>Saints Row creator admits that GTA 6 is the only game that deserves a $100 price tag for its high quality and magnitude of production.
That’s what Chris Stockman, Design Director on the first Saints Row game, insisted in a recent exclusive interview with Esports Insider.

>>723353953 (OP)
hes right you know

>>723353953 (OP)
bow to king bitches

>>723353953 (OP)
>high quality
Is out already?

>New Saints Row never ever (even if one was made it'd be shit)
>Saints Row 1 PC port never ever
>Saints Row 2 PC patch never ever

>>723354893
Literally everyone who isn't a brainrotted ill individual knows that it will be high quality game.

>>723353953 (OP)
lel. 4 and 5 sucked ass so where do this retards get off. I still haven't played a game that deserved the $70 price tag

>>723354893
No, but it's a Rockstar game.

This game I have not played, is not out yet, is so high quality it should cost more than anything else.
>gamers are so low IQ they WILL fall for this stealth marketing

>>723355003
but I gotta be contrarian on /v/ and pretend it will suck

>>723355012
>4 and 5 sucked ass
says you and like 5 other schizos online. kys.

>>723355027
So is GTAV.

>>723353953 (OP)
This stupid fucking game is going to make billions, and be the most boring game ever, mark my fucking words.

>>723355169
>stealth marketing
Yea Rockstar paid off Saints Row dev to "subtly" market it for the masses. You're ill get help.

still thinking about the dev that died from cancer trying to port SR2 to PC correctly

>>723355304
GTA V was good, but it was also flawed. However despite those flaws it was still good.

>>723355304
Which is being played even now, after 12 years, by millions of people.

>>723355250
Everyone knows the series fell off

>>723355382
>Spent the last days of his life working on the patch
>Patch will never ever see the light of day

>>723355327
Ok, but how can we measure boringness so I can get back to you?

>>723353953 (OP)
I'd pay 200 bucks for it, I know the single player will be a good time and the multiplayer is going to be the focus of the game, it'll be amazing

>>723355472
Anon, /v/ is not everyone.

>>723355472
>Everyone
Stats, reviews, sales, and engagement say otherwise, schizobro.

>>723355516
>the multiplayer is going to be the focus of the game
Not a good thing, I want single player DLC in my Rockstar games again. Them not making an Undead Nightmare 2 for RDR2 is a crime against humanity

>>723355504
>how can we measure boringness
Just play RDR2.

>>723355414
>ad cattlenem

>>723355634
nta but can you genuinely tell me why 10 hour DLC is better than a living online mode that keeps getting new content and updates? If they get the online right and fix what didn’t work in GTA V Online players get an evolving platform, ongoing events, new systems, and fresh reasons to log in. That’s far more value over time than a short burst of story missions. For many gamers, a well-supported online mode is simply the better deal.

>>723355634
>tfw no Lamar dlc

>>723355739
Played on release and still get back to it from time to time. Don't get your point, sorry.

>>723355634
Well unfortunately shark cards made them more money than God, so you better believe they’re going to be focusing on MP.

>>723355739
I like RDR2, but minor actions like picking shit up and looting bodies having lengthy animations attached to them makes me want to shoot myself. Sure it looks nicer, but it makes me actively not want to loot shit since it's going to take forever. Especially bodies after a gun fight. An ideal compromise would be a choice to keep the animations or disable them and just have the PC lean down and swipe/pat at whatever they're grabbing/looting (like in RDR1)

>>723355901
dont you need to spend millions on sharkcards in that game?

>>723355936
>Trevor was supposed to have a spy DLC
>There was going to be a zombie DLC
>There was going to be an alien DLC
GTA Online becoming the cash cow it did was the worst thing to ever happen to Rockstar.

>>723356047
I'm playing since 2017 online on/off and I never spent a cent. Still had tons of fun.

>>723356109
>worst thing to ever happen to Rockstar.
To you, not to Rockstar.

>>723355967
My point is that it's fucking boring.
The gun play is boring, riding horses is boring, even lasoing people is boring. RDR1 was superior in every way.

>>723356306
I disagree

>>723355634
WTF howcome their house is clean and they don't live in poverty like me? Thats not realistic at all.

New trailer when?

>>723356336
Good for you, game is still a slog. Just because the story was good doesn't mean it wasn't a borefest to get there.

wild how much detail Rockstar puts into their games. I bow.

