Game has at least two protagonists. They'll try to pull a reverse AC:Shadows and move some of her missions to the other character. Shadows couldn't be unfucked either, so you're probably right.
They still have GTA V and shark cards, there's enough money with that alone to unfuck this game.
Speaking of which, I wouldn't be surprised if GTA V is the reason for delays as 2K gets plenty of money from that so any risk to GTA Online's cash cow status INCLUDING a lackluster sequel probably gets immediate refusal or delay.
Time table anlone isn’t enough to unfuck it. This game has been in development for over a decade, they’re not going to do massive script rewrites, scene changes, and voice acting in a year. It would have to be delayed until 2028 at least for that.
Most performance capture overhauls for even a couple of scenes can take anywhere between three to six months depending on the complexity of the scene and whether or not there is gameplay involved. They have to resync audio, resync pathfinding, modify facial capture, and adjust, bug fix, and test any accompanying gameplay.
They already had all of the scripting done back in 2018 and were implementing and tuning gameplay around the script from then onward (based on the footage from the leaked builds).
A delay from August to May is only nine months. If I had to guess they aren't overhauling anything, just further polishing and testing what's already there and delaying for the extra stability. You also have to minus three months for logistical certification and going gold, so that technically only leaves them with six months of additional work. That's literally just bug fixing and QA testing.
Whatever wokeness was implemented in the game is going to stay in the game.
You can’t mod online without getting banned and that’s where the vast majority are going to be and I’m betting where the majority of the resources went. GTA online is their cash cow. They already said they weren’t going make fun of “underprivileged” people anymore so it’s going to be fuck whitey the game. At best they tone that down and it becomes a bland game like the saints row reboot.
If the actual gameplay was you're a white supremacists motorcycle gang member and you go around yelling the N word at people, sales would break gaming records.
They've surprised their audiences every time they've released. Sometimes for the better, sometimes not.
But this particular game has been the target of all these Mary Sues, Uncle Toms and Aunt Jemimas (Their gender, libido and complexion normative allies too) for a long time. The original founders fled by 2020 and so it's been a cesspit of angry unskilled sex obsessed people for a while now.
We might get lucky and get a final DLC for GTA V with Lazlo doing a Dark Knight Harvey Dent and being the hero Gotham needs right now xD
Yeah WTF is going on with Apple? I’m suddenly seeing reports of out-of-app purchases or something? Every development I’ve seen with the app store has seemed to be an EU thing but did something happen in the US?
Apple and Epic were locked in a battle because Fortnight (And Epic game) charged more for in-game credits on the Apple store than it did in-game through Epic's store (30% more).
Apple won the original battle that was put against them from Epic as they hosted a "Paid for" game on their store and therefore Epic couldn't make any profit from Apple users if they hadn't already made profit through their services. A model Apple used across all of its services.
Epic then made Fortnight free-to-play (With exclusive skins for players who had already bought it) which pulled that rug out from Apple's feet. Apple then took them to court stating that they were required monies from Epic for 'Hosting' their content in their store in the first place.
Long(ish) legal battle later and Apple lost, and some of the EU rules for microtransactions are now in place, by US law, on the Apple store.
In future, at the moment at least, it will now be more profitable for a company to release a free version of a game which they charge for later through optional DLCs/microtransactions which bypass the vendor of said gatekept community.
This will be appealed and there will be more tussle but, for the moment, Apple users would benefit from going for free AAA games as more money can be turned to more development of said games.
I saw the wokeness creeping in as early as RDR2. It wasn't in your face beyond unskippable lectures from feminists or non-whites while you rode next to them for five minutes straight. Or a few side quests about evil whitey or evil men.
God only knows how bad this one will be. Female grrlboss protagonist is already a bad sign of things to come.
No doubt they ran into trouble with the estate of George Floyd, which demanded more money, alongside an obligatory humiliation ritual side plot for white gamers.
Yep. Big corporate studios are really bad about cultivating and retaining talent, even within development of a single title. One can only imagine the sloppy code cobbled together from separate waves of college grads and outsourced pajeets that this game will be built from.
Has Rockstar figured out that lecturing all of their customers like an auntie Denise is not the right way to sell the next instalment of this previously controversial, for all the right reasons, franchise?
A year to go still for all those hyped for playing this.
No doubt it will be consoles first, Rocksteady only, then an Epic release with Steam being around 2030.
As long as the content is good I've no issue with that. But with money being money and microtransactions having been their bread and butter for over a decade now, I'm not sure that's going to be the case this time around.

