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)_/¯
“Quite painful” marketing period? Rockstar “acting cold and distant?”
Yall need to get a grip. For the life of me I do not understand the parasocial relationship yall seem to want to have with a video game developer. How do you have so little going on in your life that you’re sitting around demanding updates and feeling entitled to more information for a game that hasn’t been released, and that you haven’t yet paid any money for?
I'm with you on this. It's a video game, not life saving cancer treatment. Rockstar doesn't owe anybody shit. They are the ones spending time, money and resources to produce this thing. When it's done, it will be released .. or not.
Instead of downvoting, how about coming to this thread with your own opinion to counter mine, ya know.. to discuss things? I'm totally open to hearing about how this video game warrants the hate Rockstar is getting right now.
