Will GTA 6 live up to the hype? (lemm.ee)

With how disappointing the latest sequels of famous franchises had been during this first half of the 2020s (except resident evil, yay) I expect GTA to fall a bit short as well...

Like, it's going to be a good game but it won't blew anyone away. Also probably is going to be the buggiest GTA at launch. That's the trend in big games now.

It's arguably the most anticipated game of all time so the expectations are enormous and you can see in this very thread that people are already voicing nagativity and assuming the worst despite it hasn't even released yet or the devs given any reason to doubt them (GTA5 was great, RDR2 was absolutely epic).

So it will likely not live up to the hype, but I for one will ignore other people's butthurt, book at least 2 weeks of PTO at work and enjoy the game.

Yeah my hype is based on 25+ years experience with the games, not what anyone says about if before they’ve touched it. I’m usually the NO Preorder type, but Rockstar is one of maybe 2 companies that get my money up front without question(until they prove otherwise).
