00:00The consequences of covering this Grand Theft Auto 6 ordeal is dealing with companies, billion dollar companies, that do not
00:07respect copyright law.
00:09That is, that's evidenced by what Take-Two Interactive has done now, which is filing a takedown of one of
00:15my recent uploads.
00:16No, it's not because I'm talking about their content, they say that I actually feature it.
00:21And if you actually, you see the timestamp they brought up, they say I feature the map leak for Grand
00:26Theft Auto 6.
00:27And if you actually see the video, it is of the fan mapping project map that I put on the
00:34screen.
00:34It's months old, I don't even know what to say, it definitely feels like retaliation.
00:39And it's similar to what happened in 2019 with The Last of Us Part 2, in which Sony just went
00:44overboard.
00:44They went after anybody who was just talking about the leaks associated with The Last of Us Part 2.
00:50And Take-Two Interactive already on X, all these other social medias just going after anybody.
00:56And this is just the frustrating part, because these companies feel enabled, they feel like they can get away with
01:02it, with their power that they have.
01:04But there's a lot going on with Grand Theft Auto 6 this morning, a lot to talk about, because the
01:10leaks have only continued.
01:11And up to this point, though, I think a lot had had the assessment that CyberLeak, the individual behind all
01:17of this, had just been doing more marketing for Rockstar games, getting people excited.
01:21Like the other day, we saw the crowd density within one of the recent clubs, we also saw our first
01:26real look at the beach since the debut trailer, just hundreds of NPCs.
01:32It's honestly astonishing what Rockstar games can achieve with their technology, especially versus the rest of this video game industry.
01:40But simultaneously, we have also seen that their corporate arm, Take-Two, is going out of their way to try
01:46to find this individual.
01:48We saw that they filed subpoenas with the New York District Court, they were actually approved, they executed the subpoena
01:54in the Microsoft case to gain access to a OneDrive account, and ultimately, nothing has really come of any of
02:00this.
02:01There has been some further investigations into a supposed Discord user connected to the CyberLeak, but even then, it just
02:08feels like a bunch of dead ends, because it looks like this individual had a sophisticated operation.
02:14They were prepared for what was to come, and obviously, Rockstar games and Take-Two Interactive just not having the
02:19success that they had a couple of years ago with the first big leaker, in which they tracked that guy
02:25down almost immediately.
02:26That has not been the case this go-around, and CyberLeak has only continued. His actions are not slowing down,
02:32and he has continued to leak.
02:35And since my last video, there's been three uploads, the first of which was a gameplay clip of this individual
02:40playing as Jason going into a video game store.
02:43You cannot make this stuff up. These on-the-nose references, it just indicates that this individual is being extremely
02:50reactionary to what people are saying.
02:52And it also points to this person having current, or a very recent access of the game, because the physical
02:58edition controversy only started right at the beginning of July.
03:03So there's been theories for a while now that CyberLeak played, like, months old, and there's, like, this big operation
03:09between maybe he worked with developers or a rogue developer, but it doesn't seem like that.
03:14It seems like this individual still has access, but within the footage, he's just in the video game store, zooming
03:20in on physical media, as well as he shows off some of the new customization options with earphones and headphones,
03:27color customization.
03:28But the main focus was showing off the store, and yes, indeed, it does have another one of his trademark
03:34watermarks on the screen with text alluding to the all-digital future, which is what he has been protesting.
03:41He says,
03:50And that was our last video that was shown just the other day, and then came today, in which it's
03:56just, it's been a lot. A lot is going on right now.
03:59We've seen that Take-Two Interactive is about to really ramp things up. Tomorrow, the Netflix special is going to
04:06air, but before that, it looks like they're already preparing for some sort of collaboration with their sister studio, NBA
04:132K, because they teased an upcoming season trailer, and it looks like Grand Theft Auto 6 is going to be
04:18featured in some capacity.
04:19If you don't know, there is an in-universe NBA team, fictional, obviously, the Vice City Narcos, I think that's
04:27what they're called in the GTA universe, so I would assume that NBA 2K is probably going to be getting
04:32uniforms and such, and if you saw some of these leaks, it looks like in the background, and some of
04:37the video billboards on the screen, and some of these clubs, it looks like there's actual, maybe it is NBA
04:432K footage of the Vice City Narcos playing a game.
04:46That's the type of creativity that wouldn't surprise me to be a part of this collaboration that I guess is
04:52going to be going on between Rockstar and NBA 2K.
04:56Now, we also did see our first actual interview of Grand Theft Auto 6. Look, it's actual marketing from Rockstar
05:02Games.
