The user went on to state how the company has become focused on its cash cow and is not giving something new to gamers. The netizen backed their claims by stating no new content for GTA V story mode has arrived for eager fans.

GTA V released in 2013, and while fans are still awaiting an official first look at GTA 6, Rockstar Games continues to profit from GTA online.

Furthermore, the user claims the studio did not focus on the building upon success of Red Dead Redemption II as they did not update the game to 60 FPS till now. This critique of Rockstar Games started a debate online, with many fans agreeing Rockstar Games is a profit-driven company.

What are the views of the netizens over Rockstar Games’ new approach?

While many fans believe what the user was trying to convey, they also stated at the end of the day Rockstar Games is still a corporation working for money. A fan advised others to keep their expectation low, saying, “Enjoy a good product, but idolizing a company with a good chance of changing over time will only bring disappointment.”

However, a fan claimed Rockstar Games has still some gifts for the fans up their sleeve. He said, “Rockstar has always played their cards close to the chest. You have no idea what they are working on.”

A fan spoke in favor of Rockstar Games, stating, “Honestly overall, GTAO is the reason they even have a strong enough budget to develop VI and RDR2 to be incredible quality AAA masterpieces.”

It is worth noting that GTA V’s success is so massive, its sales accounts for nearly half of the entire franchise.

Another fan supported it by saying, “They made one of the greatest and most ambitious games of all time with GTA V. Gave us RDR2 and GTA VI’s announcement and release is relatively imminent.”

Furthermore, a fan claimed Rockstar Games is now focusing on quality over quantity. He said, “If their games haven’t been consistently getting better after each installment I would be worried, but their games have only gotten bigger, better, and more detailed.”

The overall verdict of the fans speaks in favor of Rockstar Games, despite the user’s critique. What are your thoughts on the views of netizens over Rockstar Games? Let us know in the comments section below.
