it seems almost a crime to be excited for gta6 since in every post there will be at least 30 dudes exclaiming how They will NOT be excited or buying gta6, and that they never understood the appeal
Like ok dude, great, cool, im glad you found you and you know what you want.

I slightly care about it, I've always like the series and am intrigued by this one, but I won't pay the price they're asking with no disc present. I'll get it eventually, I'm sure. There's too much other stuff to play right now,so I don't feel like I'll be missing out.

same i got a Ps5 discounted back in March and I literally have like 3 games on it cuz ive been saving up money for GTA. I have been a Nintendo and PC players for many years, so for me to go buy a freaking PS5 for a game means this shit better be good lol. Ive never even played GTA V before, only the older retro games like Chinatown, etc. And I have only seen clips and scenes of GTA V from friends/family at their homes, so for me this is going to be so much fun!

u/SmolishPPman 4h ago
My story is similar, I built a PC in 2020, after being on consoles for most my life before that, only recently did I buy a console for the first time in a long time. However, where we differ is I’ve been playing GTA since number one, and really looked forward to every new version, as they just kept getting better and better and better, so I’m really excited that they finally are gonna release the new version of the series. I envy that you aren’t super familiar with them, they’re definitely a lot of fun

yea i regret never getting super into them. i was raised to be very shy and girly when i was young so i never rlly got the chance to fully express my true self until now as an adult woman, so now is when i am finally playing more video game genres that are more "violent" or "crass". im loving it so far too so im super excited for GTA VI

It's so bizarre.
On one hand I can acknowledge Rockstars shady business practices. EA levels of greed dude.
On the other end, I personally believe Rockstar is one of those studios who sets the gaming landscape bar higher with every release. Other games have done that since the last GTA game, like Baulders Gate 3, Cyberpunk, Elden Ring, so my argument isn't that Rockstar is the only company that does this. Also I'm not going to sit here and defend GTA online (as that's the go to critique for the crowd OPs photo is describing), but I don't play GTA for online. I just think Rockstar makes high quality games, and their track history speak for itself: Bully, GTA series, Red Dead 1 & 2, Midnight Club series, Max Payne, The Warriors, LA Noir.
I understand not caring for a game, it just seems there's some desire to "be different" when you go about constantly letting others know you don't care about said game.
Just my 2 cents.

Genuine question and I’m not trying to defend rockstar and their bad business practices, what part of monetization of GTAO is predatory? Before GTA+, the only microtransactions were shark cards, anything you could get with them you could get for free. All the content and major heists are free

u/Serosh5843 /// 5h ago
I mean you pretty much nailed it, yes there's a large amount of people with no genuine interest and that's totally fine but it's mostly people who want to be different from everyone else and therefore seek validation from the other 'apathetics', ironically and eventually they start piling on each other, turning them into the average sheep they were so afraid of becoming.
Reddit is the king of mfers saying "Enjoy what you want, don't listen to the negativity and be your own person" and all that shit but then immediately turns that around by being complete asshats when that thing people enjoy is popular.

u/TrashGoblinH 2h ago
Some of it is that this game is infesting everything and people who are excited about it can be a little overbearing. Like it's cool that you're excited, but I'm not joining your religion. You know?
It starts to go from excitable to obnoxious and downright rude. Which just makes people into active haters because fanatics get bent out of shape if you say you're not fond of the trailer or think the game might just be another GTA. There's a weirdo fandom line people cross without realizing it, but try to normalize it by using popularity as a metric. Like if you're not a part of the fandom, you're the weirdo when there are more people who won't own the game than will.
It also bridges into the fact that advertising pisses some people off. I'm very much a person who refuses to buy things if the ads are invasive. Wolverine was one of the games that I started to hate the sight of because yellow and blue was pasted all over everything, every day, for like 2 months. Seeing an ad 5 or 6 times in a week is alright. Seeing it 600 times in a week is shit the CIA does to torture people.

