Rumors are that they want to charge $100 and they're sitting back to see the financial climate with the price increases to see if consumers will bend over and take it without any pushback
Or...switch 2 version taking longer than Expected..
OR. they're seeing the writing on the wall for the console industry and they're going to release VI for all platforms (PC included) next year
I will wait till it's $50
I'll wait till it's $10
I’ll watch other people play it on YouTube for free
Without their narration and reaction
I'll wait till it's free on epic
I'll sail the high seas
Guarantee it will have Denuvo and Rockstar DRM
Most likely will get cracked pretty quick
Denuvo??
Is there another cracker in the universe besides bat shit crazy Empress?
Who the fuck knows at this point, but GTA 6 will be such a hyped up game, that I think somehow we'll get it.
Maybe people will bribe Empress or something.
PC version at $50
Speaking out of my ass, I think the majority will take it without pushback.
I'm sure there's a swath of people with a console just play the yearly COD/FIFA, eagerly waiting for GTA 6 to drop. They'll buy it without blinking.
$100 minimum.
My guess would be they'll do some kind of tiered release strucructure, and/or have already finished or mostly finished 2 years+ worth of major updates, including new 'chapters' of the main single player story... and basically, you'll have to subscribe.
Like ... $160 for whole game, major expansion 1, 2 and 3, $120 for game + 1st expansion... Or your baseline $100, and then a subscription battlepass mmo monthly charge, or you can pay more for expansions in chunks, seperately.
Something like that.
switch 2 version assumption here? weird
