GTA VI Delayed Again?

[Doomsday519]

Not shocking and especially not shocking after news of Rockstar "allegedly" union busting. There was news of the union busting and firings with employees anonymously addressing things online then next thing you know the news is drowned out by the delay. Very convenient. tbh I'm not hyped about the game like most "normal" people are cuz every move they make now feels insidious. I feel like a lot of the delays don't have as much to do with the quality of the product but their desire to maximize profits. Rockstar has the money and the resources. Sure GTA VI will be massive but that company can handle it. What I believe is that a lot of the delay has to do with maximizing profits on the "Online" front. The new version of GTA Online is going to be wicked work. Most likely we will never see story DLC in VI and a lot of the effort has shifted to Online like the original GTA Online. Shoot, they pulled the plug on Red Dead Online's further development for VI and I wouldn't be surprised if those teams went straight to work on helping implement the online aspect.

Folks wanna bring up Cyberpunk 2077 and the mess CD Projekt RED made and eventually cleaned up but I don't believe the comparison is valid at all. I don't think the situation is the same at all. Matter of fact, I hold that game in higher regard than GTA V

But that's my thoughts on it. Again, I think its Rockstar trying to maximize profits while in the meanwhile ghouls keep pouring money into the current GTA Online. I could be wrong but I don't trust them when they say this is mostly about the quality of the product.

First of all, fuck Rockstar for the way it treats its employees.

Anyway, at this rate we'll get a new Mega Man game before GTA 6.

I'm not too fussed about the delay, like you said it's not surprising, especially given the scope, detail & sheer polish this will have, i want to experience this event game with all the potential bells and whistles, this moment occurs once in a blue moon after all & in a current age of questionable releases especially this generation, even more so. Big deal moment for me come next November.
Gonna go watch Trailer 2 again, been a hot minute.

DeAgain, what a shame I don't have a PS5, we'll have to wait until 2050.
