“Don’t boycott GTA 6. Win justice for the people who helped make it. We spent years pouring our hard work, skill, and creativity into making GTA, and we want people to experience the universe that we helped build,” former developers said. “That doesn’t mean we want to let Rockstar off the hook.”
This guy does not understand how capitalism works.
This guy’s brain is truly cooked if he thinks buying the game will hold Rockstar accountable, and not just financially reward their shitty practices.
Is it still boycotting if I was never going to buy it in the first place?
I‘m not boycotting GTA6. I simply don‘t care about it.
I hope they win their lawsuit. But I am certainly boycotting this game and I encourage everyone else to do so as well. Rockstar has become the thing they used to satirize. Of course this game is going to be massively successful. But the more we can cut out of their sales, the better the whole industry will be. I mean shit, these assholes are actually trying to have you pay for a Netflix subscription just to watch their advertising of this trash. And that’s on top of a $100 price tag for the full game.
$100 for a revokable license is straight filth. Digital ownership is important, but as a physical collector, not even having the option to buy physical is the easiest pass I will ever take. Especially for a series that has not had any significant innovation in two decades.
Fired Marathon and Destiny 2 devs supposedly said similar. Hmm…
To bad not spending 100 dollars on game especially one that has no disc.
Wonder is the devs could slip a Linux port of the game out with a portable hard drive. It would be a shame if someone accidentally uploaded the game off said drive to the internet.
I just had a vision of devs sneaking into a server room and “hacking” the server to copy data onto a drive and somehow getting it out of a building with more security than Fort Knox. I’m sure it had a theme song.
Maybe if that world was coming to PC, I’d be able to experience it.
Rockstar’s average time between console to PC is ~5 years, if it ever comes at all.
Not saying you should or shouldn’t buy it, but their track record is consistently 1-2 years.
