You're so angry whites are racially aware lol. Cry harder that people aren't going to play this slop. Guess you ignored the faggot leftists I posted that worked on this game with "trans rights are human rights" in their bio. You're so above it all!

You can't shoot the injuns in RDR 2, you really think modern Rockstar where most of the original people left and have been replaced by he/hims isn't going to have restrictions on doing the same on minorities? The Housers aren't even writing this one. You people are so confused and sad. You have no idea what's been going on in that company. Fucking Jason Schreier of all people came out with an article saying Rockstar has made a deliberate intention to not "punch down" in GTA 6 and actually removed tranny jokes from GTA 5. You're a dummy.

Shortly after Dylann Roof, Rockstar removed the confederate flags from the The Lost's hideout in GTA 5. Company's been faggy for a while.

Can you fucking read, or are you illiterate as well as being an inbred rape baby? I dont plan on fucking playing this game either. I never liked gta. Take your fucking pills schizoid. The black demons in the funky light box aren't going to hurt you.

I'm pointing out fucking stupid it is to seethe over black people being portrayed in a video game. Specifically when said video game is a fucking parody of modern day America. Fucking shock of all shocks, black people are in america.
You aren't "Racially aware" you are a shrieking retard with a sore asshole.

I've never really understood GTA. I tried playing it once but all the sex, drugs, violence weirded me out. It seems to just be a surrogate activity for people to act out their worst fantasies without being destructive in real life.

That's just as true for GTA as it is for people who want to fantasize about going to war without actually going to war so they fire up CoD or who want to learn to fly a plane without going deep into debt so they buy MS Flight Simulator. It's fun to be the bad guy once in a while and do all those things in pretend that we would never do in real life. I mentioned it in the Bully thread but Rockstar used to have a game called State of Emergency. You're supposed to run around in the middle of a riot and shoot security forces, and were penalized by killing civilians but you could put in codes and get stuff like unlimited ammo, bulletproof, etc. I worked in retail when this came our (2001-ish) and it was such a stress relief to run around a mall and just mow masses people down with a Gatling gun. I would never even think about doing that in real life, but it was fun to do at the end of the day after dealing with customers all day. Just like stealing a car and driving over pedestrians or shooting down airplanes in a stolen attack chopper or driving a boat up on a beach to hit as many sunbathers as I can or you get the idea.

This latest installment is really just a reflection of our culture. It's bland, black, and cringeworthy.
I don't understand getting riled up about it though, I mean did you really think that the modern gaming industry was going to churn out anything good after gamergate and #MeToo? lol, lmao even. The "people" in charge of writing and developing these games are troons or women or just soycucks.
Also, why are so many rightists getting their panties in a bunch about this game? The sentiment is anger because it's not like the other installments. But, the other installments are all games that glorify niggerism and crime. seems contradictory to me.

Just my opinion. I feel like people are making a bigger deal over this than there has to be. It's just a reflection of the culture as a whole

I think there are three real problems:

1) We know Rockstar isn't going to be edgy or a humorous look at culture like it was in the past. It's simply too easy to offend and God knows we wouldn't want to do that. So it will be boring without that tongue in cheek humor we used to know GTA had in spades. It doesn't help that because of the politics of today you just can't criticize non-whites or women or the Alphabet Brigade. In the past GTA could and did treat everyone as fodder for jokes and social commentary. Now, how can they possibly poke fun at anyone that isn't a WASP hetero male without being destroyed in online and in the press? While there is no such thing as bad press there is such a thing as gunshy companies that don't want to hurt their own sales. It will end up costing GTA half of what made it great: the atmosphere of the game.

2) So many of the people who made GTA what it is are gone. The Housers and Lazlo for example. How do you have the radio station hosts and banter without Lazlo's hand in it? What is the background of the people replacing them? Are they able to capably step into those shoes? It remains to be seen, but given the whole "let's go out of our way to hire women and minorities and recent university grads who don't know how to make a joke out of fear of offending" I'm not holding my breath.

3) Miami of 2023 is boring. Yeah it's full of blacks and Hispanics but what else does it have going for it? And going back to point one above, there is only so much they can do with the setting because of the fear of offending. You have poor blacks tweking on stolen cars, rich Jews in God's Waiting Room, drug dealing Hispanics, redneck whites, and what else? What else does the setting have that it can use? One of the real criticisms about the GTA and RDR games is that they are so linear and that there isn't much to see or do outside of missions and what is there gets old quickly. I don't just mean pastimes like stealing a plane or sightseeing, but what else is there for flavor to distinguish it from other games in the series? The radio stations are likely to be a mix of rap/Hispanic/pop with little else, something that GTAV deservedly was criticized for. Other than what we've seen in the trailer of an east coast version of Lamar and friends, it doesn't seem all that different than what we found in GTAV.

Personally, I can live with a female protagonist if it's done right and not just GIRL POWER and YAS KWEEN. I would have love to have seen a version of mid-80s Vice City writ large with a hooker who climbs the ladder to become La Madrina, a Redneck smuggler who specializes in square grouper, and a dirty cop who all end up having to work together to take down the city.

