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.

    Do people really expect it to be anything other than just more GTA? The bar doesn’t seem to be set that high.

      The problem is what the “just more GTA” is.

      If you are going by titles, GTA 6 is expected to have a reasonably deep single player storyline filled with cultural references. This is what everyone is hoping for.

      If you are going by developer output, GTA 6 is expected to be a mainly online Skinner Box with a shiny new engine to replace the decade old current engine. This is not what people are hoping for.

      “just GTA” usually meant setting a standard in the sand box - open world genre. Rockstar are the best at doing that.
