Rockstar, the next GTAs are so easy.

Remake San Andreas.

Remake Vice City.

Remake GTA 3.

Hell, they don't even have to be standalone games with a story, just release the maps as DLC for GTA V.

would love to see los fierro (SF) and las venturas again

so much time wasted in las venturas driving the strip and gambling mindlessly online

wonder if anyone still plays the gta sa rp servers i used to go to

basically 200 people online in one city (Los Santos, Las Venturas, San Fierro)

the chaos

 

[John Price]

always love how GTA V had like 30 people max in a server

a city doesn't have 30 people in it

SA-MP is a free Massively Multiplayer Online game mod for the PC version of Rockstar Games Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (tm).

The lag

The lag

there was no lag IIRC

I will say, I never played enough GTA IV, mostly because the driving was atrocious.

However, there are some aspects of it that are still better than parts of GTA V.

Back in the day, it was fun to drive around San Andreas and just dick around.

Doesn't quite hit the same when playing GTA V, more than 15 years later

I still remember my dad not letting me buy San Andreas for a year or two after it came out, because he was afraid I would join a gang.

Yeah, the meek and awkward white boy living in the suburbs is going to join a gang.

Technically I've never beaten GTA IV as the helicopter chase at the end was a pain

The DLC was pretty good though

That music is annoying.

And those graphics look turrible

LOL 1000 PEOPLE ON A GTA SA SERVER

GTA congress lirl

That's what makes for a fun videogame, POLITICS

Every time I edit a post, I hit save changes and I'm shown a blank white screen then I have to refresh to bring everything back.

That's annoying. Probably some illegal adblocking bullshit.

Giant faceless corporations obviously need money to operate.

My point was that my individual contribution is so insignificant that it effectively doesn't matter.

Plus industries should just adapt.

Remember when music piracy was a huge deal and people like Metallica cried about it for a while

Then the music industry just realised where you make the money is from live shows and planned their finances around that

 

[Siamese Dream]

Taylor Swift was also crying about Spotify for a while but then that issue went away

 

[Siamese Dream]

And with the gaming industry the reason they've ramped up in-game transactions is because they couldn't keep rising the price of the game along with inflation because they'd probably cause a piracy problem for themselves.

Video games have stayed relatively the same price for years compared to the normal RPI, they make up for it with the in-game purchases, as awful as they are. The alternative is $100+ for a game and then you probably create a piracy market because people won't pay that

Adapting

 

[Sega Dreamcast]

I don't understand how budgeting works for AAA games.

Witcher 3 cost 46 million to make, while BF4 cost 100 million?

@Zaide Rose should make a song called "On the Cloud" lmao

everyone listens to music ON THE CLOUD

All I ever needed is ON THE CLOUD

List of most expensive video games to develop - Wikipedia

Quite a few games with a marketing budget larger than the production budget

What actually happened that new Cyberpunk game, I feel like that was a huge deal for a week and then went away
