I like gta series, was a huge fan since the very first one. Online is a cancer, but everything else I rather enjoyed.
However I suspect it will be very hefty, and I am absolutely sure my old computer wouldn’t be sufficient to run it even on low. And since ram isn’t made for people to buy anymore, I will never be able to afford an upgrade.
Therefore my answer is “I’ll never buy it even though I’m interested”
The game has to run on Playstation 5, and presumably on Xbox Series S. And thanks to upscaling technology, its easier to run high demanding games on lower spec systems. This doesn’t help with CPU or RAM, but I assume there will be lot of settings. There is only so much an old system can do, no idea how old it is.
The only recent aaa game that I’ve played was the new 007 one, and it took me a lot of finangling to make it run somewhat playable, but in the end I have found a set of settings where it works. But the process was long enough for me to believe that it’s probably the last aaa game I manage to play.
