This is probably correct, but I think it's fair to say that there is a difference between the corporate structure of both Take2 and Rockstar and the devs working on the games, as well as the writers, artists, and other content creators. I think in any capitalistic society, where creativity is monetized, there is always going to be an inherent conflict between the creative people and the bean counters. Creativity unfortunately often has to yield to profit. The question really comes down to whether innovation and aesthetics and quality is so stifled by corporate interests that the product can then be argued to be generic. I don't know if this is the case with Rockstar and Take2. I think that they may be further down that path than we would all like them to be, using GTAO and the holdout for SP content as an example. But as someone who is totally addicted to GTAO, for better or for worse, I can tell you that regardless of the myriad of problems GTAO faces, it is still some unbelievably rich, creative, and excellent content and updates to a 7 year old game. So I think that as bad as things are, and I will totally agree with many, if not all the complaints about this new Trilogy iteration in the B&M thread, Rockstar still produces quality products, second to none in terms of the gaming market. Rage all you want about GTAO, and I can say plenty, but it really is some excellent quality. What about RDR2? I personally hated the game for a myriad of reasons, and didn't get past a very short play time, but even I have to say that the game is of absolutely incredible quality, with visuals and scenery that is...breathtaking, if I'm completely honest. So, by all means, hammer Rockstar and Take2 for many reasons, not the least of which being their feckless, corporate thuggery, particularly going after modders, who aren't making a penny on their stellar work.

 

But my only objection to hammering the devs, rather than the corporate structure of both Take2 or Rockstar is that, at the end of the day, the devs are the creative ones. They are the ones that want to make the games as amazing as possible, because they are all gamers themselves. If you are a dev or even a project manager, you may have to bend your will to your corporate overlords, lest you lose that awesome job at arguably the most prestigious developing house in gaming. You're not wrong in what you're saying, but I have always wondered what a huge gaming company like Rockstar would be capable of producing if ALL they cared about was quality, and the devs were given the luxury of autonomy to create whatever they want, which I just bet would be a lot closer to what we want, than what the bean counters want.

Thats quite an insight, I'm not blaming the developers themselves individually though, what I'm trying to say is that if Rockstar Games wasn't under Take-Two's wings, they probably would act more or less the same way as they do now.

That's cool and all but there's one thing that will completely annihilate your argument: furry p0rn artists

No leak yet

No banana we get

How rockstar hides it to this day?

Means release far away

 

[RedDagger]

If past expectations have taught me anything, all this hype piling onto Friday is a clear indication that nothing will happen on Friday

 

that's right I'm shorting the expectations market babyyyyy

 Mister NightDive Studios dev say's prepare for disappointment, because they haven't shown off anything yet. So now because they haven't shown anything yet it will look like ps2   

 

I just want him to have his foot in his mouth moment. 

Im saying all the time, people have very high expectations without anything backing them.

 

All rumours, leaks are pointing towards low key remaster compared to sky high expectations.

 

 

I waiting for massive dissapointment for many fans here...

 

I get downvoted for supposed leak from reddit, is probably bad because sounds realistic ?

Some y’all are miserable. My expectations, hopes and excitement are through the roof. Haven’t been this hyped since Red Dead Redemption 2’s launch back in 2018. Rockstar is using Unreal Engine and so far the leaks indicates it’s going to be a good remaster.

just imagine the pure carnage that would occur within this thread if that were to happen!

 

[SoulStorm64]

Honestly it's pretty easy to piece together what the remasters will be by the leaks that have been going on for well over a year now. if you take everything from the reputable sources and put modern standards of what a remaster is, mainly from the Tony Hawk 1+2 remaster is a good indicator of what will happen. again, this isn't some run of the mill company. if Activision can put the amount of effort they do in their remasters for 40 dollars. Rockstar is not one to take lightly when it comes to in house development vs outsourcing products.

That's why I sit on the fence. I listen to the over- positive and the over-negative people and find my expectations somewhere in the middle. Feels like a good place to be before the reveal!

I agree...seems like we cannot be hyped and with high expectations (mostly Debbie downers and nonbelievers in denial)

I agree. I just wanted to make sure we were talking about the same thing.

as are mine. i tried to keep them down but after the file size leaks and the blurb that @alloc8or provided, i can't see this as being anything short of amazing. i'm also very excited to hear trailer guy say "Grand Theft Auto" again after all this time

Anyone surprised that MVG would be against a remaster of these games either way? Lol. As a reverse engineer himself he's spoken many times in favour of modding and against remasters, he doesn't really know anything, he just has low expectations, and sure, that's up to him.

You know what's funny? He literally worked on a Quake port for the Xbox. WORKED. Not just ported, he was hired.

There could be some garmonbozia very soon.

[Valiant ENT CEO]

Can someone please tell me games that are in "Unreal Engine" that have motorcycles / helicopters? I need to see for stunting purposes. 

 

Edit: Or just cars in general.
