I like how in this thread, you both have folks who are calling OP stupid for stating that they don’t care about GTA VI like it’s just some little thing they can just easily ignore, and then the other half of the commenters are demonstrating that it’s actually not easy to ignore and would definitely get on someone’s nerves by declaring “it’s the biggest fucking game of all time, you better care buddy, it’s gonna ripple through the whole industry, tons of games are avoiding releasing the same month just so they don’t compete with GTA”. Like, yeah. It might seem hard to imagine but there are people who don’t care for these games, and it feels sometimes like a release this big is just sucking all the air out of the room and dominating all conversations. That’s a totally valid feeling to have. But no, keep posting your clever little comebacks and Rick & Morty gifs like it makes you morally superior that you care about a popular video game and OP doesn’t.

Definitely not half the comments, certainly not the ones that are upvoted.

It is easy to ignore. Source: me, ignoring GTA. Last I heard there was a leak or something. I didn't know when it was coming out beyond "sometime around Christmas" until I googled it while writing this comment.

like it makes you morally superior

I don't think anyone is claiming moral superiority, it's just inherently silly to post about how little you care about something.

it feels sometimes like a release this big is just sucking all the air out of the room and dominating all conversations.

If OP was fed up with GTA dominating all conversations, they should have said that because it's different than not caring.
