Rockstar Games Plans Age Verification For GTA Online
-
GTA online is the worst thing to happen to the series, since it killed off story DLCs. Which were a fantastic way to get new story based content for their games between the years long wait between sequels. Damn those gamers and their obsession with buying microtransactions.
Then they double killed it when they started introducing nonsense like flying cars with rocket launchers.

On the flip side, it's given it insane longevity and made it feel more modern. Playing singleplayer feels so annoying at times because of their arbitrary rules (which are still in online, but toned down a little) and gameplay/mission design.
At least GTAO showed everyone rockstar's true nature, and you couldn't turn away or say that it's a small alternative game mode.
So shoutout to online and 5 as a whole for showing me enough to avoid all future rockstar titles lolGTA5 was released in 2013. GTA6 is being released 13 years later. If there had been no GTAO, we would have had at least one or two more "modern" GTA releases in that window.

I don’t understand why people needed to give them constant money. For real, I played for a minute but never spent a dime. Why buy things when you can achieve them?

Isn't GTAV an 18 rated game? So children shouldn't be able to buy it in the first place.

Because it's extremely annoying to earn enough money. Payouts are pathetic and things are extremely expensive to push you towards buying money. I didn't spend any money on it thankfully, that's just my reasoning behind it.

Don't forget when they triple killed it by not enabling Proton support.

I wouldn't be so sure. Modern AAA games are insanely big and resource-intensive. Just look at rdr2

This falls on the parents instead because of dumb laws every one has to deal with this, I just hope that not all countries are this insane:
users in the UK have had to take photos of themselves and upload it to a service that uses AI to guess their age. Or, send in photos of ID such as passports or driving licenses.

We would have had story DLC like Ballad of Gay Tony and the Lost and the Damned GTA IV got as well as Undead Nightmare for Red Dead Redemption.

People are really weird. Stuff like that makes me not play, but for most it makes them spend. I find those consumers bizarre as hell, but they are the mainstream consumer so we are the weird ones.

This is definitely the way I feel. Even if I really want to do something, if I find out they’re doing this to squeeze me or they’re putting some wild shit in the privacy policy, I just don’t engage with their shit. Fuck those companies. I’m more angry with capitalism than I am susceptible to the desire they try to garner

It was great the first couple years when people were just throwing piles of in game money around so everyone could play with all the flashy things. After they cinched up every money glitch and started pushing shark cards…online instantly lost any appeal. As you said, grinding for things in game is purposefully tedious and geared to make you spend more money.

Can you even call it GTA online if there aren't a dozen 12 year olds running around screaming, "N***** and F*****".

Maybe I'm dating myself but this is the same company that released state of emergency for the PS2? That game you could literally mow down people in a mall with a mini gun?
They were worried about "the children?" News to me.