I'm calling for a petition to fire whoever thought it was good idea to put this in the game.

Tranny-tier "Take your meds schizoid" insult, "cope and seethe", "I actually never liked this game", being overly crude (Can you say inbred rape baby? Watch out! Anyway why do most blacks look like gorillas) to compensate for being a nigger lover, I get it man. You really love the most useless species on earth. Good for you.

I'm sorry people don't care about a sequel to a game series that hasn't been good since the Bush era. People have more important things to care about.

I thought it was already progressive to be able to blow the hookers brains out after the back alley blowjobs. It is worse though that you'll have to play as a woman, let alone a dirty brown person. Games automatically suck when the cast doesn't look exactly like you

Is this me or does Big smoke look like fatter and black version of Linkara? I can't get that image out of my head.

 

[butth3ad]

Why does the main protagonist have to be a mystery meat mutt abomination? Out of all other possible protags they had to choose the worst one. Instead of trying to appeal to their semitic overlords by choosing an ugly amerimutt protag, they should instead choose a protag that's actually attractive.

I mean dayum just look at this. I don't want to play this game when I see this 95% of the time

 

[snort beg snort]

There's a near zero chance that this game isn't filled to the brim with woke dogshit. The question is: will there be enough redeeming factors to redeem some of the purple haired cringe?

Probably not.

 

[AngryItalianAmerican]

"I don't know what to say because I got alpha'd" I get it man it's okay. Enjoy playing as an epic badass Latina hacker!

Did my assessment highlighted the spic protagonist?

I was awestruck by the idiocy of predicting that a sequel to the most profitable entertainment product of all time wouldn't be experienced by a lot of people.

Now the alpha part is hilarious, because it implies being overreactive and irrational is something to boast about.

Keep on sailing, Cap'n Retard.

 

[snort beg snort]

I don't get you weirdos who think we won't be able to shoot people of color or that somehow the violence will be restricted against only white or cops. Rampages are baked into the core of the gta experience, do you think your gun will just stop working when you aim it at a black person or something? I just don't see it. The game is gonna be woke as fuck but unless there's some kind of radical departure from the core gameplay formula, there's no way we arent getting to kill big booty nigresses.

I doubt there will be a mechanic where blacks and women are bulletproof, but I do have doubts the commentary on urban tribesmen and dangerhair women will be as prevalent as it has been in the past. That's what concerns me more than anything. In the past GTA took swipes at everybody. I love listening to the talk radio stations, the radio and TV commercials because nobody is spared. With how cravenly PC and afraid of offending and politically one-sided the world is these days there is no way they are going to be able to do the same as in the past.

But it is funny you mention not being able to kill certain groups because that was a game mechanic in Scarface: The World Is Yours. You could drive on sidewalks and hit pedestrians but Tony Montana couldn't shoot random people. If you tried he would saying something along the lines of "I never shoot anyone who didn't try to fuck me over". Criminals could be shot all day long, but just some guy on the street? Nope. I doubt GTA6 will go that route.

 

[snort beg snort]

They should just say fuck everyone and dunk on troons and boon culture and then when they get attacked for it say hey we goofed on whites too. Like South Park has gotten away with forever.

I just don't get why screeching twitter trannies dictate the media we get to consume.

Imagine if everyone was just like "no, lol"

Poltards sure seem to express lack of interest weirdly, considering this thread grew 53 pages since Monday

 

[YouGuysAren'tThatSmart]

Please let this bomb critically and bankrupt Rockstar. if Todd Howard isn't going to get what's coming to him, then atleast let all the retards at Rockstar suffer

In fairness how many of those pages were people screeching about niggers? In GTA of all franchises.

A Thread getting featured is the kiss of death.

I was on this thread before the trailer came out, faggot.

I find the location a little derivative from V's. IV's New York was vastly different.

Also seconded on a LA Noire style game set in 1980s Miami. Miami Blues is a favourite film and I love the books that go along with them. Corrupt cops trying to eek out a living or just make rent money. Miami is the natural Noire setting for a sequel.

Really wish we somehow got an LA Noire game set in the late 60s with Tate-LaBianca as a backdrop.

All this political masturbation "discussion" is distracting from the point that this game is going to be yet another incredibly bland open world with missions that end because you got out of the car before parking it within the designated spot. To be fair, Rockstar does it better than most with their frighteningly huge budgets and hellish office culture, but there won't be any real substance behind the flash.

Open world crime games peaked with Saints Row 2. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get another bottle of whiskey and return to the shower to cry some more.

Steven Ogg hates GTA now? That's disappointing. (If I recall CJ also hates it...he's cousins with Franklin's actor) Tbf Lamar >>>>>

Like he doesn't have to be all Mommie Dearest Faye Dunaway about it. The game franchise launched him into the stratosphere. Why be angry and resentful of it?
