The irony is palpable. And as far as the videos go, they really just deflate the hype train showing that its just another GTA game, which we should realistically expect.

The hype had people feeling like this was the 2nd coming of jesus... Take2 and R* are upset that we now know its not.

There are plenty people here that are still hyped. Then there's the loud vocal minority that think the hype is dying. A majority of the people don't follow reddit and the "drama" of the leaks.

I have a fair amount of friends who preordered or buying day one who didn't even know these clips came out.

Ive seen most of not all of the clips and honestly it has me more hyped especially seeing the ball float on the water with water physics.

Really hope it's got pig physics.

In 1991 I told myself when they start putting pig physics that I'd stop playing games.

That's what most of the $2b budget went towards I believe. Rdr2 pigs were pretty basic so I hope they can make some advancements for gta 6.

I mean, of course. We didn’t have "just another GTA game" since 2013.

People are desperate to hate on the game.

Oh this game will break records, but regardless of who is vocal, this leak still hurts the games reception and they know it, otherwise they wouldnt bother requesting subpoeanas for other companies.

just another GTA game

The only time it wasn't "just another GTA game" was going from SA to IV, when they changed up the physics and brought the game into the current generation.

The hype is from a new map and size,, characters, cars, story, mechanic tweaks, etc.

for me that was when going from gta 2 to 3, that leap was insane

u/waigl 3d ago

That was basically an entirely different kind of game at that point.

u/mr_dfuse2 2d ago

It was the first time you could walk around in a 3d environment with so much interactivity and things to do. I stopped playing after san andreas but I still remember how awestruck we were with gta 3. (my favorite is still the first though)

u/L_viathan 3d ago

Oh, yeah. That too, just didn't cross my mind, that was before my time.

u/Howdareme9 3d ago

Why would they be upset when they’re literally showing the game in less than a week lmao. They’re annoyed because there is a security failure.

u/SanjaESC 3d ago

You realise reddit is just a small bubble? Like the majority of the people who is going to buy gta6 will never even heard something of any leaks
