“It’s cool if they’re shitty because everyone else is shitty”
Is that really your point? Fucking do not buy this shit game by these shit people
No, my point is everyone is making a huge stink about GTA6 as if Rockstar are dragging the industry into the shit, but it is all the same shit as every other game on the market.
Was anyone actually expecting anything different?
There is a lot of copium being huffed that someday a publisher will do the Biggest Game Ever in a fair way finally, and show the greedy hogs that it can be done and be profitable.
The tanks are low and the traps are full. You’ve already been captured and you are in a prison, and to some degree it’s of our own collective making.
BG3 does a pretty good job here. Big release, the upsells were all art books and stuff, with a few callback items you get as a premium.
But I’m not surprised Rockstar, after milking GTA5 online for a decade, are not the champions of consumer equity.
Rockstar has been shitty to consumers ever eince they were aquired by TakeTwo Interactive. TakeTwo is right up there with EA, Epic, and Ubisoft, competing for the least consumer friendly game company.
