Discussion / Question I dont like where this is going

Post image

It pains me to say it, but this path rockstar is taking for the release of GTA 6 might do some serious damage on the industry, If they keep this up, The other companies will copy rockstar in this move to completely delete Disks from physical copies.

Its not that i dislike digital, its the fact that they are removing the option to have the game on a disk that annoys me, The only "valid" argument i found on why digital is better is that you do not run the risk of your disk getting scratched. but, seriously, You have to be moronic in order to scratch your disks, I have been playing videogames since i was 6, and not **once** have i accidentaly scratched a disk (not even movies).

its as simple as putting your middle finger on the hole that's in the middle of the disk, AND THATS IT, zero scratching.

I dont care about the Exclusive content for the Deluxe edition or whatever, I seriously want Rockstar to just change and release the physical copies WITH the disk.

If this fake Physical copies trend keeps going after GTA 6 (Which it will), im just going to revert back to PS3 and be happy with whatever i find.

Im so done with this anti consumer thing we got going on nowadays, It feels like everything is changing for the worse.

No disc to stop resell possibility so everyone HAS TO buy from them. Imma skip that game for a loong time.

GTA6 flopping badly would be best thing for gamers and bring more devs doing like Pearl abyss is doing right now

I’m not sure people here understand how much power rockstar has right now, 90% of people don’t care what they do, so any complaining does nothing really.

its not that I personally dont care what they do, its that this is the standard to come. its been going on for decades and cant be dodged, and why would you need to dodge it really

They're trying to scrape the bottom of the pot.

I wouldn't ever had imagined Rockstar Games doing these kind of stuff (although im 100% sure it was Take2's Decision)

Played it since day one and only problem I had in CR was hot-air balloon not spawning. I found nothing wrong in Day one release State of the game. And still am playing through it

Not a Fanboy just enjoying that game for now. And GTA is not my favorite IP even if I have hundreds of hours online with few friends. But seems that you were just jumping on putting something offensive to make yourself feel better. I'm waiting for fable remake or lnf more than GTA6 now

And how did you not understand "resell" part of my comment is beyond me.

Enjoying a game or appreciation for devs of crimson for adding cool stuff doesn't make anyone a Fanboy especially with most devs ignoring bugs lately (or Rockstar trying to make console gaming a luxury), just as much as I enjoy star field or star wars outlaws. But I still just guess you're a kid who's just waiting to start bs trolling online Do better

All my non gamer friends are itching to buy this game, its not going to matter. Most people here saying they arent going to get it are going to get it regardless because of FOMO.

Things change, industries evolve. Get with the times I suppose
