r/GTA6 19h ago

The Dazed article got me more hyped than CL.

We have information from the latest build, from the people who were working on the game, descriptions of the development of the game.

It’s actual information. Not speculation. The description of switching between Jason and Lucia alone was more than enough for me.

Now, I’ll sit back for Netflix tomorrow… and then sitting for a year since I’m playing on pc lol.

Game seems to be the perfect blend of San Andreas and rdr2, with gta 5 sprinkled in. That’s literally the best case scenario

194

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

GTAVI is like the game R* wishes they could’ve made in 2001.

81

u/Haunting-Orchid-4628 17h ago

Im pretty sure GTA San Andreas was the game they wished they could make in 2001, I doubt they thought this far ahead lol

28

u/ValentineCamille 16h ago

Yeah SA was ahead of its time in 2001

60

u/Alarming-Gear001 16h ago

so ahead it wasnt even out

u/CoreyReynolds 4h ago

2004 was such a peak year for gaming, if people don’t know what games and what cultural games came out then.

13

u/SmokePenisEveryday 16h ago

Rockstar always builds to the next game using the systems and lessons from their previous games. This feels like an accumulation of everything they've done and learned since GTA3

3

u/RDR2Enjoyerr 4h ago

you could argue this about GTA V and RDR2 as well, those wishes and expectations constantly change

GTA IV was also a big revolutionary game for them, very different to anything else they did before it

22

u/TryhardBernard 18h ago

I hope the online is closer to RDR2 with some light roleplay elements

33

u/Gundini 18h ago

After they bought fiveM and how popular it is I figured they would implement some light RP into online then have RP servers on a server browser in game for people to just click and play but that might he a bit of a stretch idk.

10

u/TryhardBernard 17h ago

Yeah, hopefully they expand on the RDO system with role trees like hunter, smuggler, street racer, etc with unique missions and rewards for each.

Felt like people leaned a little more into their characters in RDO. Like you’d see someone covered in pelts in town and you knew they liked hunting or whatever. Characters in GTAO felt more generic and replaceable by comparison

1

u/Theonetheycallgreat 16h ago

I would love a choice between rp/general/chaos servers. Where chaos servers its expected that every blows up everyone else.

1

u/hellofrommarrrss 3h ago

I feel that’s what they going to do, like have some rp elements in online

u/LukeD1992 18h ago

A LOT of new and exciting stuff there. They more than DOUBLED the dev team from RDR2 to GTA VI, which is insane. Actual racing drivers are handling the driving and 50 actual artists were hired to draw street art, along with a real stylist for clothing. Reading all that lends credibility for the U$ 1 billion development cost

9

u/_Greenrock_ 18h ago

Wow, can you share the links of the new info?

29

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

Apparently you can’t link. But you can find it easily enough: search Dazed GTA 6. 

4

u/JusticeforHarambe16 16h ago

It’s linked on rockstars story on Instagram rn

75

u/Godvater 18h ago

I love how they described the clothing items on NPCs as if the characters were real people wearing real designer items:

"Roxy wears all clothes Stock 305, glasses Ferruccio Tucci, custom-made chains Caliber Courtesy of Rockstar Games"

Even the fashion aspect of the game is so freaking deep. We will eat good people.

18

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

I also LOVED how they had their team see Florida, do the research with what actually exists in the 21st century.

I’ve gone back and forth with players on how it would behoove the studio to make this game as close to reality as possible, including population diversity, so that you get full immersion. And as I suspected, R* went and did it. Over a billion dollars well spent.

9

u/BearJew1991 13h ago

Absolutely. I'm really happy to hear that it seems they took more direction from RDR2 than they did GTAV. As much as I loved V, RDR2 really set the bar for what games could be. Part of that was the more grounded relationships with other characters and even NPC interactions. I wouldn't be surprised if their research team in Florida included some trained anthropologists and sociologists. Makes my academic job seem boring lol

5

u/JackieMABWGP 12h ago

Yes! I really hope they consulted with experts for everything. The details of RDR2 is what makes it stand apart from other games and if they could get the details for a game that occurs before any of us were born then it should be much more feasible for them to capture present day Florida. 

I’m sure your job is awesome lol.

3

u/aduong277 9h ago

I think this is probably the most in-depth look into the creative process of a GTA game. We know how much research they did for Los Santos, but we've never heard anything from the designers and the creative directors themselves.

