Do you think that GTA 6 is going meet your expectations?

I expect a dense world with good graphics and shitty gameplay so yes it will almost certainly meet my expectations
 
Mine are pretty in check.

GTAO took off and I expect the part of GTA6 that I'm interested in (the single play) to suffer because of that.
 
I have no expectations. I don't plan to buy it until it's around £30, so that'll be in around 8 years. 😅I've been "gta'd", out for a number of years with no desire to make it my main game in anyway shape or form.

Also 60fps Ps5 Pro/Pc only I'm betting.

Haven't had expectations on GTA since 2001, when GTA3 was such a massive disappointment after all that hype, I never wanted anything to do with the IP again.

It'll be fun to watch how many passes the game will get for its shortcomings, and what names whoever raises the slightest critique at it will be called.

Of course not. People that believe that don't understand game development, and haven't learned anything in the last 20 years. But that doesn't mean that what will be in the game isn't gonna be impressive.

Although i agree with the pessimism because it really look a couple of gen better than what we have, many, many people say that rockstar almost never downgraded its trailers...

And if there is one dev that has a chance, is the one with infinite man power, time and 2 billions budget...

I expect absolutely zero player freedom when it comes to how you do a mission outside of free roam.
I want to be very wrong because it's their biggest weakness in how they design games.

So, partly no.

I have very low expectations as RDR2 was such an awful game and GTA5 was very mediocre as well.

so, I assume it can reach my expectation, but that's not hard tbh.
basically, if it is a mediocrely designed game with a decently designed open world, it reached my expectations.
 
It certainly will meet mine, that's for sure.
More of the same misanthropic slop, raking in more stupid millions and driving more and more studios to emulate its drivel-tastic, no-taste tactless "style". The last 10 years on repeat.

My issue with modern R* game design is they both want to make sandbox game and linear uncharted style story driven game at same time, but those design crash with each other hard.

Back in PS2 GTA they give you simple mission to kill this person but you had total freedom how you go about killing that person, to me that's what sandbox game is all about.

yup. GTA3 told you that there's a guy you need to kill, and then you did that the way you thought would work the best. oh, he's in a car? maybe find a spot where you can snipe him out of it... etc.

in modern Rockstar games you get a fucking game over because you dared to cross an invisible line the devs arbitrarily put there.

it's way too jarring... and then there's the whole issue of how absolutely awful the controls are due to an absolute gobsmackingly high amount of animation priority and reliance on an animation AI that was never originally designed to be implement on playable characters.

With that amount time, budget and pedigree I'm expecting one of the most impressive and awe-inspiring products ever released, not just videogame. So good luck to them lol.

Oh wow I loved GTA3 - it changed the game for all sandbox games for me.

I like GTA VI is going to take it to the next level. High hopes.
 
Rockstar always exceeds expectations. They are spending the time so I'm expecting a mind blowing product. I also expect them to meet that with all the time and resources they've used. Can't wait for May.

I remember when i played the first game where you could run over people with a car that had ragdoll tech, saint row 1, good times.

next gen euphoria should bring the spectacle to a whole new level, if rockstar doesn't fuck up.
 
Surely it will.
What i need to hold expectations is the Online. Expecting it to become what GTAOnline is today off the bat is unreasonable- Online sucked for a while and was unstable. Hopped online after we moved to PS4 and it continued to expand to what it is today. Im hoping the gap is alot smaller this time at launch. Hopefully no money glitches early to not completely fuck the economy.

No doubt. R* one of the few elites in the industry. If RDR2 alone doesn't make me have high expectations, then I don't know what would.

That is true, but check the trailer another time, and pay attention to the extreme amount of custom animations on the beach. Not only is this amount crazy, they're also ridiculously realistic, while also having this many npc's at once. Of all the devs out there, Rockstar is the one that has the highest chance of doing it, but at the same time, i just don't see why they would. It's just too damn much. And that was just the beach section, so you'd assume the rest of the game has as much attention in custom animations, which makes the whole thing completely ridiculous. It's just too much.
 
