Grand Theft Auto Grieving Thread - Yep, I've been drinkin' again...

By the looks of it from the video, the dev was originally happy to see Eben promote the mod and felt betrayed when he found out that Eben was shitting all over the mod.

Well he gave evidence of the raid in the video he just uploaded. Actually there was two raids that allegedly happened.

Granted this could be some gayops shit and taken out of context to try and make himself look better, but I'll give the benefit of the doubt for the time being.

Lmao, that one guy apparently thinks busted knuckles from punching the drywall out of his room in his mother's basement out of impotent rage about "heckin' NAZIS and CHUDS and BIGOTS" is some kind of flex. Man look at those skinny ass fucking wrists, dude has the forearms of an 11 year old girl. If he actually tried to go "punch a heckin' Nazerino!!!" he'd probably just bust his brittle bird bones. Pretty much all of these faggots are like that.

Unpopular opinion, the "sandbox" aspect of GTA was never fun or interesting.

Case in point, when I would play GTA IV's online free roam, I would fool around for a few minutes, then get bored and leave. Sad to say, it's the only active game mode there. I'd much rather play the curated modes to gain some progress.

Rockstar Glassdoor review claims crunch ahead of Grand Theft Auto VI release

A recently spotted Glassdoor review, reportedly from a QA analyst at Rockstar Games, Bengaluru, India has mentioned working conditions with GTA VI development.

The review describes increased pressure over the past month, and mentions:

• Unpaid overtime expectations
• Extended working hours, with some staff reportedly working until 3AM
• Compressed timelines (tasks expected to be completed in 2–3 months instead of 5–6)
• Limited response from management when concerns are raised

The reviewer also noted that conditions had worsened recently and described the situation as taking a toll on their mental health.

Note: this comes from an anonymous Glassdoor post, it cannot be independently verified, all we have is Glassdoor’s verification so it should be taken with caution.

They apparently spent something like $3b $1.5b on GTA VI so yeah, IMO the big wigs want to get the game out ASAP and they want their money. They're probably worried the game isn't going to do as well as they hope its going to. There's two main things I can think of that threatens the success of GTA VI, which is a safe bet that it had a lot to do with why the game got delayed and why the devs are now shitting stress bricks for hours on end.

1 - First things first, we all know it, wokeism. That's just from looking at the timeline. Blue-haired they/them freak retardation was at its peak during the time period when GTA VI was half-way through full production and this was when corporate suits in all trades and industries thought gay-tranny neighbor-worship white-devil-bad crap was super popular and something all consoomers wanted so bad. You're going to have a hard time convincing me they didn't bake this shit into GTA VI's development. Top dollar bet is they noticed how unpopular this bullshit actually is, how many franchises it destroyed, they started shitting bricks and ordered a rewrite.

2 - Performance. The latest and greatest visual improvements with ray-traced shadows and reflections, with path tracing, over 9000x frame-generation to make it not a slideshow and all that other bullshit nobody even cares about requires hardware that the average Joe these days doesn't have. People simply can't afford the modern hardware to run the AAA games they release today. Simply put, the amount of people they need to buy GTA VI just to break even are overwhelmingly peasants running a 10th gen i5 and something like an RTX 3060. That's not counting the console-fags that are gaming on outdated hardware on consoles that are at the end of the generation's life-span. They probably figured that because of the RAM prices skyrocketing, making the game look and run good on older systems would be mandatory, because not that many people will be able to afford upgrading their shit to run what they intended.

Jason Schedier already confirmed that Rockstar wanted GTA VI to be “less offensive to minorities.” The E&E port of GTA V already removed “questionable content.” It’s a given that GTA VI will have less biting satire, although they put themselves in a corner if the increased density of brown skinned representation from the first trailer is anything to go by. What would they think some people would do with that given GTA’s proven criminal sandbox?
