Computerchairgeneral, do games w Dragon Age: Dreadwolf - Official 'Thedas Calls' Teaser Trailer

Well, that was vague and didn't tell me anything. At least we know the game is eventually coming out, I guess?

Rentlar, do gaming w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

As far as I can tell it’s in Vice City. Cool!

BowtiesAreCool,

Was it the giant VICE text that gave it away?

Rentlar,

maybe lol. GTA VI(ce)? VCI airport was the first tipoff for me, half a minute before.

I think it was just the general Florida-man vibes that gave it away for me

I should play GTA5. Still havent touched it. I think I have it on PS3 somewhere...

Man the graphics looks great. The lighting especially. Looking forward to seeing actual gameplay next trailer.

Statlerwaldorf,

Maybe I’m just getting old but the gameplay loop of Rockstar games has gotten tired. RDR2 was gorgeous but the mission formula was just so boring.

@GladiusB@lemmy.world avatar

Meh. I’m going to disagree. I feel the graphics were underwhelming given the time they took. The scenery was beautiful but the characters and NPCs need some major work.

Elden Ring was better. Cyberpunk is better. Fortnite is better.

They are making us wait 2 more years and I don’t even care because it’s been that long and they have fallen behind.

zzmthesurand,
@zzmthesurand@kbin.social avatar

Fortnite is better? Are we looking at the same video?

GladiusB,
@GladiusB@lemmy.world avatar

Have you played the season that just dropped? It is better than most games. And I’m not some casual. I have a very respectable PC and gaming laptop under Linux and Windows. I know graphics quality.

iheartneopets, (edited )

Really? I thought the lighting and environments looked good, but the models definitely need some work. They look like clay mannequins in an HD world to me, and I feel like that’s only gonna get more exacerbated since this doesn’t come out for another 2 years.

stardust, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

If 2025 deadline is met then will probably be 2026-2027 for PC release.

FullFridge, do games w Lies of P Critique (Joseph Anderson)

Interesting seeing the upvote/downvote ratio? Anyone wanna enlighten me or is Joseph just polarizing?

mrh,

I had the same thought lol

Katana314,

He once said Dark Souls wasn’t perfect which of course makes him pure evil.

What!?! Do you mean there’s an area between black and white?! That’s impossible!!!

kromem, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

Looks great. I knew after the RDR2 crocs we were going to be getting much better wildlife, which is very exciting.

Graphics look awesome, promising Bonnie and Clyde story.

Seem to have expanded out their in game social media and Internet designs.

Figured it would be 2025 as historically the first trailer always comes out around a year and a half before the game is slated to.

SharkyAttack, do gaming w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

How does the video have 86,000 views and 2.1m likes? What am I missing?

fossilesque,
@fossilesque@mander.xyz avatar

This is the most expensive game ever built.

SharkyAttack,

I get that. I’m excited for it too. My point is 80k views but 2.1 m likes. How could 2.1 m people like it when it hasn’t even been viewed 100k times yet? As soon as you load the page it’s a view, so at least 2.1m people would have had to open the video to like it.

Doorbook,

The view counter is different than the like counter. If checked after a couple of days most likely we would say the views more than the likes.

fossilesque,
@fossilesque@mander.xyz avatar

It was linked through a third party like twitter.

RightHandOfIkaros,

More expensive than Star Citizen?

BassaForte,
@BassaForte@lemmy.world avatar

It’s GTA 6 bro

SharkyAttack,

My question is of mathematics, not popularity. Sorry I wasn’t more clear, I am excited for the game too!

BassaForte,
@BassaForte@lemmy.world avatar

Ah. Like count updates faster than view count.

ImFresh3x,

GTA is the most successful media franchise of all time.

MajesticSloth,
@MajesticSloth@lemmy.world avatar

It is way down the list, not even top 30. Pokémon tops all at 88 billion.

Rentlar,

You’re looking at the sequel to the game that is still within Steam’s Top 10 active player count, 8.5 years after its release.

steamdb.info/app/271590/charts/

People have been speculating on GTA6 for well over 5 years at this point, it’s no surprise this announcement is popular.

MadMadBunny,

Money. Money buys everything.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Everyone here is missing the point that the video has more likes than views, by a few orders of magnitude…

SharkyAttack,

Exactly, thank you. I get what the massive appeal to the game is. I’ve played all the GTAs (yes I’m old), but something is fucky if it has that many updoots and not even 100k views (at the time).

R00bot,
@R00bot@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Views don’t update in real time but likes do. Always happens with big videos like this. It’s something to do with YouTube reconciling the view counts across multiple servers, which gets very difficult with large numbers. It’s a bit easier for them to create a stable like count when each user can only like it once, so they’re essentially adding that user to a list and then counting the length of the list.

SharkyAttack,

Interesting, thanks for explaining!

Chozo,

It's because after a certain point, YouTube stops updating the view counts in real time. Some other stats (such as likes) will still update, though.

NIB,

Views dont update in real time.

Skipcast,

The video was up early with a premiere scheduled, so people could start liking it before the video was available.

bdonvr,

YouTube view counts can lag a few hours behind when videos get sudden huge views like this

kromem,

YouTube probably updates views on a periodic basis and likes in realtime.

My guess is you’ll see views as higher than likes once activity dies down and the latter catches up to the former.

Dylan, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

Stoked for Vice City and the graphics look pretty good!

Won’t hold my breath for PC release in 2025 but one can dream.

ImFresh3x,

I am guessing they’ll wait until after new consoles are released. Let people buy ps5/xXxboxXxSeriesNexXxt remastered. Then let people buy the pc version. Get 3 copies sold to each of most hardcore gamers.

