People have already gotten offended by the female protagonist when it got leaked a few months prior. Anything that isn't a cisgender straight white able-bodied male is considered "too woke" for them.

Considering GTA's historical treatment of women in their older games, I'll still hold my breath to see how the characters are written. Although gamers seething is always nice, I'm always pessimistic with the AAA games industry.
I've really wondered what 6 will look like given how abhorrent female representation is in these games. It'll likely still have its cringey moments, but the trailer looks pretty encouraging.
According to polls over here, far right parties are most popular among the gamer crowd. I'm sure they will take this in a good way.
The main character is a woman rockstar became woke 😲
I just can't play as a female man 😞 nowhere is safe these days as a white gamer
self-awareness level 0
the first guy never said he hasn’t played Vice City or Sam Andreas tho
latina woman as protagonist, the fall of the game industry 😔 /s
still behind cyberpunk tho, that u can play as a trans person
You'd think people would be happy about the player character being a thicc latina but you'd be wrong.
trailer looked good but my interest kinda dropped when it said 2025. when it's that far away my brain is just like "well there's no reason to care about this for another year or more, then" because you know they're just gonna drip feed you the smallest bit of info at a glacial pace until then.
same thing happened when Bethesda announced ES6. I hate when these companies announce projects super early. I wish more games would follow the Fallout 4 route where they announced it in the summer and it released like 4 or 5 months later.
For real. If a game gets announced with a release date that is more than 6 months in the future chances are very high that by the time the game comes out I will no longer have an interest in playing it (unless it turns out to be really really good). I personally don't care about any teasers/hints that marketing drops every now and then up until the release and I don't follow any influencers/shills who make long essays about the latest teaser so most game releases just fly over my head at that point.
Ya Allah Latina Womxn Ultraviolence 😍 mi amor

It's bad enough that women hold up half the sky, now they have to hold up half the citizens of wherever GTA VI is based?
The only downside is the game being set in Florida but we won't get to be Florida Man
There will probably be multiple protagonists like in 5. It wouldn’t make sense for them to go backwards.

Based, I saw it, it already had 35 million views 5 hours in.
IT'S BEEN 10 YEARS OF WAITING LESSSSS GOOOOO!!!
GTA is a notable blank spot in my gaming history, just never interested me much. I could have sworn that earlier games in the franchise had character creators though, were they actually just set male main characters in every one prior?
The only time you could make your character was in the online mode for gta v. You might be thinking of Saints Row.
The first game had eight characters to choose from, with four being female, but nobody gives one or two much thought. Three and on had single main characters, V had the player swapping between three characters as a gameplay/plot mechanic, and V's online component lets you roll you own.
Haven’t seen the trailer yet. I never really understood the hype of watching a Trailer. I feel like they just show the best parts of a game, meanwhile I have no clue if the rest of the game is boring or if the menus are confusing
Reputation plays a big part of it. If your friend has made the best cake multiple times, you trust them to do it again.
The thing that kept me from really, really getting into any GTA game is that it's such an ugly world that I rarely want to spend much time in jt
Niko Bellic talking about his harrowing experiences in the Bosnian War while stuck in traffic lights next to a van with a transphobic joke emblazoned on the side. On a building in the distance a giant billboard featuring a woman pissing into beer bottle can be seen
i never though rockstar would have to balls to actually have a female protagonist
which is funny when you consider how very controversial their whole image used to be
all you had to do was remake the damn san andreas in 4k, rockstar!
If San Andreas had released in 2023 it would have been slammed for being part of the woke white genocide because the protagonist is political.
First scene in thr game is a black man being falsely blamed for killing a police officer and selling drugs and blackmailed by cops for trying to go to his mom's funeral.

The Gamers are already angry.

All the treat defending in the thread makes me wish @[email protected] wasn't on hiatus.
Mfw we discuss a video game in the games community... I made this post to make fun of how rediculous the gamers are reacting to it when usually it's the otherway around. What is obvious is obvious and everyone here knows it, no need to point this out. Most of us will either finish the game in a weekend then never play it again or play it from time to time to shoot cops and never finish the story, GTA games except online aren't really the infinite grinder type that you spend years collecting points to have the newest tank or skin.
Having fun? Not in my revolution
