Grand Theft Auto VI — the most anticipated video game release of all time — has promised to be more “culturally sensitive” as Rockstar works to become a more “progressive” company. The Grand Theft Auto series has long been known for crass satire that targets all groups. GTA VI — which has been anticipated for close to a decade — will be the first series entry to feature a playable female character. The famous outlaw couple Bonnie and Clyde will serve as the basis for the game’s main duo, according to a recent Bloomberg article.
Fans have largely been fine with a female protagonist, but a company promise to cut down on “culturally insensitive jokes” that target “marginalized groups” has fans up in arms.

I’m sure it will still have the graphic sexual content and glorification of all things sinful to further debase the culture...but will avoid “culturally insensitive” things...let that garbage logic sink in.
Gone woke, heading for broke.
Of course they (RockStar) couldn't get away with the same stuff in today's Woke world.
I bet you will be able to buy abortions in the game.
Erik....for.....the WIN!!!!!
Exactly.
We only care about “offending” preferred groups.
But, offend me with theft, gratuitous violence, mayhem, drug-usage, and sex of all kinds - we don’t care about “offending” that way.
Even if true?
“...the most anticipated video game release of all time...”
That turned into a financial catastrophe for Rockstar.
Its only possibility for redemption is if it can be modded to be extremely gross, violent and racist. That way, Rockstar can disavow all the ‘nasty’ mods, while ignoring their use.
Throwing in some mods for select users of glitches wouldn’t hurt either.
in effect, the criminals in the game become more “culturally sensitive” lust like i real life, is that it???
culturally sensitive thugs... go figure
Futile effort - there’s no appeasing the Wokesters and it really isn’t worth trying.
Every joke can be seen as insensitive to some person or some group
So I suppose leftists will eventually try to ban all jokes.
It ain’t no “Top Gun”.
If true there won’t be a GTA VII.
They ruin everything. Blazing Saddles, Airplane!...
More proof that wonderful movies like Blazing Saddles or Taxi Driver could never me made today. Neither could most previous sitcoms.
“Gone woke, heading for broke.”
Yep. Leave it to the idiots in the gaming industry to change their games to please wokesters who will never buy said games.
EA Games came out with Battlefield 4 about a decade ago. The game features straight up gameplay with all male characters just the way you would expect to find on an actual battle field. Every subsequent follow up to this game has been more and more woke. The last iteration of Battlefield 2042 fell flat and in the first month saw most gamers returning to Battlefield 4.
These people can’t wait to kill their own audience off.
Dan Houser left, so there’s not going to be the QA of previous games.
Btw, I think Dan Houser left because the lefties were whining about crunch time or 10-14 hour workdays that are normal to produce huge games. GTA 6 was allegedly supposed to occur across a mini united states but was scaled down to a Miami and some islands because of fears that whistleblowers would complain about crunch and Kotaku and the other leftie outlets would then go wild.
It’s a shame they’re also destroying triggering content because it was criticism of America n culture right AND left, but now it will only be right and the game will lose buyers from reputation just like last of us 2 did.