Wonder how much effort they will put into preventing mods this time. I know they bought 5M so it seem they will want to shut all the unauthorized mod communities down.

stardust,

I wonder how much that will be true this time around. This is the first console Gen where I have no plans to get a console, so they can’t even entice me to double dip due to lack of a console. And if I haven’t got a console by 2024 I won’t be getting one just for one game. Exclusives don’t have the same draw anymore, since they’ve started getting ported.

korny,

Only console I’ve held onto was the Wii. Unless a Wii release is coming, I’m doomed to wait for a PC release.

stardust,

One silver lining I see in delayed release is that I have less of an incentive to upgrade my GPU until then, and new GPU might be out that should hopefully handle it maxed out when I do get into it.

Ser_Salty,

Nah, that’s too far. You’re talking like 2028 there for the next gen consoles. PC probably gonna come 6-12 months later, like almost always.

echodot,

Next gen consoles are years out. You’re looking at 2029 at the earliest for the next generation of consoles.

CryptidBestiary, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

As a former Floridian, this is definitely triggering my PTSD as they seriously nailed the atmosphere of Vice City (Miami). Curious if the main characters will be as well written as V’s were

aluminium,

Please not, V’s characters were kinda meh

zzmthesurand,
@zzmthesurand@kbin.social avatar

Michael and Trevor were pretty well written, it was just the story that was kind of lacking IMHO

aluminium,

Ok, I think you got a point there.

But Franklin is a very plain yes man character.

edgemaster72, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1
@edgemaster72@lemmy.world avatar

Of all the trailers, this certainly is one.

Breezy,

Certainly a trailer for one the games of 2025 at that!

iheartneopets,

If this isn’t coming out until 2025, I worry about how dated the graphics already look. It’s like they took the same old models/rigs and just brought them into higher definition? Idk, but something looks off about them to me. It definitely doesn’t help the $70-80 price tags that companies are trying to justify when graphics look mostly the same as they ever have.

I think we might have hit peak realism with graphics and need to lean harder into art direction.

Female main character?? What is this woke agenda garbage??? /s

Felt kind of weird to see gta with more realistic movements. Not complaining, the whole thing looks really good

Hahaha 2025, I knew it. people are gonna be pissed 🤣

Not surprised, GTA 5 was announce 2011 and release 2013.

turkalino,
@turkalino@lemmy.yachts avatar

Two delays and three price changes later, this game will be fantastic when it comes out in 2027

nucleative,

See ya in 2030 when online is ready

turkalino,
@turkalino@lemmy.yachts avatar

I’ll have to wait until the PC version comes out in 2033, but see ya then!

DudeDudenson,

Was about to say the original release of GTA V wasn’t an actually release since it didn’t come to PC for a couple of years

foggianism,

Oh, you’re not gonna wait for Online that long. It’s gonna be their main focus for sure.

MeatsOfRage,

100% it’s their money maker. I’d be less surprised if they delayed the campaign to get the online out.

echodot,

Good that means no micro transactions

fossilesque, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

I believe those are in game graphics!

Squizzy,

It looked great other than NPCs, they were a bit off, stilted and blocky

maniacal_gaff,

Lol fucking internet. “Blocky”

Squizzy,

Great input, fucking internet.

BarrelAgedBoredom,

What kind of games are you playing where the graphics in that trailer were subpar? Everything looked great

Squizzy,

I literally used the word great in my comment, just a couple of the NPCs looked odd to me. The first girl in the bikini is walking odd or something.

Matriks404,

I mean, they look nothing like RL people, but still there is some progress.

Ser_Salty,

Rockstar has done nothing but actual in-game footage for trailers since like GTA3. So, yeah, that shit is fucking insane. Doesn’t even look like a PS5 could run it.

kromem,

As comments on GAF have been pointing out, 2025 will be after the PS5 Pro.

What I can’t figure is how this will run on the Series S.

Ser_Salty,

They must have magicians working for them or something. I guess that’s the advantage of using a completely tailor made engine created with unlimited funding, rather than using Unreal or something.

DannyBoy,

They certainly have some tricks and talent. GTA 5 ran on the launch 360 which had 512mb of RAM shared between CPU and GPU.

schmidtster,

Well Microsoft has already shown they will cave to have a game, so probably just won’t be on it so it can still be on an Xbox in some form.

Ser_Salty,

Nah, the press release says it’s releasing on the S

schmidtster,

So did BG3 at the start and we all know how that went. Microsoft had to reneg on multiple policies just so they could have the game on their consoles.

pgetsos,
@pgetsos@kbin.social avatar

I believe only the local Co-op was removed though? And the optimizations made for XSS were beneficial to all other platforms as well as they stated, and the game runs now much better on PC and PS5

schmidtster,

The optimizations would have been done eventually anyways and Xbox had policies that they had to bend just to have the game on their systems.

People can say the game is coming, but that doesn’t mean it’s happening, it’s already been an issue and will be a continuing issue going forward. The console just isn’t that powerful.

If the game does release, it won’t be the same game as the X, not a chance.

pgetsos,
@pgetsos@kbin.social avatar

I doubt they would do the optimizations at the same degree, because they wouldn't need to. It was working fine on the PS5 already, it was already a success on PC. Why bother much?

schmidtster,

They have done plenty of other optimizations already. So why would you think that? Of your logic was remotely true not any optimizations would have been done since it’s a waste.

Clearly they aren’t that type of company (every company does continuing optimizations FFS LMFAO), so don’t make shit up to try and make a point.
