I personally won’t because GTA isn’t my thing anymore, but if my brother gets the money by launch, he definitely wants the ultimate edition for PS5.
No
Still haven’t played gta5 story or rdr2
R* are union busting assholes. I’m not giving them a single øre.
I mean, it’s not likely to run on the steam deck and that’s my only gaming device, so. . .
Will pirate in 5 years with dlc and if like the buy 70% off.
Nah.
We’ve got GTA 5, but don’t really enjoy it. (The excessive open-world free-roam, great! The “doing nasty shit” part, not so much.) And THEN there’s the whole “they’re trying to kill discs” thing and just, nah.

I really enjoyed GTA 5. I bought it twice in two different systems. I’ll eventually play 6, but it’s gotta be for a sale. Fuck the $80 price tag, and fuck Rockstar union busting and I hope they unionize hard.
I probably will, but i wont be happy about it. I’ve got a boy who’ll be 15 by then attending a public school.
If it turns out basically everyone has a copy I’ll need to get him one, you know how it is, and with the license-share on our xboxs itll mean I’ll get a copy too. Hopefully the youth of today are actually a lot more politically-minded than i imagine, or the cost of living crisis will mean nearly no parents buy it for them, but I bet I’m going to be buying it.
Pretty bad results for Rockstar
Lol yeah. I expected less interest from this community, but even then I’m surprised.
Good option would be wait for it to be free on epic or something
When it’s less than 50€ and available as disc…
For which you will need internet to activate/play the disc.
So at this point it became a useless piece of plastic anyway.
If it was like on GoG it would at least make sense.In GTA 5, that depends in the hardware. For Playstation and XBox, the disc was enough. No code activation required.
Do they change that, too?
Dunno. Not a console player.
But thwy are supposedly coming at a later date: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/26861883
The disk isn’t completely useless. It’s a physical license key that is transferable and resellable. I was fully planning to purchase a used console to play GTA 6 with a physical disk, then sell both when it came out on PC. That’s still my best plan I guess.
Fair. But you know what? They are rumored to come at a later date.
Take2 felt the gamers wrath and now they’ll prey on the FOMO-players that will go out of their way to buy the game day one.
And the patient gamers can buy the CD.https://www.vice.com/en/article/rockstar-games-responds-to-gta-6-physical-disc-backlash/
BUT: Take it with a rock of salt. We’ll see.
Yeah, when I said that’s still my best plan, that’s what I was referring to. Currently in the wait and see phase. I really would like to play on launch, but I might be able to wait a month…
Same boat.
Im ready or the big version (on pc) but I’ll wait to see what is included in standard and if it justifies the additional €€€
Why is “buy eventually” not an option? I’m not arranging my life around the PC launch, but I don’t need a sale either.
Agreed. I realized later after reading the comments, that important options such as “maybe later” or something like that is missing.
Can’t vote because I use a VPN but no, I try to avoid paying union busters
I found out there is a setting to unblock VPN users. Please try again, I hope this works now. It was not my intention to block!
Oh, that’s bad. I didn’t know they would block VPNs. There was an option to detect unique users, and I chose by IP (but with option Anonymize voter data). For anyone else, I guess the comment section is the only way to express opinion then.
Downvotes because you decided to block VPNs… Thats what “by IP” most likely does
But this was just an explanation. Why downvote an explanation? I did not decide to block VPNs, in fact I thought it is possible to vote multiple times by using the option “by IP”. It’s the first time I used this website. And by looking at it again, I can see there is an option that says “Block VPN users” and I simply did not see it when creating and left it the default option. So blocking VPN users is an accident here, because of my incompetence, not because I decided to block them with intentions.
I use VPNs myself often, especially with YouTube, and would not wanted to have them blocked here. My apologies.

Voted “Not Interested” while guessing it was the least common option, turns out it’s close to 60% ! I guess this audience is a little biased towards playing indies, maybe that’s why.
I tried 4 and 5 for a few hours each and the mechanics are all very mid. I have no idea how this series became the juggernaut it did. To me it’s as surprising as some random mobile game blowing up, like Angry Birds or Flappy Bird
None of the choices apply to me. I’m pretty excited to play it. Not gonna pay for it though.
🫡🏴☠️
Subs like you’re not interested in buying then
Yeah, but that option would put me in the same box as people not interested in the game at all.
That’s not the question being asked though.
Will you buy GTA 6 when it launches on your platform?
