We are very excited to let you know now that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you.
Thank you,

Am I crazy to not be excited in the slightest for this? To me it seems that every sequel to a huge title that has come out lately has been hugely half passed because the studio that made the original doesn’t really exist anymore.
No, I think that’s fair. I miss being excited about new games, but the disappointment usually hits quick and hard if I ever allow myself to. Between rampant AAA shittification that’s accelerated recently, and the fact that a lot of AAA wasn’t all that good in the first place, it’s hard to really build up any enthusiasm.
Looking at Rockstar/Take-Two’s behavior in specific, since GTAV at the very latest, it’s even harder to be optimistic. I bet they’ll even find a way to cram shart cards into single-player, the fuckers.
At least it’s rumored they got the FiveM guys to do the multiplayer, so maybe it’ll be less abjectly, pathetically, monstrously shitty than GTAO. I assume they’ll still find some way to ruin it, though.
Now, if it turns out it’s great, I’d be ecstatic. I’m not buying this one anywhere near release but if it seems like a drastically better deal than I’m expecting, I’ll be very, very surprised - and I’d like a game to surprise me pleasantly for once.
Personally it has more to do with the infection of MBAs into AAA game dev space than the old guard retiring.
Nono this is exactly what I’m getting at. Monetization at all costs, art be damned.
Oh my god, am I dead?
Folks, seriously though, things are going to get very exciting very quickly. It’s fun to get on the hype train, I know I will, but please remember that this will be another game. Marketers are going to try to tell us they redefined gaming but they didn’t. Don’t let the hype get so high that it ruins the experience because nothing can live up to your hopes.
Get excited, but have realistic expectations. That’ll be the best way to enjoy the game.
ITT: Miserable people and pessimists.
Seriously wtf… get a life you miserable fucks.
Hyper capitalization has ruined AAA games. Besides, what’s the point in entertainment when you know the climate apocalypse is happening all around us?
