Do you think there's someone on /v/ who genuinely thinks this will flop

>>712797125 (OP)
People get insanely excited over new GTA games, yet whenever you play them you quickly realize "this is barely any different to the previous game".
But people still get excited and buy it in record numbers. How does Rockstar do it?

>>712797125 (OP)
Nobody thinks this trash is going to flop you stupid faggot you're just posting this so you can claim people thought it would flop when it inevitably sells a billion.

If RDR2 didn't flop, then nothing Rockstar releases will

>You never played GTA.
What a dumb accusation. Stop posting

>>712797859
Impressive graphically and technically, the game is boring as fuck, it gets really old after a few hours, even RDO with all the QoL improvements is still slow

Is GTA truly too big to fail?
Like I can't imagine any scenario where the game doesn't sell gorillions one second into release.

>>712797475
what did anon mean by this

Not buying it

>>712797178
how does it feel knowing you will always be a lonely geek while well-adjusted normal people will have fun regardless of your seething?

>>712798113
It will be a failure for T2, they expect revenue on a higher proportion than V, it is obvious they will add sharkcards to single player so they must be projecting earnings in the billions.

technicly it did flop in T2's eyes because the online simply wasn enough of a gacha scam like GTAO wich is why RDO stopped getting updates very early on and never got story updates

Great cope. See you next year dummy

>>712798417
And it's so obvious they expected it to be as big as GTAO, the entire mode feels incomplete, I am quite sure if they added steampunk to it would have helped a lot, they had the SP mode to go all serious and shit, contrasting it with a wacky online mode would have made a bit more money but they were set on keeping it as realistic as possible well knowing the fans loved the Zombie DLC

Delusionional, the story or gameplay might not be received well the weeks after release that's entirely possible but saying VI will be a flop commercially is just laughable.

>>712798841
no one ever said that but k

>>712798617
because they made dogshit games
and i don't think SF was a flop (still a terrible game)

RDR2 is still one of the most impressive game ever and most people would more than happy to have that bit faster and set in Florida

If this game flops the entire industry is going under

>entire game will be on youtube by then, so the only reason to buy it would be the online
>it won't be enough to cover for the super inflated budget and a decade of development
>concurrents will be at a level of your average indie studio, 300k tops with a rapid decline when a game of this magnitude needs Back Myth Wukong and Elden Ring numbers.
>the "great success" spam will continue
>but online mode is super p2w
>it's a success but the shilling must continue
>it's a success but they paid youtube to push gta videos in the algorithm
>it's a success but we must increase the price of shark cards
>it's a success but the only content patches are for the online more to add more expensive shit
>it's a success but we will not share the sales numbers, our target numbers and overall concurrents at the same time
>it's a success, total majority are just playing it on playstation, trust me
>and then it's suddenly a flop because it didn't cover the billions of budget in time so they have to openly admit to now having to make online even more p2w

That only started with V. It was a visual upgrade with a complete downgrade on gameplay. And it was released every new console generation so people got tired of it.

Rehashed same exact gameplay as 5 that turns into a second job online if you're not a paypig.

>>712799917
woah how come everything is irrelevant

I played San Andreas, Vice City, 4, and that's it.
Never completed any of them. Never got far into the story of any of them, except maybe 4.
I had no interest in GTA anymore by the time 5 was out.

I get the appeal of the earlier games: fucking around in a sandbox because you can't do any of that in real life. Fun for a teenager. If you're an adult, you can do most of those things, except in a game you don't have to deal with their consequences. 12 years old me would shoot and drive over innocent passerby npc, looking to test different weapons and vehicles, fighting the police, trying to max out the stars, thinking of how insanely this experience contrasts with my life.
If I were to do that now I'd think "their lives don't matter, they're not even worth killing. cars are just cosmetics with different base specs, they all behave the same. weapons either shoot bullets or bombs, only difference is auto/manual.". So this leaves the games value only to its story. I doubt it will be engaging. I doubt I can stand a 200h long story/cutscenes about some randos' plights when I already have my life to care about. I already have my own issues and I'm supposed to care about someone who doesn't even exist. It's not like the story will have infinite depth and branching paths, there won't be an ending where you contact some alien civilization while another makes you resurface atlantis. The spectrum of ending is very narrow and so will the plot, which will just be a careful mix of sex, drugs and violence.
I don't believe 80% will make it far into the game, and probably 95% of players won't complete it.
Might as well just be a TV series at that point.

