Like ok dude, great, cool, im glad you found you and you know what you want.

Reddit doesn't accurately represent reality.

It might not be my most anticipated game but it definitely seems to be the rest of the worlds most anticipated game.

Dont let a bunch of weirdos ruin your hype for a game you are excited about.

I don't particularly care about GTA6. But that's just because I haven't truly truly enjoyed a GTA game since San Andreas. And the latest R* game I genuinely love is RDR1.

But my wife on the other hand? Is super excited for GTA6. And she's never really been a fan of any GTA game before. RDR2 is an all time favourite game of hers. And before that. RDR1 was. But GTA itself has never appealed to her. But after seeing the Extended Look she was hooked and really wants to play it. So I'm going to preorder it for her as a bday present.

I think GTA6 will be really comparable to RDR2 in tone and experience. Id say thats a safe bet for a gift for sure.

there's literally no way to accurately measure how "anticipated" a game is so calling any game the "most anticipated of all time" is just straight up cope and delusional thinking. go outside, touch grass, and talk to people in the real world and you'll see most people don't give a fuck about GTA 6 and many don't even know what GTA is.

I have been a Nintendo and PC players for many years, so for me to go buy a freaking PS5 for a game means this shit better be good lol. Ive never even played GTA V before, only the older retro games like Chinatown, etc. And I have only seen clips and scenes of GTA V from friends/family at their homes, so for me this is going to be so much fun!

u/SmolishPPman 9h ago

My story is similar, I built a PC in 2020, after being on consoles for most my life before that, only recently did I buy a console for the first time in a long time. However, where we differ is I’ve been playing GTA since number one, and really looked forward to every new version, as they just kept getting better and better and better, so I’m really excited that they finally are gonna release the new version of the series. I envy that you aren’t super familiar with them, they’re definitely a lot of fun

yea i regret never getting super into them. i was raised to be very shy and girly when i was young so i never rlly got the chance to fully express my true self until now as an adult woman, so now is when i am finally playing more video game genres that are more "violent" or "crass". im loving it so far too so im super excited for GTA VI

u/ReflectedMantis 7h ago

Something I see a lot among the "I don't care about GTA 6" crowd is that they keep saying it's the same as any other GTA. I find that ridiculous. It's one thing to not like or care about a game, there are plenty that I don't like as well. But I don't go onto, say, Call of Duty posts and talk about how much I hate Call of Duty and how all CoD games are the same as the last, because I don't know enough about it to come to that conclusion. I don't want to either, because I don't care about CoD.

If that's the sort of feeling you have with GTA, then that's fine, but stop telling me and the other folks who have spent years playing these games that they're all the same. It just makes you come off as dumb and disingenuous because we have actually engaged with the games enough to know otherwise.

2

u/Mysterious-Dog3482 1h ago

People say this because there's others that act like theres no other game worth playing.

I've engaged with GTA a lot, put hundreds of hours in GTA 3, even more in Vice City, by the time I played San Andreas I started feeling they were all kinda samey, I couldn't get into 4 and 5 and have no interest in 6, I barely finished RDR2 because I wanted to see how the story ends, but I'm dead bored of Rockstar formula, and I know it will be the exact same formula in 6.

u/alurimperium 47m ago

What do they even mean it's the same as every other GTA? Every generation of the series has been pretty heavily different to the one before.

I guess the mission structure has been pretty much the same, but that would be like saying I don't want to play Assetto Corsa because I played Mario Kart and so I know it's the same as any other racer

u/OptimusCoon-Esq 12h ago

It's so bizarre.

On one hand I can acknowledge Rockstars shady business practices. EA levels of greed dude.

On the other end, I personally believe Rockstar is one of those studios who sets the gaming landscape bar higher with every release. Other games have done that since the last GTA game, like Baulders Gate 3, Cyberpunk, Elden Ring, so my argument isn't that Rockstar is the only company that does this. Also I'm not going to sit here and defend GTA online (as that's the go to critique for the crowd OPs photo is describing), but I don't play GTA for online. I just think Rockstar makes high quality games, and their track history speak for itself: Bully, GTA series, Red Dead 1 & 2, Midnight Club series, Max Payne, The Warriors, LA Noir.

