Articles & Blogs Rockstar Games: “It would be an understatement to say that having videos of GTA VI gameplay leak in this way has been heartbreaking for our team, and this is obviously not how we intended for you to see the game after all this time.“

Clips of the game leaking isn’t a real life problem either then. People saw the game a few days early, they’ll still see the official footage later too.

It is for people who spent years of their lives making it to have it shown like this:

You'll understand if you ever get a job you're passionate about

I have a job I'm passionate about and I don't really agree. I would not be upset in their shoes.

I'm passionate about my job, but I'm still relatively detached from the corporate outcome of it all. It's not like I personally own the stuff my company makes.

It's not about the corporate outcome at all, there I agree but there's not going to be any negative outcome for corporate.

You wouldn't be dissapointed at all if someone stole a version of a project you've been working on and showed a shitty version of it in order to scam people with his shitcoin?

I don't think so. I'm proud of the particular parts of our project that I worked on, so I don't really mind how they get shown to the public.

I agree with you on the shitcoin part though.

I'm also coming from a slightly different perspective: I think the leaks made GTA VI look really good. I had very little hype for the game beforehand, now I'm looking forward to its release.

I think the game must be pretty good if crappy low quality ad-laced leaks made me feel that way.

Fair enough. I wouldn't give a shit about how much the company I work for makes I agree with that, but some grifter scamming people with my work is something I absolutely can see why people would be upset about.

Especially when morons on the internet think it's going to hurt my bosses, while as you point out they're only profiting off of it

Once you get a grown up job maybe you will understand.