Their super restricted, on-the-rails gameplay is extremely outdated at this point. Sure they make nice looking open worlds but the Horizon games have pushed gaming forward more than GTAV or RDR2 ever have.

u/Nearby_Struggle_0 4h ago
I get the feeling there's something else going on, more than shady actions from rockstar for it to cause rejection (remember they were praising the crunch of RDR2 , it got people excited not the opposite) there isn't quite as much excitement (by comparison), is there?
A lot of people are waiting for it, but the hype doesn't seem as massive as it was for GTA V or RDR2. I mean, back then, Rockstar simply posting an "R" logo caused a huge stir.
(Then again, maybe it's just because I'm not personally looking forward to it, unlike with RDR2.)
The trailer made a splash, but perhaps the excitement fizzled out due to repeated delays, leaks, controversies, the FPS cap, and the fact that the evolution seems minimal, leaving people thinking, "Oh, well, it's just GTA V v2."
Whereas the jump from RDR1 to RDR2 felt like a move to something far more detailed, larger, and truly immense.
Take what I say with a grain of salt, though, I’m not particularly invested in the game's development. View this as an outsider's perspective; I’d even encourage you to compare my comments with those of someone who has actually followed the game closely and might be more enthusiastic about it, for reasons that i might not even know.
1
u/OptimusCoon-Esq 2h ago
That's a valid point. I think the delays, and leaks especially made it to where the anticipation took a hit. At the same time, just looking at the gameplay, I would say there is a significant jump in quality. Sure RDR2 compared to RDR was such a huge leap it leaves me in awe, but the jump thus far seems fairly substantial from GTA 5 to 6.
I will say much of my excitement comes from playing RDR2 and loving the RAGE 8 engine and imagining how the RAGE 9 engine will feel in a contemporary setting like Vice City.

u/TheNameofTheron 35m ago
I can only speak for myself, but there are multiple reasons I'm super excited for GTA 6. For one, based on what Rockstar has already revealed to us, the game looks absolutely gorgeous, and there is a level of detail in this game that has not been present in any GTA game before. Rockstar is known for making massively detailed open worlds, and this game is no exception. As a long-time GTA fan, I am so glad that they are re-implementing many things from previous games into this one. Examples include improved car physics, the ability to lose and gain weight by eating food, and the ability to gain muscle and other stats by working out. There are a shit ton of mini-games too, such as basketball, tennis, mini golf, pool, jet skiing, hunting, and fishing. Especially on the last two, they are vastly improving the hunting mechanics from GTA V and even Red Dead 2, which already had a fantastic hunting simulator. There is improved NPC A.I in this game, as Rockstar has entire patents out specifically for NPC intelligence.
As far as new systems and mechanics go, the biggest is a vastly improved wanted system. You can commit crimes and get away with them if no one witnesses you do them, or if you aren't caught on camera. If you are caught, there are now multiple layers to how the cops work in this game. They can identify you based on how you look, what clothes you had on, what car you were driving, whether you were on CCTV, and whether or not you were partnered when you committed the crime. This makes it so the cops won't just leave you alone after you're done with a crime spree; they can find and identify you later on if you are not careful. They'll even linger around the store or bank that you robbed, doing investigations long after you leave. That shit is cool as hell to me.
Not to mention, there are supposed to be far more interiors across the map that you can enter than there ever has been in any other Rockstar game. All of these things mean so much to me as someone who has followed every GTA release since Vice City, and I can imagine other fans of the series feel the same.