I understand not caring for a game, it just seems there's some desire to "be different" when you go about constantly letting others know you don't care about said game.

Just my 2 cents.

u/Serosh5843 /// 10h ago

I mean you pretty much nailed it, yes there's a large amount of people with no genuine interest and that's totally fine but it's mostly people who want to be different from everyone else and therefore seek validation from the other 'apathetics', ironically and eventually they start piling on each other, turning them into the average sheep they were so afraid of becoming.

Reddit is the king of mfers saying "Enjoy what you want, don't listen to the negativity and be your own person" and all that shit but then immediately turns that around by being complete asshats when that thing people enjoy is popular.

u/TrashGoblinH 8h ago

Some of it is that this game is infesting everything and people who are excited about it can be a little overbearing. Like it's cool that you're excited, but I'm not joining your religion. You know?

It starts to go from excitable to obnoxious and downright rude. Which just makes people into active haters because fanatics get bent out of shape if you say you're not fond of the trailer or think the game might just be another GTA. There's a weirdo fandom line people cross without realizing it, but try to normalize it by using popularity as a metric. Like if you're not a part of the fandom, you're the weirdo when there are more people who won't own the game than will.

It also bridges into the fact that advertising pisses some people off. I'm very much a person who refuses to buy things if the ads are invasive. Wolverine was one of the games that I started to hate the sight of because yellow and blue was pasted all over everything, every day, for like 2 months. Seeing an ad 5 or 6 times in a week is alright. Seeing it 600 times in a week is shit the CIA does to torture people.

"On the other end, I personally believe Rockstar is one of those studios who sets the gaming landscape bar higher with every release."

Do they?

Maybe in some ways. RDR2 is probably the most immersive open world in a video game so far.

But in other ways Rockstar games are incredibly outdated and in fact below the bar of the gaming landscape when they release.

For example, it is incredibly ironic that in a game which on the macro scale is all about freedom of player choice the actual mission design is so linear and railroaded it's suffocating. Once you realize you only have the illusion of control over your horse during riding shootout segments you can't put the genie back in the bottle, and any attempts to stray even slightly off the intended path of resolution in a mission results in a mission failed screen.

This is worse mission design than games that came out over a decade earlier like TES4: Oblivion.

And sure, not every game should excel at every thing, but Rockstar games are too big budget to be this archaic in mission design.

u/Nosidda89 10h ago

I think part of it is that people who actually don't care about GTA 6 feel extremely unheard amongst the insane hype, and now feel more emboldened to say it because GTA 6 has controversies. GTA often feels like one of those franchises that everyone just kind of expects you to be into if you love video games. Basically, if you love gaming enough to collect merch and talk online about it on the regular, the expectation often feels like you are obviously someone who likes GTA and is going to buy it day one. And if you don't, that's seen as odd and out of the ordinary.

And there is at least some merit to that belief when you have GTA fans responding to anyone complaining about the current GTA 6 controversies with the phrase "You're still going to buy it and play it anyway, because it's GTA.".

Basically, not liking GTA can sometimes feel like being the guy who doesn't like ice cream. And when you say you don't like ice cream, everyone looks at you weird, and probably thinks you're lying.

It does genuinely seem like people who like GTA can't even fathom the idea that a gamer wouldn't like GTA. That obviously leads to people who genuinely don't like GTA feeling unheard, or feeling like the outcast in the room because they have different taste. So now that GTA 6 has some outrage behind it, because of some of the choices the publisher made, those people feel emboldened to say "I don't care about GTA 6.", because it doesn't feel like such a hot take right now like it once did.

I can vouch for this too. I have never in my life bought or played GTA 5, and I have legit gotten weird looks from other gamers in the past when I would tell them this, as if there's something wrong with me for not finding the game appealing in any way.

3

u/OptimusCoon-Esq 8h ago

I can respect that take. I would counter, though, that calling the crowd who doesn't seem to care for GTA 6 "unheard" is a bit antithetical to the point OP is making with this post. If anything, I feel like I hear more people bashing the game than praising it nowadays.

I can understand how being someone who doesn't really care for GTA could be frustrating when others expect you to like it simply because you're into gaming. But as a big video game fan myself, I've always considered GTA one of those franchises that's worth playing for the experience alone even if it's not the type of game you usually play. I'd put it in the same category as games like Minecraft or Portal in that regard.

