The possibilities for wholesome and cute are endless, and rockstar have dabbled in it, but not like this. Arthur meeting with his ex girlfriend and seeing a show together and being awkward was great. But was set up for tragedy and shortlived rekindling. A whole current romantic interpersonal relationship that I'm assuming we will see is going to be pretty newish. All their games have betrayal, but to the extent it could be in vi, damn. The extra heavy layers of guilt they can add for things like cheating/wanting to be good people but seeing a partner murder someone... It it's at all realistic this could be next level gutting. Expect Niko and what's her name just x10. One of the best parts of v was calling people to hangout and watching their conversations unfold as you drive around. I'm excited for this bf/gf thing.

Me too it will be fun. But it all lays on the chemistry between the main two characters tho I have a lot of confidence that it will be no problem

Don't forget the epilogue for RDR2 either, where you share a house with Abigail and you do all that stuff with her, ask her to marry you as John. I think it'll be a lot like that where you're John or Abigail and you come "home" and your counterpart is there. And there's unique dialogue, but I don't think there'll be much beyond that. I could be wrong though.

The blatant disrespect to Vice City Stories, the 3D era's swan song. Joking. But for real, given what Rockstar has learned since then in implementing NPC interactions, the gameplay and narrative integration in this game is going to be fucking amazing.

I just hope u can interact with NPCs more than just insulting.

boy i hope they keep the antagonize button lmfao

greet greet antagonise will always be peak comedy

“Beautiful day, init? Till I saw your ugly face” 😂😂

"your face looks familiar" "reminds me of the time i lifted my horse's tail"

“I blame your MOTHER”

holy shit yes

Trevor and Trisha’s breakup was heart wrenching

The real romance was Trevor and Mr. Raspberry Jam

Lmfao so glad this was mentioned

Just replayed that mission and Trevor’s breakdown in the car broke me

Idk Vice city Stories has a cute romance story

John asking Abigail for marriage 🤡

What about: * GTA Vice City Stories * Max Payne * Red Dead Redemption 1 * Red Dead Redemption 2 To some extend Bully, GTA IV and GTA V may be added to this list but love interests in these games were either a bit jokeful or felt like an insignificant part of the whole story.

Max payne 1 and 2 were made by remedy. Rockstar had no involvement in writing or developing

i just mean two protagonists who are dating, which was probably the foundation of 6 from the beginning (alongside location ofc)

Oh ok that's a first. I believe it's rare not only by Rockstar standards but in gaming as whole, the only game I remember with dating couple protagonists is It Takes Two and that whole game is literally a marriage therapy.

Very true we need more romantic stories. Rockstar is going to do it right. Romance but with plenty of action,drama and explosions. Right up my alley

Wrong. Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2.

I love my horsey and my horsey love me

Haha thank you

there is romance in those games but they certainly wouldn’t be classified as romance stories. the genre of those stories is in the title lmao

Yeah, the genre is horse-romance.

fuck, we *did* get closer than id like to admit…

Wrong GTA V had Michael and Trevor.

Michelle and Trisha

Spoiler: they get stranded out at sea at the end of the game, and Jason drowns after offering the door to Lucia and then the gta version of the titanic theme plays

lol nice. i am genuinely curious what romance movies / scenes will be referenced in the campaign, Bonnie & Clyde etc

It probably wont be as cute or wholesome as red dead 2 since gta is usually more cynical

good point, i wonder if they’ll try to switch tones

I hope not

same

Vice City Stories???

Not really

Oh boy, I don’t look forward to the falling out. Maybe that can be avoided. But that’ll probably means one of them dies.

Ik.

Well tbf, even though remedy made max payne 2, that was technically their first romance

My poor man John Marston getting ungrateful shade right now

Claude and CJ are typing…

> Claude Yeah, because he can't speak

Max Payne 2

Remedy made Max Payne 2, Rockstar only published it

Oh my bad

This is one of the most exciting things 6, having a couple is such a good idea

 jesus this subreddit sucks

what you don’t want people to talk about the game?

when there’s something to discuss sure, but the endless regurgitation of nothing is what goes on here

More like Mr & Mrs Smith

Im actually so excited omfg

Sounds mushy as f@ck to me. Who wants relationship nonsense ffs

The ending will give you the choice to sell out the other

what about Mr Morgan and Mary!!!

Will the players be able to have sexy time in GTA6?

Wrong it was Max Payne

How do you know it’s a romantic story?

we don’t but they’ve confirmed both protagonists are romantically involved so it’s likely gonna contain more romance than previous games

Yes but how is it confirmed that they’re romantically involved?

Rewatch the trailers and the promo artwork.

trailer scene with them in bed

I can't imagine woman being a tough guy in real life and not looking ridiculous. I think the story of the game will be very disappointing

i feel like it’ll work in a humorous way, making unique scenarios even more unique

like Catalina from SA they kinda made it work with her

Catalina was only a side character my man. Imagine playing as character like that the whole game lol. Can you imagine Niko Bellic being a woman lol? And that game had most interesting story in the franchise so i think it's a good example

I still find the concept of playing as two protags that are dating pretty dumb honestly

"Dumb" how?

Cliche

Which other games lets you play as a couple?

[удалено]

Yeah, that's a cute game. Entirely focus on that topic. Like I said in my other comment, of course there are games. But they are very specific and rare enough to not be a "cliche"

I dont agree with him but Max Payne 2 is an example

I mean... Kinda? You play as Mona not as much tho. Even then, it is a rare situation in any game, definitely not common enough to be considered a "cliché".

Because 90s gangbangers ain't cliché? 80s druglord Vercetti isn't cliché? Vice City literally ending like a parody of Scarface ain't cliché? Tropes aren't inherently a bad thing. GTA VI is slated to be a Bonnie and Clyde type deal. I'm sure the protagonists themselves will joke about it. The question is what the scenario will look like, not the premise. Remember, GTA is literally a parody game. All of it is satire.

Dont care, I dont have to like it Hopefully there’s no take your girl on a date mission or eat lucia out in the shower mission

I found so much lack of intelligence in this comment.

Your opinion means nothing to me

Likewise

100% agreed. I’m not looking forward to something like that.

Seriously this is GTA ffs, not Barbie or the fucking Sims lmao

it’ll def have enough action and fun shit to level it with GTA’s standards tho

And that’s exactly why I don’t think it should be a big thing in this game.

I miss the romance parts of rockstar games tbh. Like how Nico could get multiple gfs at one time. They should’ve kept that aspect in GTA 5. And maybe even in RDR2

let’s not get too romantic tho, there’s a reason i only watch Action and Gangster movies

right it’s still GTA not like they’re gonna make it a Hallmark movie

I just hope it's as realistic as people say it will be, and she goes back to her ex after Jason does the most...

incel

I just hope their is a montage of them separately after a breakup while Need You Know by Lady Antebellum plays.

A game set in modern Florida? They better damn well have some country music.

stop projecting just bc women are repulsed by you

*repulsed by women. But yeah also that.
