I’ll buy it if/when it comes out on PC. I loved GTA 3, 4, and 5. I finished 3 and 4, never finished 5 but still love exploring and roaming the map.
None of the choices apply to me. I’m pretty excited to play it. Not gonna pay for it though.
🫡🏴☠️
Sounds like you’re not interested in buying then
Yeah, but that option would put me in the same box as people not interested in the game at all.
That’s not the question being asked though.
Will you buy GTA 6 when it launches on your platform?
I hardly buy anything on release, only the occassional indie.
In other words: No chance.
No. Rockstar is dead to me.
I’d have been a day one customer if they’d bothered making a PC version and hadn’t arbitrarily blocked Linux users from GTA Online a couple of years ago. Now they can get fucked.
Absolutely not, not ever of my own doing.
I don’t think I’ll get it. Maybe if it’s on deep discount on PC eventually, and it doesn’t have horrible DRM, and the reviews are good.
I didn’t really like gta5 that much. It’s very on rails / Simon-says in a lot of the stories. I guess they’re going for something cinematic. I’d rather have something more like an immersive sim.
I only have a pc so I’ll be waiting .
Lmao no
I don’t think I’m going to get GTA 6 at all. I have a grudge against Take2 since they had Gearbox update all the old Borderlands games right before Borderlands 4 came out to include an anticheat software and the EULA now states that any info the anticheat scrapes can be sold to their marketing partners. So they turned all of those games into spyware. Rockstar and Take2 both stated that the already over-monitized GTA Online is actually under-monitized, so I fully expect the GTA 6 online to be more of a fucking nightmare than EA’s Battlefront 2 on release. And I also hate how as soon as Rockstar saw how profitable GTAO was, they cancelled the single player DLC and shoehorned all that shit into GTAO.
I’m tired, boss. It’ll be a cold day in hell before I spend money on a triple-A game again
they cancelled the single player DLC and shoehorned all that shit into GTAO
I didn’t know that, but always suspected it.
Yeah, they never outright stated it, but this was all found in one of the big data leaks from Rockstar. The first was mostly finished and involved Trevor working with the CIA, doing a heist on the casino, and going on James Bond/Austin Powers like adventures. The second DLC was a zombie survival scenario (probably going to be like RDR’s Undead Nightmare) with Micheal and his family. And the final DLC basically just had concept art of Franklin being sucked up into a UFO.
All the cars and the casino heist from Trevor’s DLC is in GTAO. The cars modified with sheet metal and spikes from Michael’s DLC got repurposed into a Mad Max type of update for GTAO.
R* are union busting assholes. I’m not giving them a single øre.
Since there is no such answer in the poll, I’ll just comment: no, I won’t.
Hmm, isn’t “Not interested” the answer you looking for then? I thought of this answer as a catch all for anyone who won’t buy.
The thing is: I am interested. I just want to wait for a week or two, hear what real people think. Magazines and YouTube reviewers can’t be trusted imo. So I might buy it, but I’m not planning to buy it on the launch day.
In that case your answer isn’t “no I won’t”, more “maybe if it’s good”. The “Not interested” Is for anyone who is not interested into buying the game. But I agree that an option for waiting after launch, but not necessary for the price, is missing.
This is my first poll ever and I butchered it in multiple ways.
I was thinking about “no, I won’t” because two other answers are talking about day 1 purchases. But yeah, it’s closer to “maybe” or “unsure”.
I mean, it’s not likely to run on the steam deck and that’s my only gaming device, so. . .
Nah.
We’ve got GTA 5, but don’t really enjoy it. (The excessive open-world free-roam, great! The “doing nasty shit” part, not so much.) And THEN there’s the whole “they’re trying to kill discs” thing and just, nah.

I really enjoyed GTA 5. I bought it twice in two different systems. I’ll eventually play 6, but it’s gotta be for a sale. Fuck the $80 price tag, and fuck Rockstar union busting and I hope they unionize hard.
