    Boycott Rockstar. Fuck em. GTA 5 made over $8 billion dollars. One of the higest grossing games of all time. If Rockstar can’t take properly care of that kind of talent they don’t deserve success.

    https://www.finance-monthly.com/how-much-money-has-grand-theft-auto-v-generated/

    When GTA V first launched on September 17, 2013, it immediately shattered industry records. Within 24 hours, it earned over $800 million in sales, and by the end of its third day, it had crossed the $1 billion mark — faster than any film, album, or video game in history…

    By 2025, GTA V has sold over 185 million copies worldwide, making it the second best-selling video game of all time, behind only Minecraft…

    GTA Online alone has generated billions in microtransaction revenue, contributing significantly to the game’s overall $8 billion figure.

    They fired these people to stop unionization. Total scumbags. I hope the game flops but I know it will make billions of dollars.

    People make games

    Are they gonna spend 75% of the video talking about how the employees were kind of problematic and deserved it?

      That one was so bad they had to make a second video about it lol.

      But I’m glad they did, to be clear.

          Lol was it? I thought they apologized and fixed up a bunch of stuff people complained about in their first one.

            They basically said “Well the problem was the order we told the facts in, and this made you stupid dummies unable to understand the facts we told you”.

    Yeah, I had no intention of buying this anyway since RDR2 was just fine and GTA5 kinda sucked all around, but now i’m going to pirate it a dozen times over because that makes them lose money, right? if we just download it enough times the bank takes all their money.
