      One flaw in your video it’s not rockstar it’s Take Two interactive they are responsible for monetization in rockstar games hence why they were the parent company doing the dmca take downs rockstar creates the games take-two makes it profitable.

      @@turbobandana2159 well yes, kinda. Rockstar still has legal independence. What happens is that they typically focus all litigious affairs in one office. So if you ever get a DMCA it will always come signed as Takw Two. But Rockstar can still propose and initiate decision processes from what I've seen. So we can't really know for sure who is mostly responsible for the creation and decline of the game due to microtransactions.

      ​@@ObviousMalcolm_PLUS one thing everyone seems to forget is that rdr2 was a fantastic game. The devs aren't lazy or greedy. People think games like rdr2 just fall out of the sky left and right? These games take many many years to develop and perfect and polish. The attention to detail and graphical fidelity of rdr2 is still unmatched today. Pretty much nothing on the market comes close even five years later. Rdo didn't deserve to be abandoned but when all any rockstar fan plays is GTA online of course they are gonna be a cynic. I don't play GTA online as that sorta crap just doesn't appeal to me. If you guys think rockstar is just lazy and doesn't innovate then you clearly have no understanding of the inner workings of game development let alone game development on the largest scale ever. They have the entire world on their shoulders and GTA 6 has to deliver anything and everything perfectly with no flaws just for people to be half satisfied and people are upset it's taking awhile? Gimme a break...it's not a lack of innovation it's the fact that the studio is making the biggest most influential and most expensive piece of media in human history. No big deal tho... should only take em all a week to develop the entire game front to back. In the meantime they should stop being so lazy...

    Great video but not gonna lie I got a little annoyed when you lumped in saints row with the "open world games trying to copy Rockstar" camp. Thats one of the main reasons the saints franchise got ruined cause the studio got tired of being compared to gta even though if you played the series even the first two titles they were drastically different from gta. And them going more off the rails with each installment to try to differentiate from Rockstar basically put the series at a dead end with the 4th game, and now we're left with a terrible reboot thst has killed the series for now. Saints row will never be as successful as gta but its not a gta clone. Not every open world crime game was trying to be gta, and now Rockstar basically don't have any competition which allows them to get away with all their misdeeds and this "gta clone" rhetoric has played a large part in that

    • @ObviousMalcolm_PLUS
      @ObviousMalcolm_PLUS  Год назад +32

      Saints Row being a GTA clone is not a negative comment. Their best game was the second, of which in a lot of elements they brought in new cool concepts that even GTA didn't have. But there's no denying the whole genre was based off the type of open world exploration Rockstar pioneered with the series. I guess in the end, the conflict is whether you consider a clone a bad thing.
      Of which i do not. Sometimes you don't have to be the first. You just have to better or at the very least good. And the first Saints Row games were good. But it was clear they followed a formula

      I think the problem is they really can't do that much about it because they decided to make the servers P2P instead of dedicated, and to effectively patch hacks and exploits they would have to remake the entire online networking aspect of the game, which is by far the most complicated part of game development and would cost them too much money to be worth it, especially since the game is still (somehow?) a money printer in its current broken state, and even with all that hackers would still easily adapt and overcome as they always do, so the cost/benefit analysis is pretty simple here. All we can do is pray that they learn from their mistakes and actually put some effort into gta6 online.

    Sadly, it isn't just Rockstar. Since gaming went from being a niche hobby to the mainstream, many AAA publishers discovered they could make more money selling low-quality garbage to the masses than making high-quality games for hardcore gamers.

    Completely agree with you. The sad thing is that when Rockstar truly apply themselves, they can make some amazing games. RDR2 was a masterpiece, so very detailed in ways that aren't always appreciated. I truly loved the narrative, which would have been Oscar-worthy if it had been a movie. But with the way Rockstar treated the game, you'd think it had been this massive failure. But it wasn't. It was just that it went up against GTA-Online, a huge money maker, which has heavily skewed it towards unrealistic expectations. Rockstar should never have expected the same out of RDR Online. How sad is it that RDR2 being the newer more detailed game, got mostly ignored, in favour of a game originally released in 2013! Are we expecting that Rockstar will be fully devoted to GTA 6 when it releases, or will it keep milking the previous?
    I kind of wish Rockstar would spin off their online teams into a separate studio to let the main ones continue to actually make games.

    The statement regarding on Cuckstar’s music addiction is spot on. Not much people call this action out.

    I think regardless of what rockstar pushes, the player base won’t drop too much until gta 6 or something bigger/better comes out, solely because it gives people a “life” that they’re in control of, where they can earn those high expense items without having leave the couch or chair or whatever. It’s an escape into the CEO’s of todays regular lives that many people fear they will never accomplish or acquire. It’s just sad though that they’ve intentionally nuked the game with so much content that any new players will feel like they need to spend money to start making it or keep up with older players. In the og days of online, it never felt like you needed to spend a single penny because in a couple days or weeks of regular play you could realistically attain most things you wanted and do dumb shit with your friends. Now, if a group of 3-4 friends hop into the game as new players, it’s seems like to even start enjoying it you have to invest hundreds or thousands of hours before it even becomes enjoyable. Sad direction of a once great game and company :/

    I've been saying something parallel to this, but what I prefer was more gang sets, made Los Santos a lot bigger, make Davis and a dlc for Franklin, Michael and Trevor having their own spinoff with at least 8-15 missions and been done with it, and a Families vs Ballas edition on how the African American gangs started, and I know it wasn't in no 80s, so I'm guessing the flourishing and concept of the gangs, formulated around the late 60s early 70s, and progressed to what is.

