Having purchased the „original“ crappy and bugged version a couple of years ago I guess I’m screwed. Because GOG is not offering any upgrade path to their now oh so great “Ultimate edition” - it’s €53.59 please or even €79.99 if you decide to buy later. Well thanks CDPR/GOG, lesson learned.

Honestly, I think this may be the most hipsterish thread I've ever seen. Yeah, game's sold over 180M copies, but everybody hated it and it's awful. I too am genuinely looking forward to GTA VI, and those of you who aren't, I encourage you continue to live your worst lives, 'cause apparently you are so anti-fun that you have to be first to espouse how you never liked fun, how it was never fun, how no one sane/smart could possibly find it fun, and that anyone who finds it fun is "lame."
"Their first album is much better than their first album."
Counterpoint:
Many posts in this thread, including yours, read like "Stop not liking what I like!" The funny thing is that posts saying "I didn't like GTA <insert number>" don't insult those people who do like GTA <insert number here>. They describe what they didn't like about the game and stop there.

I was going to say that I found GTA V fun and that I am looking forward to 6 but that's obviously not what this thread is for.

Of all the dev's talking about BG3, Josh Sawyer comes sort of dickish putting down BG3 about interface, etc.
May be right but the game came out in a good state not 3 weeks ago, and is being patched and fixed famously even as the date of launching on consoles approaches.
What about Sawyer's own Pentiment, PoE (the unnecessarily looong texts on everyone to get valuable info -or get none at all- !), Alpha Protocol interfaces, all fixed yet ?.

Actual gameplay shown? Zero.
Interest level? Mild at best.
Call me when I can see how your game games rather than concept art and CGI cinematics.
I know that reading is overrated but it literally states in the three liner newsbit that this is just a teaser and that Ubi will be showing off the game properly including gameplay tomorrow (now today) at their Forward event. So, here's your call bruh.
I will definitely be playing this game at some point but it will be after the last bit of content and after the final patch has been released when there is a complete edition on sale for €29 or thereabouts. You can call me when that happens...

Without the bro culture, it’s just another shooter with vehicles.
Sad is the day that GTA goes woke.
F
You conservatives are so pathetic. "Woke" used to mean intelligent and aware of what's going on.
And shoving it in everyone's faces.
☝️You forgot that last part, which is the crux of it.
There really aren't that many people -- relatively speaking -- in our society that are against what woke stands for. It's the shoving down our throat part -- the preaching; lecture almost -- that some people can't stand. Myself included.

I'm not a Disney/Star Wars guy so I know I won't be purchasing these three games for sure
So you'll intentionally avoid good games because you're not a fan of the IP? That's a strange hill to die on.
What's strange is telling someone else they should be playing games from IP's they don't enjoy because you think they're good games.

The vaccination rate in Romania is around 28%. Bucharest now has a curfew at night, masks required, proof of vaccination or negative test required to visit a restaurant. I wonder what Valve thought the situation would be like. I think they announced it in July this year?

I've been hammered quite a bit for this view, but why does Apple (Google, Microsoft, Steam, name your leach here) deserve 30% of anything for products they don't produce?
The infrastructure argument is swiss cheese also, because if you need 30% to keep yourself afloat, you're doing something very wrong.

Why "Suns" and not "Sons", like they were in the comics?
That's what I was thinking. I mean I'm a bit out of touch with Marvel since they did their reboot... but is that Ghost Rider? Also I see Wolverine and Captain Marvel also in the game..... um..... why besides to sell more units?
I'd just like a straight up Marvel Universe game in the style of XCOM 2. You could DLC the shit out of it with different super hero groups and stories.

This is a different tone compared to their aggressive response yesterday:The DFEH includes distorted, and in many cases false, descriptions of Blizzard’s past. We have been extremely cooperative with the DFEH throughout their investigation, including providing them with extensive data and ample documentation, but they refused to inform us what issues they perceived. They were required by law to adequately investigate and to have good faith discussions with us to better understand and to resolve any claims or concerns before going to litigation, but they failed to do so. Instead, they rushed to file an inaccurate complaint, as we will demonstrate in court. We are sickened by the reprehensible conduct of the DFEH to drag into the complaint the tragic suicide of an employee whose passing has no bearing whatsoever on this case and with no regard for her grieving family. While we find this behavior to be disgraceful and unprofessional, it is unfortunately an example of how they have conducted themselves throughout the course of their investigation. It is this type of irresponsible behavior from unaccountable State bureaucrats that are driving many of the State’s best businesses out of California.
They're not entirely wrong. California is a gong show these days. Homelessness and poverty run amok, rampant legal crime, etc. Businesses and people are leaving.

I've held off this long, I can wait a few more years for all the bug fixes and DLC before I pick it up.
Same here. I stopped supporting their Early Access business model after The Witcher 2. They pulled off the Enhanced Edition trick twice with The Witcher and The Witcher 2. Thanks but no thanks. I bought TW3 GOTY on sale and I will do the same with Cyberpunk 2077 once all expansions and patches have been released. I do not wish to support this patching marathon business model. I would prefer a feature and content complete game on release. Bugfree is a pipe dream because of the complexity of modern video games but feature and content complete is a buy or no buy criteria for me.
