I assume that Red Dead Redemption 2 will feature a single protagonist. I could be wrong though.

it means they'd rather a shit story with one protagonist instead of a hippo-shit story with three.

they want one tight narrative instead of multiple fragmented (shit) ones

honestly disapppointed the protagonist isnt a POC

they mean they think there's no reason to repeat the 3 protags experiment and they're going back to something that works in the context of the story they want to tell and gameplay they want to provide.

It means they're aware that multiple protags was one of the worst aspects of GTA V. Glad they're not going with that design again.

>Rockstar
>implying they'd give us a shit story

>1 protag
what do you think is gonna happen when Arthur Morgan inevitably dies? John Marston is going to be the protag from then on.

Can't really get fully emotionally attached if you have to share the experience troughs the eyes of 3 characters.
They are obviously going with muh feels just like with RDR.

rdr2 should start with a bar brawl while piano the man chips away

Am I the only one that liked the 3 protagonists in GTA V?

why does Rockstar literally never give interviews or talk to anyone?

They spend 5 years closed, release a trailer every 8 months and then the game releases and they only show up to accept awards at cerimonies.

It'd be cool if they did something bold like this. Except in the middle of the game and not the end like RDR.

That's probably why they're the most dick-sucked developer. They're very different from the big developers like EA and Activision that release a shit ton of information.

So kinda like when you play as that loli in Last of Us during the winter?

To be honest I like it. It's a way to keep them neutral I guess. Better they stay quiet and just focus on making games than say "We're going for diversity", "games need more cutscenes", "gameplay is boring" once in a while.
More devs should follow Rockstar's example.

Yes

I prefer the way they do it now. Who gives a fuck about bullshit interviews and paid articles? All I care about is if the game is good.

fuck you

I didn't watch Last of Us so I wouldn't know.

They're the literal rock stars of gaming. They don't need to give a single shit about the shit mortals need to concern themselves with.

I prefer this. I hated having to switch between characters in GTAV.

The discontinuity between your skill sets rubs my autism the wrong way. I like developing one character.

Did anyone else get a weird cheap CGI vibe from all the human characters in that trailer? I hope the final game doesn't look like that.

they already did. it's called gta 5.

I wasn't even talking about the "social
issues of gaming" such as them throwing Polygon a bone by talking about how people of color are opposed by white developers. I just meant in terms of them just talking about their new game. I think I've only read one interview from Dan Houser, and it was like a 3 page Game Informer interview. It was probably around the release of GTA 4 or RDR.

we pretty much narrowed it down to you

>opposed
I meant oppressed, oh well..

Watch the Digital Foundry video on it. They bring up how realistic they got the face mapping this time. They talk about in one scene after Morgan talks, his eyes twitch. Looked like an actual villian due to that. Could get pretty uncanny if they get that realistic.

Why would they need to? Their audience is way too big, if they decided to make interviews and release info it will probably only reach 10% of the players, maybe less. The only thing they need to do to hype their game is marketing and paid reviews.

You're a stupid nigger if you think one protagonist is better than 3.

I agree. Everyone lost their shit when they posted that teaser image. Honestly, they probably could've just released a trailer with the a black screen and the name of the title and it would've racked up 40 million views in the first 3 days.

Game Informer had one of those big, 10 page features before the release of GTA V.

Yeah. But I don't remember there being a huge interview. Also, most of the features they talked about in Game Informer were already previously known irrc.

This game is going to suck. GTA V was the Pinnacle of storytelling for Rockstar. Arthur Morgan will not even be close to the greatest Rockstar character of all time: Trevor Phillips.

I agree, Trevor was probably one of the greatest video game characters of all time. I don't know how Rockstar did it, but he's definitely one of the best written characters in any medium. Going to be hard to top this Trevor...

theres a second protagonist after you complete the game

>white male protagonist
dropped

Trevor.......just LMAO. They ****ing nailed it with Trevor!

His spawn ins are some of the most hilarious things I've ever seen. Some of the funniest ones I've seen were:

- Spawning in wearing a pink dress and getting kicked out of a strip club, and yelling back at the bouncers stuff such as it's not my fault I was better than the chicks

- Chasing after a hobo telling him he was going to get the best deal of his life if he paid Trevor five dollars for a handjob

- Spawning at a fountain throwing up saying, "I'll never eat Indians again!"

- Spawning in his underwear on a balcony piss drunk

Rockstar, fantastic job with Trevor. I will be royally shocked if he doesn't win a character of the year award at a video game awards show. Because like I said before, Michael and Franklin are cool characters as well, but when playing as Trevor......ANYTHING goes.

>false flagging
>not even false flagging really, more like false false flagging
Fuck you. Also nice get.

Trevor is the best not because of how goofy and epic he is, but because how deep

Go forth and hug trevor

>unlikable face
>unlikable voice acting

What did they mean by this?

it's an intentional marketing ploy

>wow so ruhndom
>much Sup Forums character
>Sup Forums just for the sake of it
>such nihilism
>many beer and drugs

Josh Brolin is a dime piece, shut the fuck up you low testosterone trap loving cunt.

He's the best written character in any Grand Theft Auto though. He's completely unpredictable, just like the people that play the games. He's a loose cannon, just like you when you roam the streets of Los Santos. I don't get why you don't like his "random" side. And he is hardly edgy.

This is an alternate dimension, right? Or satire? It's a joke? Or trolling? Please, please let it be one of those.

