May as well start a dedicated thread. Trailer landing on December 5 - 2pm in the UK.

Will update the thread details when they arrive...

There will be some hype around this game's release whenever that is. But Rockstar has earned the right to exploit it...GTA and RDR are wonderful games.

And they sure know how to exploit.

I'm surprised there's so much hype about the announcement of a trailer given the gameplay leaks and the sheer length of time they've spent milking GTA V dry before releasing this.

That said, I'll still definitely play it as soon as it's released

I just can't get excited for this. Rockstar have burned any faith I had in them when their lack of single player dlc, zero effort releases and intent on milking online. But at the same time I'm sure they can do something special, but society is very different now so I wonder how they'll present everything.

 

[Black Sheep]

My prediction is they'll just show the usual jump cuts of the city with some people walking and cars driving to some song and people will say it's the most amazing game ever.

Don't forget the frame-by-frame analysis videos showing every little detail and Easter egg!

I am both excited and curious to see what this trailer shows.

Everyone knows it will look better - but V still looks good right now.

Everyone also knows the type of missions etc that these games have.

So what is going to be the surprise or the hook?

My feeling is that the game is nearer release than many people think.

Yeah I think it might be closer too. Maybe late 2024 release.

I'm kinda hoping they bring back some older elements whilst improving the actual gameplay loop. I really liked that you could bulk-up/get fat in San Andreas. It meant there was such a variety in how everyone's characters looked. Keep the hair growth things from RDR2 as well. It felt quite satisfying having to grow it out if you wanted it long and it actually felt like a decision to cut it short eventually.

Also just allow more freedom in missions. Not so on rails please.

I think they need to shake up the gameplay mechanics tbh. As great as both GTA V and RDR2 were, the gameplay mechanics were beginning to show their age with how formulaic and rigid they were. It seems Rockstar has stuck to the same script in all their missions for years now - drive/ride to point A, kill/steal person/item X, run away or go to point B. Detract away from the script and it's an immediate mission fail.

I want to see them offer a bit more creativity and open-ended approaches to the objectives, and perhaps some impactful choices. I don't want or expect it to be a fully-fledged RPG necessarily but I feel like some creative freedom would be very welcome.
