cyborganism, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

Not disappointed in the trailer or the game or anything, but I would’ve loved to see a GTA set in a city outside the US. For example in a London-like city or Tokyo or Rome or Paris.

But yeah this new GTA looks sick. They did a great job in capturing the new fucked up Florida vibe.

CaptDust,

If Rockstar wanted to bring back London '69 (maybe '89 now?) I wouldn’t be mad at all.

MeatsOfRage,

I’ve always dreamed about this one, London 69 updated in their recent style. I think they talked about this before and the problem is the cops in London didn’t carry guns then so it made it difficult to be a GTA game in the typical sense.

prettybunnys,

I want them to spin off another top down style gta game, I love the 3d but it would be cool to see them iterate on the OG style.

GTA 2 was my favorite

cyborganism,

That just might be a good indy game project actually…

XTornado,

Idk… If it hasn’t happened with the Switch… Like they did with PSP and DS with GTA china town …

TopRamenBinLaden,

GTA Chinatown Wars was great when it released for Nintendo DS and the PSP. It was actually a really well done update to the GTA 2 style of gameplay that a lot of people missed because it was a portable game. It was available on iOS and Android, too, but not sure if it’s still there.

Five stars is just the RCMP apologizing to you.

Unless you’re a native character…

madsen,

Sleeping Dogs is probably as close as you’ll get. That’s a great game btw.

cyborganism,

Thanks for the reference! I’ll check that out!

Son_of_dad,

Solid game, I believe it began as a sequel to True crime streets of LA. It felt like I was playing an infernal affairs video game

i dunno if they find enough whacky criminal characters. Seems to be the other countries are still too normal or things are too fucked up for the series to work there.

Zeth0s, (edited )

They have police in those city.

All 2022 Rome had only 16 homicides… And street are too small and traffic is too bad for a grand theft auto… Rome is good for spy stories, thriller or stealth games. GTA wouldn’t really work

In London not even police has guns… Having someone hanging around with a gun is too unrealistic, more than Harry potter

Umbraveil,

Technically… London has already been done.

en.wikipedia.org/…/Grand_Theft_Auto:_London_1969.

Zeth0s,

For Rome, grand theft auto in the 70s is absolutely doable. Full of gangs, terrorists, molotovs.

Grand theft auto Rome 2023 would be about some fat guy bribing politicians to get the work for his company of collect garbage and never do it. The lucrative non-fancy side of crime

cyborganism,

Ah… you make a very good point.

The Florida vibe is definitely oozing from this trailer. I can almost smell it, and quite frankly I’m disgusted. Bravo. I would’ve preferred the next GTA being somewhere else, but maybe this it exactly where it belongs.

cyborganism,

Agree. Florida culture has become very conductive for this kind of game.

3ntranced,

I always assumed GTA to be a broad parody on modern America. From the beginning it was a new York esque mob-gang warfare, and then moved out to add in more usa adjacent scenery. It’s more about keeping with the theme, let IPs like watchdogs take the initial risks.

cyborganism,

Good point. And Florida has become crazy enough that a GTA game set there is almost realistic.

MeatsOfRage,

I’d like it just set in any new city outside of these 3. It’s always been a rotation of Liberty, Vice and San Andreas, even back to GTA 1 (which was the 3 cities in one)

cyborganism,

True. Chicago would’ve been nice. Or Atlanta.

Michal,

USA as a very car centric country is definitely best suited for a car centric game like Grand Theft Auto.

cyborganism,

That’s true lol. It’s not called grand theft métro de Paris.

CaptDust,

The Getaway had plenty of car action, it was pretty neat blasting through the tight roads and navigating traffic.

RGB3x3, do gaming w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 1

Coming 2025

Fuck me, it’s still at least a year and a half off. I’d bet it’s either coming September or November 2025 or being delayed until 2026.

Which would make it at least 12 years since GTA 5’s original release. That’s absolutely nuts.

Kekzkrieger,
@Kekzkrieger@feddit.de avatar

better than releasing a half finished game that is unplayable in the first 6 months and then barely playable for another 6months and only with the dlc 3 months later they bring features they promised on release.

Dont get me wrong i’d love to play RIGHT NOW, but i’d rather wait for a polished experience than to get disappointed.

valkyrie,

100% it’s a good thing they are taking their time.

RGB3x3,

IDK, I said the same thing about Cyberpunk, No Man’s Sky, Diablo IV, Starfield, and what feels like every other AAA game that comes out these days.

Delays and long development times no longer mean quality, if they ever did.

rwhitisissle,

That can’t be right, GTA 5 just come out in…fuck.

It’s more of a satire of them but sure.

GrindingGears,

You should check out this happening hip website called Reddit, my man. There will be lots of folks there that will agree with you.

TheMauveAvenger,

Lmao do you know what platform you’re on right now? I’m actually surprised OP is getting downvoted because this type of comment is the epitome of Lemmy. Missing satire/missing the point, anti-American, pointlessly bringing in politics/culture in a negative way. This has been my experience 80% of the time here.

Missing satire/missing the point, anti-American, pointlessly bringing in politics/culture in a negative way.

Ahh, just like Reddit

TheMauveAvenger,

Reddit is hardly anti-American in the aggregate. And not nearly the same percentage of posts get political for no reason. Definitely agree on missing satire, though. Lemmy is just hyper-distilled reddit.

Poggervania,
@Poggervania@kbin.social avatar

You mean that website where a large majority of fediverse users came from?

Yeah, wouldn’t be surprised if there was some communal overlap…

Yeah because the other 5 main series crime simulator games really spoke to the soul of the country

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,
@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.

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

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,

SharkyAttack,

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

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.
