GTA VII when?

GeeDubHayduke,

October 3. The one after the sun implodes.

thatKamGuy, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2

Maybe I’m just old, but I feel like all the people complaining about no PC port at launch, or how this trailer doesn’t show gameplay must be ‘new’ to the series (which to be fair, could mean as much as a decade).

This is how Rockstar have pretty much always done it, going all the way back to GTA3 on the PlayStation 2; PC ports have always been 6+ months after.

Trailer 1 tends to be about the setting, Trailer 2 about the primary characters, then Trailer 3/4 about the supporting characters. ‘Gameplay Trailers’ usually don’t come out around/after launch as that’s usually what’s being still being worked on by the devs.

DoucheBagMcSwag,

We will always complain about the lack of a PC port at launch… especially in this era.

We’re not going away

thatKamGuy,

Feel free to complain, no one is trying to stop you. Just understand though that you are screaming into the void, and nothing will come of it bar heightened cortisol.

Grand Theft Auto is the arguably the most profitable gaming franchise ever, and it got there doing this exact release cadence. Rockstar Games & Take-Two Interactive will continue to do so for as long as it continues to maximise profits.

Does it stuck for us gamers? Absolutely, but that’s just Capitalism. Given how quickly this hobby has been enshittified over the post decade, we should probably be counting our lucky stars that it looks like Rockstar is still investing heavily into the next entry, and not just pumping out shallow annual releases like Call of Duty!

Woht24,

Wasted breath.

I’d be surprised if they did release on console and PC at the time. Literally hasn’t been done by Rockstar yet, so why would they start now?

Rockstar was a PC gaming company before they went into consoles. GTA 1 and 2 were made for PC before being ported to console.

Denjin,

And?

thatKamGuy,

I know, which is why I specifically called out from GTA3 onwards. 😜

They’ve been console first for a lot longer than not; pretty much ever since they changed their name from DMA Design to Rockstar North.

everyone is mad about the lack of pc port. im just glad her ass is great.

Psythik,

Y’all have been doing this with every GTA release since the very beginning of the series. I don’t know why everyone keeps falling for it. The PC port is coming; it always does. Most likely around Q4 2027, or Q2 2028 at the very latest.

Rockstar does this because people have very short term memories. They’re banking on your forgetfulness so that you’ll buy the console version, and then the PC version as well when they announce it a year later. The Rockstar double dip is their signature move.

dogs0n,

We wanna play on release!!! We want them big booties in our face on day one!!! Not day 365!!!

FilthyHookerSpit,

A fellow gooner 🤝 there were multiple ass shots in that trailer lmao

BenjiRenji,

Too bad I’m a boobs guy and thus can wait for the PC port.

Shardikprime,

This guy games

Even if it comes on PC, it will come with the stupid Rockstar launcher.

I have now decided to stop playing games that require anything else than just pure Steam or GOG Galaxy.

This way I could pass to Linux and don’t have to install crappy bloatware on my machine.

Danitos, (edited )

Just FYI: I’ve had a really good experience with Heroic launcher. Use for playing those Epic freebies I’ve accumilated over the years, and has been pretty solid, almost Steam-like experience.

treyf711,

I second this. I would use an epic account like a burner account and just get all those free giveaways. Heroic works for the Amazon prime games as well. I played a little bit of trek to Yomi the other day because I had a friend mentioned it was free on epic and I didn’t even realize I already had it.

dink,

Just a warning to those interested like me:

  • they don’t explicitly mention Rockstar Launcher compatibility (unless I missed it somewhere)
  • they mention possibility of a ban when trying to use online features through their launcher.

So hypothetically, if GTA VI comes to PC, this may not be a workaround for Rockstar Launcher, and even if it is, online might be a sketchy.

I struggle to connect with any of those characters. I did like Niko Bellic, he was a “character”. Maybe it was his accent, his immigrant’s take on things, don’t remember, it was a while ago.

The GTA 4 story was amazing, I missed more dramatics moments on GTA 5, the closest I felt we had for a dramatic moment was

spoilerthe killing Michael ending

SCmSTR,

Gta5v was fun to play. The story was mid. The game overall was only just okay. After online came out and we really saw the true rockstar colors, though… Mmmm yeah no.

TwoBeeSan,

4s story is my favorite of the series.

The juxtaposition of the immigrant story with the satire of America that gta normally has meshed very well. Thinking of the internet Cafe mission and Brucie. Niiko as a character brought more than the flavor of gang members previous and after.

I don’t ever pre order but Rockstar is a different beast. I will be pre ordering on the PS5 and then purchasing on PC about 6 months later. Take my moneyyyyy!

