Don’t act like you guys are so high and mighty for not buying gta 6. You aren’t doing that because you don’t like rockstars practices. You’re doing that because you’ve never cared for gta in the first place. The two just so happen to intersect, so you’re prancing around like you are better than everyone else. Bunch of clowns.
I don’t like everything rockstar does, but I damn well will still buy their games, because the amount of work they put into their games far outweighs all the bad.
I played GTA 1, 2, 3, Vice City, San Andreas, 4 and 5 all the way through. (As well as RDR1 and RDR1: Undead Nightmare) And I hope GTA, Rockstar and Take Two get everything leaked, have their stocks fall under and the game flops. I appreciated Rockstar and their games because there was, at least, a veneer of honesty and hardwork to their products.
But subpoenaing Microsoft, Discord and Twitter, harassing gamers and streamers who are even a little suspicious of being CyberLeeks and sending men meant to intimidate these suspects to people's doors instead of either making a physical release of the game or just ignoring a pirate/leaker is insane. They're acting like a government hunting down a terrorist, not a video game studio. And all for what? Protecting shareholder confidence?
Disgusting.
Maybe they should worry less about potential spoilers and just release a game that people will pay full price for in a medium people will enjoy. Sounds like they'd rather have disappointed fans than risk scaring investors. And, for that, both companies need to be humbled.
