They linked to the gamespot YouTube video, resolving the issue.
Leaving up.
Okay after watching this video, I figured out what the deal is with this game I don’t connect with: Netflix. They all wanna do their games now like it’s a Netflix show. Not just Rockstar, but all of the major companies.
Graphically… it looks great. If what we’re seeing isn’t just all post-effects they slapped onto the video.
The dudes voice I don’t like. Apparently I’m not the only person judging by some of the comments I’ve read heh. He just sounds like a doofus white guy. But an unfunny one at that! And they’re somehow making his voice sound Deeper? Like if 1990s, Point Break, Keanue had a deeper voice I guess is what they are going for? The problem like some others have pointed out is that the voice doesn’t match what we’re seeing as the Model.
Eh. Anyways whatever. I’m old. I prefer the old school goofy cartoon GTAs over this Netflix Amazon Movie shit they put out now. I’m not big on Hyper Realism these days. Kind of over it really. That’s just me though.
It says captured on ps5 at the very end
And why would they lie?
Well it’s releasing on the PS5 so it would be pretty dumb if it doesn’t actually work on the PS5. Anyway what the mostly showed was cut scenes and they are easy to optimize because anything that’s literally not on screen can just be unloaded.
I remember when the very first teaser came out for this and people were going wild. I asked in a streamers chat (first mistake) if there was any actual in-game gameplay footage or it was just a CGI/cutscene and the streamer chewed me out lol. “Let people be excited about things!”
God Lemmy is full of miserable cunts haha y’all just hate everything.
Yeah, we do hate scummy fucking companies that fire employees for trying to form an union.
Fuck them!
Meh
I would probably buy it (when it’s on sale at a reasonable price!) if it wasn’t for the poor treatment of their employees and alleged attempts at union busting.
I wouldn’t even say alleged, it was very blatant. An employment tribunal has already ruled against them and the case goes to full trial next month.
Yeah, I only said ‘alleged’ because I haven’t been following it that closely and am not familiar with the latest details. Last time I saw anything about it Rockstar looked guilty as hell.
Characters, location, even scenarios seem generic as fuck. Lacking the spicy humor that GTA5 had.
Seems like the writers have done the classic error of not endearing anyone to the player. I’m not drawn to or interested in finding out anything more about them.
It’s like I’m taking crazy pills.
3 months from release we get a trailer with some gameplay, and it doesn’t look exciting. The movement during the shooting looks clunky as fuck, and reminds me of the stick-to-cover games of late 2000s.
I played all GTAs and liked both RDRs, but this just doesn’t pull me in. Graphics are great and I’m sure we have a huge map with lots of stuff to do, but the gameplay and mechanics seem dated.
Didn‘t they fire the main writer for the games up until GTA5 or RDR2 almost a decade ago? The guy then went on to create his own studio and develop some crypto slop that is regarded as the worst game that released that year.
I can’t wait to smoke weed and drive around listening to the radio
Sounds good, but what do you plan on doing in the game?
I’m sure this is exactly what they wanted.
“The movie they tried to ban” effect
Quite possibly. The other side of the coin though is that I’m sure Netflix wanted the deal to pull in new subscribers, so if options to watch it elsewhere prevent that from happening, that could still be a win.
I have zero interest in GTA6, but I want to watch this just to give a middle finger to Take Two and Rockstar.
So… they added…? If you told me this was GTAV I would believe you.
Fuck. Unfortunately looks really good.
R* feels like prime, 2009 Apple: fucking insufferable but unfortunately make a strong product, if overpriced.
I will still recommend people wait. Wait for reviews, wait for initial audience impressions, and wait to play it on your platform of choice.
What I see is a game that has a lot of detail and some big cinematic moments that make for a good trailer. But whether all that detail translates into a genuinely fun experience remains to be seen.
For all we know, the rest of the game outside of the trailers could be nothing but ET trying to jump out of holes.
Oh, I agree. Always wait for reviews unless you like throwing money away.
And I won’t be buying this game.
It looks amazing everything about it is incredible. Except Jason’s voice. It’s so immersion breaking I can’t put my finger on it. It’s not that it just lacks emotion, Arthur’s character in RDR2 lacked emotion most of the time. And he’s a great character
This is something else entirely. It distracted me during the entire reveal and I found myself getting more annoyed with it as the trailer went. It sounds filtered and muffled like he was talking into a box fan. During recording
His voice acting was genuinely the only thing that turned me off the game haha.