>>723356524
Is that dried pussy juice?

>>723356417
white boy summer next year is so comfy.

>>723355027
Rockstar hasn't come out with a good game since LA Noire.

>>723353953 (OP)
No matter how hard suits try to gaslight me, I won't ever pay more than 60 bucks for a game.

They want GTA at $100 so they can price their garbage at $80 and call it a deal. Wake up you sheep.

>>723356460
Gunplay, physics, details, and atmosphere are unmatched. I'm sorry you didn't find it amusing but for me it was a great cowboy experience.

>>723356621
Don't worry VI won't cost more than 69.99

>>723353953 (OP)
We don't know anything about GTA6 and Youtube is down.

>>723353953 (OP)
>some industry faggot yapping that the price of games should go up to $100 so they can then increase the price of their respective games as well
And I'm supposed to care about what this shilling faggot says?

>>723356568
Handprints

>>723356738
Never said the game didn't look great or had amazing detail, I said it's a boring game.

>>723356856
No one cares about Saints Row anymore. The series creator just said honestly what they think about their "competitor".

>>723356883
What would GTA VI need so it doesn’t feel boring to you?

...And no matter how high quality GTA6 is, as soon as it's out, people will completely stop talking about it one month later, and it'll only be evergreen relevant when its own version of GTA Online goes up.

>>723356830
>We don't know anything about GTA6
We learned some shit from the leaks, like there's four endings based off two separate 'honor' like meters.

>>723357169
>people will completely stop talking about it one month later
emm, no.

>>723355003
Everyone said same about CP2077 "It's made by CDPR, haven't you played Witcher 3?" etc.
Good to be wary. Hype responsibly.

>>723357212
emm, yes.
People don't have the attentionspan to linger on media that isn't constantly-updating, even something that's been hyped for literal years will falter in a shockingly short amount of time, like Silksong.

>>723357292
...you really just compared CDPR to Rockstar?

>>723357341
No one around me knows Silksong. Everyone knows about GTA, even my 60 year old man.

>>723356978
Yes. And their "competitor" raising their prices means that they can in response raise their prices and yap about 'keeping the market competitive" or some other bullshit yap just so they can line their pockets. If anybody else tried to jump from $70 games (KEEP IN MIND THEY JUST FUCKING RAISED THE PRICE OF GAMES FROM 60 TO 70 THIS FUCKING GENERATION)...they'd get laughed right out of the fucking industry. But if everyone dickrides GTA/Rockstar, to retards it makes sense. In the past, the price of games have always taken at least 2 generations to see a price increase. 7th generation seen the price increase to $60. 9th gen seen a price increase to $70 games. Immediately jumping the price next gen WILL hurt sales....and jumping from $70 to $100 will literally be suicide. If the plan is to push people to subscription services...then this is a GREAT plan...but if the plan is to make more money it's suicide. People already BARELY buy games as it is now and opt to only buy 1-2 games a year OR play free2playslop...increasing prices like this is just suicide. I'll be here when the price is finally released and we all see it's $70 base game, so I can say I told you so for the millionth time.

>>723355003
What the fuck does "high quality" even mean? sounds made up like AAAA

>>723357453
Ever heard of inflation dumbfuck? 70$ for the most anticipated game of all time is literally nothing. Also what makes you think that Saints Row will sell for the same price as fucking GTA? The whole point of this was that he believes ONLY game that deserves it is GTA.

>>723355327
What games do you find fun?

>>723357169
>its own version of GTA Online goes up.
So like...a month later? The game will be all over /v/ for a while, get used to it lil bro

>>723357345
Yes.
The hype was on same levels. Don't be blinded by brand loyalty.
Unless you have played GTAVI yourself of course.
Also don't get me wrong, I'm not a tortanicfag who wants it to fail. I hope it's good, but I'm always worried when people start becoming brand/corpo-loyalists.

Hype responsibly.