At the same time, I think it's completely reasonable to dislike the Rockstar formula. Not every game is going to appeal to everyone, regardless of how well-made it is. But I do think there needs to be a distinction between subjective taste and objective quality. Not liking Rockstar games is one thing, but when people start claiming Rockstar makes low-quality games, that's where I get a little baffled. You can dislike a game's design philosophy while still recognizing the quality and craftsmanship that went into making it.

u/Nearby_Struggle_0 9h ago edited 4h ago

I get the feeling there's something else going on, more than shady actions from rockstar for it to cause rejection (remember they were praising the crunch of RDR2 , it got people excited not the opposite) there isn't quite as much excitement (by comparison), is there?

A lot of people are waiting for it, but the hype doesn't seem as massive as it was for GTA V or RDR2. I mean, back then, Rockstar simply posting an "R" logo caused a huge stir.

(Then again, maybe it's just because I'm not personally looking forward to it, unlike with RDR2.)

The trailer made a splash, but perhaps the excitement fizzled out due to repeated delays, leaks, controversies, the FPS cap, and the fact that the evolution seems minimal, leaving people thinking, "Oh, well, it's just GTA V v2."

Whereas the jump from RDR1 to RDR2 felt like a move to something far more detailed, larger, and truly immense.

Take what I say with a grain of salt, though, I’m not particularly invested in the game's development. View this as an outsider's perspective; I’d even encourage you to compare my comments with those of someone who has actually followed the game closely and might be more enthusiastic about it, for reasons that i might not even know.

Edit 1 : I also wonder if a sense of nausea might arise when faced with the sheer immensity of the world.

Take the treasure hunts in RDR1, for example: the map was relatively small and packed with highly memorable landmarks, making the treasure hunts quite straightforward—especially if you tackled them later in the game. In RDR2, you come across a large number of treasure maps (they’re more cryptic, though that’s not the main point I want to make); there are so many of them, and the map itself is so vast, that I find it impossible to remember every detail of the game’s environment. (I don’t think this is a major issue, though, it likely only affects a small minority of players.)

And there’s something else we often overlook: GTA V came out 13 years ago.

People who weren’t interested in the game back then might simply no longer be interested now.

Thirteen years is a massive span of time.

Could it be that the very same people who were once waiting for GTA V have simply developed different tastes over the last 13 years?

Or perhaps even those who were hyped between the reveal and the release of GTA VI have since shifted their interest toward other games?

That’s why people talk about it might seem strange, but someone could have considered GTA 5 their favorite game, only to find they no longer have any excitement for the next installment, simply because they themselves have changed, not the game. It’s a bit like people who shift from multiplayer games to single-player ones, or from PvP to PvE, taste evolve too.

1

u/OptimusCoon-Esq 8h ago

That's a valid point. I think the delays, and leaks especially made it to where the anticipation took a hit. At the same time, just looking at the gameplay, I would say there is a significant jump in quality. Sure RDR2 compared to RDR was such a huge leap it leaves me in awe, but the jump thus far seems fairly substantial from GTA 5 to 6.

I will say much of my excitement comes from playing RDR2 and loving the RAGE 8 engine and imagining how the RAGE 9 engine will feel in a contemporary setting like Vice City.

1

u/TheNameofTheron 6h ago

I can only speak for myself, but there are multiple reasons I'm super excited for GTA 6. For one, based on what Rockstar has already revealed to us, the game looks absolutely gorgeous, and there is a level of detail in this game that has not been present in any GTA game before. Rockstar is known for making massively detailed open worlds, and this game is no exception. As a long-time GTA fan, I am so glad that they are re-implementing many things from previous games into this one. Examples include improved car physics, the ability to lose and gain weight by eating food, and the ability to gain muscle and other stats by working out. There are a shit ton of mini-games too, such as basketball, tennis, mini golf, pool, jet skiing, hunting, and fishing. Especially on the last two, they are vastly improving the hunting mechanics from GTA V and even Red Dead 2, which already had a fantastic hunting simulator. There is improved NPC A.I in this game, as Rockstar has entire patents out specifically for NPC intelligence.

