Sweet. LatinX body positivity, equity and diversity. Finally someone at rockstar is LISTENING. Hope all other problematic aspects of the previous games are handled. We need GTA 6 to be a safe and inclusive space.
GTA Online has been writing for both Male and Female characters for years now so I don't know why some of you are upset about this now. And again, due to how society is now, I could take something from GTAV that isn't well known, post it here, and most of you would be screaming that Rockstar have gone "woke".

Which means there is nothing traditional about the "redneck" character, thus he identifies as country because he is crude. People like this in real life are just vulgar acting in many respects.

I have typed some excellent posts on NeoGAF but never one as excellent as this.Fuz you are appreciated. Bravo!
Why is it excellent? Men can like what they like - ass or no ass. No one has to follow anyone's subjective tastes of standards or validate the other because of some weird sense of comraderie over tastes.

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
Remember when GTA 4 went with a Russian? Everyone was okay with that. If they did a Russian today people would be rioting at Rockstar HQ.

Guys...it just takes a single google search.
Also, I really hope the people who moved the goal post from 'she's going to have no curves because woke' and are now complaining about the legs and ass size, aren't also fans of Chun Li.
Because that would mean you're being hypocrites. But let's wait and see if the goal post of complaints will be moved again. Doubling down seems to be the favorite blackjack move in this thread.

Reverse groomer.
main thing I'm asking here is how these 2 are in any way related and how their stories are gonna converge somehow. Latina Woman and redneck white dude is like the 2 most far away people you can think of, rockstar has to be thinking of something wild to have those be the 2 main protagonists.
Like even with GTA5 the natural progression from Trevor being some hillbilly wacko in the dumps, to Franklin being a lower middle-class guy living in the ghetto, and Michael being an upper-class citizen with all the money he'd ever want made sense sort of, but how would a Latina Girl and a redneck work?

Hypothetically speaking what are the chances that R* keeps the characters but changes their ethnicities? is that possible, to keep them fresh in people's minds because of the leak?

Why 13% of black people in the usa and we played as franklin too. Also its a game it has nothing to do with the real world. And shouldn’t. its entertainment.
Also latina woman is hot af. i welcome it.

Hypothetically 10,000%. Realistically not likely at all. Why should they?

I hear you but Chun li has Olympic squat legs and the latina has a high body fat percentage legs.Guys...it just takes a single google search.
Also, I really hope the people who moved the goal post from 'she's going to have no curves because woke' and are now complaining about the legs and ass size, aren't also fans of Chun Li.

Both look fine but are not the same thing.

Both are also not real people, so neither has done olympic squats or eaten too many tamales. These kinds of comparisons are so strange.

They’ve probably got their story completely written, with full background and cultural references, voice lines probably recorded to some degree, portions of the city are probably closely tied to the specific character types, like Trevor and the trailer park, and all the side characters that go along side the trailer park etc. There’s no way, what?
They're lovers. Rockstar has taken influence from Bonnie and Clyde and also Natural Born Killers for this set of protagonists.

Ironic. If you played GTA you would know they never lecture, they just make fun of everyone. Like South Park.

Why would they have a fat-ass as the protagonist if you will be staring at the ass constantly?well..

Have you see the butterface thread? There are a lot of folks here who are attracted to obese/unhealthy body types.

I'm all for ugly, overweight people (I'm sort of overweight) to be represented in movies, games and ads on TV and online...but I really don't want to look at them.

Meh, I don't think overweight/ugly people need to be "represented". But I also don't think *anyone* needs representation.
But the point I am trying to make is that ther eis clearly an audience for this kind of character design. Just not for me.