>>723357107
Pretty much just GTA5, but improved.
The gunplay was solid and the missions actually felt unique and fun (for the most part, SA definitely had some very unique missions for it's time), only thing they really needed to get better was the driving and destruction of the vehicles. The driving was no fun at all, you couldn't just go all out and still make it to your destination in one piece, most of the time I felt like I had to drive like I was actually driving, unless you're playing Franklin, and even that wasn't all that fun. Also, cool it on the realism, I don't give a fuck how a normal person would turn around or move while I'm in the middle of a shoot out, I play games to escape reality.
None of this will happen though, if RDR2 thought rockstar anything, is that retards will drool over the most hyper-realistic shit for some reason, and call it good.
Just fucking watch them add some stupid shit to driving to make it more "realistic', and in turn a slog, which is boring. Wouldn't even be surprised for a second if they make adding fuel to the vehicle a requirement.

>>723355003
Outside of meme HDgraphics what exactly is so high quality?

>>723357610
I haven't found a recent game that I can say is fun to me. Only one I can think of recently is Helldivers 2.

>>723353953 (OP)
I mean yeah, I personally don't think they will charge 100 for standard though but it's by far the only game I would pay that much for if I had to.

Will games in general improve after GTA6 crashes the industry(with no survivors)?

>>723357853
Didn't happen with 5, so why would it happen with 6?

>>723355414
mainly because of FiveM and mods.
GTAO is just pure garbo tier

I hope GTA VI is more like RDO, I preferred the pve focus and how they handled defensive stance play, also the limited map/radar blimps was amazing.

>>723357714
1)I'm a loyalist since 2001 and I have never felt disappointed.
2)>The hype was on same levels.
No. See pic rel.

>>723357958
That's a lot of indians and brazilians

>>723357292
you're so fucking mentally retarded it's hilarious
rockstar is one of the last companies that still live up to their name
Imagine if blizzard never turned into nu blizzard that's basically rockstar.

Also we have gameplay leaks of VI already it's basically san andreas immersive gameplay + RDR2 gameplay mechanics which is literally a recipe for S tier KINO

>>723358015
Or it's just much more popular and has way more hype than cybertranny 2077, which has the worst driving in an open-world game ever, amongst other major issues.

>>723357810
Core gameplay and its systems, world simulation, physics, audio, storytelling, stability, etc.

>>723357724
>mongoloid retard wants no skill senseless garbo games
go play any other modern day slop if thats what you want little lad

>>723358065
>rockstar is one of the last companies that still live up to their name
RDR, both of them, are dogshit games.
you are just making massive baseless assumptions about the contents of the game.

>>723353953 (OP)
vice city was the last gta game I played. I was tired of it after that.

>>723356417
small chance either next month or december (and most likely preorders)
100% chance by february

>>723358361
you're welcome to your shit opinion even if it's absolutely wrong, little lad.

>You can carry only a limited number of weapons
>You can carry all the weapons in the game at the same time
Which do you prefer? They're most likely going with the first one, which I have mixed feeling about.

>>723357292
Comparing CDPR to Rockstar 1:1 is a category error. Their histories, tech stacks, and live-ops experience are not the same, and that matters when you’re predicting whether a gigantic open-world sandbox with online ambitions will hold up. Skepticism is fine, copy-paste pessimism isn’t analysis.

>>723354956
>>Saints Row 2 PC patch never ever
https://github.com/kobraworksmodding/Saints-Row-2-Juiced-Patch
This isn't some band-aid solution like Gentlemen of the Row. It's the real deal. And it's being used to port all console DLCs to PC as well.

Rockstar are the kings of this industry bruh. They can do whatever the want. There is no franchise bigger than GTA. No bing bing wahoo, no pokimen, no nothing. If GTA6 fails it'll take down the whole industry along with it. Only Roblox and those other games that kind of exist in a world of their own will survive.

I wish you faggots would just let this series die

>>723358436
GIWTWM

>>723358361
I'd be more inclined to say it could be bad if their previous game objectively had bad-mid reception or some kind of controversy. But RDR2 has a 97 metascore and 75 million in sales. GTAVI has a 97 metascore and 200 million in sales. Until their resume is actually blemished and not "well I don't personally like it even though I'm obviously in the minority" then I can't agree with you because you're being delusional. Again, if they had a Cyberpunk 2077 tier fuck up like CDPR had back 2020, I'd say you could be right but they haven't yet. Try not being disingenuous for once.

>>723358471
limited weapons is already confirmed and your car acts like your "horse" like in RDR2 so you switch out weps in your trunk.

>>723358436

sounds like the problem is that you don't get out enough.

>>723358517
Why? Why are you so upset that people enjoy dumb open-world mayhem shit?