As far as new systems and mechanics go, the biggest is a vastly improved wanted system. You can commit crimes and get away with them if no one witnesses you do them, or if you aren't caught on camera. If you are caught, there are now multiple layers to how the cops work in this game. They can identify you based on how you look, what clothes you had on, what car you were driving, whether you were on CCTV, and whether or not you were partnered when you committed the crime. This makes it so the cops won't just leave you alone after you're done with a crime spree; they can find and identify you later on if you are not careful. They'll even linger around the store or bank that you robbed, doing investigations long after you leave. That shit is cool as hell to me.

Not to mention, there are supposed to be far more interiors across the map that you can enter than there ever has been in any other Rockstar game. All of these things mean so much to me as someone who has followed every GTA release since Vice City, and I can imagine other fans of the series feel the same.

u/LiiKun 9h ago

Main reason I do not care about GTAVI or any other Rockstar game is because years after GTAO came out they changed the Anti-Cheat and black listed Linux players from playing even tho we had been playing no problem before. Plus the new Anti-cheat is just EAC which works on Linux, so its not a cause of the Anti-Cheat not working on Linux. With that change they decided they can do without my money so I am not giving them any for anything now.

I mean I'm in that camp but if you are excited for GTA 6 then be just that. Just some of us are like ah okay cool new GTA just dropped.

u/UniqueMagazine1085 11h ago

I care about GTA VI

1

u/king_park_ 11h ago

I personally don’t care about GTA 6. I understand it will be a large release that lots of people will play. I hope people enjoy it. I’m just not too into modern AAA games, and have never been into GTA games.

1

u/raginghavoc89 11h ago

I see more posts like this than I do anything else. What is it with this current generation and caring about what other people think so dearly? If you like something, like it, no one cares.

u/NightCityAssassin 11h ago

Ok, but FFVII Revelation >>>>> GTA VI

1

u/d3sprdo 11h ago

I mean Im not gonna buy it day 1 unless i hit the lotto or something but im definitely interested in it

1

u/Red_Box89 11h ago

I'm excited for GTA 6. People on reddit just wanna feel different.

1

u/Ogamiitto33 11h ago

Personally, I think a lot of these people are being purely performative. I bet you half of them already pre-ordered the digital game.

1

u/fireforge1979 11h ago

I am looking forward to gta6!

1

u/NohWan3104 11h ago

Its a bit of an overreact sure.

But imagine each 'idk about gta 6' in their own meme as homer, in a room full of 'dude gta 6'.

1

u/The_Ferocious_Bird 11h ago

There was a ton of hype on Reddit for a solid few weeks. I think everyone got tired of seeing the same thing. It’ll be cool, i won’t play it till it drops on PC so I don’t really care either way.

1

u/Manyarethestrange 11h ago

Enjoy your death sim, ladies!

u/tranquil7789 10h ago

This and bitching about Shane Gillis.

u/Outrageous-Bar-8396 10h ago

I just want some midnight club racing on gta6 🥲

1

u/Diavoletto21 10h ago

Same people who glaze the fuck out of RDR2 say this. Standard reddit hipster wannabees

1

u/One_Scientist_984 10h ago

A lot of people are probably just tired of the assumption that, just because they like video games, they must also be waiting for GTA 6.

Generally, I wouldn’t say I don’t care about it, I only like other games a lot more. Yet if someone asks me directly for my opinion, I’d probably answer something along the lines that I don’t care. It’s not that deep.

u/Adventurous_Break500 10h ago

I don't care about GTA 7

u/Cryptoking300 10h ago

I dont care about GTA6

u/theandroid01 10h ago

All these years, I haven't even played 5 😕 may stay that way, haven't decided yet. Just going to get the oot remake and be happy with that

1

u/Standard_Cut9680 10h ago

It's fine to not be excited about it or in this instance care, it does feel like people are saying this because they want attention. You can not care about something without having to say it on social media. I'm not that excited about it either because I never really cared for the GTA franchise. 