No. I don't expect them to be redesigning this game to be less cucked than originally planned at all. In fact, they might be making it even more cucked in response to the second Trump presidency, filling it up with more globalist propaganda, with all the rhetoric that entails (anti-Trump, anti-White, anti-straight, anti-male, anti-American, pro-illegals, pro-black crime, pro-faggotry, etc.).
Aside from that, I suspect the delay is because of the usual issue of development being more difficult than anticipated, especially of such a huge project. That, and maybe because they're looking into more predatory MTXs based on whatever new studies scumbag psychologists have released to entice players into paying more.
It does look less likely that they are going to have crypto or web3 shit in there, but I won't hold my breath for just about anything else in it. (I don't think you believe it's likely at this point - do you think differently?)
No, I don't think we'll be seeing that kind of monetization. Wouldn't be surprised if they put in more gambling mechanics, whether they be the usual lootboxes or even literal gambling. Spin the wheels and you could win a BRAND NEW CAR (in-game)!
I think GTA6 is going to disappoint and/or piss off everyone while also making the most money in video game history. The Critical Theorists aka leftists will bitch and moan because that behavior is hard-baked into their ideology. Conservatives will bemoan the violence and degeneracy. Real right wingers will note the rampant girl power and anti-white messaging. Real gamers will balk at the shit optimization and sluggish, outdated gameplay. But everyone is going to buy it and play it regardless, and the “content creators” and braindead masses will guzzle that slop down with gusto.
I hate how right you are -- worse yet is that there are going to be the anti-woke grifters who will make excuses why it's such as "great game" despite the wokeness, and hailing it as the Second Coming.
You know how nexus bans mods that try to make the game whiter?? What if you made a mod that makes the game blacker?? But then promote it by saying you made it so every person you run over or shoot is black lol.
All the other games studios will be shitting themselves just now. They'd either put everything on hold or pulled it forward, unfinished, because they didn't stand a chance against GTA.
Now all those plans will be wrought.
I'm sure that new girl who started in the public toilet cleaning services (Melisa or something or other) will be ecstatic that there's fresh shit to rub herself in while screaming at the mirror.
Ugh. As much as I hate Ubisoft for being a slop factory, at least they're the only big game corporation that feels like it uses its hundreds of employees efficiently with how quickly they pump out new titles. Others slow to a crawl as they grow bigger. Bethesda, CDPR, Square-Enix and others take more than an entire console generation's worth of time just to make ONE. FREAKING. GAME. And Rockstar is the worst one of all. As another user said in another topic, the gap of time between GTA5 and GTA6 is going to be longer than the entire time it took to make EVERY previous GTA combined! And even if we count their last big release, Red Dead Redemption 2, it'll still have been ridiculous eight years!
And we all know we're not going to see that level of work, except in maybe the most useless stuff, such as many different oversized ass-shaking dances they animated. It's gonna be a obnoxiously buggy mess that'll take months for them to fix at least. And the singleplayer will likely be an afterthought, if not in general then definitely in comparison to the older games, because Rockstar knows the money now lies in multiplayer, and that's where they're going to put the majority of their focus.
And this is without taking the woke messaging into account.
I fully expect it to still be fake and gay when it releases. With any luck it will crater the studio and the publisher along with it and serve as a warning to the rest of the industry. I want Rockstar's corpse paraded through town when it happens to scare all the faggots still embedded in the industry into making good games instead of political propaganda.
I doubt they could unfuck a woke game within a year
Grrlboss protagonist. There's no unfucking it
Game has at least two protagonists. They'll try to pull a reverse AC:Shadows and move some of her missions to the other character. Shadows couldn't be unfucked either, so you're probably right.

As long as modders are still allowed to do their thing the game could be good within that time.

Enough time for us to get used to $80 - $90 games so that they can bump shit up to $110 - $120 range.
They might give this one away for free, as a gimmick, and then pump that microtransaction DLC for all it is worth.
Bypass the Apple store tax by doing so too (Thanks Epic!).

43 year old Muta has a video on it all :)

Yeah American Krogan did a good video covering that.
There was probably some of that in GTAV tbh.
No doubt they ran into trouble with the estate of George Floyd, which demanded more money, alongside an obligatory humiliation ritual side plot for white gamers.
Doubt they needed George Floyd's "grieving" family to demand anything. Rockstar's so cucked, they'll happily flagellate themselves.
This game was dead the second they announced "female protagonist." That was like a decade ago.
This game, ignoring all the stupid political stuff, will likely be a mess due to how big it is and how long they've been working on it.
The fallout will be glorious :)
Nah, they have enough inertia for several flops in a row.
Yep. Big corporate studios are really bad about cultivating and retaining talent, even within development of a single title. One can only imagine the sloppy code cobbled together from separate waves of college grads and outsourced pajeets that this game will be built from.

Take-Two Plunges After Delaying Grand Theft Auto VI
https://www.infowars.com/posts/take-two-plunges-after-delaying-grand-theft-auto-vi
they probably delayed it again to cram some more NFK propaganda into the game
I fully expect it to still be fake and gay when it releases. With any luck it will crater the studio and the publisher along with it and serve as a warning to the rest of the industry.
