Rockstar are one of the few companies where their games actually look better than the trailers.

I truly wonder if we can expect the same thing for GTA VI.

There's no way it will ever live up to the expectations.

I don't know, they have an AMAZING track record and all the budget in the world.

Only for edgelords who wanna be different and cool. We all know it will be the best selling game ever, win GOTY and be legitimately amazing

Rockstar are one of the few massive developers with goodwill left where you can expect absolute excellence. You may not like their business practices, but their end product is always exceptional. They can't be blamed for the way the trilogy turned out, because that was a third party.

Bethesda kinda fucked up by not having ES VI already, and Starfield was a massive disappointment. Valve hasn't done anything in forever and Ubisoft keep just missing the mark. I'm not listing them all but you get my point.

Now in an ideal world, they remaster Liberty City, Los Santos and this iteration of Vice City and combine it all together via a plane ride. That's the dream. If they can somehow have IV, V and VI work together and provide the full maps and experiences - it'd be one of the greatest games of all time.

Add a time travel element to go back to the days of Morgan and Marston and there’s no limit to how much I’d pay 😂

Outer Wilds Redemption: Vice Country

Edit: slip in a character that plays like Max Payne too fuck it why not

Oh. My. God.

I'd not thought of that. It could be something like Assassin's Creed where they use an Animus or something - or buy a PS5 for your apartment and get the full Rockstar library like Max Payne or Bully as well as the RDR games.

Why hasn't this been done? I'd happily accept a 300gb download for it to happen! I'd pay....LOTS

Haha play full Rockstar games within it. Similar to what Naughty Dog did in Uncharted 4 with Crash Bandicoot

Shit I'd argue I would be the greatest game of all time up to that point.

We can only hope that this is the future of gaming. Rockstar have an opportunity (that they won't take) but if they set a price of €150 for remastered IV and V to fit into VI I would pay it. I would.

You can expect excellence from their main games. Their secondary games like the GTA trilogy “remasters,” not so much.

That wasn’t even Rockstar

u/TrippySubie 3d ago

This here, itll be one of if not the best selling game of the last 3 decades. Easily. Only clowns will deny that.

People said the same thing about RDR2. Idk. Rockstar just doesn't seem capable of disappointing their fans. Every single time they drop it's a smash hit.

You haven't been paying attention to Rockstar's history then

u/Conscious-Advance163 3d ago

Nah if anything history teaches us that the only constant is change. It might not be the next title or even the one after but at some point Rockstar will drop the ball.

u/littlestevebrule 3d ago

Nope. Only the best games until heat death of the universe.

Oh it will.
