The only thing more annoying than contrarians are the people who complain about the complaints made by contrarians. Rest assured that no amount of dissent from autists will stop this game from selling into the billions, it'll be another Balldo's Gate where a shitton of people malign it and then they ended up buying it anyway
I'll buy it if it's a Bonnie and Clyde type story, not filled with woke faggotry and not riddled with ads to try and make me purchase DLC for the game.
 
Vice City is basically Miami and Miami and Miami Beach is chalk full of pozzed queers and ghetto blacks.
We're really missing the fun aspects of commiting mass shootings in GTA which is what we all do when we get bored anyone who says otherwise is a faggot and you know it.
I enjoyed Watch_Dogs 2 for this reason, since it takes place in San Fran.
 
which one of you is this?

I bet it's going to extremely fun. 10+ years of waiting fun? Probably not.
This is one of the reasons why I tend to wait a bit on Rockstar releases. I didn't play RDR until RDR2's trailers started coming out and I'm glad for it in retrospect, because the first game was good enough to make me really eager for the second. I don't like RDR2 as much as the first but I know I would've been WAY less kind to it if I had to wait 7 or 8 years for it, that kind of wait makes you either willing to accept anything or more critical than necessary

Maybe I'm getting too old for this shit, but that trailer felt like pure, constant noise in every sense of the word. I know GTA games can get pretty hectic but let it breathe a little, Jesus. You'll get the ADHD kids hooked and paying for those twerking dances as soon as you release the online part anyway. Maybe their hand was forced after so many leaks and they had to cobble together a trailer for whatever they had laying around.
I was cautiously pessimistic about GTA V and was somewhat pleasantly surprised with it at release, so I'll try to ignore the sense of dread I got from this trailer and wait for more information.
 
Would be funny if Rockstar add a side mission where you kill some crypo bro after that guy leaked the trailer and tried to pump bitcoin with it
Would it be as cringe as that not-Shkreli mission in Watch_Dogs2?
 
The satire/imagery in the trailer hit pretty close as an exaggerated, absurdist view of modern day social media culture. I'll reserve full judgment until we have further info, but it appears they're not missing the mark as badly as I first expected.
On every other front though, it just looks like more GTA. Fine I guess, but unless they improve the mission design or the narrative is actually engaging this time, I don't see the fuss (beyond "yeah but it's GTA, man!!!"). RDR2's story did a lot of heavy lifting covering for that game's shortcomings, and it remains to be seen if they can repeat that trick after losing a lot of their most high-profile talent.
I've noticed honestly I'm seeing less of the politics in the game and more police body cam footage I'm wondering if you can have mass shootout

MuttCore game, no surprises here.
The satire is on point with this one.

To be fair, people have always bitched about niggers in GTA.

I still remember the "I can't relate to a black guy!" debates in 2004.
I hated that shit I enjoyed the GTA games and hated the "this game is too white, too black, too X," I don't care if it's 2025 or vice City has so many black people not remembering GTA San Andreas or how in America African Americans often sre seen as criminals and we're talking about criminals here.
Hasn't GTA always features black people and degeneracy? The main problem is that it won't be equal in terms of the "making fun of everyone" angle they used to have but it will still be a boatload of fun
Nah it seems like the humor will still be there like if they Fuck up the story and end up like the saints row reboot then Rockstar financially will not last. I fully expect the ability to go psycho and have random shootouts or mass shootings when players are bored to be a thing. I also expect plenty of fun to be had from random stuff. Hopefully rockstar takes comedy ques in 2024 for the game.
Most of the Miami Metro's black population lives in the northern part and falls mostly in Broward County, home to Fort Lauderdale which is where all the black on black bullshit happens.

The Sheriff's department in the trailer is Broward, the paint scheme is a hybrid of their current and old design.

They're doing their homework on Florida for sure.
I, for one, am shocked at the gross showing of absolute degenerate and nigger(!) behaviour in a GTA game, where are all the Aryan families having a nice time at the park Rockstar?

But for real the trailer was just OK, nothing too terrible, but not great either, I feel like the reveal trailer for 5 was better.
I mean GTA 5 was the reveal of next Gen tech where this game was kept on the back burner to keep milking GTA online for awhile.
