For a decade, Nvidia has been focused on foolish nonsense like fake AI-generated frames or path tracing that nobody asked for, meanwhile Rockstar has their eye on the ball(s)

Rockstar had already nuked the link I saw the leaked videos at earlier, but I found this:

NSFW

No idea if it's going to be there in an hour or two. The relevant video is predictably the one called Nudist Town.

Content warning, somewhat sexually tinged violence

spoilerThe player goes around a nudist colony creepily looking at the people there with binoculars. An angered female NPC confronts him so he kills her and starts an impromptu mass shooting.

Looking at reactions, it looks like many people were genuinely put off by how realistic the scenario looked (wonky floating NPC physics not withstanding). I guess it hits different when livestreamed shootings are a common occurrence. Can't wait to see the Discourse and Content that this game will generate. Jack Thompson would have exploded if he had seen this clip in the 2000s

    Holy shit that's tasteless. It makes no Russian look downright tame.

    It's not even satire or anything, is this meant to be a mission?

    I think it's just a location in the game you can visit, like a saloon in Red Dead Redemption. There probably is a mission that takes place there at some point but this just looks like free roam to me.

    If that's the case that's pretty impressive NPC interaction.

    It was already pretty great in RDR2, seems like this is continuing in the same trajectory. Looks like the videos were already deleted but I recall seeing RDR2's contextual NPC interactions in some of them

    If this game is just modern day RDR2 instead of GTAVI I would be very happy, lol
