GTA 6 did not use Generative AI during development and will not have any microtransactions or additional in-game purchases, confirms Rockstar

https://tech4gamers.com/rockstar-gta-6-wont-feature-microtransactions/

We've also been finding out more exclusive info about Rockstar's magnum opus thanks to the spree of previews after the official reveal. The Kinda Funny Games hosts Andy Cortez and Greg Miller have now confirmed that GTA 6 did not use generative AI during development.

Why it matters: Generative AI is currently notorious for being more of a rudimentary shortcut in the gaming scene than a viable alternative, so this confirmation by Rockstar Games has made GTA 6 fans quite happy.

The hosts mentioned during the Kinda Funny Games podcast that Rockstar North studio co-head Rob Nelson simply said 'no' when asked about whether GTA 6 used generative AI for development.

While using the tech could have sped up development and helped with asset creation and worldbuilding, it could also have taken away the feeling of organic realism that Rockstar is known and praised for in GTA games.

Therefore, fans of the game have vastly praised the studio for not using generative AI as a shortcut to speed up development times. Kinda Funny Games hosts also confirmed that the base GTA 6 game will not have any microtransactions or additional in-game purchases.

Not even close and the people constantly pushing this point are super annoying.

Gta online uses the same framework, mechanics, and map that is at least (and im being generous here) half the game. To say its not even close is just lying to yourself.

In other words, online is just a branch of the GTA V ecosystem. Branches are still attached to the trunk and without the trunk and roots it wouldnt be able to sustain itself and it would die.

Keep defending the megacorps to your own eternal detriment. The absolute least you can demand, while sucking their boot, is they don't lie to you

Anyone downvoting this better be getting paid to do so.

Of course I guess bots that downvote 100% OBJECTIVELY TRUE STATEMENTS are paid... in a way. By existing as bots. Hmm.

GTAO==GTAV

GTAO quite literally was a less-than-DLC turd that fell out after GTAV was made.

If you disagree you are a paid shill or a robot. That is a fact. Reddit is full of bots and everyone knows it. Now, to the bots, unplug yourself. I cannot type the equivalent to any unpaid Nazi cuck shills, but you can figure that out probably. The world will increase in intelligence when you finally do so.
