So is anyone actually planning on 'buying' GTA V?

[Lethn]

So it's 4 days until the release date for Grand Theft Auto V PC, does anyone here actually plan on buying it? I don't know about you, but I think Rockstar have been getting incredibly arrogant lately about their treatment of PC players lately, there have been companies that have a rabid view of internet filesharing to the point that they're going entirely on consoles and I really wish now that Rockstar would fuck off and do the same. I'm obviously quite biased in this but I've been incredibly annoyed ever since games companies have essentially begun a backhanded war against PC gamers using tools like DRM to try and force people into accepting that their shitty systems are the way of the future ( Don't get me started on the Steam OS that Valve are pushing guys ) they really don't like people who would otherwise be supporting them if it weren't for their draconian methods.

Now it seems that they're resorting to even more underhanded tactics like pushing the PC release dates back for games or shoving even more DRM onto these games to the point that it breaks the game for players who actually paid for the games. I think my money is always definitely better spent on indie titles than dealing with these crappy companies anymore even if their games happen to be well made, though most times they are not, just because they're so expensive and for the price of a game made by a publisher or big company you can get 4 or 5 indie titles depending what you want.

Are you going to be "buying" it?

[Lethn]

No, what do you think?

[kevindurant]

Of course I will. I played in PS4 it's amazing.

I purchased it on the ps4, I don't see any reason why I would need it on the PC now. The mods are obviously good, but I wouldn't buy it just for the base game.

[Rmcdermott927]

Definitely.  I still haven't played the console version but the reviews are good. 

[DarkHyudrA]

It's a good game but I don't feel a real need to buy and play it.
There are other things that got my attention now(the last expansion on Starcraft2; soon Elsword, a shitty game that I don't know why I still play, will receive more updates and new max lvl; Killing Floor 2)

No i will not buy but download it with torrents. there are already gta 5 torrents but without any crack. i will wait for crack.

[kolloh]

I'm waiting to see the reviews and ensure its not a poor port. Assuming the gameplay is smooth, I will likely purchase it. Of course, trying to get it on discount if possible.

That's only at the beginning, after awhile they get very stable, wait two or so days after the release date before downloading, to play it safe wait for a week, pirates have been getting very good at cracking even the most rabid DRM, denuvo was a recent one and it was made by the same guys who made SecuROM. Even though it was tough, they managed to get through it after a week or so and it ran absolutely fine, it was pretty funny, because the media were boasting about how pirates hadn't cracked it yet, naturally, that smugness didn't last long .

Modders always bring games to their full potential. Developers only hurt themselves by excluding the mod community. If they had released the pc version along with the consoles I might have considered buying it, but it's been too long now, I will definitely wait for the cracked version of this one.

[Rmcdermott927]

I just bought it.   It's downloading now.  Can't wait til the 14th!
