some people just have no respect for art

Why should they sell it for less when there are tons of cuck losers buying it for full price?

anyone buying GTA deserves to be milked like the goy he is

>>14005802

goddamn this guy is stupid.

>>14005745

I don't think it's ever even gone down below 30 bucks on sale.

>>14005794

But ultimately this is the reason. It's often still in the top sellers list even when it's not on sale.

Because the R* that made Vice City or San Andreas is long gone. Look, they used to release a game nearly each year, now they're just milking GTA V, re-releasing old games and only putting out RDR2 now which I suspect will be even shorter and less feature-packed than GTA V.

>>14005745

Now THIS is true art.

It's a money laundering scheme.

Tens of thousands of new players every week, a fifth of them are fake accounts.

They buy $10000 of shark cards, hack, then get banned.

Repeat every week.

>>14005876

Oh, I thought you were talking about art school

>>14005794

my nephew had it for PS3, and what was the first game he bought when he got a PS4? yes, GTA 5

I don't understand

>>14005794

I've purchased at $30 and resold at $50 a dozen or more copies. I can't say I mind the dumbasses.

>>14005745

I've never played it, and when I've got the dosh I'll pay the going rate, whatever that is.

>>14005910

That's because the online is dead on the previous generation of consoles, I don't even think they get those (((free))) DLC

>>14005745

Casuals keep buying Shark Cards

that's why.

If you don't like cars or fashion don't get GTA V, it's the most inferior game of the series.

>>14005876

how do they legitimize the money they lose? That's not laundering.

Because they can sell it at that price. GTA5 is the most successful and well received game so far, they don't have to lower the price a week after release like battelfront 2, me:a and fallout 4.

>>14005908

That too.

>>14005745

>why do jews charge money for things when people still pay it

sage

>>14005745

No anon, everyone should pay according to his capability. Normalfags playing GTA obviously have more cash than neetos

>>14007096

>someone who wants to launder money to rockstar makes fake accounts

>that same someone buys 10000 bucks worth of shark cards, giving that 10000 bucks to rockstar

>that same someone then hacks and gets banned

>>14007658

you may specifically want to tell the government of Belgium about such suspicions, as they're the ones that outlawed lootboxes in the first place, iirc

Officially, it's because of "Multiplayer Updates"

GTAV however has undeniably shit multiplayer, even after being "updated" this long

>>14005910

I did the same thing. Now that my PC's built I'm debating whether I should get it on there since that's where all my friends are.

On one hand you can call me a retard for even considering it but it's not like I haven't got my money's worth.

In the end, I probably won't purchase it thrice but it's tempting.

>Fallout 4 is $30

>Prey is $40

>Witch3r is $40h

>MSV is $20

What the fuck went wrong with (((R*)))???

>>14012790

It is selling a fuckton as it is, so no reason to drop prices.

>>14005876

I dont get it how you can launder money through that

I'd still be playing were it not for them deleting all my money to "fix" the damage done to my account by modders. I had $25M legit and it was reset to $0. Filed a dozen support tickets but got nothing back.

Beware if you play this game that you will eventually get fucked by rockstar and either be banned or wiped for no reason. The people who say this doesn't happen just haven't had it happen to them yet.

its $24 on steam right now.

>>14013283

Same thing happened to me, but I only lost $9m. I think Rockstar's reasoning was 'You spent $9m of hacked cash, so we'll just subtract $9m from your account - even if that cash you have now came from a Shark Card.'

way to go with making this thread the week it drops to an all-time low sale price at like $25 on Steam and has been $30-$35 at multiple retailers for at least a month and probably will be until after new years. excellent opportunity to discuss this pressing issue.

>Why is gta 5 still 60 bucks 5 years after it's release when R* is making a killing on sharkcards?

because idiots will still buy it

>>14013628

You should really try it, anon. Hate R* if you want, but all of the DLC for GTA:O has been totally free, they don't do loot crates, and they make games SJWs hate. Shark Cards are jewish as fuck, but the game is still fun.

>>14013631

is it worth the price though

>>14005802

lol i love red letter media

>>14024545

no

>>14005745

>when R* is making a killing on sharkcards?

you just answered your own question

>>14025538

Does GTA online require paying for PSN/xbox live?

If so that also means half of their nongame is locked behind a monthly paywall.

>>14005745

Why would you charge less when people are still paying full price?

>>14024695

>Just Cause 2

I hate that I can't just ram bikes off the road in that fucking game.

>Shark cards

I have zero idea what that meme is, GTA has been dead since IV anyway.

modern day rockstar are kikes

>>14027410

>There are always new 14 year olds

Totally false (go tell that to Japan). There are only new 14 year olds 14 years after two humans of opposite sexes who have independently reached maturity meet in vaginal sexual congress, what with them both being fertile enough for it to take and there being no contraceptives.

I wish there were just always a new generation, it would make a lot of things a lot less worrying.

Of course, I understand your point. I just thought this was a good time to remind everyone the generational game is super fucked up right now.

>>14027559

That's because Japan doesn't have immigration.

The US has brown people. And all brown women have at least 3 babies.

>>14027666

And the only whites having kids are welfare queens and their deadbeat partners.

>>14027536

Oldschool rockstar was also kike, and for a while they were worse than even EA.

Remember how before dlc EA was putting out a new game in a franchise every year and maybe a month or 2? Rockstar was a step ahead with 10 months, and the games were 2x as broken to boot.

Rockstar has never at any point in its life not been jewish.

Another thing, they don't really play video games. You can see it in the company name, the Houser brothers wanted to be rockstars, that's the origin of the name.

This wasn't much of an issue because until everyone left during gta4's development at least their development teams did play video games, but now anyone that likes vidya, even the worst normalfag of all will see things that make them think "Anyone that plays this will find it bullshit, why is it as such?". In GTA 5 it goes from major things like the 10 minute long unskipabble cutscenes to minor things like being forced to walk indoors, in gta 4 it's the game's broken state that anyone who cares in the company would try to fix or being forced to watch niko die in really drawn out slow motion.
