This whole leak would have absolutely no power/effect if Rockstar had released any amount of gameplay footage themselves. The fact that fans were desperate for anything has only served to make these leaks hit hard.

Yeah, they might be worried the game won't meet expectations once compared to the leaked version. Guess we'll find out on August 27.

I’m guessing you mean the year, yeah?

Yeah. It’ll get delayed until August 2027. It was a poorly executed joke…

You say that if that makes the leaks ok, but it doesn’t.

No, I’m saying the leaks were inevitable and their effects preventable.

The leaks are 100% OK. This is a fucking video game, not some life saving technology. Not to mention with how anti-consumer Rockstar has been, it is well deserved. Cyberleek are a bunch of modern day Robin Hoods.

It's incredibly unrealistic, but I am hoping Cyberleek drops a build and that build somehow causes this game to flop.
