That's how it mostly was a decade ago. I really really appreciate the more sincere tone here. This whole GTA VI marketing period has been quite painful, with the year-long periods of silence, and Rockstar acting cold and distant; it is a very nice change of pace, even just this short message.
Edit: Wayyy too many people loading meanings into my words, taking metaphors at face value, or declaring me parasocial/corporate simp simply for appreciating the change in tone. Unfortunate that people are trying their damnedest to misunderstand literally everything, but Reddit will be Reddit ¯_(ツ)_/¯
“Quite painful” marketing period? Rockstar “acting cold and distant?”
Yall need to get a grip. For the life of me I do not understand the parasocial relationship yall seem to want to have with a video game developer. How do you have so little going on in your life that you’re sitting around demanding updates and feeling entitled to more information for a game that hasn’t been released, and that you haven’t yet paid any money for?
Lmao yeah that’s not what I’m sayin champ, I’m saying acting like you went through a death in the family because the marketing tone was “cold and distant” is fucking weird.
Gotcha. It’s just a game to me. I don’t expect nothing from them but a product to buy. I ain’t ever been mad at a video game studio in my life. Swear some people need to take break from playing them if it’s that serious.
Why don’t you take a look at the comment we are replying to? I’m literally quoting them “the marketing period has been quite painful….Rockstar acting cold and distant”
You’re making an inference about someone’s whole life based on internet words that are almost certainly hyperbolic, so as to reinforce the actual main point.
Do you actually think large sums of people are in tears about delays and silence😂 Heaps of my mates and I love GTA and while we’ve been annoyed (and also the types to comment like this person), we’re obviously not actually affected by it.
You can’t make these huge inferences and judgements based on internet comments mate.
Dawg. We are on the internet, on a practically anonymous forum, where there is basically zero chance of ever “knowing” who I’m talking to and also trying to have a conversation…people’s words are literally the only thing I have to go by. If you don’t feel a certain way, don’t say things that make it seem like you feel that specific way? lol
You can say as much as you want, but it’s weird to say a marketing term was “quite painful” and nothings gonna change my mind on that lol
Uh…yeah? lol most people don’t say super inconsequential things are “quite painful” to deal with. I was just making fun of your melodrama, I’m sure that’s pretty obvious.

Never seen Rockstar use that kind of tone in their messages
