GTA 6 seems to be a unicorn, its united people in a way you never see in today's rage filled, AAA space.

No culture wars.
No gender wars
No woke vs not woke.
No complaining about framerate, performance, graphics,
No complaining about price or value
No complaining about music choice
No complaining about hair.
No complaining about platforms.
No complaining about casting choice.

Just pure raw hype and praise. Rare

I searched through 20+ pages and couldn't find a single negative one. In fact not even one that wasn't all out praise lol

Game will be gigantic

goes on and on and on..

what has been the closest thing to this this gen?

I just added a negative one 😎
 
Isn't the first comment literally a negative comment?

Or am I missing something?

Edit: didn't see the spoiler my bad, but still contradicts the whole thing!

The first one in the OP isn't from GTA6, its from another random AAA game

related to the first comment, I like GTAs but I dont LOVE GTAs, the last gta I liked was San andreas, I think gta 4 is super clunky and stiff, gta V kinda the same...the R* way of gameplay. I dont know how to put it, put I like R* games cause there are fun in a 1 and done way. But they dont play well... so like an interactive movie. I feel like most r* games are super sluggish in the gameplay department, the auto aim is way too strong. Im sorry, english isnt my first language.

And theres plenty more where these came from.


In the current landscape, literally everything can be made political.

People will try. They will fail.

There were some tweets that Elon was promoting last year pointing out how Lucia looks trans and not feminine enough. They were ratio'd almost immediately by the fanbase. This didnt happen with other fanbases because the fanbases were fractured by devs trying to subvert expectations or push an agenda. Rockstar is simply giving fans what they want. Death Stranding 2 comments are also extremely positive.
 
If GTA has actual good gunplay, I wouldn't be surprised if GTA online eventually becomes bigger than Fortnite. The hype for this game is easily the biggest of any entertainment in history

So exhausting seeing so many people acting like this crap is the second coming. I played GTA5 to completion, and I found that the open world...is kinda boring. This setting is so unappealing. I see enough of this shit on tv already. I don't understand the obsessing with this franchise.

Publishers and devs have been fighting GamerGate for a decade now and people are sick of it. There is a reason why Spiderman 2 fell off so fast and Insomniac didnt even bother with DLC for it.


So day 1 with 60+fps, ultra settings, path tracing, ultrawide, mouse&kb, wheels, free online, VR mods???

It's the only franchise that has actual good open worlds.

You're losing out LOL!
 
I'm actually surprised that we don't have the usual "the game is gonna play like shit" takes we hear on gaf or other vg places...
 
It's 2025...the game will bother people as GTA always does. The game will still be the biggest entertainment release in history just like GTAV was.

I know im just pointing out that the whole premise of this thread is straight up wrong.
Even on GAF weve had posts not impressed by the last trailer.
Let alone the comments sections and twitter where most videogame discourse happens.

OP Posits this game is a unicorn because:
No culture wars.
No gender wars
No woke vs not woke.
No complaining about framerate, performance, graphics,
No complaining about price or value
No complaining about music choice
No complaining about hair.
No complaining about platforms.
No complaining about casting choice.

I just realized ive probably been had and this thread is actually satire.
Damn.
Pretty much all his points have been criticized already wityht he last trailer.

what has been the closest thing to this this gen?

Well Clair Obscur is has the highest user rating on Metacritic........of all time

Near literal Universal praise.
I very much doubt even GTAVI is gonna score above 9.8 user score.
 
Casuals think it plays amazingly. 🤷‍♂️
Depends on how much you like heavy controlling characters and animation priority and realism.

Not everyone like weightless characters that skate on the ground and can turn 360° immediately, many apprecciate having some weight and inertia.

Opinions are like assholes, many pople also think that the past 2 zelda with their archaic lock on system, ultra basic dogshit combat, weird control scheme with the run button on the freakin triangle\y and without a dedicated evade button like 99,99% of modern action games are the pinnacle of gameplay, so...

Some people like controlling "drunk lagged" characters... 🤮

It could be slow paced and controls great, like GR Wildlands.
Or we can have a game every 10 years that play completely different from anything on the market and if people doesn't like it, they can play the remaining 99,99% of games.

Rockstar games have a precise identity and not every game is for everyone.

GTA controls like dog shit in the context of slow paced games.

Last of us and Resident evil are slow paced and feel much better.
For you, hundreds of millions of people enjoy the added weight and inertia compared to tlou2 or they would not buy the game, good luck trying to convince rockstar to change their way to do things.

Do you people seriously think the game would do these numbers if everyone hated the gameplay to death?

Bullshit. You get stuck on the terrain more times than you can count. One thing I hate about some games, is the terrain detection and how stupid your character can be and not climb up an ankle high stone, but then leap up with ease when you didn't want them too on terrain that's taller than your character.

The best terrain detection gameplay I've ever experienced in a game with how it felt and your character reacted to the most minute little divots and never got immersion breaking "stuck" was Death Stranding.

This "completely different from anything on the market" doesn't have to be with "poop" controls, even less with added 400+ms of input lag like in RDR2. Why do the cars controls so great but the chars so crappy??

You do?? I don't remember that happening but if happens, it a different problem. The char is not a retarded drunk in there.

They likely enjoy it for other reasons

Who said shit gameplay? I said shit controls not necessarily the same thing. I believe if the controls were more responsive the game would get even more praise.

You're shouting into a void, you do realize that, right?

Like i said many people don't find the controls that poopy or maybe they understand what rockstar is aiming for even if the result is not for everyone.

I don't know what to say to you, i take some input lag and inertia over so many games with weightless characters that feel like they are skating on ice.
 
They could anytime go back to GTA 3, VC and SA controls that are way better.

Nothing breaks current/next gen graphical and simulations games immersion as we advance like 25+ year old twitchy/arcadey controls.

For someone who boasts about everything needs to be the "best of the best" visually, you sure want to play dated control schemes in that veneer.

I never hear these complaints about car or flight simulation games from the PCMR types, I wonder why that is?

Same here. As a graphics whore, I can definitely admit to finding it absolutely fascinating as a work of industrialized audio and visual art that is just so impressive, I mean it's essentially perfect from a rendering standpoint. That being said, the actual game itself just doesn't appeal to me at all, and these types of games almost never do. They're just not for me, though I recognize their immense quality and respect it.
 
The Youtube comments section is much like Twitter, Instagram and Reddit: Terminally online retards writing absolute garbage.
 
Thing that is not the case with tons of games like Wildlands.
Even wildlands feels arcade-y compared to something like rdr2 to me, also ubisoft animations are nowhere near rockstar level, even without considering the euphoria engine that make rockstar games unique.
 
So no Max Payne 4 with MP3 controls for you then. 🤷‍♂️
Mp3 still has that rockstar flavour dude, max is super weighty to control, if that is arcadey, what the fuck is something like vanquish or gears? :lollipop_grinning_sweat:

Go back to max payne 1-2 and the difference is gargantuan, even just recovering from a dive on the ground feels completely different.

Input lag and retard drunk character are not only not simulating anything as in first person camera GTA V eliminates some exaggerated inertia that has in third person and simulates and immerges much better.

max is super weighty to control
No, he is not. 🤷‍♂️
