Single player only is a plus, not a problem.
GTAV has a ton of shit in game trying to force you online. Stuff like businesses you could only buy online advertised in game.
You missed that onr being a multi line statement. The issue is the paywall in a Singleplayer game. Basically just another 20€ day 1 DLC.
Okay, but if I look at literally any game on Steam or PS store every single game has “Standard Edition” “Deluxe” “Full on Simp” options.
“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.
Wait, this is about GTA6? 30 fps for the biggest release of 2026?
I'm sure it will look ✨Cinematic✨
Ironically I was going to buy a PlayStation for GTA 6. Now with digital only on both... Literally why would I? I'll wait a year and buy the "rental" for my PC.
*Proceeds to wait and pirate it anyway
Not to defend them because I think it is a bullshit move, however, didn't GTAV also release first on consoles?
GTA has released first on consoles ever since GTA3. Every single one except 1 and 2, didn't come to PC for at least a year.
Yep, and that's why I never bought it. It released way too late at full price, fuck you Sony.
Got it for free on Epic.
I think all of them did, at least GTA 3 and onward
And wasn't that also bad?
I had an Xbox 360 just for GTA 5. I bought a PS4 just for RDR2. I'm sure as hell not buying a PS5 for this.
Also there were planned DLC for GTA 5 single player that got axed once people started spending money online.
Yes that why I said
Not to defend them because I think it is a bullshit move
just that it's expected behavior because Rockstar has always been terrible.