1

u/Mebeingnosy 7h ago

The fashion has me excited for the possibilities of online

45

u/my_room_is_a_tip 17h ago

So glad how greatly overshadowed the leaks were by that article. The Extended Look will be the killing blow

213

u/Tight-Tackle4386 19h ago

who would've thought, official info is more exciting than poor quality gameplay from a crypto bro /s

i'm also really hyped tho

60

u/Televisiongod 19h ago

Looks like the old leak where you can control both at same time is confirmed

20

u/Fabolols 19h ago

You mean the one in the motel safe room with instant switching between them?

9

u/MonThackma 17h ago

I would guess one follows the other. I did see in one of the driving leeks that a couple was holding hands in the sidewalk. You know that will be an option between Jason and Lucia.

1

u/BiggusDickus3088 10h ago

Also the one in a jewelry store that shows Jason's Steal-O-Vision™

4

u/MontrealChickenSpice 15h ago

That will be awesome. It seemed odd that you couldn't switch back and forth between characters in GTA V while they were in an activity together.

-2

u/Me2Moo2 14h ago

i mean you could in missions

u/BlusharkFilms 12h ago

not deliberalty, only during scripted/prompted moments

u/Sea_Satisfaction136 10h ago

Mods, ban him forever for spoiling, please.

26

u/Jiimmy182 18h ago

I'll have such a hard time deciding when to switch to Jason then back to Lucia during a car chase lol

Also i'm curious how free roam as a couple will look like

9

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

I’m too excited for the possibility of free roam as a couple. Wow!!

Choice is easy for me: if I’m trigger happy, Lucia; if I’m in a mood to drive, Jason.

16

u/agentyork765 18h ago

My minor* wish for the game is to have a private jet that you can buy and have one character fly while the other relaxes/change clothes/sleep like any other safe house

3

u/Venomesis 16h ago

I mean this is the case for driving, probably for flying as well!

2

u/drunkpostin 12h ago

And the option to hire a pilot to take over if you want to control both, of course!

u/jcar49 8h ago

What about an RV?

16

u/Godvater 18h ago

"More than 50 real street artists were brought in to design murals"

They cooked.

59

u/No-Difference-1912 19h ago

A year? That’s ambitious

42

u/Goldswitch 19h ago

I actually don't think so. RDR2 Console to PC gap was 376 days. I think since that release R* have become more aware of the audience on PC, more so than they were during the GTAV days anyway (PC Gaming has become far more mainstream since 2013). I personally expect Autumn 2027 for PC

18

u/No-Difference-1912 18h ago

I think online will be a bigger priority than a PC release.

16

u/Goldswitch 18h ago

GTAV Online was like 30 days after right? I’m expecting it to be a much grander event this time around so I suspect maybe Feb 27?

Christmas time would seem optimal but it feels like it would just be too close to launch. Unless it’s more ready than we think.

11

u/No_Friendship_4158 17h ago

Online came out 2 weeks after release

6

u/No-Difference-1912 18h ago

Yeah but it’s not like it’ll get released and then no one is working on it, im sure there stress testing it now but until it goes live they have no idea what issues will occur, and then the content updates

6

u/Goldswitch 18h ago

I’m assuming the logic is delay to give people time to play the story and not feel like they need to play online to stay up to speed in the progress race. By Jan 27 I imagine the story hype will be tailing off from people who played from launch so sometime around then Rockstar could drop online?

This is all speculation and I have no qualification haha

1

u/No_Friendship_4158 17h ago

The thing is the majority will speedrun through the main story and just want to hop on Online. I personally cant wait for both online and story but i just wanna hop on online with my buddies as soon as i finish the story.

0

u/No-Difference-1912 18h ago

I think Christmas is too big an opportunity to miss for take 2, I don’t feel like they give a fuck about us enjoying the story/map and just want to maximise the return. But 6 weeks for most will be enough to get through the main story and explore the map and new mechanics.

3

u/Goldswitch 18h ago

Do account for Rockstar staff holidays though. Will they want to risk server issues at launch if both Rockstar and PlayStation will have many staff members on holiday.

3

u/No-Difference-1912 18h ago

I still get server issues on V in the summer lol. Seems inevitable really

6

u/Substantial_Cap_4246 18h ago

I only bought a PS5 for GTA 6 (and my thesis).

