No but ill probably check some streams out just out of pure curiosity. I hope there will be RP that happens in this. That was by far the best thing to come out of gta5 for me.
Voted “Not Interested” while guessing it was the least common option, turns out it’s close to 60% ! I guess this audience is a little biased towards playing indies, maybe that’s why.
I don’t think I’m going to get GTA 6 at all. I have a grudge against Take2 since they had Gearbox update all the old Borderlands games right before Borderlands 4 came out to include an anticheat software and the EULA now states that any info the anticheat scrapes can be sold to their marketing partners. So they turned all of those games into spyware. Rockstar and Take2 both stated that the already over-monitized GTA Online is actually under-monitized, so I fully expect the GTA 6 online to be more of a fucking nightmare than EA’s Battlefront 2 on release. And I also hate how as soon as Rockstar saw how profitable GTAO was, they cancelled the single player DLC and shoehorned all that shit into GTAO.
I’m tired, boss. It’ll be a cold day in hell before I spend money on a triple-A game again
they cancelled the single player DLC and shoehorned all that shit into GTAO
I didn’t know that, but always suspected it.
Yeah, they never outright stated it, but this was all found in one of the big data leaks from Rockstar. The first was mostly finished and involved Trevor working with the CIA, doing a heist on the casino, and going on James Bond/Austin Powers like adventures. The second DLC was a zombie survival scenario (probably going to be like RDR’s Undead Nightmare) with Micheal and his family. And the final DLC basically just had concept art of Franklin being sucked up into a UFO.
All the cars and the casino heist from Trevor’s DLC is in GTAO. The cars modified with sheet metal and spikes from Michael’s DLC got repurposed into a Mad Max type of update for GTAO.
If they get a physical copy some day then yes. Until then, no.
Lmao no
Since there is no such answer in the poll, I’ll just comment: no, I won’t.
Hmm, isn’t “Not interested” the answer you looking for then? I thought of this answer as a catch all for anyone who won’t buy.
The thing is: I am interested. I just want to wait for a week or two, hear what real people think. Magazines and YouTube reviewers can’t be trusted imo. So I might buy it, but I’m not planning to buy it on the launch day.
In that case your answer isn’t “no I won’t”, more “maybe if it’s good”. The “Not interested” Is for anyone who is not interested into buying the game. But I agree that an option for waiting after launch, but not necessary for the price, is missing.
This is my first poll ever and I butchered it in multiple ways.
I’d have been a day one customer if they’d bothered making a PC version and hadn’t arbitrarily blocked Linux users from GTA Online a couple of years ago. Now they can get fucked.
I’m planning to buy it, once it releases on PC.
I am a fan of the games though, and have been since the first one. GTA 5 had a great amount of replay value (a lot of my friends, and myself, have replayed it a few times).
If someone isn’t a fan of it, and they didn’t enjoy the story and such, then I can imagine it to be an easy pass. I’m looking forward to the madness of it lol.I only have a pc so I’ll be waiting .
For me, the satire was the best part of the GTA franchise. After San Andreas the quality of the writing really suffered IMHO.
I got V for free from epic, didn’t feel with me. If okay this for free only.
For me San Andreas was the best game. The mechanics were solid and the game had a whimsy to it that was completely thrown away with 4 and 5. I didn’t think the story writing was particularly good, but the characters and missions were super memorable and fun.
I don’t think I’ll get it. Maybe if it’s on deep discount on PC eventually, and it doesn’t have horrible DRM, and the reviews are good.
I didn’t really like gta5 that much. It’s very on rails / Simon-says in a lot of the stories. I guess they’re going for something cinematic. I’d rather have something more like an immersive sim.
Absolutely not, not ever of my own doing.
Nah. Never been interested in the IP, and I’ve come to hate open-world games. They’re always the same sh*t with the same repetitive tasks. How can a game be a game when most of its gameplay is litteraly a list of chores in-between driving sequences longer than a loading screen?
Rockstar open worlds are more like chapter selection screens, where you choose between about 3 different action missions at any given time. Familiarity with the open world not only grounds it in a sense of place but also helps with navigation when you’re plotting a getaway. The checklist of chores is more of a Ubisoft thing.
Maybe when it goes on sale
No, but I get the sense this is a skewed audience. I would not be surprised at all if this is one of very few corners of the internet not 98% invested in it.
