GTA is famous for satirizing America, will R* have the balls to satirize the current climate?

Yeah and those blacks lean left lmao and what about all the other minorities? Why did you only focus on blacks....interesting.
You willing to bet cash that as time passes the more """left""" things become?
The only culture war here is right wing whites against left wing whites.
Everyone else is already primarily left lmao statistically speaking
And "talking points"? Dude, im not WRONG when i say other countries dont look at trump favorably. Thats not a talking point, thats a fact that doesnt happen to work in your fucking favor lol im not WRONG when i say the majority of EVERY other ethnic group statistically leans left. Why do you think BIG cities lean left genius? More diversity, these arent "talking points" it's reality, live in it please. You wouldnt even win an election without the electoral college lol
Middle state whites...thats the LARGE majority of the republican demographic. A realllly bad look for you tbh

With the recent departures I'm not sure.
Otherwise I'd expect it to make fun of both sides really, while not focusing the main story on either of them.
I'd imagine something like the main character having a friend that's basically a Maga hat wearing, redneck caricature shown to be really dumb and racist. And maybe an annoying daughter or something with pink/blue hair getting offended about the most absurd of things.

Remember when EA bought Bioware/Pandemic?
EA buys BioWare, Pandemic - IGN
Electronic Arts announced today that it has purchased the holding company that owns BioWare and Pandemic Studios.
Usually they come with a 5 year clause where higher ups get paid even more millions to stay, but with morally just people like Ray Mu.....oh...
=)
and people get fired all the time, no where did I fucking say zero or "no impact" would happen to some product, simply that most don't give a shit and most don't leave solely for some moral reason alone or something. Forgot to mention they left with those millions huh?

Yep, we sure are moving towards a bright new future with these leftist policies that result in book burnings, persecution based on your gender and political beliefs, and all the other things that I was told only fascists do...

The only people giving a fuck about the things you give a fuck about are the minority republicabs in this country comprised of primarily middle state whites. More people care about inclusion, science towards the enviroment, and social equality and shit like that.Yep, we sure are moving towards a bright new future with these leftist policies that result in book burnings, persecution based on your gender and political beliefs, and all the other things that I was told only fascists do...
Your ideology is only gonna last like maybe 40 years more. Even Texas almost went blue for gods sake.
And if the VAST majority of the people in your party are white, and from the states nobody wants to go to....then you should take a moment of reflection lol shouldnt be a surprise that you cant win a popular vote
Which party is more likely to vote with christianity in mind and not give a fuck about science? Republicans? Yeah have fun being part of that and looking good lmao

I really hope they stick to what they've always done, however I definitely wouldn't go all in on that hand.
Seeing what happened with the guy from the Harry Potter game "stepping down", I don't think Rockstar can survive today's climate. Is that why I heard they are going back to older time periods so they can use the excuse of if being from older time compared to setting a game in modern day?

I was taking your comment as there would be no difference with the loss of the most talented people in the room, but i could be wrong.. though thats very rare.

I think it's funny that you all expect Rockstar to make fun of cancel culture, but they make the most fun about conservatives. Can you guys handle it?

Many old people from R* have left.
The focus on multiplayer means that they care only about money and they have hired sjw for years.

you're wrong. And i bet youre an out of touch white guy who feels so morally superior that you think you can speak for where minorities fall on the political spectrum like we're just fucking statistics.

They will definitely make fun of it... but I think it will feel flat and neutered... cuz it will be. No way they go full South Park and call us out on our insanity and palpable cognitive dissonance.
while I do expect some humor critical of the “woke”, I expect more boomer bashing than anything. Like I fully expect a mission(s) that revolve around EVs and I can see there being some “ignorant boomers” we claim v8 muscle is king, only to get smoked by a Watt Model 3.
to be honest I hope they get Alex Jones and/or Joe Rogan to do talk radio channels. Jones is great at self deprecating and would make it fun. Would be PR shitstorm.... but press is press, and tastes best when it’s free.