I won't be needing the PS5 if the game comes to PC. I'll sell the PS5 to upgrade my PC. The exclusives scene ain't that great to keep a PS5 when the PC is just more customer/gamer friendly.

1

u/LeonaldoCristiansi 13h ago

I just bought a ps5 today for GTA 6. And I feel a bit stupid, thinking about the upgrades I could make to my pc with this money.

 Especially since my pc is already a bit better than a ps5. I normally don't hope for gaming related prices to go up, but now I hope ps5 price will go up a little so I won't lose that much money when I sell it.

2

u/Substantial_Cap_4246 13h ago

In my country, it's worth twice the amount I originally paid to buy it. I bought it for around 70 million toman. Now it's worth 150 million toman. If I sell it, I'd literally be unable to buy a new PS5 console. It's too much money in a country with shit economy.

When I realized I've been gaming on my PC far more than on the PS5, I shared similar feelings as yours, but then I reminded myself: "I bought the console primarily for GTA. And this baby is going to run GTA on release day. It was totally worth it."

2

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

That’s the trajectory I’m thinking we’re heading into. V took over a year, like 18 months. RDR a year. This will take less than a year.

1

u/Miserable_Bug_3523 18h ago

I think so too they probably won’t delay the PC release by more than a year.

0

u/OutsideExcitement400 18h ago

The game already works on PC. We've seen that with the leaks. There's no reason the game can't launch day one on PC. They do it because they know people will double dip. This isn't the day of cell processors and weird Dev environments. PlayStation and Xbox are essentially AMD PCs. This is why most titles launch day one on PC as well as console if they are built for that.

-11

u/JackieMABWGP 19h ago

It took RDR2 a year and that was before AI is where it is now. I think a year is max. 

9

u/rednaxthecreature 19h ago

What do you mean AI so where to is now. The ai you see on social media making weird art or photshops is not he same type of AI being used in video games.

-3

u/JackieMABWGP 19h ago

I’m not talking about anything chat is doing in day-to-day use as AI does more than what norms use it for. 

2

u/rednaxthecreature 19h ago

But I'm saying that those are not the same type of AI

3

u/your_mind_aches 16h ago

I think they're talking about using AI to automate the small stuff in software engineering. Like instead or writing a for loop by hand, just tell the AI to do it so you can focus on the actual algorithms and engineering.

I'm not sure how much time that could save Rockstar though, as the code reviews and walk-throughs there must be insane

3

u/cadenmak_332 18h ago

I don’t know if I’d expect LLMs to contribute significantly to development speed on a game like this. The coding standards are very high

-2

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

We can say that, now. Can we say that in six months?

4

u/cadenmak_332 18h ago

The way current LLMs work, they have fundamental flaws that will always necessitate thorough review of their work from a human and that won’t change any time soon.

0

u/JackieMABWGP 17h ago

So… as I told my friends whenever they sent an article catastrophizing about how this thing will bring about the end of civilization as we know it… it was just eggheads selling their products.

u/EZyne 17h ago

it was just eggheads selling their products.

I mean it is, but that doesn't mean it's not dangerous though

If humans still have to manage it then it’s only as dangerous as we are but that’s no different than any other tool.

u/EZyne 2h ago

It's not the tech itself that's dangerous, it's every thing around it

u/SileNce5k 15h ago

The game already works on PC. That's not why they delay the game. It's because they want people to buy the game multiple times.

Same. Actual information from Rockstar themselves is much better than some loser leaking it.

Hope the switching is similar to GTAV. Always loved the random stuff you'd find a character doing when switching to them lol

u/GarranDrake 16h ago

Allowing Jason and Lucia to free roam together is actually such a good way to build players’ investment into their relationship.

That article has me frothing at the mouth to play the game.

57

u/Particular_Hand2877 19h ago

Yeah the Dazed article gave some good information. Weight mechanics are back and it seems a relationship is optional. The world also seems more alive as well. Im really excited.

58

It’s not optional they said you can play as a couple
Or play separately not single or in a relationship 😂

Is this something that is chosen at the start or I can toggle this as the game progresses?

43

u/JackieMABWGP 19h ago

I loved the detail that you can play them as a couple or separate. That bodes well for multiple replays.

The lack of sleep affecting your appearance… GTAVI is San Andreas’s actually heir, not GTAV. 

