At this rate, the PS6 will be out by the time this game is ready.
I was so desperate to play the same driving and lock-aim shooting missions again with different cutscenes between them too.
Yeah, I’d imagine the remaining staff revolting because they did some union busting and fired a bunch of people will do that.
Keep in mind GTA V alone literally made them BILLIONS.
Oh my, guess all that “not” union busting mess is backfiring on them big time.
That’s literally what happened, the remaining devs are revolting.
Karma fucking exists LMAO
Where is it reported that the remaining staff are revolting?
Remaining developers have begun openly protesting the company.
I don’t see mention of remaining developers protesting, only IWGB and the reading of statements.
I can’t find anything in the Bloomberg articles that say that either.
I think a R* dev said that anonymously but I’m not sure :|
Did they try to deny the obvious union busting?
Yeah. Said the fired workers were sharing company secrets on discord instead of having union chats.
The company secret being they would fire anyone who tried to form a union.
We’ll see what comes out because firing people for trying to form a union is extremely illegal here and could lead to every fired employee getting a year’s pay in one go
Remember you are still supporting them by pirating it and talking about it. Boycott for real.
OotL: why are we boycotting Rockstar again?
This time? Union busting.
Ah. Thank you for informing me o7
All I care about is when I can download the cracked PC version.
Had my money on a 2027 release for the PC after the first trailer dropped in late 2023. Looks like i wasnt pessimistic enough even though i accounted for a console exclusive year and a rather big delay. Maybe by 2028 the AI bubble will have popped and GPUs are affordable again.
The first time it was announced for Holiday season 2025, right?
Anyway: For AAA releases I always assume [Announced release year + 1 year]
It always get’s postponed for one year. So far every occurence has been confirming my hypothesis.Even if the AI bubble bursts by then, chuds will probably come up with some new bullshit to keep the market inflated, just like scalpers, crypto miners, and NFT weirdos before them.
I remember when GTA 5 came out, everybody was excited. San Andreas had been HUGE. Both in map size, and in game sales.
I bought it day 1. Then the PS4 came out, and GTA5 for PS4. By this point we all knew what GTA5 was.
My friend wanted so badly for me to buy a PS4, just to buy GTA 5 again, just so he’d have someone to play with.
Then PS5 came out. Same story.
I actually bought a PS4 at some point. Regret it. Barely ever played it.
Then I bought a PS5. Regret it. Barely ever play it.
And now that I know how microtransaction laiden GTA is, I’ll be skipping GTA6 entirely.
Now I see them firing a bunch of people. A few days later I see GTA6 is delayed until this time next year.
Why would anyone be excited for a series that now peaked 21 years ago, and has only had 1 other release in that time?

I understand why youre not interested and I also don’t care for it, but it’s disingenuous to say it isn’t one of the most hyped games of all time. The first trailer has 268 million views on youtube and that’s only on the official channel. People are excited.

Did you forget about GTA 4?
…oops. Yes I did.
Understandable. It was a huge step down from SA in terms of world activities. 5 only managed to rise to levels above it in the online portion (and only through hella years of additions).
4s driving and shooting was better than SA but everything else makes SA better. I wanted then to marry the two together for the best GTA possible but they never did and probably won’t ever
I still play GTA Vice City and Vice City Stories… I never looks back or forward from that moment.
I’d take GTA 4 or 5 over San Andreas, easily. And at this point, a large part of the appeal is GTA Online for a ton of folks; not me, but a ton of folks.
4 was a masterpiece. The story is supurb.
Red dead 2 was insanely good
I liked the DLCs as well. I know why they don’t do them anymore, as online is a money printing machine. But I really liked them and wished they had done more.
The world exists, so just add a story with a bunch of missions => nice DLC. But since they make such an obscene amount of money from online it makes no sense for them to do any more.
The lost and damned was one of the best stories that GTA has ever had.

How are other publishers supposed to avoid the release date if it keeps changing?
It’s actually close to around the time Activision releases Call of Duty games, and that year’s CoD will be MW4. I HOPE all the Infinity Ward higher ups are having heart attacks right now, after what they did to the CoD matchmaking they deserve every game of theirs to flop. IW peaked with the original MW series, and maybe the writing team for Infinite Warfare, everything they did after that was abysmal dogshit.
Well, it keeps getting pushed back, not forward, so that helps.
It really doesn’t. Because now that is lost revenue for a month/quarter for no reason at all.
Gasp
They have 2 years left before GTA6 becomes DNF 2.0.
DNF 2.0?
Duke Nukem Forever. The game used to be a meme due to the insanely long development.
Where does Elder Scrolls 6 fit in there? I have a feeling it’s going to go even longer in development than GTA.
Elder Scrolls 6 has been in development 1 year less than GTA6. They originally planned to start in 2013, but didn’t actually start until 2015.
We got a third GTA delay before GTA6 😭
Well that’s a great sign.
Eh, fuck it. I have no need for more “douche and a turd sandwich” “both sides suck” humor in the 2020s and I have zero desire to give rockstar any money after their blatant union busting.
This is going down as yet another game that’s stuck in development hell.
Lol. there will be aliens on earth for sure before GTA 6 will be released
Well just an extended wait time for me then.