05:03They talked about some stuff. They also revealed some new images. We have developer quotes. It's like back in the
05:09old days.
05:10It just shows that there's so much about this game that we don't know, even with all these leaks that
05:14have come about.
05:15Rockstar confirmed a deep relationship mechanic between Jason and Lucia, and they said player choices will have repercussions even more
05:21so than any previous honor system that's been implemented, so that's actually kind of interesting.
05:27We also see that apparently lack of sleep and multi-day benders will affect appearance, along with exercise visibly, building
05:34and toning muscle.
05:35Food affects Jason and Lucia's weight.
05:37Awesome systems from the GTA San Andreas days that people desperately wanted back, and it was kind of there in
05:43Red Dead Redemption 2.
05:44And we also did find out that this game has been worked on since 2013.
05:49So, there's a lot about Grand Theft Auto 6 that we're still learning, even in an official capacity.
05:54To pull off the technical and cultural feats required to build a world of the scale, depth, and interactivity of
05:59Grand Theft Auto 6,
06:00the Rockstar team has more than doubled in size since the release of Red Dead Redemption 2.
06:05Which might be a hint of, you know, how these leaks keep happening.
06:09It has offices around the world with one branch in LA, dedicated almost solely to the world of in-game
06:15pedestrians and PCs.
06:17That's just insane.
06:18And probably one of the biggest reveals from this interview is that we can play as Jason and Lucia at
06:23the same time.
06:24We step into these characters' shoes, an ex-military drug runner, and a fighter fresh out of prison, respectively,
06:30and can choose to either play as a couple or go off and cause chaos independently.
06:35Players can cruise along the highway as Jason or swap to Lucia in the passenger seat to scroll on the
06:40in-game phone.
06:41Rob Nelson, the studio head over at Rockstar, actually talked about the expectations with Grand Theft Auto 6.
06:47He says,
06:47There's unprecedented pressure with the long wait.
06:50However, I don't know that any amount of external pressure could compare with the pressure we put on ourselves as
06:55a team.
06:56We look back at our previous games with a critical eye and see where we want to evolve based on
07:00what we didn't do as well as we would have liked to,
07:03either because we didn't have the time, resources, or technological capabilities,
07:06or in some cases, things we just didn't do as well or consider as fully as we could have.
07:11A lot of what we do is very iterative.
07:13We adjust a lot of things by feel based on what is working and what it isn't.
07:17It's important to remember that the console hardware that Grand Theft Auto 5 was running on was made in 2005.
07:23That's what that game was built on.
07:25And even Red Dead Redemption 2.
07:27They had it built for hardware built in 2013.
07:29And this go-around, it's 2020.
07:31Those advancements do mean a lot for a company like Rockstar Games,
07:34which, obviously based on the leaks, they make the most out of the hardware at their disposal.
07:39Furthermore, in this interview, there was this quote that said,
07:42up from Rob Nelson again,
07:44it's all a lot of pressure internally and externally,
07:46but that pressure is ultimately a privilege we know we are fortunate to have.
07:50All we want to do is deliver for our audience.
07:53And again, the divide online,
07:55an opinion about how to feel about Rockstar Games this day and age.
07:59I think quotes like this, them being more open,
08:02it would mean a lot.
08:03But unfortunately, there are very closed doors,
08:06and I think that has hurt them.
08:07It has severely hurt them, this go-around,
08:09especially with the marketing campaign for Grand Theft Auto 6.
08:12And that's reflected in their official response,
08:14which came today in regards to the leak events that are ongoing.
08:18And I think the statement coming from Rockstar Games is pretty damning.
08:22I think it tells,
08:23I think it says a lot that they do not believe that they're going to be able to stop this
08:27individual.
08:28And they also,
08:29it seems to be an indication things could be getting much worse.
08:32So this was posted on their social media accounts very early in the morning.
08:35They said,
08:36Dear all, we know that many of you have been waiting to hear from us
08:39regarding the events of the past week.
08:40It would be an understatement to say that having videos of GTA 6 gameplay leak
08:44in the way it has been is heartbreaking for our team.
08:46And this is obviously not how we intended for you to see the game after all the time.
08:50We are very sorry for everything that has taken as long as it has,
08:53from getting the game finished nearly there,
08:54to sharing more details on official gameplay,
08:56and providing the community with everything you want to know.
08:59We are very excited for everyone to see the extended look tomorrow.
09:02It has taken longer than we wanted to get it ready.
09:04But as with everything we do,
09:06we know we need to exceed your expectations,
09:09and we are determined to deliver at the level you expect and deserve.
