from trailers but I don’t think they will release a demo: it looks good but also the same GTA stuff, I was hoping for something more audacious and instead it seems innocuous at a narrative level. Maybe the first boring GTA? I think it will sell very good since it targets normies for the most but I’m very curious to read the critique when playtested.

They linked to the gamespot YouTube video, resolving the issue.
Leaving up.
Meh
wow you know it’s good because they use “fuck” 700 times
PREFAB SPROUT IS ON THE RADIO FUCK YESSSS YESSSS YESSSSS HOLY FUCKING YESSSSS
It’s actually kind of insane how much of a lock the sales of this game are. I can’t think of many other things that were just garunteed to sell like this. Apple products?
They should mark this as movie trailer with spoilers. I pretty much played it on skip and saw maybe 1 minute of gameplay.
Is that Kyle Jenner?
I watched this last night, and honestly, aside from the buddy system that nobody asked for and what appears to be some kind of morality/criminal profile system that makes very little sense in a GTA setting, I saw remarkably little that actually interested me.
Yes, it looks absolutely gorgeous. Yes, there are heavy plot elements, impressive character animations, and an enormous amount of polish. But underneath all of that, I’m not seeing much that makes me think, “Holy shit, this is what GTA needed to become.”
And that’s what concerns me.
My fear isn’t that GTA VI is going to be bad. It’s that Rockstar has spent all this time trying to “innovate” when they really didn’t need to. GTA already has an incredibly successful formula. Give us a massive, reactive sandbox, better AI, smarter police, deeper heists, more emergent gameplay, better vehicle physics, and more freedom in how we approach things. That’s innovation enough.
I don’t need GTA to become Red Dead Redemption with cars, a morality system, relationship mechanics, and a heavily scripted narrative.
I’m also increasingly worried about the industry’s tendency to try to appeal to the broadest possible audience while simultaneously designing around increasingly specific demographics. You can end up with a game that technically has something for everyone but somehow loses the thing that made people love the franchise in the first place.
Just look at the new Wolverine game. That’s exactly the sort of direction I’m afraid of seeing more often: taking an established property and deciding that it needs to be something fundamentally different rather than simply making an excellent version of what people already liked.
All Rockstar had to do was make another GTA. They didn’t need to reinvent the wheel.
I really hope I’m wrong about this. Because if GTA VI turns out to be an incredible open-world crime sandbox underneath all the cinematic presentation, I’ll be the first person to shut up and enjoy it.
Please be right, Rockstar.
Way too few smombies among the NPCs. Thus looks unreal.

I posted it to c/piracy on lemmy.dbzer0.com. Not sure if linking the post will break rule 6 here

It would. I initially had this post pointing to a Streamable link during the exclusivity window, but it was removed for Rule 6. Not sure how that rule interacts with alternate YouTube frontends like Invidious, but I’m not going to press my luck.
If anyone wants an unauthorized stream that skips YouTube, they’re not hard to find with a simple web search. If that’s too much effort, you’re not missing much anyways.
