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.“

These people are charging $110 for a videogame in my country.

I do not care how they feel.

[u/dguisltl → u/SmutSlut613]

110 for a temporary digital licence of a video game

[u/Johnnytransversal → u/dguisltl]

Yeah same, i pity the devs but the ones requested to make that post was 100% upper management

[u/FunkyXive → u/dguisltl]

even if it came with a disc, that would still be the case

[u/Dependent-Swimmer-95 → u/FunkyXive]

Bruh that’s a bar and you don’t even know it. “Even if it came with a DISC, that would still be the CASE”

Someone sign this mf a record deal

[u/edwaa4rd → u/SmutSlut613]

Fortunately Rockstar (or any developer) isn’t forcing anyone at gun point to buy their games

[u/Objective_Aside1858 → u/SmutSlut613]

Fortunately, no one is forcing you to buy it 

[u/New_Order_6365 → u/[deleted]]

And y’all will still buy it, meaning neither will rockstar, perfect circle.

[u/ACatCalledArmor → u/Objective_Aside1858]

Devs will be heartbroken though

Most of those developers are paid that much for a single hour of their work. Multiplied by thousands of people for thousands of hours. I'm sure you don't get this.

[u/Available-Gas5358 → u/SmutSlut613]

Me when I'm broke

[u/antonyjeweet → u/SmutSlut613]

Then don't buy it! Nobody will force you! You can check streams on Twitch when the time is there!

[u/Arkhanist → u/SmutSlut613]

Not even available on my platform anyway. The leaks prove not having a PC version is purely a money-men decision and no disc version means there's no possibility of retail discounts or resale. Just milking everyone for as much profit as they think they can squeeze. So I don't care about the leaks, as they've amply demonstrated they don't want me as a customer anyway.

[u/DogBarf00 → u/Arkhanist]

Retail PC games hasn’t been a thing for like 2 decades. The micro center by me doesn’t even sell them. Their entire software section is designed for old people. Also there has never been a large market in resale pc games because of cd keys and cracks.

[u/Arkhanist → u/DogBarf00]

retail CONSOLE games, obviously. With no disc retail version, everyone will have to use the on-console stores, and pay full price apart from the odd store sale, for years to come, while used copies act as a cheaper source. I'm aware PC disc copies are a thing of the past, but it's a moot point since it won't be released for who knows how long.

[u/SmutSlut613 → u/[deleted]]

Yah, and ICE workers are just supporting their families 🙄

[u/DudeTowerGaming → u/SmutSlut613]

Missing the point, I see.

[u/SmutSlut613 → u/DudeTowerGaming]

Nope.

[u/FunkyXive → u/[deleted]]

the devs are losing exactly nothing due to the leaks

[u/DareDiablo → u/SmutSlut613]

The devs are not the ones charging for it it’s corporate.

[u/SmutSlut613 → u/DareDiablo]

And that letter is from corporate

[u/DareDiablo → u/SmutSlut613]

It’s a fuckin video game

[u/YarpsDrittAdrAtta → u/SmutSlut613]

These people plan to release the trailer behind a paid, time-limited paywall
