“Intended game experience” = “We can’t milk the FOMO as effectively now”
They’re going to do so many lay-offs the instant the game is released.
Assholes.
Poor union busters.
They’re unfortunately going to make $7.8B instead of $7.9B…
I wish they’d actually suffer enough to change for the better.
If the leaker had a build, they would have released it by now to deal this damage.
They appear to have a build. In one of the videos, they are shooting at a wall, spelling out “LEEK”.
That not how hostage situations work.
Its not a hostage situation, its an attention seeking situation. Any real leaker just dumps the game instantly.
Not of that leaker is shilling their own cryptocurrency.
That’s assuming that the Real Time evidence is fake. I doubt it, T2 is going after this guy with all thier power.
Im still convinced its marketing now, whether the leak was intentional or not.
Theres no such thing as bad attention in 2026. All that matters is that this leak is viral, and now everyone is talking about GTA.
And less people talking about their union busting.
Precisely.
I actually forgot about this.
ROFL, fuck them!
The intended game experience of paying out of your ass constantly, yes.
Maybe that is the spoiler, they thought of revealing it once you were inside and couldn’t go back.
The intended experience of a wonderfully detailed open world interrupted often by annoying phone calls…
I’m doing research and development for an even smaller world’s smallest violin, it’s not done yet but they’re welcome to pre-order it
lol I never planned on playing it so no disappointment here cockstar.
Oh no!
Anyways…
Oh so heartbreaking. In the end it’s just free marketing and buzz for them, so I’m sure they’re just beside themselves.
If they delayed the release by a month every time a leak came out, I wonder if the leakers would change their tune.
I’d hope they’d leak double as hard honestly.
“If Rockstar did the dumbest thing imaginable, massively pissed off all of their fans, devs, and investors, abandoned their fudiciary duty over an Internet slapfight, and openly put themselves at the complete mercy of leakers who could probably just leak the game to an army of those pissed-off fans anyway, maybe then the leakers would back off.”
I want to put you in charge of a large company and watch you speedrun burning it to the ground within, like, a day. You’re like the Bizarro John Nash.
Oh. My bad, for some reason I thought that the leakers wanted the game to come out. Maybe I was wrong!
Okay, I admit I was wrong and only said those things because I was jealous of your strategic genius. Can you elaborate on your idea to
tank the value of TTWO and give leakers unilateral control of the release schedule of Rockstar’s biggest product in 13 yearsbring these leakers to heel?My rationale was that the leakers were frustrated with GTA 6 taking so long to come out, so delaying the game might make them more frustrated and hurt their cause.
Of course, it is certainly likely that I am wrong and these leakers are just leaking stuff for fun or something.
No. iIRC the leaker is pissed off at gratuitous microtransactions, live service slop and other AAA shenanigans
I see. I am not sure how this will help!
I’ve never been very much into GTA, I played GTA 5 a couple of times and was actually underwhelmed. I am saving for my first console and am more excited to get RDR2 and the new Lego Skylines game than GTA 6.
The leaker threatened to continue leaking stuff unless Rockstar promised to cut back on the crap and act in gamer’s best interests.