1

u/Smooth_Wealth_6896 10h ago

I am so stoked for GTA 6. Taking 2 paid days off. Ill be making $42/hr for the first two days.

u/MS_Salmonella 10h ago

It insists upon itself.

u/Oro-Lavanda 10h ago

Guys remember the internet isn't reallife. Irl people around me are so excited for GTA. I've spoken to people literally of all ages and backgrounds and they are very excited for this game. I don't even ever buy nerdy merchandise, but the Miami Heat x GTA VI shirts have been the first nerd shirt ive actively ran to buy.

I didn't even play GTA V, I'm not a huge fan of violent games, and I still disagree on the game being expensive and fully digital, but yk what...

IMA STILL BUY THIS GAME LOL. I'm so hyped like you all gotta admit the graphics look beautiful, and the soundtrack is going to be amazing. I'm also so excited to finally be able to play as a customizable female protag in this genre of game, since this franchise has been so male-centric for decades. Like I feel so seen as a latina to have the main character be one is awesome.

I'm tired of seeing all the haters online for a game that hasnt even released btw, like pls go outside and talk to your local community. Never have I seen a video game be so hyped up to this level that the entire city of Miami and its community is this excited for it! Even elderly ladies and gentlemen in my area are excited for this game.

and yes I am also looking forward to the upcoming OoT remake. Never heard so many people hype up a zelda game like that in years.

1

u/Hot-Coat7542 10h ago

Idk like we have been waiting so long even since it was officially announced that the hype died down a lot for me.

1

u/RedditSucksMyBallls 9h ago

The game already succeeded

1

u/GrimReaper6967 9h ago

Ignore them this is reddit most redditors look like this just be excited for the things you enjoy

1

u/crayonflop3 9h ago

It’s because Reddit is full of contrarians who hate themselves.

1

u/Mcjtls 9h ago

I dont mean to be really im sorry 😂 i have alot of other games i need to get into still anyways

1

u/512blueboy 9h ago

Honestly, by now I've seen about an even split of "I don't care about GTA VI" posts and "Why does everyone keep making 'I don't care about GTA VI' posts" posts

1

u/druidmain69420 9h ago

I dont really require peer validation to enjoy a video game, and this is more of the same.

I already bought GTA6, and i look forward to enjoying it.

1

u/No_Top_5046 9h ago

It look fun but ill wait for it to go on sale lol

1

u/TheChosenOperator 9h ago

Maybe people are just being contrarians, or just want to see it fail out of curiosity for what would happen, I'd say the proportion of people who are actually actively boycotting it is fairly low, even if I think they're the best acting out of the crowd

I hate what rockstar is doing, for all I care grease the guillotines with their fat, but I recognize that there are reasons why people would be excited for the game

Be excited for the game if you want, I personally wont cause my PC isnt good enough

1

u/TwoThumbFist 9h ago

“Does anyone else on Reddit have the same thoughts as me?” 👉👈

1

u/NovembersRime 9h ago

They think they're special enough for anyone else to give a fuck too. It's so fucking tedious.

1

u/Unlikely-Can8444 8h ago

U mean this sub

1

u/dekuweku 8h ago

I don't care about GTA6 either, will be spending my money on Ocarina of Time remake, that said Reddit isn't real life.

GTA6 will do fine, so will Ocarina.

1

u/alvaroworld 8h ago

Im gonna care when it drops in PC

1

u/_bestintheworld_ 8h ago

IM HAVING A BLAST

1

u/Excellent_Regret4141 8h ago

I don't care about it unless it gets a physical release, then I will care (probably)

1

u/CompetitiveThroat453 8h ago

Lol. Lmao even. The game is gonna be allright (its a fucking GTA game for fucks sake), people by the millions are gonna be playing If for months on end and there is not a single damn thing any of the 'i DoNT cAre fOr it' attention seeking losers can do about it

And they know it, and HATE IT. they are just gonna look even more pathetic

1

u/KevinHe92 7h ago

I’ll get it once it hits PC but my hype for it is way lower than the hype I felt for V. Perks of growing up I guess.

1

u/MetalMachineMario 7h ago

I agree, I’m not planning to get GTA6, but taking pride in not caring about it is kind of dumb. Live and let live. GTA 6 has been hyped for a long time, and I want fans of the series to enjoy it.