The world and gameplay will be amazing, but I think the story may be questionable (I hope not). I mean RDR2 was amazing, but are they still the same rockstar? I know their programmers must be, because the game trailers looked crazy good in regards to graphics and a more realistic looking world.
 
I dont have expectations, I have hopes and if my one hope isn't met, it won't be a game I consider purchasing:

60 fps.
 
Virtually everyone phoned in their work this generation, so part of me is expecting GTAVI to follow trends. However, what they've shown off so far is already a generation ahead. If they can deliver that at scale, then yeah - they'll meet my expectations.

Unfortunately, I think that says a lot about the state of the medium, where there is precisely one developer left able to actually delivery next-gen games during the actual generation - and they need a billion dollars to actually do it. Industry's cooked.
 
as long as it has "GTA" on the title its insta buy day one for me. its literally my most favorite series ever, I've completed every main GTA out there including GTA1, GTA2, even GTA on GBA
 
They will do what they always seem to do. Release it right at the end of the hardware cycle, taking extreme advantage of it like nobody else, then release better versions on the next hardware cycle and PC a year or so later. So it will probably be the most impressive PS5 game ever made, just like GTA5 was impressive on the PS3. But a year later, nobody will care about the PS5 release and they will be playing it on the PS6 and PC. I am guessing my current PC will run it like shit and either I will need to buy a new PC or a PS6 to enjoy the game.

Dude i rewatched that trailer dozens of times, i'm well aware of how impressive it is.

But unique animations are only a matter of time and manpower, and rockstar has both, if i was you i would be more preoccupied about how npcs are gonna react when you interrupt those perfect animations.

Nothing is too much for rockstar, many of the microdetails in rdr2 are absolutely mental dude, stuff that any other devs would ignore.

They are beloved because they think about these things:




You could say that they had no reason to do that when 100 players around the world are maybe gonna discover that detail, and yet they did it anyway.

Visually? Probably, yes. From a gameplay point of view: We will see. RDR2 was pretty disappointing in that respect (and I dropped it after some hours). Very pretty game, though.
 
Tremendous production values with amazing graphics, and i am sure the world will have something new like better dynamic weather etc or what not.

But the core gameplay itself? More of the same.
 
GTA never was fine art. You can expect it to do what GTAV did except prettier.

The plot of those games have been complete nonsense since forever. RDR2 and GTAV stories were a mess of platitudes and I expect nothing else from the new one.

I have like 360h in rdr2, i know about all the detail on there, and it's why i said that Rockstar would be the only ones that could do it. But i still don't believe that they will. In RDR2, you might see many different animations, for the most part, they aren't anywhere near as complex, and most importantly, your screen isn't full of npc's, all of which have super advanced and realistic animations. I want to be wrong, but i am just not seeing it happen, and the beach section is makes me not believe that what's shown is real.

Rdr2 is also a ps4 game, we are in the next gen now, we didn't get a huge upgrade in cpu and ssd for nothing.
I know most devs didn't showed up this gen tech wise so expectations about actual nextgen features are on a an historical low level, but rockstar hopefully still have the pride of making something really impressive.

About the number of hours in the game, i saw countless of people with way more hours than you noticing new details after all this time, the chance you saw all of them is really, really small, not with that "amateur" hour count :lollipop_grinning_sweat:

Btw, didn't i already said that i'm with you about the pessimism? I'm just playing devil's advocate...

People with way more hours are usually into its online portion, and i only played its singleplayer. But yea, of course i haven't seen everything, but am perfectly aware that they've done way more than what others dev do in their games. Still, i don't believe what was shown of gta is real. To me that looked like a target video to show vibe and how big and lively the world is, which makes perfect sense for the reveal trailer.

As far as details, no game remotely touches RDR2.

That was done on PS4. With new hardware and tech that has come, GTA6 will set the bar on what dense and detailed open world games can be in the future.

Only gta6 is gonna beat rdr2 like rdr3\gta7 are gonna be the only game that is gonna beat gta6.

Rockstar basically only race against itself in term of care for details.
