With PC probably 2026 or 2027. No way I'm going on the hypetrain this early.

I almost forgot that delayed PC releases are a thing with Rockstar Games.

I feel like they would be insane to miss the PC streamer market for their online play that they will 100% be making all their cash from.

Cool, so they went from a 5yr release schedule to a 12yr one.

Goes to show how much money they made with lousy "remasters" and GTA Online. The only proper new game they released in between was RDR 2.

Which was 5 years ago.

There was an article on here a little while ago that said games are getting so massive that a 10 - 12 year development cycle is not only unexpected, but should become the norm soon

I'm fine with that. My backlog is so large, I'm definitely going to die before getting through it.

My backlog is so large, I’m definitely going to die before getting through it.

Don't call it that, man! games are an escape, a leisure activity. Not some work assignment you need to compulsively finish. It's OK if you don't play everything there is. 🙂

Lol I know it sounds like I'm treating it like a job, but it's more like wanting to travel the world but knowing I'm not going to have time in my life to see everything (which is both a metaphor, and also a thing I would actually like to do that competes for time lol).

We have to prioritize some experiences in life over other experiences we also want to have, and that's just how it is. So if they could just stop making new things for a while, that would really make my job easier 😝.
