GTV VI delayed. Was Aug 2025 too soon for all the rewrites required since SBI has killed profit? (twitter.com)

I doubt they could unfuck a woke game within a year

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.

Yup.

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.

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

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
