The nanosecond GTA6 is available for purchase everyone complaining about this will be smashing that add to cart button and pretending there was never an issue

Taking long to release a new game isn't the problem imo. The real problem is how shit online was from day one and them starting to milk that online cow dry from day one with with boring grindy missions and microtransactions.

I'll see reviews and if the single player is good, and I mean really good, I'll wait for a PC release and buy it, but if that happens, I promise to never even touch any Rockstar online mode, unless a real miracle happens and they actually make it fun to play, which most definitely won't happen.

Then again wouldn't be too surprised if rockstar fucks up tue single player too this time. They probably eventually will do that to one of their games with how things have been going.

What's the issue

That's what we want, though? This isn't about boycotting them, it's about being burned out on waiting and seeing re-releases on new platforms.

Very astute, thank you

The issue portrayed is that every other game lasted only a few years and things were better and healthier. Moving on to 6 invalidates this meme altogether until they announce it’s also going to last over ten years.
