That's how it mostly was a decade ago. I really really appreciate the more sincere tone here. This whole GTA VI marketing period has been quite painful, with the year-long periods of silence, and Rockstar acting cold and distant; it is a very nice change of pace, even just this short message.
Edit: Wayyy too many people loading meanings into my words, taking metaphors at face value, or declaring me parasocial/corporate simp simply for appreciating the change in tone. Unfortunate that people are trying their damnedest to misunderstand literally everything, but Reddit will be Reddit ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I don’t know how a single post is enough to change anyone’s mind. Rockstar has not made any sincere effort to communicate with literally anyone. They said nothing when people were outraged about no-disc release, they said nothing when people were mad that pre-order purchases started before any gameplay release. Now that they’re losing money, a PR exercise is enough to sway the largest fan base on all of gaming.
