It will sell moderately well, will however underperform compared to the huge ballooning production costs and only barely break even. It will also be simplified in several respects to it's predecessors, and simply be a worse game. It's failure will be the final nail in the American video game industry and finally plunge it into the huge crisis that's been looming on the horizon for a while now.

Simplified how?

>>714664119 (OP)
>It will also be simplified in several respects
the leaks already showed that it's borrowing gameplay elements from rdr2 which is a more advanced game than gta v, you retard

>>714664171
less overall freedom, especially when it comes to performing morally ambigous actions

>>714664119 (OP)
>It will also be simplified in several respects to it's predecessors, and simply be a worse game.
Yes
>will however underperform
No. It will sell a billion fucking copies, everyone will play it non fucking stop because the underyling game is still pretty fun, and when Online releases Rockstar will make enough money to buy a medium sized country.

>>714664119 (OP)
Don't care about this game, if I can't hang people from trees, dismember them with chainsaws, and just use it as a carnage sim I've no interest. Also I don't give a shit about story or characters, let me make a custom character and reign havoc.

You have to seriously delusional to think that GTA can fail.

publisher shillsquad has arrived, say something nice to them

>>714664119 (OP)
Maybe. I don’t think we’ll ever get an accurate sales count. It’s way too big to allow it to fail.

>>714664738
goodwill is diminishing. it will be the last GTA of any importance. one early player will find out you can't kill hookers and get away with it and the ire grows. it isn't hard to ruin something these days. people can turn easily.

>>714664119 (OP)
>American video game industry
Bait, game is being made by brits and indians.

The base game is just set-up for the online service which has proven to be a money maker. Everything will be built around moving players from the narrative single player to the monetized multilayer.

I can't wait to not buy a console for this.

>>714664119 (OP)
There simply aren't enough people in the world to recoup costs even if everyone bought it 5 times, it's simple math, but the cultists have been brainwashed and their conditioning runs so deep they genuinely belive it's going to be the next best thing since sliced bread so they don't even notice! In short, it's over. Rockstar is finished and will trigger a total economic collapse of all major countries. Ww3 will be labeled as the 'grand theft auto war'

>>714664119 (OP)
I've been sitting here thinking. GTA 4 sucked ass, 5 sucked ass, RDR2 sucked ass. Why was I even considering getting a PS5 for it? I just think Playstation is dead. Third party games have plummeted in quality. Compare modern third parties to PS1-PS3 era. There's an insane difference

>>714664119 (OP)
Yup. It’s too expensive. The market is already saturated with everyone who gives a shit about GTA V RP and the revenue generated by GTA VI online won’t look impressive at all one year out from release. It will in fact still be competing with V Online.
They’ll make money but suits will say “BUT WE SPENT MORE WHY NOT MAKE MORE” and then oy vey shut it down (read: don’t make GTA VII with a 1 trillion dollar budget)

>>714664119 (OP)
You're retarded

What was the real reason they pushed the release out to 2026? Are they rewriting the plot and redoing the missions because they realized it was too much of a corporate twitter checkmark game?

>>714665663
Apparently the last half of the game has been stuck in development hell. But I also expect its so they can release Online within the same time frame of the release and also to cut a lot of content like R* always do.

>>714665663
Are there any interviews with Rockstar devs about the game? Have we seen who's making it?

>rockstar
>american
do retards really have to spout the dumbest takes imaginable just to shitpost?

>>714664119 (OP)
>It will also be simplified in several respects to it's predecessors, and simply be a worse game.
very unlikely
every game before and after gta 5 was great

>>714664119 (OP)
It will be a massive success, but not as big as GTAV.

>>714664119 (OP)
GTA5 had already made a billion dollars from shark cards back in 2018

>>714666824
I hope 6 adds shit the same way RDR 2 did.

