I'm going to call it as a next gen game and leave this post so that one day I may be validated or humiliated regardless.

Yeah the game looks nice but as someone who primarily plays games on a PC it is super weird to have people acting like this is some completely unprecedented level of graphical achievement that would take a ridiculously overbuilt dedicated machine to run smoothly, as opposed to most midrange gaming machines built in the last couple of years. It looks pretty much like what a modern AAA game taking advantage of more modern PC hardware should look like (though most don't, being ports or cross-platform titles).

Yeah, the problem is that people are assuming that the next gen consoles are somehow magically going to be better than the best gaming PCs that can be built today. While consoles have been stagnating, PCs have just about reached the limits of what we can do with the current technology.

And it would be a launch window game, so they're usually the low end of what the consoles might end up capable of.

I liked the trailer, what I don't understand is why it had to have shooter elements involved.

Because its a GTA sandbox thing. People want to shoot things and gently caress stuff up.

You have to have combat in your open world.
