Today, we are proud to announce that Cfx.re — the team behind the biggest Rockstar roleplay and creator communities, FiveM and RedM — are now officially a part of Rockstar Games.
There’s a reason I’m not looking forward to Grand Theft Auto VI.
GTA5 has been out for an entire decade now and has been re-released across three generations of systems. The only post-release content released for it has been to the online mode, and GTA Online is about as pay-to-win as it gets.
Bethesda have pulled similar shit over the years with Skyrim, but the difference is that Skyrim is a largely single player experience without pay-to-win DLC. Also, Bethesda have overwhelmingly embraced the modding community whereas Rockstar and Take Two Interactive have sicced their lawyers and private investigators upon any third-party mod creator in a litigious dick-waving contest that would even put the likes of Nintendo and Disney to shame.
Rockstar have also proven themselves incapable of releasing new games, with the exception of Red Dead Redemption 2, which also never saw any further DLC updates and tried to have its microtransaction-heavy online multiplayer pushed in similar fashion.
The only reason Grand Theft Auto has seen a meteoric level of success is because a lot of people (especially in Britain and the USA) have incredibly poor taste in video games and only care if their console can play the latest FIFA/Madden, Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto.
