    They blocked Linux on gta 5, so I lost interest in gta 6. Hurts me, but their greed with gta online kind of killed the series for me.

        I played single player thousands of hours since the Xbox 360. I own maybe 10 copies of gta 5. Sad they never released the DLC.

        Maybe in 5 years when it’s $20 I might pick it up. But the hype isn’t there for me anymore.

          Only reason I’m replaying single player is they released the Enhanced Edition for free on Steam if you already owned it.

          “Sad they never released the doc”

          They released hundreds of updates and god knows how much extra content, what DLC were you wanting?

    So half that trailer was the intro cutscene and the rest was just a bunch of random story cut scenes tossed in there. I’m not really excited for this.

    It will be like 13 years since GTA V. We should be on GTA VII almost right now, but here we are.

    Honestly this looks disappointing but prob the perfect game for the bread & circuses crowd.

    Holy crap, that’s some next-level photo-realism they were able to achieve on… reads notes PS5! 🤯 The story and gameplay look promising as well.

        It’s bonnie and clyde. it’s crime plus romance.

        Gameplay : it’s GTA. You can probably swap between the two characters.

            My main complaint about GTA V is that

            it was formulaic and overstayed its welcome. I got up to “bury the hatchet” and just stopped.

              Yeah, I bailed on it a couple times, but kept coming back because people said it was so good. I ended up forcing myself to finish it so I could stop feeling like I was missing something, and I haven’t touched it since.

              I much preferred GTA IV, which people seem to hate. Idk, I just felt like Niko was more interesting to play as vs any of the three characters from V. Franklin had promise, but his arc was ultimately disappointing.

                I think it just got more generic as the series/time through the game went on. I am not a “heist” or “generic crime” guy, unless it’s presented as a farce, and it just started to be by the numbers and serious by that point.

                Like, if we look at GTA SA, the first third is a 90s gangsta thing. OK. The second two thirds are more in line with GTA’s colourful characters and irreverent style.

                4 was brown and stuff, but it was different to the series. Niko was genuine, dark and caught in a shitty , weird situation. I tried with the DLC packs, but they didn’t stick, probably because I tried to do them in order, and Lost and Damned was again, too heavy.

                  And even for a heist game, it had relatively few heists. But yeah, it really could use more satire or at least likeable characters, the story and characters as presented weren’t very engaging IMO.