09:12While it is unfortunate that the intended game experience
09:15may now be impacted by some spoilers,
09:17we hope that everyone will wait a bit longer
09:19to experience the game for themselves on November 19th.
09:22That part right there, that last sentence,
09:24I don't, some spoilers and such.
09:26Them timing this right before the big Lucia leaks,
09:29again, it's just pretty telling to me.
09:31Like, even in the 2022 leaks,
09:33they gave an indication, like,
09:34we're going to track this individual down,
09:36we're going to stop it.
09:37This isn't, like, this doesn't sound that way.
09:39This sounds like, uh-oh,
09:41things could get much worse from here on out.
09:43We don't know, just prepare for November 19th,
09:46stay offline if you can,
09:47and that's not encouraging,
09:49I guess, for those diehard fans.
09:51This is something that will be spammed all over social media,
09:54and it kind of already is right now.
09:56And they did give a thank you to everyone in the community
09:59who reached out with messages of support.
10:01Your words have meant more to this team than you can imagine.
10:03Ultimately, we're making the game for you,
10:05and without you,
10:05we would not have the privilege of making games.
10:07We look forward to sharing more with you soon.
10:09Again, it's just the way that they've conducted business this go-around,
10:12that's what gets a lot of people like,
10:14I don't, it just, it rubs people the wrong way.
10:17That's the best way I can put it.
10:19And a lot of the decisions that they've made this go-around
10:22are very anti-consumer.
10:23I don't care what people feel about it.
10:25They did the same thing somewhat with Red Dead Redemption 2,
10:28but this being the most highly anticipated game of all time,
10:31expectations are high.
10:32And these decisions really have hurt their reputation.
10:36And that's why I think if Grand Theft Auto 6
10:38is anything less than absolutely generational,
10:41and it looks like it really, it will be,
10:43but if it is anything less,
10:45it's going to be like a Cyberpunk 2077 level of backlash.
10:49But almost simultaneously with this statement,
10:51we actually saw CyberLeak leak our first footage of Lucia.
10:56And that's the big takeaway.
10:58It's actually some more gameplay of him smashing into cars.
11:01He actually has on the screen, he says this,
11:04how does CyberLeak drive while he's smashing into cars in a modded vehicle?
11:09Buzz on the beach plus cops,
11:11let's get 50 million trading volume.
11:13I'll say this, his meme coin is not at 50 million trading.
11:18It's actually starting to lower.
11:20And I think the indication a lot of traders that actually were supporting this,
11:23they think that this is nearing the end.
11:25And that's why many are probably trying to get out.
11:28But I think people need to understand,
11:29he has made well over $250,000.
11:33It's because all of his money is made thus far on transaction fees.
11:36People have been trading this.
11:38I think there's about 70,000 holders of this.
11:41So he's made his cash.
11:42He's probably made much more than that, to be honest.
11:44And who knows what else he has of this meme coin and such.
11:48But this still could go on.
11:51If it does continue to go on, maybe it goes further up.
11:54But he's been really trying to pump this up.
11:56It doesn't appear to be going up any further.
11:58It's actually gone down quite a bit over the last week or so.
12:02Ultimately, though, that 15th gameplay leak,
12:04it was our first tease at Lucia.
12:06And we actually did hear her with a cutscene with Jason,
12:09in which he says,
12:10yeah, he wanted to drive, but he drives like a biatch.
12:13And Jason, in a worried tone, says, what?
12:16That was our first indication, our first look at Lucia since,
12:21it's been like 15 months.
12:22It really has been that long since we saw her in action.
12:25Again, like the graphics and everything,
12:27visually, it looks fantastic.
12:29But that's not where the leaker stopped.
12:31Because hours later, that poll, it decided things.
12:34Because he leaked the first five minutes of Grand Theft Auto 6 prologue.
12:39We saw the introduction of Lucia.
12:41We saw her in the jail.
12:43And that's where I'm going to end that.
12:44I'm not going to say any more.
12:45For spoilers' sake, if you want to know more about it,
12:48I'm sure you can find it.
12:49It's going to be plastered all over social media and such.
12:52But yes, I saw Lucia walking around.
12:54I saw some moments that were featured within the first trailer.
12:57And this is where things are really going to escalate.
13:01This is Armageddon for Rockstar Games.
13:03And based on the response, it doesn't seem like they can do anything
13:06or if they will do anything.
13:08And I think, I've said it before,
13:10but I just think that says a lot about this fiasco.
13:13And I'm certain that the reason why they may have held back their response
13:17was because they wanted to further, you know,
13:19find out what actually happened here.
