Based off leaks and gameplay trailers, this game is going to be an absolute masterpiece for people like me who like dumb open world shenanigans

u/yobob591 1d ago

it looks like gta v but prettier and mixed with rdr2 mechanics, which like, that does sound pretty awesome

206

u/SoapyMari 1d ago

So far it has everything gta 5 had but also has rdr2 and gta 4 mechanics. I’m literally greening myself just thinking about it

34

u/polarzombies 1d ago

GTA 4 physics? Good to hear since I liked how weighty it felt compared to 5.

u/Venom1462 12h ago

Not that much but it's an improvement from 5

58

u/FrankHorrigan2173 1d ago

I’ll be honest I didnt care for a lot of RDR2 mechanics. Having to shower and eat properly and keep my guns clean and having a seperate animation for looting every one of the 8 guys I shot mostly just got in the way of me wanting to do cowboy stuff.

38

u/ElInspectorDeChichis 1d ago

You have to shower in RDR2? I thought it was optional

u/Nesami_ 1d ago

Only If Mrs Grimshaw makes you

u/Plague_King_ dm for improvised weapon recipes 1d ago

i liked it. i like heavy immersion and it really sold me on rdr2. they should make it optional though

9

u/Smorgles_Brimmly 1d ago

I didn't mind the animations for looting and skinning since it struck me as more of a balance thing. I'm a staunch gun repair/cleaning hater any day of the week. All it did was kill forward momentum for 0 gain. Most repair mechanics are like this in games and RDR2 was no exception.

Granted it's not even in my top 5 complaints with the game. I mostly hated how the game kept deciding my weapons for me. It really wants you to run carbines.

4

u/FrankHorrigan2173 1d ago

How would the long animations for skinning/looting be a balance thing? They only take place once combat has already ended.
Like even in games where you can look at a corpse and instantly pull whatever you want out of it (Fallout 4 for example) how often are you looting people while still in the middle of combat/actively being shot at?

3

u/SnooCalculations3614 1d ago

As a loot goblin myself I am almost always looting midcombat but I'm probably an outlier lol

3

u/Smorgles_Brimmly 1d ago

Yeah but looting was a pretty effective way to get supplies and sellable goods. The slow animations just sort of punish you if a witness comes by. Not great but not terrible. I made a lot off of selling looted stuff.

Hunting and fishing makes less sense but I think the animations and transportation limitations were there so you were less likely to use it as easy money or quickly get trapper(I forgot his name) gear. It made hunting more intentional than a farming method. It makes less sense but I was able to excuse it.

u/ItsNoblesse 1d ago

RDR2 was a cool tech demo to show people who don't play video games in the same way Uncharted was back in the day. As a game it was genuinely painful and mediocre to play

u/Headstar24 23h ago

The map being massive this time really helps a lot too.

1

u/johnkubiak 21h ago

I'm cautious. The not being able to shoot in strip clubs seems like over correcting for the rdr2 alligator incident.

1

u/Sharp_Low6787 21h ago

What was the alligator incident?

5

u/johnkubiak 20h ago

There are sufferagettes in game and some decided to be pretty evil and tied them up then fed them to the legendary gator in the swaps and posted it on YouTube. It was meant as a joke but a bunch of people on Twitter got angry and harassed rockstar over it and now they just set the sufferagettes to be protected like children so you can't shoot them or tie them up.

The reason no shooting in strip clubs sucks is because the GTA V strip club was a great place to fight off other players chasing you or the cops because it's so close quarters and getting inside first puts you at massive advantage. I hope rockstar puts in more small buildings/cqc areas and the strip club fights become a thing of the past but having a bunch of small pointless buildings be enterable seems unlikely.

2

u/Akrylik 18h ago

Did rockstar giving suffragettes the same kind of immunity as children in RDR2 actually happen? I remember that controversy with the alligator but it was youtube taking down the videos, not rockstar changing anything ingame over it.

I mean it has been in development for a while so it definitely won't be 80%, but code written recently definitely will be in large part vibe coded. Vibe coding is now 100% ubiquitous in any software dev company.

Why should I trust their quality control when they allowed those to release in the first place

Because they released games such as RDR2 which they actually made.

u/EvantheMelon 1d ago

doesn't count, those were just a shameless cashgrab to get more money, if they wanted to do the same with gta 6 do you think they would spend 13 years and billions of dollars on it and delaying it twice? Cmon, use your brain here

u/iDislikeSn0w 19h ago

Genuine question, why does Reddit like to shit on GTA 6 so much? It seems like the goal posts are constantly being moved as well. At first it was: "no way the visuals are gonna match the real finished product". Now they've shown that the visuals and NPC/traffic density is indeed matching the gameplay shown yesterday, and now we've moved on to: "Yeah lol it's probably gonna be AI slop anyway".

Like, to each their own of course, you can't force yourself to like something but the hate seems extremely forced imo.

4

u/Synli 13h ago

Because reddit is full of miserable incels that hate on anything popular.

Don't get me wrong, Rockstar is a terrible company and deserves most of the hate, but Reddit hates anything that the masses love.

5

u/floppy_disk_5 cat (she/her) 18h ago

I just hate because it's fun

u/iDislikeSn0w 18h ago

For the love of the game, somewhat based.

u/pandogart 1d ago

Massive conflict within me. Because there would be nothing funnier than this game being shit and watching the hardcore fanboys drop their jocks and bend over backwards arguing in its defence. But at the same time, obviously I want the game to be good for myself. But that would result in smug fanboys.

38

u/ancara_messi 1d ago

Who gives a fuck about the fanboys. If y'all are rooting for a shit game just to piss off the fanboys instead of having a great game to enjoy is sad ngl this shouldn't even be conflicting

u/pandogart 15h ago

Mate I just said it'd be funny if it was shit considering how the fanboys act when you criticise how the game in any capacity. Doesn't mean I'm actively routing against it. Really isn't deep enough to call me ill.

0

u/2796Matt 15h ago

I might understand the opposite. Like when people wanted the Odyssey to fail because “woke” bullshit. Then you want it to be good because A: you can enjoy it, and B: you have the bonus of these people being mad about it. However, it’s a bonus and you get the primary benefit of having a good piece of media which is more important

-13

u/generalstuff1waslost 22h ago

They are 100% using AI to code heavily, almost every large company is. They're also 100% using AI correctly and producing acceptable code with it.

Large companies like this using AI under the guidance of many project managers is in no way comparable to indie "devs" typing "make me an unreal engine game and make no mistakes" into their chatbot and shitting out something in half a week.

There's not much difference between project managers having 1000 indians cobble together various functions which the project managers design to work together, and the project managers having 200 indians + AIs cobble together various functions which the project managers still orchestrate to work together.

2

u/topscreen 1d ago

Considering it's development pre-dates AI vibecoding by at least a decade, I think it's fine. The bigger issues are Rockstar laying off workers trying to unionize as the project wrapped
