this is literally not counting a single GTAO update, whichof there have been two major ones every year for almost a decade, each introducing new characters, stories, missions, vehicles, even new locations
games were not only less expensive to make at that time period but it was still feasible financially and logistically to reserve every project to this team or that team, as opposed to the more modern practice of having all hands on deck help in pushing one project.
GTA and Elder Scrolls seem to be stuck for whatever reason.
I'm not complaining tho, like said better for them to actually release it When It's Done than shit out garbage every other year like AssCreed or something.
If so this thing has been in the worst development hell then fricking Duke nukem.
They definitely didn't start development until Sony sent out PS5 kits to start next gen development. This shit didn't start getting worked on till 2017 or 18 would be my guess
>Returning characters >Niko Bellic >All these RPG-at-E3 systems like bodies and police questioning witnesses >Speeding
Never happening, Niko because his voice actor (unless he's replaced) got in a dispute with them so they just minimised his character presence in the DLCs of 4.
And the laws and police because the body thing wouldn't make sense with the high body counts of GTA's gameplay, and speeding/the rest because lmao it's GTA do you think the children playing it won't get insanely annoyed by that shit.
Same for characters having physical differences like the woman being weaker and unable to swim, people would say it's annoying to play and complain it's sexist too
Lots of these gameplay things would only work in a slower paced game like RDR2, not the smaller feeling maps of GTA where you can get in a helicopter/jet/fast car and be on the other side of the map in about a minute and a half.
Lastly
>Taylor Swift >Justin Bieber >Michael Jackson >The Beatles
Would all never be in a GTA game now as they'd ask for way too much money even for rockstar, yes I know MJ had some songs in older games but he was still alive then and surprisingly open to his music or himself being in random things on account of being "eccentric". Also lots of the music on radio stations doesn't match, why would Rick James or Earth Wind and Fire be on the same radio station as a U2 song in a completely different genre?
GTA games with pop/rock mostly get a few iconic songs and then less expensive but still recognisable musicians/songs (usually one hit wonders), so while they might get "walk like an egyptian" or "take on me", they won't get THIS many expensive songs from expensive stingy songs from artists who made a LOT of songs.
And why the frick would flashfm play alice in chains lol. AND no details on the celebrity hosts other than dre?
The Beatles songs are notoriously hard to licence for anything ever, not just because of insane cost but also because they're a bunch of hippies who don't want it in anything too bad, I somehow doubt they're about to break that streak for it to play in a bloody GTA game
I can't remember ANY beatles songs appearing in any games I've played and very rarely in other media that isn't games, with that wiki saying they've only appeared in singing games which seems to be a decent source having checked more obscure artists on there. So from those two links and personal memory I think it's safe to say the music part is definitely bullshit, not to mention it's completely tonally different from Rick James, U2 and Village People all on the same station? If there's one thing Rockstar care about it's how much money the songs in their games cost and what stations each one is on. Hence why they get more and more unique songs made for the game on newer stations they've added to GTAO as it's easier and likely cheaper than licencing an expensive song
I misread the stations but U2 and Rick James still don't belong on the same station, and the Beatles doesn't belong on the same station as LMFAO, they're all too tonally different from other songs
That all this effort for it all to be made up? This is a long mother fricking read this must be the most autistic video game fan to ever live if this is fanfic.
The real answer is because it’s still selling. Releasing a new one will kill any more sales of GTAV so there’s no reason to make GTAVI until people stop buying GTAV
Red Dead Redemption 2 was their swan song, it will be remembered as the final true Rockstar game, whatever the company puts out in the future will not be the same.
>Red Dead Redemption 2 was their swan song, it will be remembered as the final true Rockstar game, whatever the company puts out in the future will not be the same.
This. T2 is a public and shareholders will expect an even bigger return than V/Online. No Benzies, No Housers. Everything is pointing to this game being awful and RDR2 singleplayer. was their last magnum opus.
>give me undead nightmare 2 and also AT LEAST a 60 fps patch
Never going to happen as they just (allegedly) canceled a RDR1 remaster to shift resources to GTAVI
They will never touch Red Dead Redemption 2 again, lol.
Red Dead Redemption 3 will probably happen, but it will be like a wackier and much less serious game, something akin to GTAV but in the west
yeah i know it wont happen, and with dan houser leaving i also know their next game most likely wont be anywhere near as good as rdr 2
thats why i hate them
They will never touch Red Dead Redemption 2 again, lol.

