I'm sure the gamer™ reaction to this news will be calm and restrained. |
I look forward to the "Get woke, go broke" line being trotted out whilst GTA rakes in another couple billion dollars worth of sales.
|
If gta gets woke it literally will go broke. Like when midway made a T rated mortal kombat. Literally put them out of business
|
Look who’s an idiot now.
|
God I hope the female character is a she/they.

That said if the game doesnt relentlessly mock everyone it will fail. A GTA with no teeth isnt GTA. Would be like if south park became PC. Wont work. |
Shouldve been gta: o not gta:o lol

I hope there’s missions where you have to acknowledge someone’s pronouns or you fail.

I’m not sure. Maybe you’re the cops murdering blacks?

Honestly it was a fun mode and you could easily just call it something else and make it two rival gangs instead of cops and it'd be fine. |

Which religion is that?

Many games have had GTAs gameplay. None have replicated its tone, style and sense of humor. Try as they might. True Crime, Saints Row, Watchdogs hell simpsons road rage.true crime mechanically was better than GTA in every gameplay aspect by a country mile. Didnt matter of course. It lacked the spirit. And thats always been the draw. GTA 3 and vice city very legitimately played like shit. Even for the time. Didnt matter. Biggest games of their time.
|
GTA has never been about the gameplay. Ever. GTA 4 was a decent cover shooter but the cover shooters of its day were way better. GTA polished its self up pretty good with 5. You atleast werent fighting the game anymore. Plays the smoothest for sure.
|
Not to hearken back to a previous analog but its like watching south park for the animation
|
I wonder if the popularly of the brand itself has anything to do with it being more popular to than all all those games. Or the fact practically everyone bought a copy when it came out so it was easy to get your friends together for online play. But I’m sure it’s a racism and what have you.
|
Or playing MK for the balanced mechanics.

I love all the games i listed there save watchdogs. They arent staples of the medium though. If the gameplay was the draw they would be. Saints row 2, 3 and 4 play way better than gta 3 and vc.
Gta's success isnt exactly a mystery after all. Kids telling other kids about fucking prostitutes and killing them to get their money back did more for the sales of 3 than anything. GTA is a franchise literally built on being edgey, crass and often taboo. Especially with 3 as it hadnt really been a game that went that hard on console ever. Pushing against neo-puritans is intrinsic to the fiber of its being. Because without its just watchdogs. |
Grown men crying about video games.

Really hope it’s strictly water guns in this version.
