Grand Theft Auto V release date: 17 September 2013. This is why I absolutely hate GAAS games. You never really know when they'll pull something like this. Even nine years after launch. They also confirmed this for the next one without having to say anything at all. Because you know it'll be in there from the start. Which means I'm out. The last Rockstar game I liked was Bully, because there wasn't, and still isn't anything else like it. And that was back in 2006.
I think that's what rolling this out now is really about and why it isn't GTA V+, it's GTA+.
If they announce paid online in the context of being new with GTA VI's release people would be up in arms. But by adding it to GTA V they can limit the backlash and normalize this well ahead of the new game's release. And by that time gamejournos will probably be saying that not liking GTA VI because of it is "review bombing" (while they no doubt have free credit) because GTA V already had it.
Now GTA is literally grand theft.
they went from grand theft auto, to making it cheaper to steal an actual car
Good luck keeping it running with the cost of fuel.
I thought stealing was always the cheaper option.
Bold move. Most MMOs do the opposite. Start out with a subscription and as the years go by drop it to encourage more players.
Nope.
I play RD:O ... better community and haven't had to buy premium currency. There's enough avenues to earn it.
You really think Rockstar is going to stop at GTA? That kind of naivety belongs in 2010
No. They'll turn RD:O into the worst of GTA:O and blame male gamers for the toxicity after introducing tranny flags for your camp.
WHAT!? Red Dead Online has been a shit show from the very beginning. All they had to do was follow the damn
trainfirst game’s multiplayer. That was great! But instead, they tried to duplicate the money milking machine that is GTA:O.I'm comparing it to the gta:o community. Each has their shitty players, but I encounter many fewer in rd:o. And I find it easier to frustrate the assholes in rd:o.
It would have been nice if you included a source for this. I've taken the liberty of doing it for you.
Nope. It's a barely passable "free" time waster. I can find a billion things I'd rather sprinkle money on.
Wheres bully 2? Jimmy fighting SJWs and MIGA cuckservatives.
MIGA?
Make Israel Great Again
Ah! Good, I agree, MIGA is good.
Shocking.
Why?
Make israel great again
I agree, Israel should be great again.
israel shouldn't exist
Why?
Can you go into details what Palestine is that?
So basically Grand Theft Auto is the metaverse
It's also a total joke of an offering. The Aquarius upgrade is a scam, IMO. Sure, the yachts are an ingame luxury, but there's little reason to get anything beyond the Pisces. The 500k is literal pennies if you spend even a little bit of time learning the Casino Heist or Cayo Perico.
Aside from that, it's just boosters which is the most pathetic thing you can 'offer' players. Charging players a monthly fee so you can increment a variable by 1 is the most lazy shit possible.
"BuT mUtA!" made a good video explaining more of it in detail if you care.
Is it worth buying the Series X|S version of Online?
