I gave up on anything Rockstar related when they got into the business of union busting.

I'd be more hyped if they hadn't just drip fed stuff for months.

Just fucking release. There is no need to build hype, all of their prior games have been hits and speak for themselves. Release, and on all consoles and PC, and then shut up and rake in the cash.

I wouldn't even pirate it, let alone play it.

You're on Lemmy, this isn't unpopular here. Hell go look at the Top of Gaming over the last 6 months and you'll see everyone is just dogpiling on it. Lemmy's full of hipsters in their own way. Way too cool for anything that might be mainstream.

God help you if you are excited for GTA 6 on Lemmy.

I've tried to like Rockstar games, but they're just not my thing. I don't like how on-rails their games become when you're on a mission. And their control schemes consistently trip me up.

Not sure how unpopular this actually is, but I won't be buying it either. Rockstar can lick my nuts.

As soon as Rock$tar started to double and then triple dip on GTA5 sales across next gen and PC... I vowed to never buy another game from them. And never even considered playing online.

I'll pirate GTA6 at some point once it inevitably comes to PC just because it means denying them the sale. But until then, don't care or think I'm missing anything worthwhile.

Totally agree. Seems like it’ll just be the “play it until you get bored and obey traffic signs” GTA standard.

I love watching all the nerds freak the fuck out when a new hyped up game doesn't live up to 110% of their expectations.

And even if it's the best game that's ever gamed! Okay. I'll buy it in 3 or 4 years when it's on sale for $20. I'm sure it's fun, but I really doubt it's going to be life changing.

I think you're massively overestimating the number of people who have any interest in the game if you think this is hugely unpopular.

Yeah I am really sick of the hype for this. I actually bought GTA5 a few months back (thrift store find for $5) and still haven’t played it.

I spent countless hours on GTA3 and a little on Vice City. I never once played the actual storylines of those games. I just learned cheats in order to drive around and cause mayhem. GTA3, for me, remains the best because the graphics are fake enough that everything is comical. The more realistic it got the more messed up some of it felt.

GTA6’s graphics do look nice. And as a former Floridian in curious to explore this iteration of Vice City. But I ain’t paying $100 for a download in order to do so.

You made this post, so you clearly do care.

I'm not hyped for it, but I'll probably pick it up on a Steam sale some day after it's PC port.

Not a big fan of rockstar games. Too linear on the story parts, usually. The rest of it is okay I guess.

Same, never got to play gta5 iself so yeah no reason to be excited

I would have been excited about GTA 6 had it come out well over 5 years ago and if Rockstar hadn't gone from awesome gaming company to another corporate money cow

I don't even care if anyone cares about GTA6.

I lost interest in the GTA franchise when they stopped supporting modding. The core games themselves have been engaging enough, but my favourite part was always replacing the cars and driving around in cars I'll never get to own.

Fans will shut you off, but I feel the same, we can't be alone.

I got open world fatigue.

It's coming way too late for me to care. RDR2 came out in 2018 and even that was too long after GTA5.

I wouldn't say this is unpopular, I think most people don't care about GTA 6. They just keep it to themselves cuz they actually don't care about GTA 6. Unlike some...

There's no more innovation in the series.

I'll probably get around to it eventually but, in the meantime, I'm going reinstall San Andreas and 4.

I'm eternally fascinated by people who are vocal about what they don't care about.

Building an identity on what you don't consume is still consumer culture, only with a dash of contrarianism.