Like steal cars and run over nogs? Good idea I'll be right back didn't know it was possible thanks

user error on your end lil lads
maybe ghost of yotei is more up your alley?

>>723358471
I wasn't using 70% of weapons in GTA 5 either way so I don't give a shit. It could be more cool to take "gear" with you, and choose what to bring with based on missions, or mood.

>>723358696
>pozzed
I don't care about nonsense, I'm here for gameplay. sorry chud.

It's cool they made Jason (Not!)Ryan Gosling. Hope you can give him tats and shit to match his look in A Place Beyond The Pines.

>>723353953 (OP)
why should I care how much it took to make when its all ugly mutterican world and visuals
its not worth my time or money

>>723358536
>200 million sales
>minority
well the majority of people have never played or care about them. popularity has never been a metric of quality.
if you want to talk about popularity then you must also agree that minecraft is a better game.
are you here admitting that wii sports is a better game than RDR2? and far better than RDR1, that terraria is a reasonably equivalently good game to RDR2 and significantly better than RDR1?

is this your argument?

>>723358696
yeah its so pozzed the trailer was full of half naked attractive women and men

dumbfuck retard

>>723358547
Ah, love the idea that I have to constantly backtrack to my car or be forced to take my car literally everywhere if I want to switch from an AR to a sniper or rocket.
And you faggots will actually defend this.
>b-b-but muh realism!

>>723358581
>GTA series (all titles combined): ~455 million copies sold as of August 2025.

>Minecraft: 300+ million copies sold (officially announced at Minecraft Live 2023).

>>723358691
we are talking about RDR.
cars don't exist in RDR and you aren't running over anyone
if you can't read don't even speak.

>>723358908
You gotta strategize and think about what you may need before leaving your car nigga.

>>723358829
>Hope you can give him tats
You can do it in V, think it's not gonna be possible now, for some reason...?

>>723358912
>combined titles is popularity
>call of duty, all titles combined, 500 million sales
>pokemon, all titles combined, 490 million
so its less popular than call of duty and pokemon?
retard

>>723358980
I guess I should have specified face tats. I don't GTA V had those but I could just be forgetting.

>>723358975
Or, I could just not? You know, maybe the game should prioritize being a game and letting me do whatever the fuck I want? Like literally every game before it?

>>723358908
why are you backtracking then, dumb faggot?
just keep your AR on you

it's going to work like RDR2 so you'll have at least 4 weapons on you at all times, 2 strapped over each shoulder, 1 smaller firearm concealed and 1 melee weapon concealed.
leaks showed there's also a system to carry a duffel bag full of supplies

>>723358228
Unfortunately, none of that is a guarantee for actual "Fun"

>>723353953 (OP)
Where are all these fucking cockgarblers coming from?? They're everywhere, these days! They all desperately want gta6 to be priced a hundred bucks, the fuck??

>>723358228
All shit we know nothing about because, as was the anon's point, the game isn't even out yet.

>>723358975
>A game that thrives on constant shootout chaos
>Strategize
You're a special kind of retard, huh?

>>723358860
>popularity has never been a metric of quality.
It has been in gaming
Minecraft is a big game for a reason
So is Wii sports games (family niche)
I am not comparing games to each other, especially in different genres. My point was that you might be expecting a similar thing that happened to some dogshit company to industry kings.

>>723359167
video game companies are greedy as fuck, I don't think anyone wants to pay more but a lot of us are thirsty as fuck for this game so if they get greedy most of us are just going to bite the bullet for literally one of the biggest vidya releases in history

but i'm pretty sure standard will not be 100 and they will leave the 100+ price tags for faggot special/deluxe editions

>>723356109
I'll never forgive them for not making sn undead nightmare 2 for rdr2. Absolutely and utterly unforgivable.

>>723358921
Ok my bad, run over people with horses and shoot up a bar. My point still stands, you had a retarded argument.

>>723359093
>>723359175
Use your brain and strategize, personally I welcome the added 'difficulty'. I hope they make ammo counts a bit limited as well.

>>723358912
>>723358985
lol gtafag did not think that through

>>723359124
Of course, nothing more fun that repetitiveness.
>Duffle bag
yet another retarded addition when they could have just kept the weapon wheel, but hey, got to make sure their muh realism crowd gets a stiffy.

>admits
Disgusting obvious psyop shit.