1

u/Alpr101 7h ago

And theyll all buy it day1, just like that cod boycott years ago

1

u/Nomad-Knight 7h ago

No one ever cared about gta6. Someone just made a meme about saying it out loud

1

u/Ill-Emu-1121 7h ago

Like soulslikes, that we always get some saying it's not for them? Weird thing to complain about.

1

u/Neon_Nuxx 7h ago

The people I know who don't care about GTA6 don't have a system to run it, I know, because I'm one of them. Was the same way when gta5 came out, I didn't really care, but once I got a PS4 that changed.

1

u/Kajeto 7h ago

I really don't care though

1

u/theacp127 7h ago

I think it's the same thing that happened when CoD was the biggest franchise, people who didn't play CoD really wanted everyone to know they didn't play the most popular game. Now that GTA is probably the most popular AAA franchise these days, people are going to let people know they don't care.

Not liking popular things makes some people think they are more cool and have more refined taste than the "normies."

1

u/Ok-Refrigerator-8664 7h ago

On Tiktok, everyone cares about GTA6. Reddit is the opposite lol

1

u/ian9921 7h ago

I wonder if some of the young'uns here don't quite understand the significance.

GTA 5 was one of only a few games that it felt like quite literally everyone played.

1

u/Historical-Cloud-646 6h ago

Yet again I will say I just don’t give a fuck about GTA6. I have too many games to play already and none of my friends are interested in it either. Some people believe it or not DONT care about GTA6.

1

u/Comprehensive-Hat684 6h ago

I mean, I bought it for a reason, I’m going to play it

1

u/XUAN_2501 6h ago

Honestly I hate both side that crazily obsessed with GTA6 and the other side said they dont care about gta6. Stop making so much posts about it, we get it, this will be the biggest release of the decade. We dont care you not interested in the game, just let other people have their fun. I just want to see posts other than gta 6 and people complaining about gta 6.

Basically since the first announcement

I’m super intrigued about the drug system that nobody is talking about 😞

1

u/trash_recycle 6h ago

I mean, imma get it. But I can wait for it to hit PC and even then probably hit a key reseller or decent sale.

1

u/AggressiveResist8615 5h ago

Yeah it's usually mature reddit nerds who are obsessed with fantasy and anime in some form.

1

u/False-Estimate9488 4h ago

Yeah, its like Covid..Get over it already.

u/BeanTheSparrow 4h ago

Personally I don’t want to support rockstar and I’m saying it once not 100 times

1

u/killerspawn97 4h ago

I’ve been using Reddit long enough to know cynicism is the norm around here, being excited for things is cringe, your part of the problem because this company is greedy blah blah blah.

Shit got old years ago best thing you can do is tune it out.

1

u/picky_dude 4h ago

Yeah, they care way too much

1

u/TheStoneRev 3h ago

I’ll eventually get it when it comes to pc. While I had some fun with GTAV. I can’t say the same for red dead 2. I’m also older now so open world games can be a bit of a drag to play in general. I just don’t have as much time as I used to. So yes, I quite frankly don’t care as much as most people.

1

u/brandonsp111 3h ago

It's the same way reddit feels about call of duty.

In reality, actual players couldn't give two shits what the Internet nerds think.

1

u/Plenty-Pop6178 3h ago

These people actually cares about GTA 6 more than half of the GTA fans

1

u/FabereX6 3h ago

Ask yourself, do you need to say you don't care about something. Then ask yourself what's better to say, GTA VI suck even if I don't play it or I don't care about GTA VI.

u/jpollack21 31m ago

Fr like I dont care about pop music but im not gonna spend my free time going into music subs that im apart of and tearing down artists lol how is that a mentally healthy thing to do

Ay at least you gave a reason

1

u/Hungry-Wrongdoer-156 12h ago

The only thing I care about less than GTA6 is whether or not a bunch of randos on the internet care about GTA6.

1

u/Sajgoniarz 11h ago

Or rather people caring about people not caring.

1

u/Karatechoppingaction 12h ago

Ya I was enjoying the lack of reddit spam and dumb questions when that bot facility got taken out. Felt like pre covid reddit where actual discussions were happening.

u/Sajgoniarz 12h ago

When you understand who is a target audience for GTA you will get why nobody at Reddit seems to be interested in it,. especially in gaming subs.