Trevor is the game's plot device. He does things that don't make much sense because it helps tie up loose ends in an easy way.

Sorry, GTA V was a good game but its story to me does not hold up and Trevor feels way too convenient at certain points for the game's plot, but at the same time that plot manages to do nothing with Franklin. Feels like Michael was the only fleshed out character

>trolling only happens when others engage in a thoughtful conversation with opinions I disagree with

Trevor is literally the best Rockstar character. And that's a hard task to do (considering other greats like CJ and Franklin imo).

...

Fuck you asshole. GTA V's story is one of the best of this generation. Trevor is the best written charcoal in GTA V. He's not a plot piece because Rockstar has the best stories in media today. They don't need to use cheap plot points or using characters as plot points cause the story was literally Perfect. There were no plot holes or anything like that.
I can link you my story analysis and Trevor/Franklin analysis to further prove you wrong.

>provides no counter-argument, so I'm just going to post a picture of racist White bigot.

That's how I know you're a newfag.

GTAV's first trailer only featured Michael. Just saying.

Well. It featured one of the worst written characters of any GTA. Then the next reveal showed one of the best characters in all of gaming: Trevor Phillips.
Just saying

calling it. he's gay.

I'd dick him down in a heartbeat though.

You wish, Marstonfag.
Get used to watching Morgan, Dutch, Bill and Javier running a train on your waifu.

Missed the point. Must be all that nihilism.

On whose behalf?

Kek , Marston was one of the worst written Rockstar characters. Fuck him in hell along with his heathen whore cunt.

>On whose behalf?
What did he mean by this??

How did I miss the point? All I did was identify a shitty character, and then identify a well written, and well thought out character.

and 3
and san andreas
and Max payne 3
and redemption
and redemption zombies

SPECIALY REDEMPTION ZOMBIES

The point was that Rockstar has only revealed one (presumed) playable character. Since GTAV's reveal had only Michael at first and ended up with 3 playable characters instead, the same case might be for RDR2. I'm glad you're at least able to identify characters even if inferring intended meanings is still not a concept you're capable of. You're getting there.

Redemption was a nice story. San Andreas was the best honestlyyy. CJ is up there with Trevor Phillips

Fuck off faggot. Trevor is the best character, you asshole.

Trevor was pretty funny, cj was funny here and there.

I'm hoping there's a good amount of Revolver porn in this game.

Nah, I preferred the old lady NPC and bodybuilder 3 instead.

Is Ellie considered a loli? Never even had that thought cross my mind. She doesn't act much like a kid

I don't know what that means, but fuck off brainlet.

Honestly disappointed the protagonist isn't a genderfluid bisexual vegan black womyn with bipolar.

BAKA Rockstar, just another rape simulator.

why his mouth so big lads

Oh she is alright... Look it up.

Trevor is the worse character i ever saw in any video game ever, dont insult CJ by comparing him to that garbage
CJ had a chracter other than LOL IM SO CRAZY

They want to focus on RDR Online so they can start getting out those OLD WEST HEISTS, HATS, EPIC MOUNTS, & BUFFALO BILLS!

In all seriousness, I hope the main campaign is tight. RDR's multiplayer was fun as fuck too, but I spent much more time in single-player.

Sucks knowing the physics from the original will never be matched.

Fuck off, Josh Brolin is a god.

GTA having three protagonist made development a mess

Franklin has so much cut content

>protag is a badass looking white dude

How are they getting away with this?

Same with the chick. I really don't like the faces. The graphics look pretty shitty, and this guy just looks way too clean cut otherwise.

Pretty much what this guy said
Rockstar is basically the definite kings of game development. They constantly trump sales, there games are played for years to come, they execute all of their projects near flawlessly, and they have a perfect track record. They have no need to try and market there game out of house. They're very self sufficient. Say what you want about R* but they can make a fucking game

Builds hype by maintaining mystery around the project. Pretty simple.

>I don't know what that means
Of course you wouldn't, you like Trevor after all.

They are hiding the others.
The native american and the girl.

But Trevor objectively isn't that.. just because you're a retarded brainlet doesn't mean Trevor isn't a good character

I'm actually looking forward to see what they do in RDR Online. Obviously they can't do the same as GTA Online. That game was driven by buying expensive cars, houses, planes, and other shit. In RDR all you really need is horses and guns, so maybe it will be more focused on missions and activities.

>brown hair
>grey eyes

yeah...."white"

The pyshcics in GTA V are better though?

You have so much cut content. Franklin was second best after Trevor.

you'll be able to buy bison, buffalo, elk/deer/moose, cougar/bobcat, bear, fucking unicycles

they can still sell mansions and joke newfangled gliding machines

Since you asked, fuck no they are not.

Fuck that's hot. Makes her porn 10x better. How come there isn't more porn? There's Inner Demons, and that's about it.

>White skin
>Lives in America
"B-B-B-BUT HE'S NOT NORDIC MASTER RACE S-SO HE'S NOT REALLY WHITE!!!!!"

...

Fuck off, kike

lol

Are you dumb user? Trevor is a personification of what people think of GTA. He's dirty, drug addicted, anger issued, psychopathic murder, and he believes the world is out to get him and that lizard people run the world. He's a joke about the violence in the game industry.

Oh okay, you're attacking my gender identity because I like a certain character. Very Sup Forums of you

What's it like being retarded?

looks like a red faction character