>>723358985
It might as well be the same with call of duty, yes, what's so surprising?
Pokémon is more popular than GTA, because of the anime.

>>723359306
Too obvious anon.

>>723355414
Only because it's the only game of it's sort.

>>723357570
Even heard of something called diminishing returns retard? We've reached a point where games aren't getting any better or looking any better brain dead faggot. Nobody with an actual brain is paying $100 for any base game. GTA VI will be $70 asswipe.
>inb4 your brainlet ass bring up retarded ass Deluxe Fuck My Ass Editions
Yes, people buy those $100 editions because it comes loaded with a bunch of gay ass mtx they were gonna spend money on anyway. Oh what's that, $100 Edition comes with gay ass fairy outfit and 10,000 Buttfucking Coins? Ohhh man we sure do have to buy that Mr. AAA Corpo Man, thanks a lot!

I don't know why you mouthbreathing faggots think it's gonna happen but no amount of dick eating and groveling is gonna make $100 games happen.

>>723359031
It does.

>>723358114
>which has the worst driving in an open-world game ever
I was with you until this. This shit is on par with the dog shit driving in Cyberpunk, if not worse than Cyberpunk's driving. You can also throw Saint's Row and Watch Dogs in there as well, as the driving in those games feel stiff and boxy as fuck.

>>723359317
So game can't innovate anymore? How long do u want dumb fucking wheel? New addition seems interesting.

>>723359273
You're a jeet shill. I know you are, because 99.999999 percent of everyone on planet earth will refuse to buy it at that price.

>>723359238
so then what ARE you saying.
make a point and stick to it, because you have pointed out sales as a reason they are good and said nothing else, now you are backtracking on the sales claim, so you have said...
games are good because you say they are good...?

RDR is a dogshit game that people play to live out fantasies of things they could just do irl, it doesn't offer gameplay, doesn't offer things you otherwise could not do, its a slow boring game with awful gameplay that tries to sell it self on a bad story.
you are making massive completely baseless assumptions about the contents of GTA6 and since you have backpeddled about the sales = quality claims, why would anyone think any of this speculation about its contents would be real.

>>723359341
>what's so surprising?
The argument being made was "no franchise is bigger than GTA". Now we're saying GTA isn't even in second place.

>>723359494
>Sleeping Dogs 2 never ever
Such a shame, with how long it takes for a new GTA came to come out now you think more devs would try to capitalize on the demand and make GTA-likes.

>>723359283
same that pissed me off so much and EVERYONE expected it when OCT hit it was just braindead obvious to do it, literally free money printing
I really enjoyed RDR2 and even RDO but rockstar did fuck up really bad

but i'll admit even with how much they fucked up, it was still lightyears better and more enjoyable than all the slop garbage that continues to release from other companies.

>>723359383
Why can't anyone compete then, knowing how popular it can be? People love open world sandbox type mayhem.

>>723358494
>>723358912
>There is no franchise bigger than GTA.

>>723353953 (OP)
Sssloppa!!!

>>723359403
you live in a world where people pay 70$ even for malware or yearly sportslop which still got lootboxes in a game you've fully paid for

>>723359497
Willfully limiting and making the gameplay more tedious is not innovating, no matter how much you difficulty cows want to try and convince yourselves of it.

>>723359403
>where games aren't getting any better or looking any better
em, wrong. VI looks amazing, better than RD2 (which is the best looking game to this day btw)
But glad I got you by the balls, seethe more poorfag.

>>723359317
just admit you're one of those freeroam pvp faggots on gtao who wants to be able to pull out rocket launchers with auto trackers, semi-auto sniper, carbine ar, sticky bombs, and the toy remote explosive car out of your gaping asshole so you can be an annoying faggot loser to everyone else you run into in every single lobby.

>>723359341
>what so surprising
nothing, no one ever thought gta was the biggest franchise, except you retard.
this is you, right? retard
>>723358494
>there is no franchise bigger than gta
>no pokemon
nigger you specifically call out pokemon and now ur saying actually yeah pokemon is bigger?
absolute retard

>>723359531
No, I simply responded to claim that Minecraft is bigger, which is not. I never made an argument GTA is the biggest.

>>723359518
I'm a proud american and I bet you're a brown monogloid seething because gta VI is going to sell 500 billion copies

I hope the radio isn't shit.

>>723359614
That sounds pretty fun to me, legit explain to me how it wouldn't be.

