    Maybe I’m just old, but I feel like all the people complaining about no PC port at launch, or how this trailer doesn’t show gameplay must be ‘new’ to the series (which to be fair, could mean as much as a decade).

    This is how Rockstar have pretty much always done it, going all the way back to GTA3 on the PlayStation 2; PC ports have always been 6+ months after.

    Trailer 1 tends to be about the setting, Trailer 2 about the primary characters, then Trailer 3/4 about the supporting characters. ‘Gameplay Trailers’ usually don’t come out around/after launch as that’s usually what’s being still being worked on by the devs.

      Rockstar was a PC gaming company before they went into consoles. GTA 1 and 2 were made for PC before being ported to console.

        I know, which is why I specifically called out from GTA3 onwards. 😜

        They’ve been console first for a lot longer than not; pretty much ever since they changed their name from DMA Design to Rockstar North.