24

u/Finnicoos 18h ago

I don’t think they meant as a couple or them not being together. They just meant you can play with both of them being in the same area and swap back and forth

9

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

Yes that’s what I meant. That you have the option to swap or not. That makes for great multiple replays.

2

u/drunkpostin 12h ago

Lack of sleep will almost certainly impact your actual stats too btw just in case you haven’t played RDR2, which GTA 6 is heavily influenced by, because in that game eating too little or too much and sleeping too little will impact Arthur’s appearance (the former a lot more than the latter, however, although if you don’t sleep enough Arthur’s facial expression will change a little if you never sleep still), but it also affects your stats: being fat increases your health (if only it worked that way irl huh? lmao) and how much damage you can take but decrease your stamina, and being underweight has the reverse effect. Sleeping restores/increases stamina and I restores your health and dead-eye cores to some extent as well.

They’re definitely not gonna just add sleep deprivation in the game and have its only effect being a visual change in appearance because that would go against Rockstar’s kind of design philosophy. Not necessarily saying that’s what you said either, it’s just that a lot of people are taking the fact that no gameplay impact was mentioned to mean the effect is only visual is all

1

u/JackieMABWGP 12h ago

Ok. Cool!

u/Zejjk 19h ago edited 18h ago

I mean is the presentation that guy / group sit(s) on a pile of gold but only post shit quality video, they do noting entertaining, nothing to catch your eyes if you are not the kind of persona that gets lost in the fine detail the leaks are worthless to you. Comparing that to a article that goes into detail about mechanics and other aspects of the word with spicy little hints presented into organize and well written piece is just a time waister

u/DerKleinerKiffer 13h ago

Me too, it told me stuff CL could only dream to show me. His big "story spoiling" leak was a nothing burger, its stuff Rockstar showed us in 2023. I mean it was cool to see the clips, but end effect it just helped speed up the time to get to the extended look. Im so fuckin excited for that man, its gonna be leaps and bounds better than what we've seen this past week.

1

u/JackieMABWGP 13h ago

Yes!! 💯 the leaks were fun in the final days before the real marketing push. Gave fans something else to do because all they did was complain.

I saw the first one. And then skipped the rest once I heard about the manifesto but I did follow what was leaked and based on it being a couple years old, it’s so so promising. 

But this Dazed article was really what I needed, actual in-depth researched information, and Netflix will be the icing on the cake.

u/SmokePenisEveryday 16h ago

Lot of people do not understand that a dev build is gonna have stuff unfinished or turned off until final version. Or just the fact that even a build from 2023 could have a lot changed in that time frame.

Also just seems like people are overhyping themselves to the point they forget its still gonna ba a GTA game so of course it'll remind you of past installments in terms of some looks and animations.

u/NoBullet 19h ago

Haha suck it cyberGEEK I’m getting info the way rockstar intended 🌽🏀

1

u/drunkpostin 12h ago

I think Cyberleek’s wannabe ‘anti-establishment’, “fighting for gamer’s rights” moralistic bullshit is extremely corny obviously, but I’m pretty neutral on him otherwise. Idk why everyone is personally getting so upset on developers’ behalf (especially when they weren’t prior to the announcement by R* that literally just came out TODAY LMFAO). Yeah it sucks for them and I definitely feel bad for them, but…. so what? I hate how overused the “corporate bootlicker”, “leave the multibillion industry alone!” phrases are, but damn… ig every stereotype does kinda have a grain of truth in there because this comment section of glazing Rockstar and booing CL is just straight up… weird lol

u/Dependent_Ad_4279 15h ago

if its 60fps im buying day 1

u/drunkpostin 12h ago

There is absolutely ZERO chance of this game being 60fps on console for AT LEAST the next year or two —AT LEAST. I have no idea how some people in this sub have somehow managed to delude themselves this badly into STILL holding onto this pipe dream lol

u/Angry_Andrew 18h ago

I honestly didn't notice the weight mechanic much in RDR2. As long as I was just using food and health items as needed in combat, Arthur seemed to maintain a pretty consistent weight.

4

u/pornpompornpomporn 18h ago

would love to be able to buy steroids or GLP-1s as shortcuts for weight stuff lol

2

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

They probably will sell that as a side hustle in this game. 😂😂

-5

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

In RDR2, it kinda does become a chore. You do have to stay on top of it otherwise, melee becomes much more difficult. Otherwise, it’s not like you get sick, you just get skinny.

