GTA VI Official Trailer

Nah. That twerking was impressive

Ass jiggle confirmed

But for me it’s MORE than appearance

The ocean will apparently play a huge role. Surfing etc
We got the boats on the bayou. Forget their name.
People watering their lawn.
Drunken parties on the beach
Parties on the streets
Confirmed that Social media influencer crap will be in the game too

It looks amazing
A lot of what you described isn't that amazing to me. The boats like that were in Mafia 3. People watering their lawn, I'm not sure what to say lol Are we sure this wasn't in GTA V?
Parties on the beach already existed in GTA V, but it will most likely be more fleshed out here.

BUT, given your explanation, you seem to be more impressed with the overall details / events in the world rather than the graphics, which I could understand, I just don't particularly see it in this trailer yet, will have to wait for gameplay.

About social media influencer crap, it's actually a negative for me since I can't stand this in real life already, but there was no way escaping this.

If you want serious characters, Sam Worthington and Michelle Rodriguez are not my top choice. They are absolutely generic as they come.

Michael in GTAV was perfectly fine in that sort of Ray Liotta way.
you are giving off that era 'cis white male' vibes btw.

dont judge a book by its cover. honestly, after rdr2, after seeing how they created the best protagonist of all time, i would not doubt rockstar writers. And I am saying this as a hardcore kojima/snake fan who for the last ten years has supported a Joel avatar. Arthur Morgan is that good. and he looked as vanilla as they come.

This has “this reveal trailer isn’t very good, Arthur Morgan is boring, Rockstar screwed up” energy all over it.
For real. It's like judging the games graphics 5 years before release too. Let's wait and see more about these characters before we say they suck. One of them has said 1 word. If any studio knows how to make not just interesting main characters, but side characters, it's rockstar. It's not by luck.

I'll be upgrading my 3080 for a 5090 in 2025, and by the looks of this trailer, you'll need it for the performance level I enjoy.
 
Well, this is a trailer so let's see what the actual game's detail level will be.

I'm just glad they didn't go full woke with this one, Rockstar at least were smart enough not to pull a Saints Row with GTA. This looks like a very authentic GTA experience in 2025
 
I can see MS going for the ultra money hat. Console Exclusive for 6 months to a year(huge bucks would have to change hands)... wait, no... Rockstar doesn't give a shit, I think? They want to drop this on consoles first, DLC, etc... after they feel the revenue stream is starting to taper off, drop the PC version, ignite sales across all platforms again.
MS would have to shell out big bucks to keep this off of PS5, even if only for a few months. And I mean BIG. PS5 will be at 70M+, depending on when it launches, when GTA6 hits, while XBS will be at 35M+. Take into account everything has been selling better since the PS4, as far as series go. As long as this is a good game, and not filled to the brim with woke BS, it could hit 18M-20M sold on the first two days, ~50% of which would be on PS5.

We're talking about ~$700M+ in revenue in just a couple of days of launch. MS would have to spend billion plus to keep it off of PS5 for even a month. Good luck explaining that to shareholders after plopping $70B to buy COD, whose recent iteration just greatly underperformed.

I don't know how it will impact it, but it's worth remembering that this will be the first rockstar game not written by Dan Houser.

Yeah. But imagine seeing a Tik Toker vlogging on the beach

Then going up and slitting their throats

That’s FUN 🤩

TikTok is for minorities and the underprivileged 😂 What the fuck. Zero ban. Zero callout.

Look at the avatar 🤣

Liberals really are the most unnecessary hateful fucks ever
Is "crienne" just a fancy way of saying "cryin"?

That's exactly why I stopped short, but I didn't edit my comment for the sake of discussion. It would take 500+ million for that money hat, and let's be honest here, I don't think it would happen after thinking over it, then seeing your post. This series makes enough money to start cities, lol.

The social media thing is a parody. You must be really fun at parties…. Actually from what I’m reading I’m guessing you don’t like parties, can’t blame you. You’re a fun sponge.

The character level of detail is quite lacking imo, the materials across the board is pretty underwhelming (cars, skin, buildings, etc). Most humans looking very videogamey.

Lighting and density = fantastic
Materials, texture work, polygon levels = decent

But overall it looks good.

I like the idea of playing female character!

I do wonder how much of the activities you see will be interactive. Hope it's not gonna be the cyberpunk intro montage again.