>>714664119 (OP)
No way you retards are still coping about GTA 6 lmao

>>714665863
>. But I also expect its so they can release Online within the same time frame of the release
Nope. You want people to build up hype and dick suck your game. You want all the journapes and so called experts to suck you off relentlessly for that first month or two. And then of course comes the nonstop clickbait articles about what to expect in GTAO....THEN you finally release it to all the drooling retards. Releasing immediately in the same time frame would be a waste.

>>714664119 (OP)
>sharkcards are more profitable than gta5
>take2 control fivem and have seen how profitable RP servers and unlicensed car/gun mods can be indirectly
gta6 multiplayer will be the most streamer friendly hyper monetized shlock you've ever seen

I can only imagine how GTA:Online will considering the technical mess it is EVEN TO THIS DAY.
A good game making a gorillion dollars is one thing, but a Online is an absolute clusterfuck without even going into the gameplay aspects.

I mean you don't have to buy it brain dead nigger. I'm not telling you to buy the game, I'm just telling you that it isn't going to fail or flop. Cope all you want ape.

>>714668126
I just want to discuss vidya on this board, is it too much to ask, you colossal faggot?

>>714667982
Just look at FiveM, the same team got officially hired by rockstar

>>714668386
How is this discussing videogames you mouthbreathing nigger. You're just posting shitty bait like a fucking faggot. How about you make a thread about a game you actually like, stupid nigger.

>>714668923

I WILL talk shit about GTA6.
I WILL talk shit about GTA5.
And I WILL fuck your mom afterwards.

The world is 80% non whites and niggers that know nothing but consume product.

It will be the best selling game of all time. Screencap this post.

This game cost over $40 billion?

Wha- no that's not what- but I- I...

>>714664119 (OP)
I think the longterm sales depend on how good the online is. Gta5 grossed so much in total because people kept buying shark cards for years

>>714669710
gatorcards coming soon

>>714665526
ive played through 3, VC, SA this month and just finished 4 yesterday. 4 is definitely the best one of those, despite the driving being complete ass

Lol. Lmao even.

>>714671101
Driving is like one of the most important things, it's like saying "yeah the shooting sucks in the shooting game but otherwise it's the best game."

>>714671398
but imagine the fallout if it actually does
take2 might even have to sell the gta IP

The few times GTA6 could fail if something really catastrophic happens that's beyond ours or the game developers' or publisher's control.

I think it will be a huge initial success, but people will quickly realize they bought a piece of shit and this will be the final nail in the coffin for the concept of preordering video games. I dare them to prove me wrong.

Gta 6 costed 2 billions while gta online makes around 1 billon per year plus red dead 2 and those demakes.
I know you want le ebin tortatic but Rockstar will be fine

>>714664119 (OP)
probably

imo they delayed it to remove or lessen all the woke crap they had in it, since it is no longer "in". it was developed largely during the BLM days

>>714674492
>imo they delayed it to remove or lessen all the woke crap they had in it
>chuds actually think this
lmao

>>714671625
i got used to it in the end, its certainly realistic and heavy but that novelty wore off. the world itself felt the most alive and the story was more cohesive than the others and that made up for it, which is odd because im the sort of pleb that skips cutscenes

the people who enjoy GTA will enjoy what they're told to enjoy

>>714674115
i was excited for the launch of V, couldnt play online for at least 6 weeks after launch. never pre ordered a game since

>>714676741
that's the main "gameplay loop" really

>>714664119 (OP)
nah, GTA is a normie game like all the sports games. They will flock to it like flies to shit no matter how it plays or how mediocre it may turnout to be.

>>714664119 (OP)
It wont. Youre a faggot tho

>>714677164
Contrarians be like "its mediocre" yet cant name a game that does what it does but better

Vice City is such a small city compared to San Andreas this feels like it was such a bad call. Unless everything is accurately scaled now.

lol. cope.

>>714677458
Vice City is absolutely going to be bigger than Los Santos, and there's also more

>>714677314
You mean in terms of open world? BOTW/TOTK, easily, not even a comparison. Nintendo beats them.