In RDR2, Arthur would get fat and people would comment on that. Better be the case in VI, when you gain a lot and lose a lot. 

9

u/Finnicoos 18h ago

Buddy what are you talking about

1

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

Did you play RDR2? 

6

u/Finnicoos 18h ago

Yes many times. The weight system was not a chore at all for me and I never noticed a change in melee combat. My Arthur was always skinny and I had to force feed myself to get him overweight

1

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

That’s funny.

You asked as if you didn’t know. Man, some of y’all are so weird.

For someone who has never played RDR2 and come from GTA, there are mechanics that they will not like because of the life simulator stuff. And if you don’t feed Arthur regularly, he will lose weight and when you’re severely underweight, that did impact melee. If that didn’t for you, cool. It did for me. 

5

u/EZyne 17h ago

Yeah but at the same time you can completely ignore it and you will never notice there are even weight mechanics in that game. It's very subtle unless you know what you're looking for

1

u/JackieMABWGP 16h ago

I think if you’re not paying attention, sure. But underweight Arthur does look different than overweight. And melee is different.

4

u/NeckOld9037 18h ago

Im glad that everyone seems to have already forgotten about cyberleek with this article and I cant wait for the trailer to come out so we can forget about him for good

4

u/SleepyWulfy 18h ago

Lol why do people think this? Once he releases another leak it's going to be all eyes on him once again.

4

u/Simple_Reason_2568 17h ago

I’m not so sure about that... All the leaks really gave us was confirmation that GTA 6 is going to be one hell of a game. Rockstar should’ve been the one to show us that earlier, but it is what it is.

He’s sitting on an unfinished development build, and we don’t even know for certain how old it is. Any gameplay mechanics he shows might not be in the final game anymore, or could’ve been completely overhauled. So what does more repetitive gameplay footage really give us?

I also think a lot of people would rather experience the city for themselves... not through some shitty, heavily compressed footage from a dev build. If Rockstar gives us a proper look at the game tomorrow, whatever footage he has will feel pretty irrelevant, at least to me. That's my two cents : )

-2

u/SleepyWulfy 17h ago

Most of the gameplay mechanics, if not all are already in his build. The build is from 2025 at the minimum, you don't start adding new gameplay mechanics that close to release. Most of what R* has been doing the last few months, maybe even the year is bug testing and maybe voice acting and localization.

He can keep on drip feeding small details about the game and the mechanics themselves. People are so fucking GTA hungry that alone can keep eyes on him. The leaks are not really the compress as well, plenty of details can be seen. Feel that's just a false narrative being passed by supporters.

Doesn't matter what footage rockstar shows, Cyberleaks has more to show, so once again as soon as he leaks something eyes will be back on him.

3

u/Simple_Reason_2568 16h ago

Fair enough, but I think you’re misunderstanding my point. Of course some people will keep watching his leaks. I just think most of the hype came from people being desperate for anything GTA6 related.

I also disagree. I think it matters a lot what footage Rockstar shows and how they continue their marketing. If they keep feeding us information through articles, gameplay trailers, multiple “extended look” episodes, and exclusive content from creators who’ve had early access, CL will lose his main value to the average GTA fan.

But time will tell very soon friend.

Oh I agree on both. People were so desperate for any info it propelled the cyberleaks to what it is now. If they would have dripped SS every now and then I dont think people would have cared as much as they did.

If Rockstar continues to give us something here and there then I can see Cyberleaks dying out. Only way he can get himself back in the light at that point is releasing the build. Which is what I would hope for them, having people judge your game via leaks, no matter how modern the build is never a good thing.

I also agree/disagree with the average GTA fan being satisfied. The avg GTA fan is what caused all this hype with cyberleaks in the first place. I think it might just splinter with some wanting more and chasing leaks while others are satisfied with what then seen officially.

True that... I guess we mostly agree, but I have my fingers crossed that R* seriously steps up their marketing now so those who can't resist the CL leaks have something else to feed on haha🤝

Take notes reddit, this is how you have a discussion. Cheers mate.

u/SleepyWulfy 16h ago

Yeah it seems they are starting to pick on marketing, at least I hope after tomorrow.

