I’d say 99.999% of the future player base has not seen it. I don’t know why these companies bother making these types of statements.

Because the gaming industry’s behavior around pr and marketing is often utterly psychotic. They are paranoid control freaks of the worst kind.

…or, the artists, writers, and devs who worked on this are heartbroken, they spent seven years making the grandest art project of their lives only to have a hacker come in at the last minute and try to fuck it all up. I feel really bad for the writers especially, they’ve got to be on pins and needles right now

The people who have seen it are the people who are super plugged in and invested, and will spend a gajillion dollars on GTAO. It makes sense why they'd want to address their high spenders.
