DarkThoughts, do games w GTA 6 will have a 'significant online mode' to generate revenue for years into the future

GTA 5 was so lame for me already (I just can't relate to predefined characters, especially when they're THIS unlikable) and GTA Online ruined the rest of it for me. Now that they decided to also block Linux I'm seriously questioning why I should even bother with GTA 6 at all? Or this company in general? There's enough games out there I can buy for that money that can keep me busy for longer and with less annoyances.

Retro_unlimited,

Blocking Linux on GTA V was a huge point for me to avoid GTA6, at least for a while after launch.

And the fact that they are a multi squillion dollar company suggests they know what the fuck.

Oh well I’m definitely going to get the game then. I was concerned that it wouldn’t be maximally profitable for shareholders.

I don’t need to know anything about the gameplay just that someone who isn’t me will make a lot of money out of this.

Did this guy watch Mythic Quest or something…?

This is shit that Brad would say…

…wait it goes deeper… doesn’t Ubisoft have some type of partnership with AppleTV for this show too…?

It’s produced by Ubisoft Studios

DoucheBagMcSwag,

Ohhh that makes sense

fox2263,

They didn’t see the irony

pureness, do games w Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade

So pretty much 2-3 games like baldurs gate, helldivers, GTA V after accounting for the OS, with no ability for physical games. Idk who would buy this with that knowledge… it makes the disc version the only viable choice for a bit more coin

prole,

It’s actually really easy to add an nvme drive. That’s more costs though, obv

v4ld1z,

I’d wager most video game companies don’t

samus12345,

No for-profit company does as they don’t get money from them. This is not caring about anyone who’s not wealthy.

accretion,

Why would they? Not saying it’s right, but there’s literally zero motivation for them to focus on people who can’t buy their products. They are a luxury good.

They are a company who exists to make money, not entertain us, despite that being what they say (in order to sell more). Them, and ever other for profit company in the world.

Critical_Thinker,

They aren’t your friends, they don’t care about you - they care about the money in your pocket.

They know they are too big to fail, so they are gonna raise prices 50% no problem.

Sick. I got an a770le when they launched. Buggy AF, but not bad performance when it decided to work. It currently lives as a dedicated av1 encoder in a Plex server

A more accurate description of the situation is that a broken clock is right twice a day as he validly complains about racists sending hate to his employees.

There was a point I tried to switch to Epic, just to try it out - it is so unbelievably slow & oddly hard to find and organize my own games. They NEED to start putting $$ into the UI otherwise all those free games are for nothing if idetest opening the client itself.

Is it any good gameplay wise?

rickyrigatoni,

The people I personally know say it’s great but feels like a boss rush with very short paths to boss rooms.

AWistfulNihilist, (edited )

It’s decent, extremely boss heavy, very linear. But the story is well done and it looks and feels good to play. If you’ve recently played Elden Ring tho, the terrain is going to feel like prison bars to you, very little exploration despite looking like you should be able to explore.

If you aren’t into souls like type games, wait for a sale. Reviews critical about the gameplay are mostly right.

UprisingVoltage,

It’s a good action with some souls mechanics (not a soulslike though), crazy good graphics, bosses and enemy variety. Should also be decently optimized for pc

Plot wise is basically a fan sequel of Journey to the west. If you aren’t familiar with that don’t expect to understand shit about what’s going on.

The only real tangible issue is mediocre map design (very simplistic and linear) and (some say) some balancing issues.

In short, if you enjoy 3d actions and/or souls you’ll probably have you money’s worth.

SplashJackson,

I liked Journey to the West, it was really funny for a thousand-plus-year-old book, but didn’t they all die at the end? Or rather, ascend to Buddhahood?

AWistfulNihilist,

The games opening cut scene addresses this, was pretty good

UprisingVoltage,

Yeah. The game’s incipit is (spoilers ??? Literally the first five minutes of the game) >!Wukong just wants to chill on his mountains, but the other gods fear him and kick his ass. Decades, centuries or maybe millennia has passed, and now you, a monke from his village (arguably his reincarnation), are tasked with finding a way to reawaken him!<

SplashJackson,

Ah yeah I remember he came from a monkey tree, like the song! Or perhaps it was a mountain