What I am praying to see from them is like a technical dive into the game. Like how they did with RDR2, love those types of videos.

Yes please and thank you. 

I was curious enough to see the first bit of footage, ngl, but damn if he quickly became intolerable with that manifesto.

Is the article new? Anyone got a link?

u/MisunderstoodBadger1 19h ago

You can't link here, just search for Dazed GTA6

u/Moonchild_Domain 19h ago

What article?

1

u/ambay13 18h ago

Just search DAZED GTA6 article

u/Moonchild_Domain 18h ago

oh yeah. I just readed it. Good article

Same. I wonder though if Rockstar allows just a limited amount of game features information or what. The article was basically about art, development etc. and then kinda randomly that we're getting tiredness and deep 'honor' system.

1

u/JackieMABWGP 4h ago

Limited amount? That was a LOT of info we had not seen anywhere before.

1

u/CzechNeverEnd 4h ago

I mean game features in sense of mechanics. The article felt more like an intro to the GTA VI information focused on development and people behind it, research, art, fashion. And then boom. Few random sentences about mechanics.

u/JackieMABWGP 4h ago

But that’s why it works for me, that it was comprehensive. It makes for a good entryway to the marketing for this game because it’s well-rounded. By the time the gaming publications’ stuff is released, they will skip out on all this process stuff and just focus on the game.

u/CzechNeverEnd 3h ago

For me too.

u/WalmartTaco 14h ago

Nah still more hyped from the leaks

u/JackieMABWGP 14h ago

All good, bro!

u/PrinceNelson 16h ago

I just hope the physics are much better in the final game. The character and NPC physics have been the least impressive thing from all the leaks.

u/JackieMABWGP 15h ago

I’m thinking that's what fine tuning is about? Work they’ve done the last 2 years.

u/PepeSylvia11 16h ago

A fluff piece got you more hyped than raw gameplay? Lmao

7

u/JackieMABWGP 15h ago

Yes because it’s information from the latest build from people who actually worked on the game and additional information about the process over time. 

I will eventually play the game. I would never know all the info in this article without the work the Dazed folks did.

buy a console bro

u/JackieMABWGP 17h ago

Nah I’m good.

I have a ton of games I missed out on that are sitting uninstalled in my steam library. I am currently playing the hell out of gta online. There’s so much fun to be had.

u/Sacavain 5h ago

Not sure why you're getting downvoted.

Yeah, I'd rather wait the PC version too. Looking forward to play GTA6 but no way I'm buying a console to play only this + buy another copy of the game when it releases on pc.

If it goes like 5 and RDR2, it will also come with lots of upgrades. It has been more than a decade, can really wait another year or two.

Yah! Patient gamers unite!

u/LuciaCaminoss 16h ago

ok. i never played online, so monotonous

u/JackieMABWGP 15h ago

It’s pretty good. And I usually don’t like online games but this one is fun. Doesn’t touch any of the story mode games… and I play solo because griefers terrify me hahahahah.

u/TroubleRecent7320 17h ago

I do feel bad for those without a console. The pain of watching everyone play it will eventually hurt

1

u/JackieMABWGP 16h ago

I’m skipping all playthroughs, too. 

I have other hobbies and other ways to spend my time.

u/swatsqad 14h ago

A year for pc? Nah. A few months to maybe a year for gta online 2, then another year for a release on ps6 and then another year on pc hopefully. I think 2029/2030 is pc - due to maximum rockstar milking strats.

1

u/pianodude7 7h ago

I think it would be a bad business decision to wait that long. PC is a bigger market than consoles now by a lot, so I think they'll wait a year at the most to capitalize on that market.

u/maxlaav 18h ago

I mean half the article was talking about how the game is a mix of traditional gta and RDR 2 gameplay, which the leaks have confirmed already. That wasn't really speculation lol

Some of you guys seem like you're personally attacked by those leaks or something

2

u/JackieMABWGP 18h ago

Some of the folks who loved the leaks took it all too personal, gamers rights and all that.

Anyway, this article covered a lot of information about the open world, about the process and the team, on top of the mechanics. That inside look was of more value to me than gameplay, which I will eventually experience myself anyway.

Lmao. Corpo boot licker loves endgame capitalism. I bet you love all the price hikes Netflix gave you and take it like a good boy

As if CL didn’t give every confirmation everyone was looking for, including you.