  • @vincentprice9156
    @vincentprice9156 Год назад +1

    The whole Online mode needs a complete overhaul...Online should have
    Just imagine if Gta Online implemented all the gangs already in the game as part of an interactive rpg like realistic world. Where you could choose to align yourself with what gang you choose.
    Each Gang and MC already in the game could have its own exclusive unlockable perks, like Property, Gang Hideouts, Weapons, Skills, Vehicles, Clothes, Paint Jobs, and Respect to command Rpg members in time. Relationship meters for each gang where what you do and the jobs you take actually influence your relationship with the gangs.
    Regular Business like Diners, Pizza Shops, Laundry ect could all be used as extra gang fronts where you could hire other players to work at and move thru the ranks with you. In time you could hire and train Npc's upgrading their ranks and skills as you take them on more heists jobs and gang wars.
    They could eventually do the same thing with Law Enforcement where if someone decides to become a cop they can unlock these ability's in a similar way.
    This would make the players actually a part of the living breathing world to build upon vs the random thoughtless free for all where all the players are forced to follow the same exact story and watch all the same cut scenes, unlocking all the same things. Where what they do really has no effect on the world or personalization on anything.
    There could even be two types of lobbies...
    Lobbies for the kids who want and love all the mindless free for all with all the fake vehicles and laser guns there is right now
    Realistic Crime Rpg Lobbies with all the elements I just described. both of these types of lobby's could keep getting their own Dlc's exclusive to their fanbase...
    This would get Rockstar to draw mass revenue from both main types of Gta Fans..As iv'e noticed a divide between the Cartoonish Saints Row style fans and the Realistic GTA fans
    (Hell, they could even use Gta 6 Online to build this type of Realistic Online and keep Gta 5 Online for the Crazy Cartoon stuff, eventually adding each audience the others City thru the airport, adding to each fanbases exclusive world )

    I respectfully agree to disagree to some extent. I disagree with you low quantity of games being a bad thing because games nowadays take a VERY long time compared to how they used to. Decades ago a game could be made with 1-4 people. Now games like RDR2 NEED all that time to make it a masterpiece. RDR2 is the best story mode I’ve ever played and I’d much rather wait that time for such a complex world then get something lower quality quicker. GTA online I’m mixed but it would take a while to explain.

    • @ObviousMalcolm_PLUS
      @ObviousMalcolm_PLUS  Год назад +14

      That is a myth. Even if the games become way more complex nowadays, so do tools and resources. If anything, it it is today that you can see really good quality projects being developed by one man team with Unreal Engine, let alone small indie teams. Rockstar has a bigger workforce than Activision yet they dont release a single game in a 5 year span (2013-2018).
      I dont want Rockstar to rush, I agree with that. But asking for a game with a 9 year development isn't asking for a rushed game. They had plenty of time. Time if which they decided to focus on Online elements and music.

I hate that almost everything is free if you have a modded account with millions or billions of dollars. Every car that comes out, you can purchase it.

It's sad that moded PC roleplay servers are way more fun than the actual online servers made by Rockstar. I like that you can own businesses but its way too grindy due to things be priced so ridiculously. It's like the game wants you to get frustrated and just buy a shark card. I wouldn't mind the grind honestly if it actually meant something in the game. But no body cares what you have they just assume you probably cheated or bought a shark card. All the money you make and property you own is meaningless. Gta online is just a bunch of kids shooting each other and flying down the road crashing into buildings and knocking over street lights. Nobody has any sense of roleplay. It's just a chaotic free for all lol

There's no train robberies, no bank robberies, no heists, nothing that'd make your character an outlaw other than merkin other players. The fact that Rockstar did nothing to truly make RDO the outlaw experience we all expected it to be shows how trash they are as a developer now. Rockstar killed their own game for crying out loud. They killed RDO by not giving us the paying customer what we wanted most of all game modes that made us feel like outlaws. I mean they added that lame ass capital crap and they added a save the town game mode. I wanted to be a gunslinging outlaw that robbed everything and everyone around, but no, they gave us bullshit.

    been following R* for a long time and played most of their games and witnessed throughout the years how they've changed, the next GTA game is their last chance to show if they still got it or not, i've read someone's comment that RDR2 is going to be their last great game because most of the people who made R* great are gone, i tend to agree but it'll be unfair before seeing what the next GTA has to offer
    good content sir

    Warframe says "We can. And do. It's better with friends or others but we do scale the enemy counts DOWN to make it easier on you, by yourself."
    Edit:
    Warframe's Community is suprisingly friendly. Because it's NOT PVP. It's PVE or Players Vs Ai. And the Synergy of the Warframes makes things go from "Well. I am powerful" to "OMG! WE ARE GOD!"

    The only way I still play gta5 is modded for VR with an oculus and a trainer to spawn and mod online only vehicles- never been happier

      How does it work? Ive seen it before but im sure you dont have a full hand control on things. Now that would be incredible.

      @@ObviousMalcolm_PLUS you have to use a regular controller, I just use an Xbox 1 controller, but you have the same controls as you had prior to the VR mod.

    Great video. Red dead 2 is my favourite game ever and always loved GTA franchise then I started to play red dead online and GTA online.i liked red dead online but the amount of work rockstar put in it was laughable. New update where you have to hunt but also break animal spawns so you can’t. 9 months to fix. Blood money update. Just recycled old missions. Outlaw past which costs like 40 gold bars for you then to have to grind to get the stuff you’ve just paid for.
    Tried Gta online and honestly it became like a job. I found myself listening to podcast while I did some boring sell mission for the 100th time. I suddenly thought what the hell am I doing?! It’s hard to believe it’s the same company that made my favourite game ever!
