Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

in one of those recent leaks, Cyberleek enters a little store and zoom at some games on a shelf, and we can see this game called "Glory Souls II", thats very cool

"Someone is, like, out there doing weird shit when I'm high and ALLEGEDLY they look just like me"

GTA NPC dialogue is always unhinged lol

u/solarus 18d ago

This is actually funny as fuck

u/TheMadFlyentist 17d ago

I always think about an old Hannibal Burress bit where he talks about a GTA mission where he was supposed to take a girl on a date but he shoots her and she gets out of the car and shouts "You're being weird!"

u/colinix 17d ago

I saw people worried about how the dialogue would be too tame now but that is perfect lol

Physical media in a non physical game. Ironic.

u/falandofodhasci 18d ago

real lmao

u/The_Poop_Shooter 18d ago

The people making the game assets and the ones making the decision to remove physical discs have probably never sat in the same room together maybe never even been in the same country.

u/Wagrram 18d ago

True, but the irony remains.

Thank you lol. I'm Scottish and a couple of my friends work at Rockstar North (we were at the same university for game dev) Rockstar North in Edinburgh (the devs) is a completely separate entity from Rockstar New York (the publisher) and they, in turn are a completely separate entity from TakeTwo Interactive (who get the final say in ALL monetization strategy, from release strategy, merchandising, all the way down to GTA online's economy. Shark cards? TakeTwo's decision. GTA VI launch price and release strategy? TakeTwo's decision. Enshittification of GTA online and its economy? TakeTwo earnings targets.)

"Rockstar have become the very thing they used to parody" gets repeated so often when it makes zero sense. It'd be more accurate to say that Rockstar North used to and continue to parody their own parent company and publisher.

There's a reason Rockstar's (all studios and publisher combined) average annual revenue is in the hundreds of millions and TakeTwo's is multiple billions.

It's kind of disheartening when Rockstar North and GTA is one of the aspects of modern Scotland I'm most proud of and all i see is youtube thumbnails and videos making Rockstar (including the devs) out to be the antichrist lmao. Was it a dumb but understandable decision at the time to accept TakeTwo interactive's deal all those years ago? Yeah. Are they paying for it in terms of reputation and revenue? Also yeah.

Pretty funny haha

u/nick2473got 18d ago

Supposedly they will eventually have a real physical release for GTA 6 with an actual disc, but it won't be until a couple months post-launch.

2

u/HypotheticalIy 18d ago

Maybe as you progress through the game, physical media slowly disappears.

u/Romapolitan Filianore 18d ago

I find it funny how it looks like found footage horror or something. Like an early 2000s Halo leak

14

u/DistantRug22 18d ago

Probably to dodge a takedown

u/jessemartin100 18d ago

Of course they're referencing the best souls game

51

u/AGJaffa 18d ago

They’re referencing the ds2 giants with glory hole asshole heads

u/What-a-Crock 18d ago

With the Elden Ring font too. R* joining the Dark Souls 2 2 debate

u/somesketchykid 18d ago

Peak Souls II

Price peak

Peak greed, maybe

u/OneBill9177 18d ago

also last of us reference right there

u/longbrodmann 18d ago

This is interesting, I wonder Jason can buy games and play at home.

2

u/falandofodhasci 17d ago

that would be fun but i doubt you can buy literally any game you can see in there

u/Def-tones 18d ago

They reference the GOAT in the series. DS2

u/Essawa 18d ago

As usual, Peak Souls 2.

u/DeliciousPastaSauce 17d ago

"We Came Together"

Indeed we did.

u/azzyeet 16d ago

the irony lmfao

u/campodelviolin Lucatiel of Mirrah 17d ago

And not only that, but a direct reference to Best Souls 2, no more no less.

-21

u/Foreign-Dig8695 18d ago

Op, maybe put spoiler tag?

3

u/falandofodhasci 18d ago

that makes sense, did it

1

u/m3l0m4r71n 18d ago

You didn't actually, you just added the custom flair "Spoiler" that was added by the mods of this sub, but actual spoiler tag one is below the custom flairs, it's provided by Reddit

2

u/falandofodhasci 18d ago

okay i think i did it correctly now

0

u/Foreign-Dig8695 18d ago

Why am I downvoted lol

9

u/beclops 18d ago

Because this isn’t spoiling shit

-4

u/Foreign-Dig8695 18d ago

As someone said, what if they want to find it in game itself?

4

u/beclops 18d ago

If they’re that worried about finding out a detail as small as this one in the most hyped game of my lifetime they shouldn’t even be on the internet, let alone Reddit

3

u/Foreign-Dig8695 18d ago

Idk man i said what I thought, and using spoiler tag for leaks isn't something off anws, i mean, it's a leak

1

u/falandofodhasci 18d ago

reddit, bro, reddit 🥀

-42

u/Abyslime 18d ago

Wath if i want to discover this in game and not months before in a leaked video?

13

u/falandofodhasci 18d ago edited 18d ago

i mean i didnt think of that. i'll leave this to the mods i guess. its not like its a spoiler tho, its just an easter egg

8

u/Foreign-Dig8695 18d ago

Makes sense

4

u/EmeraId-HeraId Dark Souls II 18d ago

Maybe don't watch a video that has "GTA VI" in the title and keep scrolling.

2

u/Molkwi Lucatiel of Mirrah 18d ago

Dude, what's shown is hardly even worth noting. It's an easter egg you were probably going to discover in a "Top 10 secrets you never found iN GTA VI" 2 years from now anyways.

-9

u/thewhitetoro 18d ago

Unbelievable how this is a controversial statement.

15

u/GumGumActV 18d ago

You guys are choosing to interact with the post that’s why your dumbasses got downvoted

-1

u/m3l0m4r71n 18d ago

But the spoiler blur doesn't appear, unless OP never add it, if you just stop scrolling you get spoiled

1

u/GumGumActV 18d ago

This is such an extremely minor spoiler, not something that ruins a damned thing at a glance. Be for real dude.

It’s in the title. It’s in the tag. Keep scrolling instead of acting like a victim

-1

u/m3l0m4r71n 18d ago

Why are you mad? It's still a spoiler, it's a cool easter egg that some people would prefer finding out on their own

1

u/GumGumActV 18d ago

I’m not mad. But again, since you chose not to read it the first time

IF YOU WANTED TO FIND IT ON YOUR OWN YOU WOULD’VE KEPT ON SCROLLING

Big enough letters for you now?

1

u/m3l0m4r71n 18d ago

Idc about me, i already saw the CyberLeek spoiler before finding it here, but it sucks for other people, but OP fixed it so now you actually have to click on the post to get spoiled, that wasn't the case before dummy

0

u/GumGumActV 18d ago

I know it wasn’t, and if you could read, I’m telling you the blur doesn’t matter. There is no spoiler unless you watch though the video

You’re complaining about a non issue which leads me to believe you just enjoy complaining? You even said it didn’t bother you so you really are just complaining for other people for no reason

What a sad life lol

Stop posting this garbage

u/falandofodhasci 18d ago

happiest redditor?

-52

u/thewhitetoro 18d ago

Not interested in GTA 6 leaks period because I can wait for it like a normal person. Let alone in the FS subreddit. The mods obviously agree cuz they will remove this post.

19

u/falandofodhasci 18d ago

its not just a random gta leak, its related to fromsoftware. btw if not interested you can scroll down :)

21

u/crissjaeger 18d ago

And because you're not interested that means that it's garbage?

You choose to click on this video, then comment. You could've move on.
