Anyone here play video games?

RDR2 was probably the first time a Rockstar game had a lot of likeable characters. I hope it was a sign of a more permanent shift and not just something they had to do because they wanted players to feel sad about the gang collapsing.

Looks great. Looking forward to Digital Foundry’s tech breakdown of what was shown.

Looking absolutely amazing, no way Rockstar could even botch this if they tried. Some of the details are insane. An Aussie streamer spent 2.5 hours with Rockstar a few months back watching game play with a lead dev. Said at one point Jason was eating an apple in a safe house apartment and when he finished it, he held onto the apple core and then chucked it into the bin. What the fuck haha, so unnecessary and yet it's in the game
Soundtrack slaps too. The vibrancy of the world, NPC's, just wow. We also got a sneak look at some of the classic Rockstar satire (with the tv ads).
Oh yeah and @AdamJ, if you see this, I've submitted a three month annual leave request from November 19th. Thanks mate.

@Nick yeah that was the first thing i noticed in almost every shot: its a living environment. The first time I experienced this was RDR2, and this has that 10 fold. Every place is so dense with ambient activity, it really steps up the immersion. It really looks like they carried over a TON of elements from RDR2 to spectacular effect. I'm kinda blown away already

@Nick very true. i think the ceo made a good point in an interview that anybody could do it. They just don't. I guess the point was that its a high risk - high reward thing. Its kinda like what i appreciate about a Hideo Kojima game. I'm here for it too though. It takes a certain level of crazy to go all-in on something that requires so much effort, capital, etc. then also a certain amount of luck to pull it off. Idk if i'd want every iteration of a game to be 15 years in between though...
And the current gens tech, is starting to look really impressive. When PS5 launched, i thought it was a marginal incremental boost over PS4, but this game looks almost like a new platform. It does always seem to take till about the end of a cycle till they really push it though.

@WhiskeySandwich the original was totally responsible for teaching me driving mechanics. GOURANGA!!

I was neutral on GTA 6 up to this point, but after this preview I'm fully hyped. Might even get a console instead of waiting for PC version.
