I’m not at all surprised to see the “not interested” and “wait for a sale” options being massively ahead on Lemmy. Though it’d be interesting to see how different the “not interested” crowd would be if the option were split into “not interested at all” and “interested but wont buy for political/moral reasons”.
The comments here imply most would vote for the second option, but I’m in the first camp myself. I’ve never been interested in any of the GTA games.
Yeah, I also imagine there’s lots of folks who have their handful of games in rotation that wouldn’t care to buy a new game anyways. And then also lots of folks, who just don’t have the hardware for it…
I’m in both camps, but also I think there should be a “Arrr” option. I’m also in that camp, mostly out of curiosity. I want to see what compromises they make on this game, and how they choose to accomplish certain tasks. It’s going to be a massive game culturally, and I want to be aware of what they’re doing.
