GTA 6 Footage Appears To Leak Online, 90 Different Videos

I have 2 wants from this game -

1) Please have a single player campaign and not be multiplayer only

2) Please don't pander the game to the woke crowd. GTA is controversial and badass, please don't change that

Just looks Like GTA 5 to me.

@Dsswoosh I agree

This means that someone at Rockstar is s traitor...

@Kaloudz Almost all leaks are planned leaks as part of marketing campaigns. They are probably loving the publicity right now.

Looks too much like LA still. I’m not getting much of a Vice City vibe from this (I know it’s unfinished but what have they been working on all these years since GTAV launched?)

It would have been better if this was set in the ‘80s like the original VC.

Still 2-3 years away so doesn't matter

@BulkSlash I 'm not sure its possible for Vice City to have a "Vice City vibe" if it's not set in the 80s.

@BBB I don't think the setting will change atleast so that's pretty much confirmed to be vice city now

@abe_hikura was Miami completely different in the 80's or something

@Would_you_kindly Very. They’re worlds apart — even 10 years ago was different. Heck, all of Florida was.

I live on the Gulf Coast side but have been to Miami; this all looks and feels very accurate for the city and state.

Wonder how long before the video(s) are taken down.

@EvenStephen7 never been to America so I wouldn't know but I wouldn't have thought it would've been vastly different

@BBB Yeah but there’re certain things we’re learning from the leaks, for instance getting to know the 2 protagonists and VICE CITY IS BACK BABY!

@Dsswoosh what is your definition of woke?

Are those decently sized hills in the background beginning at about the 2:38 mark in the top video?

Being from a mountainous state (full of climbers), the more snobby residents used to rip on Florida by saying Disney World's Space Mountain was the highest peak in all of Florida (it's not...Britton Hill is Florida's highest natural point at 345-ft above sea level).

Still, being someone who notices these things, it felt like they were still in Los Santos once the character exited the diner and you got glimpses of the horizon.

Regardless, my two cents are that I'm excited to return to Vice City, and I concur with other commenters that I hope there's a robust single player campaign.

@HKK24 Using non-political platforms to push political agenda, specifically in the direction of identity politics.

That is my definition of woke.

@Dsswoosh So this is automatically woke since it has a female latina playable character no matter how it's written? Do you consider Bayonetta and Nier: automata woke games?

If they announce a Static Shock game is that instantly woke? was Prototype 2 woke and we didn't even know it!? Not trolling I'm legitimately curious what gets instantly labeled as woke 🤔

What’s been going on over the last three days
I have to report good news as well.
Series x have started selling again at my 9 local stores, 3 stores now sold out?
I know there is no PS5 but that doesn’t normally effect things. Maybe the PS5 price increase?
I’m just not sure.
But fair play Xbox.

@Juanalf Incorrect. The colour, sex or sexual orientation of the lead isn't indicative of being woke.

So having a female latina lead isn't woke.

What would be woke however is taking an existing game that had an original lead character, changing the race, sex, or sexual orientation of that character and using that as a platform with the specific purpose of pushing identity politics to the audience.

An example would be making a new film based on the life of Ghandi and having the lead role be played by a female latino to specifically push out the message that female latino's can be empowered and play the role of Ghandi if they wanted to.

That is woke.

Take the new Little Mermaid film. Replacing Ariel with a black actress with design to empower little black girls is being woke. It is using the little mermaid as a political platform that plays identity politics to push out a political statement.

Had a new black mermaid film be created with a new black lead and not something that had replaced the original Ariel, that would not be woke, it would simply be a story of a mermaid that happened to be black.

@Dsswoosh just commenting because I thought this was a great reply and explanation

Good for rockstar that teaches them to not share anything with the fans or share any news about the game i hope
That they have learn from there mistakes im okay with that it got leaked now we know how far the game in development is rn.

Im also okay with waiting for the game looks really awesome from what i saw

This is definitely 100% legit if Rockstar is trying this hard to remove the videos.

That said this is the internet, so the videos will last forever.

Welp we won't see this game until 2025 + or ever if the source code gets leaked. We won't be seeing anything for even longer now.

I laugh. After what they did with single-player DLC in GTAV and then taking so long to make the next game in the series to milk the GTA Online stuff they deserve a little bit of pain.

