I'm mad about GTA VI cause Rockstar never did an Undead Nightmare DLC for RDR II.

Maybe it's my algorithm, but I see a minimum of one post per day of OP saying they don't care about GTA VI. I've literally seen zero posts talking about how hyped they are. Just leaks or news about the game, but I wouldn't equate those to anyone declaring their excitement for the game. Having said that, it's a culturally significant game and the wider audience is excited for it. But here on reddit it seems to be in vogue to declare your apathy for the game.

I like how in this thread, you both have folks who are calling OP stupid for stating that they don’t care about GTA VI like it’s just some little thing they can just easily ignore, and then the other half of the commenters are demonstrating that it’s actually not easy to ignore and would definitely get on someone’s nerves by declaring “it’s the biggest fucking game of all time, you better care buddy, it’s gonna ripple through the whole industry, tons of games are avoiding releasing the same month just so they don’t compete with GTA”. Like, yeah. It might seem hard to imagine but there are people who don’t care for these games, and it feels sometimes like a release this big is just sucking all the air out of the room and dominating all conversations. That’s a totally valid feeling to have. But no, keep posting your clever little comebacks and Rick & Morty gifs like it makes you morally superior that you care about a popular video game and OP doesn’t.

Every GTA brings a new benchmark to the table, and I'm worried that 6 will just be "5 but even better" instead of introducing something new.
GTA: launched the entire subgenre
GTA2: gangs, loyalty bonuses
GTA3: third-person
GTAVC: properties with passive income
GTASA: territories, ambient NPC dialogue based on what you're doing/how you look, gigantic map with no load screens in between areas
GTA4: actual dramatic story, play an illegal alien trying to survive vs a power fantasy like the other games, GPS and unique braking/handling performance per car
GTA5: character-switching mechanic, heists with different outcomes and loot depending on player choices, character special abilities
Hoping the 6th game keeps the trend going!

u/BusterGreasewood 8h ago
GTA4 didn't really introduce anything new. San Andreas already introduced the idea of more dramatic story (and did it better than 4 did even with having humor). The only thing GTA4 did that was new to GTA specifically was GPS and the idea of having multiple endings.

Epic gave me GTA 5 for free. Still haven't played it. Hell, I bought rdr2 about two years ago for $10. I haven't gotten past the hunting tutorial. R* games are kind of low priority on my backlog. I liked and completed rdr back in the day, but I never liked any GTA. I find them boring.

u/PestilentPaladin 8h ago
Man I LOVED RDR 1. Still think about it, the soundtrack, the song that plays the first time you ride into Mexico... I could go on.
And then I got 2 and could not figure out the hype. I wasn't engaged by or attached to the characters. The missions had this weird dream like quality to them, like stuff just kept happening to these people I was expected to do things? I guess? The scenery was lovely, the sound design was excellent, the VA was great, but the story felt aimless and disjointed. I eventually just stopped playing, but it seems so beloved now.

Brother i wish you had given it more of a chance because if you liked RDR1 RDR2 was a masterpiece. It’s such a great game when you have the first games events as context.
Meeting all these people you had to hunt down in the first game was awesome, and the storyline was honestly really well done in my opinion. Such a lively world too.

u/KooshIsKing 5h ago
I think by far the worst part of rdr2 compared to 1 is the insanely long intro and the endless tutorials you run into even 10+ hours into the game because they want to introduce you to yet another mechanic. I think that turns a ton of people off and really breaks the immersion of the game. I had to restart that game like 4 times before I actually got hooked by it.
