  Guess I’ll just wait to buy the GOTY edition for $10 in a few years because if you think I’m paying $80 for any video game you are out of your fucking mind.

  So sell it for $60 then sell 4 DLCs for $15 each…isn’t that what everyone else is doing?

    Rockstar doesn’t sell DLC, that takes work. They sell you in game currency to buy all the stuff that they make way too difficult to grind for on your own in multi-player. That’s not a joke, GTA V online, a 13 year old game for the Playstation 3, makes almost half a BILLION DOLLARS a year selling in game currency

    No, sell it for 80$, and then 4 dlc for 20$ each.

  Don’t give Rockstar any amount of cash while they are union busting.

  Capital C capitalists are the dumbest motherfuckers out there. The price of creating a game is going down, the ceiling is just rising and developers are chasing that ceiling. The market has also grown exponentially, they don’t need to raise prices to get the same profit. Games are already very expensive and the economy is only going to get worse, raising the price will ensure only exceptional games make a profit (or games that don’t follow the stupid increase). Not to mention new forms of piracy means they’re competing against a price point of $0.

  Is there any insider info on the micro transactions we’re gonna see in GTA6 online?

  The shark cards thing was a freaking racket for Rockstar so there’s no way we don’t see that again.

  At certain points it was not fun to play online if you didn’t have certain assets because you’d get spawn raped over and over by punks who obviously had too much grinding time or too much cash to burn.

  I’d have no problem dropping $80 if that was under control and I could expect a fun balanced experience even if I can play just a couple times a week.

  If it’s going to be pay to win, better make it a free client with an unlockable story mode or something.

    It’s not even clear if GTAO will be included at launch. It wasn’t for GTAV. But GTAO also wasn’t the most profitable game in the history of all games yet either. So… GTAO2 might be there at launch.
