GTA VI hype collides with delays, leaks, and pricing anxiety
5/10 Mixed views

The post provides some relevant information about the upcoming trailer but lacks detail and context that would engage the community more fully.

› mixed › heated › consensus
release date trailer Vice City pre-orders pricing microtransactions

The thread opens with anticipation and skepticism in equal measure, as participants react to the long gap since the last game, the first trailer, and Rockstar’s reputation for squeezing a franchise. Several posters praise the visuals and world-building, but many immediately question whether the gameplay, structure, and character switching will feel fresh enough to justify the wait.12

Mid-thread discussion turns sharper around repeated delay reporting, leaked details, and speculation about what Rockstar is really planning. Posters debate everything from age verification and map expansion to weapon limits and whether the publisher is protecting shareholder value more than players. The mood is increasingly defined by frustration over timing, monetization, and the possibility of further postponements.34

Later posts become more concrete as official information arrives: the release date, pre-orders, editions, platform details, trailer 2, and a longer reveal. That shifts the thread toward shared admiration for the game’s scale and presentation, while concerns remain about price, online features, and whether the final experience will match the hype. By the end, the group largely agrees the game looks impressive, even if trust in Rockstar is still fragile.56

"I think they need to shake up the gameplay mechanics tbh."

"I reckon it will cost about $100, so what's that, £70/80 in the UK?"

Verdict

The thread reaches broad agreement that GTA VI looks ambitious and technically impressive, but confidence in Rockstar remains mixed because of delays and monetization concerns. Nothing is fully settled beyond the release details; excitement is high, yet skepticism about price, polish, and post-launch plans persists.

    Vice City, USA.

    Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them.

I voted No in the poll "Will Grand Theft Auto VI be a day one purchase?".

I've not pre-ordered it, I don't think it will be a day one purchase but I might buy it within thee first couple of weeks depending in how well it is received.

I voted No in the poll "Will Grand Theft Auto VI be a day one purchase?".

Didn't play GTA V but I wasn't a fan of GTA I due to it being so clunky physics-wise and maybe too realistic compared to the GTA III generation of games, not to mention a bit of repetition in the variety of missions from memory and the annoying as feck social aspect of that (Niko cousin, let's go bowling!). In hindsight, it feels like that Gabe Newell quote when he talked about Half-Life 1, where realism doesn't equate to fun and realism can be boring.

I honestly had more fun playing Saints Row 2 than GTA IV back then, so I'll wait to see what the reviews say about GTA VI and pick it up somewhere down the line.