>>723359620
You are talking to 2 different anons. I never once claimed GTA is the biggest franchise. It's just bigger than moinkraft.

>>723359756
a lot of songs from vice city are back in if you listen to the music playing during trailer 2

>>723359769
Zoom zoom zoom

>>723359559
Yes we do. And in that SAME world on average, those are the only 2 games people are buying for the year kek FIFA, NBA2K, MADDEN, and COD.
>>723359596
Except they don't retard. RDR2 still looks better than anything currently released retard. The gap between 8th and 9th gen games are miniscule. But I can't wait until they finally release pre-orders so you can look like even more of a retarded faggot.

>>723359691
Yeah you simply ignored the actual topic of discussion. That's what is surprising.

>>723359547
>then
I don't know, I only said there's no alternative.

>>723359590
But it's not really tedious for me, it is interesting and a new mechanic which I welcome.

>>723359818
lol no SAAAAR bloody bastard benchod!!!!!!
but no for real, faggot indians hate GTA VI and rockstar because they brokered a deal with sony over microshit

>>723359875
Wasn't my topic to begin with. You wrote a lie and I corrected you. don't care about what other anon said.

>GTA 6 deserves a $100 price tag

Personally I think people deserve to afford groceries and rent more than TakeTwo who will be swimming in money but I'm a bit softhearted like that

>>723359785
>no it wasn't me!!! I swear I didn't say anything retarded!!!!!
>I just acted like I was that person and am absolutely definitely not them!!!!!
>me getting directly called out and proven wrong has completely no baring on this at all!!!!!!!!!
>aieeee believe me!!!!!!
so either you are just an absolutely buttblasted retarded who got proven wrong or you joined in at the start of a conversation talking about something completely different.
so do you want to be a retard who said something really stupid, or a fucking retard who said something stupid, can't read, can't understand what is being said, and goes out of his to try to cover up his retarded opinions? you really should have just accepted you said something stupid because what you are trying to claim makes you seem even more retarded.

>>723359836
That's what I thought.

>RDR2 still looks better than anything currently released retard.
Yeah because Rockstar is one of a kind. VI is objectively worth more than 100$.

>>723354316
TRVKE

>>723359849
>so you can look like even more of a retarded faggot.
I never once claimed I expect it to cost 100$. I expect 70$.

Jesus, I haven't seen dick riding of this magnitude in a thread in a while.

so did RDR2

>>723360072
youve never been in tendie threads?

I would really like it if you just went to google right now, and searched the definition of tedious.

>>723360146
Given the fact that people WANT a $100 pricetag on this game, I'd say they are about the same.

>>723359769
is your online handle zoomerlord by any chance?

>Four endings
Three of them are obvious, but who will you play as in the fourth ending where Jason and Lucia both die?

>>723359993
How was I proven wrong? someone wrote that GTA is the biggest franchise ever, you responded with obvious lie, that minecraft is bigger, and I corrected you. Take your meds and go to sleep dummy

>>723360237
Nobody "wants a 100$ pricetag" retard. The whole point is that it's going to so good that even 100$ could be worth for it. No one chooses to pay more than needed. This board is full of dumbfucks I swear.

>>723360270
>yes I am actually that big of a retard and don't understand how to have conversations with people on top of trying to defend being wrong about facts I dislike
you don't need to tell us how big of a retard you are, we already can tell just from reading your posts.

>>723360161
Yea I just did.
It still won't feel "tedious" to me, sorry lil bro.

>>723360343
>The whole point is that it's going to so good that even 100$ could be worth for it
Hmm, that anon was right, maybe you faggot ARE worse than the tendies.

>>723360265
my theory is that you can use a custom character at the end and it also happens to be the custom character you will use online as well.

>>723360367
>hurr durr retard because you are!!!
Anyway, you were wrong, minecraft isn't bigger, that's all.

>>723360414
What YOU feel is irrelevant bud.