u/Nosidda89 4h ago
I think part of it is that people who actually don't care about GTA 6 feel extremely unheard amongst the insane hype, and now feel more emboldened to say it because GTA 6 has controversies. GTA often feels like one of those franchises that everyone just kind of expects you to be into if you love video games. Basically, if you love gaming enough to collect merch and talk online about it on the regular, the expectation often feels like you are obviously someone who likes GTA and is going to buy it day one. And if you don't, that's seen as odd and out of the ordinary.
And there is at least some merit to that belief when you have GTA fans responding to anyone complaining about the current GTA 6 controversies with the phrase "You're still going to buy it and play it anyway, because it's GTA.".
Basically, not liking GTA can sometimes feel like being the guy who doesn't like ice cream. And when you say you don't like ice cream, everyone looks at you weird, and probably thinks you're lying.
It does genuinely seem like people who like GTA can't even fathom the idea that a gamer wouldn't like GTA. That obviously leads to people who genuinely don't like GTA feeling unheard, or feeling like the outcast in the room because they have different taste. So now that GTA 6 has some outrage behind it, because of some of the choices the publisher made, those people feel emboldened to say "I don't care about GTA 6.", because it doesn't feel like such a hot take right now like it once did.
I can vouch for this too. I have never in my life bought or played GTA 5, and I have legit gotten weird looks from other gamers in the past when I would tell them this, as if there's something wrong with me for not finding the game appealing in any way.
2
u/OptimusCoon-Esq 2h ago
I can respect that take. I would counter, though, that calling the crowd who doesn't seem to care for GTA 6 "unheard" is a bit antithetical to the point OP is making with this post. If anything, I feel like I hear more people bashing the game than praising it nowadays.
I can understand how being someone who doesn't really care for GTA could be frustrating when others expect you to like it simply because you're into gaming. But as a big video game fan myself, I've always considered GTA one of those franchises that's worth playing for the experience alone even if it's not the type of game you usually play. I'd put it in the same category as games like Minecraft or Portal in that regard.
At the same time, I think it's completely reasonable to dislike the Rockstar formula. Not every game is going to appeal to everyone, regardless of how well-made it is. But I do think there needs to be a distinction between subjective taste and objective quality. Not liking Rockstar games is one thing, but when people start claiming Rockstar makes low-quality games, that's where I get a little baffled. You can dislike a game's design philosophy while still recognizing the quality and craftsmanship that went into making it.

Main reason I do not care about GTAVI or any other Rockstar game is because years after GTAO came out they changed the Anti-Cheat and black listed Linux players from playing even tho we had been playing no problem before. Plus the new Anti-cheat is just EAC which works on Linux, so its not a cause of the Anti-Cheat not working on Linux. With that change they decided they can do without my money so I am not giving them any for anything now.

For me, it's not that I don't care, but moreso the fact that they're probably about to do some of the scummiest, anti-consumer shit that they can get away with and ride the money train with this game as long as they can.
Monetization isn't the end of the world, but considering how captured the audience is for this game at this point, we're about to see that Gordon Gekko greed with next to no pushback.

u/ReflectedMantis 2h ago
Something I see a lot among the "I don't care about GTA 6" crowd is that they keep saying it's the same as any other GTA. I find that ridiculous. It's one thing to not like or care about a game, there are plenty that I don't like as well. But I don't go onto, say, Call of Duty posts and talk about how much I hate Call of Duty and how all CoD games are the same as the last, because I don't know enough about it to come to that conclusion. I don't want to either, because I don't care about CoD.
If that's the sort of feeling you have with GTA, then that's fine, but stop telling me and the other folks who have spent years playing these games that they're all the same. It just makes you come off as dumb and disingenuous because we have actually engaged with the games enough to know otherwise.

Guys remember the internet isn't reallife. Irl people around me are so excited for GTA. I've spoken to people literally of all ages and backgrounds and they are very excited for this game. I don't even ever buy nerdy merchandise, but the Miami Heat x GTA VI shirts have been the first nerd shirt ive actively ran to buy.
I didn't even play GTA V, I'm not a huge fan of violent games, and I still disagree on the game being expensive and fully digital, but yk what...
IMA STILL BUY THIS GAME LOL. I'm so hyped like you all gotta admit the graphics look beautiful, and the soundtrack is going to be amazing. I'm also so excited to finally be able to play as a customizable female protag in this genre of game, since this franchise has been so male-centric for decades. Like I feel so seen as a latina to have the main character be one is awesome.
I'm tired of seeing all the haters online for a game that hasnt even released btw, like pls go outside and talk to your local community. Never have I seen a video game be so hyped up to this level that the entire city of Miami and its community is this excited for it! Even elderly ladies and gentlemen in my area are excited for this game.
and yes I am also looking forward to the upcoming OoT remake. Never heard so many people hype up a zelda game like that in years.

I think it's the same thing that happened when CoD was the biggest franchise, people who didn't play CoD really wanted everyone to know they didn't play the most popular game. Now that GTA is probably the most popular AAA franchise these days, people are going to let people know they don't care.
Not liking popular things makes some people think they are more cool and have more refined taste than the "normies."

Yet again I will say I just don’t give a fuck about GTA6. I have too many games to play already and none of my friends are interested in it either. Some people believe it or not DONT care about GTA6.

