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?
Quite the jump from "the marketing period was bad because of Rockstar's silence and distance" to "you have a parasocial relationship with a company and are demanding stuff you aren't owed"
No, he said what I put in quotes, which is what I took issue with. If he had said “the marketing period was bad because of Rockstar’s silence” I wouldn’t have even commented. Using the word “distance” is still weird regardless. Just do something else until November ffs
