Uh, it looks similar to GTA5 because it is the SEQUEL… The graphics and detail are amazing, GTA5 will probably feel like PS2 graphics when this is out.
Sure it’s just a trailer and no gameplay but if the trailer uses the games graphics engine this is incredibly impressive.
70€ for hundreds or thousands of hours of entertainment is a pretty damn good deal. Compare that to a ticket at the cinema for 2 hours.
I would not say its hundreds or thousands of hours? 30 hours max for GTA V for my "playthrough" and Online is not usable for coop or anything else then shitting on new users. But i was never a fan of GTA so you can be more hyped than me.
That is a ridiculous amount of time to put into a game. And completely impractical and shouldn't be considered a selling point. Thousands of hours probably but Jesus relax.
RDR2 is so massively detailed and open that frankly I think that game is worth HUNDREDS of hours of gameplay. Two years in and I’m still finding new things to do. I agree I didn’t spend that long with V outside of the main story given how little there is to do, but it’s safe to say they’re gonna take everything that was a masterpiece with RDR2 and just put it in GTA. That’s kind of why the hype is so large.
My biggest problem with RDR2 is how linear and on-rails it felt. Seemed like a ton of window dressing with very little to actually do outside of the main story and its big action set pieces. One of my biggest gaming disappointments. I really hope GTA VI puts more love into its open world this go around.
