    Okay after watching this video, I figured out what the deal is with this game I don’t connect with: Netflix. They all wanna do their games now like it’s a Netflix show. Not just Rockstar, but all of the major companies.

    Graphically… it looks great. If what we’re seeing isn’t just all post-effects they slapped onto the video.

    The dudes voice I don’t like. Apparently I’m not the only person judging by some of the comments I’ve read heh. He just sounds like a doofus white guy. But an unfunny one at that! And they’re somehow making his voice sound Deeper? Like if 1990s, Point Break, Keanue had a deeper voice I guess is what they are going for? The problem like some others have pointed out is that the voice doesn’t match what we’re seeing as the Model.

    Eh. Anyways whatever. I’m old. I prefer the old school goofy cartoon GTAs over this Netflix Amazon Movie shit they put out now. I’m not big on Hyper Realism these days. Kind of over it really. That’s just me though.

          Well it’s releasing on the PS5 so it would be pretty dumb if it doesn’t actually work on the PS5. Anyway what the mostly showed was cut scenes and they are easy to optimize because anything that’s literally not on screen can just be unloaded.

            I remember when the very first teaser came out for this and people were going wild. I asked in a streamers chat (first mistake) if there was any actual in-game gameplay footage or it was just a CGI/cutscene and the streamer chewed me out lol. “Let people be excited about things!”

              To be clear there is a difference between pre-rendered cut scenes and in game cut scenes. I’m pretty sure everything we saw, and have seen so far, has all been in game cut scenes.

              But still I suspect that the game won’t be the same quality out of cutscenes as it is in cut scenes. Most games actually have two different character models depending on if you’re using it for gameplay or cut scenes, and it’s how GTA IV did it.