Been playing their games since 1999. The important people involved clearly shifted interest towards making more serious games with GTA IV. We got IV, RDR and Max Payne 3, but because of the pissing and screaming babies they had to make GTA a toybox for people that don't care about anything beyond Content™ so they just made San Andreas 2 without any of the soul of the original, because clearly there's no passion involved with V it's just a hodgepodge of shit thrown at the wall to appease the ADHD generation.
Red Dead Redemption 2 was a passion project, like GTA4 was, like RDR was.
Its either gonna be the most expensive vidya development of all time even surpassing realistic horse balls or its gonna be a f2p piece of shit multiplayer only game once V stops making money as fast as they want it to
No point financially. Big AAA games need a lot of time to make back the development costs, hence why they're filled with MTX and other shit even if they're single player games. Comparing to Elder Scrolls series, the gap between Daggerfall to Oblivion is smaller than that of Skyrim to today.
There aren't enough consoles out there for Rockstar to justify putting GTA out now even. A realistic number for them to pull is unironically 50 million copies sold in a week and there aren't even 50 million consoles out there, so why bother?
This is true and has always been on my mind there's just isn't enough next Gen systems out there in the wild. That's why they don't give a frick they will wait until 2027 if they fricking have to if it takes that long for more people to get PS5s
It would be nice if R* drops the whole one GTA or Red Dead game a decade model, they have so many IPs and so much money that you'd think there would be a lot of potential money in opening a few smaller studios to work on games like Manhunt, Midnight Club, Bully, and pic related. I realize almost that exact model didn't work for Groove Street Games but that doesn't mean people who aren't moronic can't do it.
I guess the steady flow of money from online is safer but a man can dream
I think you're right about access to next gen hardware
A few years ago I would have bet money that they were going to shoot for a cross gen game or even a late gen title then port it over for double dipping like they did with gtaV but we're too far into the ps5/xbsex life for that.
Rockstar hires morons who know a little bit of the stack rather than people who actually know how to code. I know because I got 100% on their test but got denied after because I didn’t have any react experience at the time. Even though I literally learned react in a week at another job afterward.
Because children keep giving rockstar £60 a month. Why would they make something that's going to make £60 once and their target audience start autistically screeching because it's not online?
Go talk to some normiefriends at work with kids. All kids ask for now is money for microtransactions. My friends kid spent £500 on roblox twice, microsoft refunded the first one.
They don't want pocket money or if they get it it goes on GTA Online/fortnite.
Frick I was the same except I'd be getting the 4 for £20 used games at gamestation when I was 13 not shitty skins or power ups.
it's on purpose so us, 30+ you boomers pushing 40 can still feel young and in touch
because the hot shit, what you play talk and meme about is still gta 5, skyrim, and minecraft, nothing has changed you are still young and with it, no worries m8
Yknow that shitty pic of chudjak or whatever and Chad praising pokemon games in their younger days and later on in life the chud is still doing that with the new ones even though they suck?
GtaV online is still alive and making money.
A new GTA will force to move a lot of population to that new game, and maybe they wont recoger the money soon.
Which is sad. Gta online isn't worth it FiveM on PC is leaps and bounds better then gta online and it's scamming bullshit too unlock shit with money cheaters and paying Sony or MS for online.
Frick all that BS. I fricking wish console peasants weren't such goddamn sheep.
GTA 4 was the only good one, the gta that came before was great for their time butbaged terribly and gta 5 was a parody of itself and a step back in every way that mattered.
GTA 6 is going to be full of tired pop culture references, average gameplay at best and forced social justice bs
The only good one with good physics. Sure Niko is way better than Franklin Trevor and Michael.
But the game is boring as sin. There's nothing too do.
And what I like about San Andreas and GTA5 is there's actually country and different locations instead of all city.
California is a beautiful location when you take out all the homeless people and democrats
>But the game is boring as sin. There's nothing too do.
The missions are very grounded in reality and not that entertaining or challenging, but the fricking around factor with IV physics is sky high. What more do you want to do? Besides exploration.
Literally the only thing I do on GTA Online is stunt race. I've never been as good at a game or a part of a game as I am aat stunt races. I really hope GTA 6 has them. And hopefully people actually play deathmatch again, at least when it launches. I remember when GTA Online first launched tons of people were playing deathmatch and it was loads of fun. Especially the prison yard with the bus.
gta 6 will simulate the entire world, last leak they were finishing the details in new zealand and getting ready to start sculpting china, it should be released within a couple of years.
its extremely difficult to create realistic, compelling drama and satire these days without pissing off extremely online professional outrage merchants. It suffocates creatively and creates an internal policeman. You end up internalizing the commands of your oppressor until you are something less than human.
GTA 6 will cost a frickton to make so they're milking GTA 5 for as long as they can
They're not making it.
They are. They cancelled GTA 4 and RDR remakes to actually work on it
they're waiting for people to get less mad at live service and microtransaction before they unleash all that
Why rush when GTA5 is still bringing in money?
>dood why don't they just shit out a new GTA every year like call of duty bro!
have a nice day
it's almost been a decade bro
It's unironically over GTA-bros. R* is dead.
this is literally not counting a single GTAO update, whichof there have been two major ones every year for almost a decade, each introducing new characters, stories, missions, vehicles, even new locations
and a new one next week that's going to fix literally everything wrong with the current game
It's really going to make the game offline only and have a long and enjoyable single player experience?
reminder
they literally released multiple high quality games every year
how do you think they got such a legendary status?
cope
cope that your take is shit?
theres nothing to cope about moron
hard cope
games were not only less expensive to make at that time period but it was still feasible financially and logistically to reserve every project to this team or that team, as opposed to the more modern practice of having all hands on deck help in pushing one project.
It's been 9 years
Also Skyrim was 11 years ago. Where the frick is TES VI?
How does a company survive without releasing a new installment of their main franchise at least once a decade?
hearty kek, try making the bait a little less obvious
GTA and Elder Scrolls seem to be stuck for whatever reason.
I'm not complaining tho, like said better for them to actually release it When It's Done than shit out garbage every other year like AssCreed or something.
Unironicly they probably started development last year
have you paid your subscription yet?
No because I have Amazon prime.
Shameless