@Dsswoosh Exactly. Like the movie They Live, all they want to do is sell you something.

@Dsswoosh your first example sounds exactly what Rockstar would put into their world to critic the diversification of roles.

However there’s a big difference in replacing an existing living person with some of a different gender, race and ethnicity versus replacing a fictional character. Even if that fictional character were used to is decades old and feels like the defection representation.

I think it’s particularly dangerous to lock in a fictional character’s identity just because that’s the way it’s always been. There is no reason why we can’t have a black little mermaid. Folks want a white mermaid because what they’re used to and honestly there’s nothing wrong in that. Why not stick with the representation they know? I’m completely fine with little mermaid change personally.

I know Ariel’s ethnicity matters to a lot of people on both sides of the discussion but let’s not pretend it’s woke to make this change.

I certainly hope we can live in a less rigid world. Where if the character’s identity has never mattered the representation is free to be whatever the creative team decides to make it.

@Dsswoosh None of what you describe is actually 'woke'. What you have described would fall into the bigots and racists belief of what 'woke' is. It's misappropriation, and/or misunderstanding, of the word as the dictionary definition of 'woke' actually means to 'be alert to injustice in society, especially racism'. The extreme right wing loves that the masses are now using the word as a negative, when in fact being 'woke', as in the dictionary definition, cannot possibly be considered a negative if you're a decent human being. I am not however suggesting that you are a racist, bigot or are extreme right wing in any way. I'm only suggesting that misusing, or using the word without understanding what it really means, only serves the agenda of the most hateful despicable people in society.

Hope this doesn’t hold back GTA 6 because we have been waiting long enough already for this. Be interesting to see what happens next though.

@LoquaciousB I utterly disagree with you.

It's entirely possible to disagree with the use of identity politics without being a racist.

I personally believe identity politics serves to further segregate society. In its current form i accuse it of teaching non-white people to hate white people and falsely accuse them of being racist (which is what you just did).

Altering the physical appearance of an existing character to empower a demograph purely based on race is a CAUSE of segregating members of society from each other.

It teaches people to hate one and other.

Looks like *****

@Dsswoosh You evidently missed the part of my post where I said I was not suggesting you are a racist or a bigot.

The point of my post is that you are misusing the word, either it's deliberately misusing it or it's a misunderstanding of the real meaning of it. Just because you want 'woke' to mean what you perceive it to mean, doesn't mean it does.

I personally don't give two hoots whether a black person, Latino person, Asian person, white person or a green Martian plays any role because colour is only skin deep. It's only the people who actually take issue with it that are the ones that are promoting this faux-segregation of society. What should the colour of someone's skin matter as long as their performance is good? It is all art after all, which by its very nature is an artist's interpretation of the subject matter. You have the right, of course, to dislike their art for whatever reason you choose but, you don't have the right to assume the artist producing the work has chosen their direction simply to pander to minorities because only the actual artist knows their reasons. It's either ignorance or arrogance to assume you know their reasons.

Identity politics is the ugly fabrication and delusion of insecure racist white people who only promote equality as long as they're more equal than those that are different to them. I do not judge anyone based on the colour of their skin, I judge them based on whether they're an ar*ehole. I also do not hate my own race (white northern European) simply because of the actions and/or ignorant views some of them may hold.

@Dsswoosh wtf is the ‘woke’ crowd? Wanting representation in games? Bet you’d lose your mind if it’s a female lead.

Schreier is just upset he wasn't the one to be able to leak it. So now, a guy who literally makes his living off of leaking game info is talking up how bad it is for the devs when leaks come out... Oh please...

@Dsswoosh hmmmmm so any games you can point to as woke for us?

@Dsswoosh This definition would completely fly in the face of both the woke and anti-woke definitions.

Woke has been attached to brand new IPs and entries that didn't replace characters with a more diverse cast and it has been attached to GTA 6 just for having a female Latino lead.

You can't be the create your own definition outside of its usage. This definition seems to be cobbled together just to walk the line.

Also @dsswoosh, what’s wrong with Ariel being played by a black actress to empower little black girls? Jesus has been played by a white actor for a couple thousand years now…… 🫣
