Should GTA VI be set in the 80s

I hear a lot of people saying that Gta 6 needs to happen in the 80s for reasons like : there is more gangs, there is more crimes, it have a better atmosphere...etc... Nobody wants the game to be set at our time, but I feel that this isn’t a good idea because I would like to relate to it, and it wouldn’t be possible if it happen in the 80s

Thank you ! That’s what I was thinking, One of the reasons I enjoyed Gta 4 and Gta 5 is because both games happen in modern times, Gta is basically a criminal life simulator and for that It is better if it is at our era because we can relate.

I feel like most people want Gta 6 to happen in the 80s because of nostalgia, and that is just not good. We can’t relive nostalgia and that would just feel out of place...

In this poll slightly more people want the 80s than the modern day:

I think Gta 6 should stay in our time period, maybe make a nostalgia trilogy with 70s, 80s and 90s for the salty Vice City fanboys, but let’s keep up with 2020s, Maybe we can make it a 80/90s atmosphere, and still have it in modern times.

It's too early to tell what the 2020s will be like, the actual aesthetics and feel of the decade won't set in until three and a half to four years in, just like previous decades.

The PS5 is to be released late next year, and realistically I don't expect another GTA until 2023 - 2024 so who knows ....

If it is set in the 2020s it'll be interesting to see how they portray it to be, like, self-driving taxi rides, VR minigames, home assistant at your safehouse, doublespeak/throught crimes being the major theme in the talk radio stations, lots of muslim presence in the city with Radio Del Mundo making a major return, guns are extremely difficult to obtain (thanks democraps), references to cryptocurrency, agenda 2030 and NWO a major theme on talk stations .....

You know what, just give me 2005, onegaishimasu.

Look at this dude. On his profile, lists a game set in f*cking 1899 as his favorite by R* but says a game set a few decades ago he cannot relate to.

 

Are you serious?

as somebody else pointed out you liked San Andreas so clearly you can enjoy games set in the past. did you enjoy games like Assassin's Creed, RDR or idk Saurian? i bet it's kinda hard to relate to a velociraptor but that doesn't make the game any less fun to play 😁

Maybe I like Gta San Andreas, but that was not only because San Andreas was in the 90s, it was mostly because of the story, the characters and the game fonctionalities, but whatever...

 

Also I heard most people say they want 80s Vice City for Gta 6...

This would be the 4th time Vice City is set in the past : one time in the 90s, two times in the 80s. HD Universe have done Modern times Liberty City and Los Santos, so i am sure that if they were to make Vice City next, they would first make it in modern era, so we can see the difference, then after Rockstar Games stop making any gta games in the modern times and focus on only making Gta a 70s, 80s and 90s crime series from now on.

a lot of people want VC in the 80s which is fine. i wouldn't mind it. i'm more interested in seeing Las Venturas/SanFierro in the 70s though

Yeah... I heard a lot about the 70s.... what happen at that time period ?

Well anyway let me ask you a kick question ?

 

If when the next Gta game come out, it is set at Vice City and it’s not set in the 80s or 90s, do you think most people will be mad/disappointed ?

Since you've posted in the existing 80s thread, I'll close this so the discussion isn't split.

 

Thanks!