>>723359976
I’m a cuckold and I love gta 6

>>723360417
I'm sorry you have no taste in games

>>723360475
I didn't say minecraft was bigger, that wasn't me, seems you can't even understand who you are talking about
YOU said that the combined titles of gta was bigger than minecraft to another anon which I then pointed out is smaller than pokemon, you are still trying to argue gta is biggest and outing yourself.

holy fuck this thread is a perfect cross-section of the lobotomized modern gamer brain. every single one of you is a fucking retard. YOU ARE ALL WRONG. you think you're having a debate but you're just screaming different flavors of cope into the void. the rockstar loyalists drooling over the idea of a 100 dollar price tag because "muh quality" "muh inflation" you are pathetic bootlicking consoomers who have been so thoroughly brainwashed you get a dopamine hit from defending a megacorporation's profit margins. you will buy the shark cards. you will praise the battle pass. you are the reason gaming is dead. then you have the contrarian cynics "it's gonna be boring" "it's gonna be another cyberpunk" you're just as bad. you have no argument beyond "nuh uh" you've built your entire personality around hating popular things because it makes you feel smart. you will still buy the game on day one. you will complain about it for 500 hours. you're just as much of a slave to the hype as they are. and the "realism" debate? fucking kill me. one side wants a slow walk-and-skin-animals simulator because it makes their empty lives feel more "immersive". the other side wants a braindead sandbox where they can fly a rocket bike and blow up 12 year olds because they have the attention span of a goldfish. YOU ARE BOTH ASKING FOR BORING TRASH. it doesn't matter. none of it matters. the game will come out. it will be a 7/10 with a 10/10 graphics engine and a 12/10 monetization scheme. you will all buy it. you will all argue about it. rockstar will make another ten billion dollars. and the cycle of slop will continue forever. there is no escape. you are all trapped in this forever.

>>723360417
100 dollars for the biggest vidya in human history is cheap af in comparison to nintendie slop (btw it's not going to cost 100 dollars)

>>723360343
No one is paying $100

>>723360492
Ok only what YOU feel is relevant right?

>>723360526
damn that sucks little lad

>uhhhh I didn't say its the biggest
>I just argued against someone providing a counter example
yeah, you argued it is the biggest and are still trying to right now.
go on, right now, say that GTA is not the biggest game franchise, and isn't even in the top 5. those are the facts.
admit it right here anon, because you are still arguing it is the biggest.

>>723360752
I’m just not buying it is all
Haha

>>723360594
I am, if it comes to it.
Many people I know irl would too
Millions of people, would also.

GTA stopped being cool as a thing after SA, has basically never been a good game in the gameplay department, and IV and V were both hugely underwhelming.

Can you all just *not* buy GTAVI, please? It's not going to be that good, and it's not going to be $100 good. $20 on sale good, maybe.
Fuckin watch a streamer play it for a few hours, and get it out of your system. Don't be their bitch.

>>723360787
No I don't think it's the biggest. It can be on par with CoD, behind Fortnite, Roblox, and whatever there may be. But no doubt it's one of the biggest industry giants.
Fortunately for shills like me tho, Rockstar is rumored to become similar to Fortnite, like a game platform that can be heavily modded with an alive ecosystem.

>>723360807
srry ur trans so i will not listen to u

>>723360343
>it's going to so good
Unironically, why?
It'll be a game where you drive to a flashing beacon on the map, shoot some not very easy enemies, then rinse and repeat. You've played it before.

>>723360901
Still not buying it tho.

>>723360851

>>723360969
look
I WILL buy dark souls 4 next year
I WILL buy GTA VI
and I WILL buy elden ring 2 when it comes out

>>723360807
It is genuinely, almost sweetly, naive of you to think any of this matters. Your plea is predicated on the false assumption that the average poster here operates on logic or principle. They don't.

This entire thread every post from the slobbering Rockstar loyalists to the performatively cynical contrarians like yourself is not a discussion. It is a ritual. It is a vital, necessary, and ultimately profitable component of the marketing cycle. The loyalists generate hype. The contrarians generate engagement. The schizos generate noise. All of it feeds the algorithm. All of it keeps the game at the forefront of the collective consciousness.

You are not fighting the machine by posting "don't be their bitch." You are a cog in that very machine. Your predictable outrage is just as valuable to them as the fanboy's drooling anticipation. You are all unpaid interns in Rockstar's marketing department. And you will all buy the game.

>>723361009
Nope

>>723360953
>But no doubt it's one of the biggest industry giants
you still can't accept that it isn't. still arguing gta is bigger than it is.
no anon, it isn't, it isn't one of the biggest, it isn't even in the top 10.

>>723360807
I'm preordering one for me and one for my brother.
You aren't "converting" anyone cuckyboy. We all know you'll be playing it nonstop lmao.

