I disagree that video games are more affected by leaks than any other medium. They are probably the least affected as video games are an interactive experience.

A leaked film may prevent sales since a plot point can make or break a whole film. A leaked record may affect sales and royalties, a leaked book too. A game in development is constantly changing so what we saw in no way will it reflect how it would actually look.

It was a huge leak-but let’s not exaggerate here. It will not affect GTA 6 sales. Even a different franchise that isn’t as big either as gameplay is what makes video games. Not pre alpha images and videos.

@franwex. Dam drop the Mike brother you just spoke facts.

This whole thing has been nothing but overkill. Does it suck for rockstar maybe a little but it isnt hurting this game. Yall need to chill tfo. This game will sell millions upon millions. Rockstar lost a little surprise element. End of story

TheColbertinator574d ago

That's a very good point.

it may be early in development but the next GTA already has my full attention. These developers put too little faith in themselves sometimes and believe they may lose sales from early builds but I disagree. True fans of GTA will always recognize the hard work at Rockstar Games and will be ready day one for the next crime time fiery mess.

It doesn't matter with GTA.

No offense but Palworld isn't that original either, with that said… ew Tencent no thank you. I love the survival genre but all these half baked early access games have ruined the genre for me.

>Palworld isn't that original either

Can't disagree with that, but it did spin the Pokemon dynamic in a unique way, you gotta give Pocketpair that. Now by doing so, prepare for a ton of Palworld clones, both on PC and mobile.

True, but big pocket people pushing out little pocket people is a huge problem. It's Walmart of the digital world.

Not much that can be done though. Tencent been making clones of what's popular for a while. I don't touch anything they make, except for Don't Starve but i bought that before Klei sold themselves to the devil.

Christopher8h ago(Edited 8h ago)

@Inverno: There's a lot that can be done, actually. Just no one is willing to do it. Anti-competitive/monopoly laws literally exist for this exact reason. Governments are just letting big corporations do whatever they want.
