looks good but i'm not buying it lol
stupid penalty for making me wait for PC release is that i will steal the game

Copies of copyrighted works cannot be regarded as "stolen property" for the purposes of a prosecution under the National Stolen Property Act of 1934.
Piracy isn't stealing.
Then it isn't piracy right? It's just downloading software
That's right.
But that means that poor people get to enjoy things too? Do price tags mean nothing to you?! Soon they’ll think they can do other things like politics and law, will anyone think of the nepo-babies?
Someone named rabber could be talking about more dire measures than piracy when referring to stealing. Never know.
I wonder what the DRM situation will be like.
Will they have some hopped up version of Arxan that's gonna be super hard to crack?
Or is the PC Release delay good enough that they aren't particularly worried about piracy?
Of course given the popularity and antecipation I'm sure there will be all forms of groups trying to take a stab at it, but I still wonder how it'll go down.
The game won't run without an armed agent pointing a gun at your head who will pull the trigger if you ever start enjoying it the wrong way.

GTA IV was the last one I've ever owned. Been tempted by 5:00 a few times but I have got enough games that I'll never play. I don't need it as well.
It's worth it just for the single player story. I've never been interested in their online crap
From the clip GTA6 feels like Reacher, the video game.
Epic Games gave it away for free a few times, that's how I have it
Yeah, but then you have to use the EGS and shudders
Use Heroic instead.
Idk if they changed it, but running the exe worked just fine awhile ago. I
No worse than steam
Is that you Tim?
What a terrible take. EGS itself is still missing so many features compared to Steam, and even though Valve is far from perfect, they are significantly less predatory than Epic.
That might be the only way I would get it. But somehow I've missed all those LOL.
Pretty much. Steal it now and buy it in a few years during a holiday sale for 20 bucks.
After all the shit rockstar games are doing, why would you still pay them?
