Comment on Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer released early by rockstar after it was supposedly leaked

Looks fun but I’m going to wait until I see some in game footage.

The level of people in the comments section who seem to think they’ll be getting all of what they’re seeing in the trailer is alarming.

I imagine everything you see in the trailer is in-engine footage, even if it’s not being controlled by the player. This has always been the case with GTA trailers since GTA3.

  I don’t mind the way the actual trailer was done, but I’d definitely have preferred to see actual gameplay given they gave a release window. It telegraphs a rushed release, because if it was feature-complete they’d show gameplay

    Or… It’s just the first trailer for a game they’ve been hounded for years at this point? They don’t need to put in effort to sell GTA6 at this point, they basically could just release GTAV with some QOL fixes and features (looking at you load times, still) and they’d have buyers lined up. GTA6 at this point in time is already a fully fueled hype train, until they announce a massive delay, so they can trickle feed out trailers with minimal effort up until that point. Obviously this is my opinion and such, but I would be honestly a little surprised if they were rushing it, given how 5 performed at launch.

    Of course, a delay is preferable to a rushed launch. Cyberpunk showed we can have both, though. I’m just pushing back on this new idea that in-engine footage is a substitute for gameplay. While we’re deducing stuff based on the trailer, the game not being feature complete would mean that whatever is possible in-engine is irrelevant anyway. The whole later step of scaling and optimising to the platforms they’re releasing on hasn’t happened yet

Is it? Doesn’t seem unrealistic to me at all.

What’s the in trailer that you couldn’t expect? I didn’t really see anything GTA V didn’t already have.

Rockstar have a better track record for giving us what they show us in their initial trailer. We’re not talking about Ubisoft or CDPR here.