anybody think the mega leak is real?
>Development since 2014
If so this thing has been in the worst development hell then fricking Duke nukem.
They definitely didn't start development until Sony sent out PS5 kits to start next gen development. This shit didn't start getting worked on till 2017 or 18 would be my guess
rdr2 was in development since 2012
>Returning characters
>Niko Bellic
>All these RPG-at-E3 systems like bodies and police questioning witnesses

Never happening, Niko because his voice actor (unless he's replaced) got in a dispute with them so they just minimised his character presence in the DLCs of 4.

Don't know....
half of GTA Online streams are police larps so can believe the wanted system changes.
As for the RDR "slowness" I think thats just the design rockstar is going for. Playing GTA 4/5 after VC/SA is slow too.
You're way off with the music arguement too.
The Beatles songs are notoriously hard to licence for anything ever, not just because of insane cost but also because they're a bunch of hippies who don't want it in anything too bad, I somehow doubt they're about to break that streak for it to play in a bloody GTA game

There's two left and the both of them are almost dead, it's really whoever still has the rights to their music.
apparently they're letting you run inside the casino in the next gtao update
Reads like a fanfic to me.

You're on a board with several resident autists, you should know that autism knows no bounds.

Time to let go too and be Chad.
what's even worse than gta 6 taking too long is that gta 7 will even take 15 years at least
The fact that we won't get Get GTA7 until the end of the 2030s early 2040s.....
We have to find some innovation where game development isn't this fricking monotonous.
Maybe we'll get to a point where AI can develop and make the process go much faster.

Blame Trump
Now that's an ESG moment, Larry would be proud
wow, that's some fricking bullshit, why does america do shit like this?
Brits make gta
They are looking for a way that a playable female criminal won't use sex as a tool and extortion method
because 6 is bigger than 5 you moron
gta 6 will simulate the entire world, last leak they were finishing the details in new zealand and getting ready to start sculpting china, it should be released within a couple of years.
They're already working on it, cancelled rdr2 online shit to focus/get more people working on GTA 6.
kek that's just bullshit so they can softly cancel RDO because it's not making money
I wouldn't doubt it, but the people that like it are super into it. GTAVO is already dated.
its extremely difficult to create realistic, compelling drama and satire these days without pissing off extremely online professional outrage merchants. It suffocates creatively and creates an internal policeman. You end up internalizing the commands of your oppressor until you are something less than human.
Because GTAO still makes a ton of money.