Hard to imagine the next game will take place in modern day. They just did that with GTAV.
That said it would be funny to hear radio ads for new prison wardens for the Kamala Harris gulags, only BIPOC can apply.

I always love GTA crude joke and madness but perhaps those glory days are over
Any stupid prank and satirical joke that might offend someone and theyre risking themselves getting cancelled and boycoted
Some people these days already labelled GTA game as sexist and problematic as they describe that GTA game are all about men fantasy utopia ( strip club, objectfying women, alcohol, car hijack, criminal game that embrace violence etc)

That’s going to be interesting to see especially in the political climate we’re in right now, I hope Rockstar Games doesn’t cave into the SJW bullshit I hope they go all out and be realistic with our current climate just like they did with GTA 4 & 5. But it also depends on what era they decide to go on.

Statistically minorities arent primarily republican. At all. This isnt even debatable. The fact that were even discusisng it like it is, tells me how bad things really are.
Looks like we just wont believe what doesnt benefit us. And no im not white lmao
The fact that I have to quote this is terrifying. You know this is the truth, yet...why are we playing games like it isnt?
Middle state Whites are keeping the GOP alive lol

Yes, whoever said that most minorities are Republicans, you sure showed them. They apparently aren't in this thread, you are using some nonexistent argument as an indication of "how bad things really are". Is this an invisible person you are debating or something? Secret posts that none of us are seeing?

Yep its the reseteras of the world which is basically twitter as normal people get banned from those places. If we all stand up to the pronoun in the bio nutters collectively (bring the fight to them) we can end this bullshit.

That may be so for normal people but the corporations bow to their marketing departments which take marching orders from .02% of the population. The wierdos on twitter with pronouns in their bios , only fans accounts and say shit like "my truth" or "yassss slay queen ".Yet people are triggered over GTA...RIGHT NOW, TODAY.
Ban sale of Grand Theft Auto, other violent video games, state rep says
With carjackings rising, Rep. Marcus Evans wants to prohibit the sale of violent video games promoting criminal activity. Also Monday, Operation Safe Pump announced its gas station guards program will expand to south suburban Olympia Fields.chicago.suntimes.com
Enough buy it, don't give a shit and will support it.
So I don't know how its "not the same" when that article is literally about GTAV, right now. We've heard all that shit before though. Plenty of "young people" were also on the side of cancelling Far Cry 5 only for it to become the best selling Far Cry in history.
Not as much people give a shit about this crap as you guys actually think.

It's a GTA game so they better give the people what they want.
It's kind of a no Brainer. Do you piss off your base or the soyboy cancel culture?
People have become too sensitive. 6 Dr Seuss books got taken off shelves for sakes. I hope they go after everyone and piss off every group imaginable.
I think their bigger problem might be the main guy leaving.

They'd do both. Either side has extremist bitching that can't take a joke anymore, if either of them even knew half the jokes made in GTAV then they'd have a fit.

Wow wonder if they have the balls to take on Donald Trump and his supporters. Then they will be as edgy as the ladies of The View. Or Jimmy Fallon. So ballsy.
You guys it's not going to be modern day. It will be set in a time period so they can easily parody the concerns of the era. Just like GTA: SA had talk radio about 90s stuff.

Well I think their way out will be having a female protagonist.
Then they could do the same shit they always do.. but as a female.

Thing is they obviously have a really loyal fanbase to the IP who have expectations. There will be someone doing calculations based on possible losses and gains to sales by making changes to the formula. And that is what will drive any changes.
They can't change GTA Online now given its player base and the fact they are splitting it out and making it its own thing. There are expectations of Los Santos and how it's built and behaves.
I'm guessing they will want to pick this up somehow:
www.dexerto.com
Looks like they still intend to go that way though ultimately

Rockstar boss 'thankful' not to be releasing GTA 6 during Trump's presidency

Even Japan isn't safe anymore. There has been a push to treat Japan like the U.S. when it comes to inclusion. I don't remember if it was over anime or games though.