Honestly I hate both side that crazily obsessed with GTA6 and the other side said they dont care about gta6. Stop making so much posts about it, we get it, this will be the biggest release of the decade. We dont care you not interested in the game, just let other people have their fun. I just want to see posts other than gta 6 and people complaining about gta 6.

Sometimes you just gotta take a step back and remind yourself where you are at. This is Reddit, which has a bunch of nerds online who want to be "counter-culture" so bad. Lol

I mean, imma get it. But I can wait for it to hit PC and even then probably hit a key reseller or decent sale.

The only thing I care about less than GTA6 is whether or not a bunch of randos on the internet care about GTA6.

Ya I was enjoying the lack of reddit spam and dumb questions when that bot facility got taken out. Felt like pre covid reddit where actual discussions were happening.

When you understand who is a target audience for GTA you will get why nobody at Reddit seems to be interested in it,. especially in gaming subs.

The most popular video game of all time will, by default… have the biggest audience of those who dislike it.
It’s just simple ratios.

I don’t really care about GTA6 but I’m happy for those who are excited for it. I’ve played the hell out of all the GTA games over the years (was incredibly excited for 5, booked the next day off work with my mate and bought the game at midnight) and just got a bit tired of the formula. If it is different and amazing it’ll be a nice surprise for me, but if not, that’s fine.
However, my mate who doesn’t play many games, loved GTA5 and is super excited for 6 and I don’t want to take that away from him or anyone else just because I’m a bit bored of the series now.

It's cause hype is a currency now (almost literally on twitch) Like it's messed up and wierd how we got here. But yeah being excited publicly for something is kind of giving a company a free ad.
So doing the opposite is reclaiming that, especially if you don't like the company policies.
I really prefer just liking what you like or fuck off. It shouldn't be this complicated.
But hyper capitalism + social media had made a funky monster of simple enjoyment.

I am PC so not that excited either.
I am also a tight-arse, and typically don't pre-order or buy games as soon as they launch either and more than happy to wait till it comes out, any bugs are sorted, and it goes on sale at some point.
Case in point, I only ended up buying GTA V earlier this year for the first time - I will probably at least try to get GTA VI in the same decade it releases this time, but no promises!

It's the classic "Look at me, I'm special!" contrarian post that happens around something big.

And people who tell themselves that buying a remake of a 30 year old game is "soul"...

u/Serosh5843 /// 5h ago
And if you say you don't care about the OoT remake you get bombarded with comments and downvotes. It's pretty fucked, scrutinized for hyping a brand new game that's on a scale we've never seen before but glorified for hyping a 15 hour long remake that everyone's played before and offers nothing new besides "but muh nostalguh is kicking in."
Always good to remind myself that Reddit isn't society.

I saw a Reddit (which is appropriate for the story) but it said “I don’t care about gta6” but it was boomer shooters and the pic they said they were playing was Doom 1. Like the first doom
Bro no you don’t. A thirty year old game

I'm not exactly sure what you're saying, but I would absolutely play the classic Doom games over GTA, in fact I already do, lol. They hold up insanely well.

u/Jazzlike_Page508 3h ago
No you don’t lol. This is either performative or autism
The game that’s 2 billion dollars which is more than the tallest building in the world. Yeah aight girlfriend

You really gotta broaden your horizons if you think it's entirely inconcievable that anyone would play an old game over a new game, lol. Gamers are an incredibly diverse bunch, but you seem to have a rather narrow view of things.
For the record, I love plenty of new games with pretty graphics too, so don't get your panties in a knot.

u/Jazzlike_Page508 3h ago
I never said I didn’t. But I’m saying not understanding the hype is delusional. Especially where you’re using a 30 year old game for your metric.
That’s bizzare and performative. “I’m not looking forward to gta6 I have doom 1” bro fuck out of here.

u/mccannrs 3h ago
I understand the hype. But I also prefer classic Doom to GTA. Why is that hard to understand lmao
1
u/Jazzlike_Page508 3h ago
Because gta6 isnt out. And it seems like the metric people are using to sound niche and different
Using an old doom game is not the flex. I’m sorry, did you come from [r/boomershooter](r/boomershooter)?

Reddit doesn't accurately represent reality.
It might not be my most anticipated game but it definitely seems to be the rest of the worlds most anticipated game.
Dont let a bunch of weirdos ruin your hype for a game you are excited about.