SCmSTR,

Don’t pre-order. That’s bad for everybody.

samus12345, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2

You know what’s wild? The original Vice City was a period piece, taking place in 1986, 16 years before the year it was released. This Vice City will be released 13 years after the last GTA.

TwoBeeSan,

Oh look it’s my mortality

Monster96, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2

I can see it now.

So, Jason and Lucia are together, right? Lucia gets out of jail and then Jason and Lucia start robbing again. Pulling a Bonnie and Clyde thing robbing across Vice City and the surrounding areas. But, as a result of their robberies, something from either of their pasts comes back to bite them. Maybe Lucia has some connections to the cartels and is the reason why she got canned. Or Jason got her out by doing making a deal with someone he shouldn’t have. Either way, kinda like what happened with Michael in the last game, they’re forced to work with the cartels and corrupt cops. And, eventually, it gets to the point that they’ve become so infamous that either the cops are cartels have it out for them. But, they offer them a deal. To either Jason or Lucia. You wanna live? Kill the other. If you don’t, you’re both dead. That’s gives us multiple endings like GTA V. Either Lucia dies, Jason, or both.

If it’s anything like Bonnie and Clyde, the ending is not going to be fun.

simple,

But it turns out they fake their deaths and the camera pans to a small town in mexico: “15 years later…” where you play as their child and discover they’re both alive and well, but bored with their lives. They reminisce on the good old days of adventure before reading the mail and discovering a potential bank to rob. “One last heist, eh?” one says to the other before both of them smile and the screen cuts to black.

Hire fans, or something

CitizenKong,

Does Scully make an appearance as well?

Shardikprime,

Directed by Michael bay

DoucheBagMcSwag,

Oh I’m definitely keeping Lucia alive

I am so happy for the release of this game. It looks like the perfect summer title too

I don't even care anymore.

I love GTAV and play Online almost everyday. But this bullshit about delays and more delays every year is just annoying as hell. How many years have they had to get this right?

I'm reminded of the quote "Don't let perfect get in the way of good." and I'm beginning to wonder if that's what's going on here? Are they delaying a good game because it's not "perfect" or are they just so incompetent that they have to keep going back to "fix" things???

And watch, when it does come out it'll be buggy as hell. Everyone will be asking "You've had all of this time. Why are there so many bugs?" and Rockstar will just shrug their shoulders all of the way to the bank.

Every time they delay the game my thought is “well, they are updating some technology that got obsolete due the delays”

I appreciate them putting their money where their mouth is after delaying the game to next year.

Hope to see running gameplay soon.

They really like showing Lucia’s ass in these trailers…

nutbutter,

Probably the only model sculpted by hand, not generated by AI. /s

warm,

Seems to be all they had to show in this one.

dogs0n,

Givin us what we want yipeeee

iAmTheTot, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2

I’ve never regretted a GTA purchase (admittedly I didn’t get the remasters so that might be why…) so I’m cautiously looking forward to this one. Started up 5 again recently with the Enhanced version dropping on PC and man its still stupid fun.

Yawweee877h444, do games w Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer 2

Just cutscenes, no gameplay, as always with these trailers. Cutscenes look nice but that doesn’t mean shit.

Why can’t they show at least a glimpse of gameplay.

abobla,
@abobla@lemm.ee avatar

maybe they’ll release the gameplay later, it looks similar to how GTA 5 trailers were released, the gameplay came after the second trailer.

samus12345,

It’s still a year away.

echodot,

Because the game isn’t out for another year and it’s unreasonable to expect them to show current gameplay because it won’t be at all representative for the final result.

@n1ck_n4m3@lemmy.world avatar

Can’t wait to pick this up for $30 on PC 3 years after it’s released. Fuck $80 games and fuck double-dip releases that don’t release same-day on PC.

FenrirIII,
@FenrirIII@lemmy.world avatar

And it will still be full of bugs

Psythik,

Unless you have no plans to play Online, the money you’ll spend on Shark Cards trying to catch up with established players will far exceed $80. That’s why I stopped playing GTA V Online—I got tired of grinding for cash, just to keep up with the unemployed people who dedicate their lives to one game (I refuse to spend money on microtransactions in any game). Either play at launch, or don’t bother with Online.

SCmSTR,

There’s literally no reason in this day and age to not release on pc on day 1. Xb and ps market share is absolutely losing ground to pc at record time, there’s no reason anymore.

If they don’t pc release day 1, then I guess gta6 actually just comes out 2027.

Denjin,

I mean there is a reason, and that reason is they can get people to buy it twice.

It’s a shitty reason for consumers but a viable one for publishers nonetheless.
