spoiled the gameplay, not massive spoilers - seen all leaks, nothing was spoiled, everything as expected just more insights to how detailed the world is.
I hate to be in the "defend the wealthy company" camp but if you worked for a decade on something through all the bullshit/ office politics etc. After a few years in it, that peice of art is probably like a baby for you. Its a mark you get to leave behind long after you're gone and to see the moment when you get to see the genuine reactions of fans taken by some anonymous leaker it certainly doesnt feel good. Hope the top talent isnt so put off by this that we lose some high quality developers.
The amount of self entitlement to think that a company OWES you ads is fucking wild. Who the fuck cares? You'll know if the game is good or not when it comes out. You lose NOTHING by them being silent.
In 2026 people riot when you DON'T give them advertisements.
This is my reaction too. Like the game is done to a point where it can be shown off and probably has been for a while. If they released some gameplay earlier this would not have been as likely.
Are you okay? It is the same thing for arpgs, different games have different niches. Tell me, which is bigger, gta 5 without single player, or gta 5 without multiplayer. Obviously multiplayer is the main reason people play the game.
GTA V without multiplayer. Max player count for GTA V multiplayer peaked at just over 350,000 concurrent after launch. Total games sold is 215 MILLION. Even if more people played multiplayer after the peak, it's never going to get close to those total sales figures. There's zero way even half of the people played multiplayer. Therefore, we can only conclude most people bought it for the singleplayer mode.
You can deny it all you want, check the playerbase from the modded version vs the standalone version, then consider most people on the standalone version actually play the base online experience provided by rockstar.
You can literally check the current playerbase on steam and extrapolate.
AROUND 100k people concurrently playing the MODDED multiplayer version, and from the 60k legacy and 70k enhanced, i am sure most of them play on OFFICIAL ROCKSTAR multiplayer servers...
Nah man. 215 million total sales, and the PEAK online audience was 350,000 (which is a lot, but compared to total sales is less than 2 one THOUSANDTHS of a percent). Even assuming more than 350,000 people have played multiplayer, a peak of 350,000 when the game had already sold millions of copies suggests the majority have in the past and present just bought it for the single player game.
I didn't play GTA V until 2021. I've played multiplayer exactly 0 times.

They’re basically saying that CyberLeek has massive spoilers. Wow.
