While Take-Two is riding high on their announcement that a GTA 6 trailer is coming, its CEO has some…interesting ideas on how much video games could cost, part of a contingent of executives that believe games are underpriced, given their cost, length or some combination of the two.

I'd be shocked if GTA6 has an offline/solo mode, with how much they've milked GTA5 Online for.

The fuck over SP got is the biggest crime after the cucking we got over Anthem.

Which is why no one should buy GTA6.

but of course you know the mindless hordes of ignorant little goblins out there will not only buy it, they will preorder the mega super luxury ultra elite edition at that, making the game have a launch day sales record twice that of what GTA5 was in its entire first week.

Thus proving to TakeTwo, Rockstar, and every other company that it doesnt matter how shitty, or how exploitative that they are.. because gamers are fucking morons and will dumptruck money to their doorstep, and not even major fuckups like cyberpunk and starfield can prevent it.

I liked Starfield and I still logged a shit ton of hours on it.

But it's story, dialogue, and character interactions feel that bad combination of rushed and PG13 in a setting that should be R. The fact that they will likely never rewrite and re-record these quests kinda blows. And the looting took a step backwards with the lack of clothing pieces and non-unique clothing stats.

I'm excited for what the modding community does to the game, which is the major reason I bought it. I've got over 3000 hours on skyrim, less than 200 of that is vanilla gameplay ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