I hope there's an actual casino in this too. Was disappointed that GTAV didn't have that. (Think it got added in gtao)

Looks great. Not the best trailer song selection ever, but the alligator/ croc entering the convenience store made me laugh.

First GTA IV trailer was 2006, and the first GTA V trailer was 2011, so this fits the pattern of the official reveal being two years prior to release. I will hold out hope for a spring release a la GTA IV, but won't be the least bit surprised if it is ultimately a Fall 2025 release.

Would be cool if there is a third protagonist, I loved jumping between the three characters in GTA V. But two could be sufficient and provide the same effect. Fun times ahead.

You don't know jack shit about the characters, you can subjectively not like their designs but that's it.
And how the fuck do you come up with Michelle Rodriguez. Just because she is a Latina you compare her with her, really? They do not look alike at all.
I promise you that it's not worth debating with this guy. He will lead the argument to stupidity where he is most experienced.
 
Looks ok. Love the world. Somehow the main character feels off in this setting.
Can't point it out why. Will see. I hope the gameplay is more snapy no a samy simulation as RDR2.

I was in Miami earlier this year. One thing I noticed about the place is the number of girls I saw rockin' cameltoe was off-the-chart. Even when outside of the beach.
Game already looks amazingly detailed, but if it were to capture that level of detail, they will truly get a hats-off from me.

Depending on what rumors are true, it would be hard to pass on if the system is a success and can handle it just enough lol.

You do know the Wii had Manhunt 2 right. Like the Wii version was literally why it was so dumbed down and edited 😉
Switch and mobile are huge markets yet GTA V is not on those platforms. Adding a technically weak platform that runs at a low wattage just adds a ton of technical and QA overhead whenever R* pushes out a new feature or DLC for the live service element of GTA VI.
 
Fucking ready. Man, it the games got that much going on when I’m out walking and playing on the streets. That would be crazy. But I’m sure it won’t be. But if so. Nice. Now, I wonder if we gonna have a choice which one we have to kill? Or will this game kinda end like a Bonnie and Clyde. More likely both end up getting kill by the cops in the end and they pretty much knew it was coming

2025 is still a long time away to work on character detail

Okay, I’m stoned but I’m getting the same chills that the original GTA V reveal gave me. That fucking logo at the end, man.
Looks very current gen visually; I expect nothing less from a true AAAA game.
Not cross-gen thank fuck, the new destruction and water (and T&A) physics are gonna be mindblowing.
Gonna be a real special time when it finally comes out. GTA VI will be a goddamn cultural reset.
Totally OK with 2025. I’ve plenty of games to play until then to say the least.

Writes a lot, says very little
I am not the one making the claim that GTA6 currently is the "end all, be all, generational leap over every game made" that the hyperbolic shiny new object crew is claiming.

There are some things GTA6 does best in class, others not so much.
Ok, but you also have zero example of anyone out doing them in this area.

Soooooooo this whole "not so much" needs some supporting evidence.

Fuck you telling me James? You making a better open world game right now thats going to out do GTA ? lol

That is one of the worst trailers ever made for a fn big budget game. I mean they literally digitized the last 10 years of real life happenings into the game :D. Protagonists (?) look a bit lame, but hell, this is just a trailer. We'll see how it fares. Story was never GTA's biggest selling point. Anyways, if the story contained two talking pigs people would also bow down and say this is the nextgen, the coming of the messiah... franchise got too big, now they are devouring themselves. At least Kai Cenat will be in the game, lol.

Agree with this assessment. would add
Animations = amazing
as always.
 
Considering that they are targeting 2025, it means it potentially might not come out that year.

But by and large, it looks quite good. Still, I find it surprising it is not coming to PC. I guess it does not help the online component.

Does anyone else think this looks boring?

Like, drop the hype for a second. Does this really look good? (not graphically, obviously)

For whatever reason, it just feels sort of... off?
I am keeping my hype in check as this is a super early reveal and may be very different on release day.

As for the content in the trailer; it's clear they are teasing some of the social commentary on modern US culture.

It can be exciting for people looking forward to see how R* approaches this.

But I'm making no conclusions other than Lucia SEEMS like the leader.

Yeah, it's nothing extra. They created the most unappealing trailer ever, but... the masses gonna love it once the consume signal is beamed into their heads, plus they can drive around the city.

The devs are massaging it for a decade. They already have tunnel vision and can't fucking tell where the light is coming from. Should've been out already, but they have too much money and people are wanking on details like, should dis guy wear red or purpe shorts? And I assume this goes on for days...