>>712799968
Yes, visual aspect is irrelavant and complex physics simulation is irrelevant if the depth of gameplay is a puddle, which is exactly what gta gameplay was in 5 and I do not expect them do deepen it in any way.
For another case of this look at Elite Dangerous. Amazing flight model, great graphics. All you do in it is space trucking and grinding for a top ship to hopefully one day win a pvp battle when you meet a guy that doesn't play in offline mode.

>>712800189
wtf are u talking about, you do not need to grind shit in GTA lmao. It's a criminal sandbox where u just fuck around.

>>712800173
>95% of players won't complete it.
This is the most delusional take I've ever heard about GTA

>>712797125 (OP)
Are people really gonna buy this Spic simulator.

>>712799968
graphics irrelevant because the best graphics are on PC and 99% of the population don't have a PC with the specs required to run the game "as intended"
physics irrelevant because physics is a solved problem. you don't get value out of better hair physics or car physics. people just want to run over npcs. you won't have fully destructive environments, but even if that was the case: how is that innovative?
driving: this isn't a car game, just go drive your fucking car, or are you unironically a kid?

>>712799628

Lol.

>>712799917
>Irrelevant
only to you retard

>>712800440
lowest iq take possible

>>712800440
Graphics for consoles will still be best
Physics is relevant in terms of immersion and fun gameplay, the way people fall when u run them over MATTERS. Destructible enrionments would need a rocketship of a computer to run smoothly, thi isn't miencraft.
The game literally is called grand theft auto, it is about driving. IT has better driving than most of the "racing" games out there.
>just go drive a car
yea yea let me speed down in a 40 zone with 150 good idea, retard.

>>712800240
>You don't not need to grind
In online yes you do. You will not gaslight anyone. It's literally paypig shark cards or grind.

Offline was not a sandbox ever since SA post game gang warfare was never replicated. There will never be a reason to play it for the sandbox over Schedule 1.

>>712800560
It's supposed to be a deep life simulator sandbox RPG, and GTA never really achieved that.

>>712799418
>>712799565
some guys just want to see the world burn

>>712800173
95% is a bit too much, I think 30%

>>712800686
No you don't need to grind. You have to do minimal shit to enjoy the game. Never spent a cent in sharkcards but had massive fun with friends still.

kek

>>712800925
Okay then why should I buy this driving simulator over Grand Tourismo?

>>712801328
Because you can't run over NPC's in Gran Turismo, you can't get out of the car and shoot, there is no story, no substance whatsoever and, most importantly, no godtier radio stations.
GTA was never intended to be "RPG". If you want RPG you can try RP servers btw.

>>712800302
7% of players completed Oblivion (released in 2006), a game with a 25 hours long story.
Reasons often cited for low completion all culminate in GTA6:
- open world is a distraction, the sandbox aspect means people just fuck around without ever progressing
- the longer the main story, the more people will drop as it makes the story lows and buildups last longer
- people don't have as much of an attention span as in 2006

Now imagine when every retard on the planet with a console or pc buys it because "it's le most expected generational impacting game :%))))". Sure it will sell a lot, because of player expectations, but when people realize what they paid $100 for, the following games will sell less and less. See already all the people that defend the game because it's a "great shooting/driving simulator". I don't think 5% of them will beat the game.
That's also why they don't make DLC that expands on the main story: because no one fucking plays it. Pokémon does it, Xenoblade does it, because those are games where a significant amount of players play to the end. You don't make DLC that 90% of your players can't use even if you give it away for free.

>>712801715
Oblivion is literally quest after quest, GTA is a sandbox.
They dont release DLC's becuase it is more profitable to pump money into online, since GTA type games are more fun online.

>>712801496
>it's better because you can kill and have all those rpg elements but it's not an RPG! It's STILL purely a car riding game just because we don't want to put an actual work in and innovate! Modders will fix it for us anyway!
You have lost your own script.

Nah Nigga, I said something that I liked the switch 2 on the internet and got a ton of replies about not getting gta6.

I dont even like gta :(

It won't flop, but it will do much worse during it's first year than if it wasn't a hostage timed exclusive to the PisS5. Stellar Blade effect on a much larger scale.

/v/ as always the lowest IQ website on the internet, you shitskins just have no clue of what people want, and when something doesnt flop despite your "predictions" you spend years throwing a childish temper tantrum like you did with Doom Eternal and RDR2.

/v/ stick to playing your phone gacha games, your casual FOTM hero shooters, your millennial writing furry bait VNs, and all those other games for 13 year old emo girls that you fags slurp.

>>712806781

It will sell because the game is of the highest quality.