13:22But also, maybe see if they could track this individual down and stop them.
13:25And it doesn't seem like that's going to happen.
13:27Like, we've seen that they're going after every lead,
13:29but it's leading to a dead end
13:31because they're dealing with somebody
13:32who knows what they're doing this go-around,
13:34which is bad news for them.
13:35And it does show that they really do have to rethink
13:38how they go about these things
13:39because this is something that will only continue past Grand Theft Auto 6.
13:44It will haunt future projects
13:46if they continue this mentality
13:49that I genuinely think has hurt this project.
13:52Now, within this prologue leak,
13:53we actually saw he put, again, his infamous text
13:56and he kind of, again, responded to some of the criticism
13:59that's been going around.
14:00A very reactionary individual.
14:02But CyberLeak said in his watermark text,
14:05this build is actually recent
14:07and the game is not ready at all.
14:09Sony and Rockstar are killing your right to own
14:11and resell your games
14:12and Rockstar is killing their own employees too.
14:14The work required to reach gold
14:16is way too much for so little time left.
14:18Trading volume price is how CL measures your support.
14:22CL will not continue without support.
14:24You decide.
14:25And this very much could be the end of the situation.
14:28It could still be the beginning.
14:30But this individual clearly...
14:32He's trying to pump up his little meme coin
14:35while advocating on behalf of physical media.
14:38Now, Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive,
14:40it has become quite clear
14:41that they're preparing to go all out tomorrow.
14:43After the Netflix special,
14:45it seems like a bunch of other stuff
14:46is going to be coming upon.
14:47It's not going to be just that gameplay
14:49that they're going to be revealing.
14:51It's also going to be a bunch of previews.
14:52This was something that we talked about before.
14:54There was reports saying
14:55that a GTA 6 preview event was hands-off
14:57and embargo lifting in time
14:59for the Netflix premiere.
15:00This is something that supposedly happened in July
15:03and it was confirmed by a number of YouTubers,
15:06one of which being TGG,
15:08probably one of the biggest GTA YouTubers.
15:09He took to his social media saying,
15:11last month I was invited to Rockstar North in Edinburgh.
15:14While there, I learned exclusive information
15:16about GTA 6 as soon as the extended look is out.
15:19I'm telling you everything tomorrow.
15:20Thank you to everyone at Rockstar
15:22who made this happen
15:23and we did see Rockstar Games actually respond
15:26and they responded to a couple other influencers
15:28as well about this.
15:29But that is where this situation stands.
15:32This is as bad as it gets for Rockstar Games.
15:35Their statement, I think,
15:36says a lot about there just not being much
15:38they can do here
15:39and they're just going to hope
15:40that people can avoid spoilers.
15:42It's a similar position
15:43that Naughty Dog found themselves in.
15:44But at the same time,
15:45while they're saying that,
15:46they have their legal side
15:48which is going absolute batshit insane
15:50with DMCA claims,
15:52taking down content
15:53that they should not be taking down.
15:55It's this billion dollar company mentality
15:58that I absolutely fucking hate
15:59and it drives me nuts
16:01because these companies
16:02do not respect people's laws.
16:03But if it was vice versa and such,
16:06these companies would be sending their lawyers
16:08to your porch.
16:09PIs would be at your front door.
16:11I mean, we know that's already happening
16:13with Grand Theft Auto 6
16:14based on some of the recent events and such.
16:16But yeah, this situation,
16:17we'll see if it is continuing or not.
16:20It seems like CyberLeak
16:21is still trying to pump up his meme coin
16:23which is starting to falter.
16:24And I wonder if his motivation
16:26will be to just escape
16:27and run off to the sun
16:29with at least a quarter of a million dollars
16:31that he's made from this.
16:32Or maybe he leaks a build.
16:34I mean, that's what some people think.
16:35There's been all kinds of theories online
16:37saying that he's just going to
16:38release a build of Grand Theft Auto 6.
16:40although he has given no indication
16:42that he's at all going to do that
16:43or if he even has the ability to do that.
16:46It remains to be seen
16:47what's going to happen next with CyberLeak.
16:49But I think a lot of people
16:50have been theorizing for a while now
16:51that this was his endgame.
16:53This was his last big thing.
16:55And we'll see if more footage comes
16:57of the prologue with Lucia
16:58because he did not release the entire thing
17:00but he released a good section of it.
17:02Anyway, a lot going on
17:03with Rockstar Games and Grand Theft Auto 6
17:05and I want to know all your thoughts
17:06down in the comment section below.