Souls games are at least fun. They at least present you with a challenge, and then test your problem solving skills by allowing you to pick different character builds or play styles.
GTA is quite literally just "follow the arrow". You have to be a moron to continue getting fun out of this past a certain point.

If you want a good sandbox game, get Hitman. Hours of fun.

>>723361053
At first you said top 5, now it's not even in top 10? you're losing yourself there brother.
>biggest video-game franchises by total copies sold (combined across all main games + spin-offs). Rounded figures:

Mario — ~957M.
Tetris — ~520M (But it includes mobile sales, doesn't count)
Call of Duty — ~500M.
Pokémon — ~489M (as of Mar 2025, from The
Grand Theft Auto — ~455M.
Minecraft — ~350M.
FIFA / EA Sports FC — ~325M.

I hope we can break into houses. Need to see more crazy behaviour from NPCs now and then too. I want to see schizos getting gunfights and the police doing shit about it. Driving in 5 wasn't very fun and it never felt dangerous when driving at high speed. I'm still praying it comes out in May. Might be the first GTA game where I explore and live in the world for a couple of hours before I touch the story. I think they'll cook something special yall

that figure is including DLC and expansions as individual sales of a video game, the wikipedia list you pulled this from clearly states this and even links to the "highest grossing video game franchises" where it compares $.
gta isn't even in the top 10

cherry picking fact to fit your narrative doesn't make it true.

>>723361243
What follow arrow u absolute retard. GTA V has:
Races
Boating
Flying
Biking
Shooting
Deathmatches
Many game modes
Ingame activities like golfing, tennis, etc
and many other things. You only do stories in GTA? psycho fuck.

>>723361274
Mario — rarely play because it's mid now

>game that deserves a $100
there isn't, and there never will exist such a thing. Fuck you stupid pieces of shit for even attempting to normalize this shit.

If this fucking piece of trash costs 100$, I'm not buying. I'm gonna wait until it's fucking free on Epic. If I have to wait ten fucking years, so be it. I don't give a shit. No one in the world can give me a single good reason why games have to be played on launch. Not one.

No, not really. I enjoy physics in Rockstar games, it is uncomparable.

You can literally carry every weapon you own on you in RDR2 shut the fuck up with "muh strategy" like this game will ever be high brow, the latest GTA slop isn't even out and you mongs are defending it like Daddy Rockstar won't release it if too many people say bad things about it. Pouring over 30 second trailers to discuss the political implications of a mole or whether or not a functional pregnancy system will be included because of some knocked up "drinking while pregnant" gag in the background. Not that your weapons will matter anyway since the only thing people care about is GTAO so they can play a budget second life with in built gun play that lets them defend their E-wife (male) from the town bully with rocket equipped supercars or whatever they do inbetween jerkin it to polygon titties at the strip club listening to kidz bop and the cheapest thug rap Rockstar was willing to shell out for

>>723361894

Except the Deshitive Trilogy wasn't developed by Rockstar themselves though retard. They outsourced to some 3rd worlders. Nice cope post though retard. There is a reason why they delayed the shit like 5 times and why they have a track record of delaying shit 100 times. They'd much rather get shit right the first time then to release unplayable slop that needs to be patched 500 times like Cyberpunk and most modern AAA games that release nowadays.

That anon wasn't me to begin with. And again, it's surprising you saw an anon make a false claim about GTA and you didn't care to correct him first. Especially since bringing up Minecraft made sense since the only logic to claim GTA was number one was when going by best selling single title (GTA V) which would have been number one had it not been for minecraft.

>>723355586

They essentially paid someone to do their homework for them and then handed it in...they might've failed but that doesn't mean they themselves are stupid...just the person who did the work for them is stupid. They went back and fixed most of the issues (characters still look weird, fat, and bloated in 3 and VC).

>>723353953 (OP)

I'll go off a 60$ baseline and will pay 1 additional $ for every lb I can put on Lucias ass.

>4niggers still falling for AI bait
4cacas, I...

Raising prices to $70 was a mistake and hurt everyone's bottom line
They don't want to see games that they know will be better than theirs at the same price point, making their $70 game look worse.
This is the same reason they got mad when Expedition 33 released at $50.

So people who have nothing at all to do with GTA6 keep trying to will this false reality of it being $100 into existence.
