I'd pay that if it was a good game, but it's prolly gonna be watered down unfunny garbo

[–] mlg@lemmy.world 5 points 4 hours ago

Kind of random but I hope they do the game comparisons not just with GTA 4 & 5 but also GTA clones like Watchdogs or even Cyberpunk 2077.

For all the graphical "upgrades" we've gotten, the physics and dynamic open world has fallen far behind.

What's the point of all that graphic fidelity if NPCs still act like scripted bots from Skyrim?

Sony gamers are just like iphone users

I'm out. I know that it wont amount to much in the grand scheme of things. I switched from a pure Playstation background (owned 1 through 5 on release day and had hundreds of games for each generation) over to PC. I wont partake in this, and I have spent thousands of hours with GTA.

Between Playatation being shitty and now Rockstar being extra shitty, I'm out.

Is rockstar owned by Sony?

I'll be honest, I haven't touched a GTA since Vice City on the PC.

Liberty city stories on the psp on my end. I got the last one or PC installed it played it for two days and then I threw it out after playing multi-player and the only thing people wanted to do was heist.

Modded private servers are actually really good for the last GTA but yeah the official GTAO experience is ass. And private servers will probably suck for 6 since they bought out CFX.

Post-covid inflation proved to companies that customers will pay up regardless because they want it and they want it now, no matter the price. Hell, we laughed at horse armor but microtransactions caught on anyway. Voting with your wallet doesn't work because there are an endless swarm of consoomers itching to blow their money on product.

Consent is actually way cheaper to make than a product that's good for people.

We boycott Sony?

[–] BlackLaZoR@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

I'll boycott it like I boycotted Concord. Or Cleopatra. Or Dr. Who. Or SuperGirl. Or Mixtape. Or Odyssey by Nolan. I'll do nothing and destroy them, I'll watch them burn doing nothing and being happy

I'm not sure why we're surprised.

This entire gen has had spotty coverage of physical games at the best of times. Even on the biggest titles.

Just off the top of my head BG3 wasn't even available on disc, and Indiana Jones was only in some overpriced collector's edition.

I guess the odd way GTA6 is putting a code in a box is grabbing the headlines, rather than it just not being available on a disc.

I think it's more that we still think of consoles as something you put media into. We have all but abandoned physical media on PCs for over a decade now. I love not having to deal with finding space for discs, but I don't trust anything anymore so I feel like it's only a matter of time before I lose access to things I bought

[–] Sylvartas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

It's still a pretty big deal because rockstar games are huge and some people still have bad internet. I probably wouldn't have bought RDR2 on PS4 if it didn't have a physical copy of the game, precisely because I was keeping that console at my parent's place to have something to do there despite their terrible internet connection.