I actually agree with you. I was browsing the comments and during the first few minutes I was thinking “ah, they’re exaggerating”, but it really did get worse and worse. Really puts me off as well.
It sounds like it’s being ran through one of those anonymous voice filters while the person saying the lines is trying to fake a deep voice.
It doesn’t fit the character model whatsoever. I truly hate it. Do we even know who’s doing the voice yet? Maybe rockstar is filtering it so we can’t identify it yet I don’t know. If it’s filtered great that’s not what we will be hearing. If it’s not. Then it’s a major problem
It’s bizarre too because every other voice was excellent, as is the usual case for R*.
Yes they were. The pistols shot in the hallway sounded amazing and then sounded different in the open which was even better
I don’t think anybody does detail quite like Rockstar. When I finished Read Dead 2 I just sat through the credits in awe at the sheer amount of effort that had gone into it. Animals skinned while you watch, lines recorded twice for close and far away dialogue, whole hunting and animal systems. Subtle changes in dialogue depending on how you play.
Compare to “AAAA” games like Far Cry Avatar, with an equal number of systems, but none are really fleshed out, and the whole thing feels very half arsed in comparison.
I think the only game to really come close to them is Baldur’s Gate 3.
Yeah, the online stuff is pure fucking greed, but I don’t care for that. I don’t play it. I never loaded GTAO or Red Dead Online. I don’t demand I be allowed to pay extra for more DLC. It’s all in the base game I already bought. I play it, I finish it, it goes on the shelf. Or it went on the shelf. RIP discs, I guess. :(
I mean sure they’ve had money and time than God to make it, but boy did it look like they spent it well. The big thing for me is the real time lighting, a lot of lights are drawing shadows and a lot of objects are self-shadowing on each light… it’s crazy!
I’m not particularly a fan of GTA series. However did completed every one of them since GTA III. My issue with GTA VI trailer though is that it looks too realistic, and not really well stylized. It doesn’t ring the vibe of Vice City. And it doesn’t look catchy for my eye. Would love to be proven wrong after release (More good games to complete). I can acknowledge that lighting tech is impressive. Animations are good. And environment is detailed. But atm it looks soulless for me comparing it even to the same GTA V. And story wise tracking 3 doofuses idiotic plans was actually fan. Here I don’t feel anything remotely special atm. Might be a damn good sandbox. But will it be the actual successor amongst the series games is under the question.
I suspect two things:
The world will be more immersive and less soulless once we can actually navigate it. It’s also the first time there’s been a swamp in GTA which is cool.
Lucia will be by far the better protagonist. The other one seems poorly written and with a voice completely mismatching the character model. I think Lucia will have more depth and her voice is more pleasant.
Apple make good hardware, their software is awful. It’s really annoying because I really want a time of flight sensor on my phone so I can do some 3D scanning but I’ll have to put up with apples awful operating system that won’t talk to any computer that isn’t a Mac
I don’t want an extended preview, I just want a PC release. Gotta dodge spoilers for a year or two. That’s not gonna work.
Im waiting for the PC version and a less than $50 price tag
*I’m an idiot
Your sign is the wrong way, you’re asking for a price tag greater than $50, hehe.
But I agree!
LoL oops
?
PREFAB SPROUT IS ON THE RADIO FUCK YESSSS YESSSS YESSSSS HOLY FUCKING YESSSSS
Looks great.
And people upset about how the preview was posted are just looking for additional reasons to be upset with Rockstar.
Be upset about more important things, like labor issues, crunch, union busting, no physical release, etc.
I mean I don’t really need more reasons. Between union busting and mass layoffs, people that actually worked on this are long gone and I’m not gonna give my money to those rich fucks.
Luckily they help out by delaying PC version and pricing the digital game like an old console.
I can’t buy it. I couldn’t find a reason to get a console this gen. So I’ll be waiting for PC, and I got enough things to play for years in the mean time.
The patient gamer strategy has always paid off for me, and I have to recommend it to everyone else.
One of the games I finished most recently was Cyberpunk 2077. Great game worth playing today, not so great at launch. And on the CD Projekt topic, The Witcher 3 has also been on my to-do list for ages, and guess what’s getting a remaster in a few more weeks?
There are too many games out there to play in one lifetime. When most games seem to be in their worst state at launch, why rush to buy when there’s so much else out there to try while you wait?
It’s unreal for me how impatient some people are, a friend is buying an console just so he can play it earlier. Pre-ordering every single game and then complaining they get unfinished stuff.
Like dude i just wait till it releases with a normal price tag, we’re waaay to old to care about having fomo.
