It has been about two weeks since the surprising release of the second trailer for GTA 6, and fans have had enough time to thoroughly dissect the video.
What detail are we talking about? Hold on tight, but there is a devastating mistake in the second trailer for GTA 6. Are you ready? Okay. Don’t say I didn’t warn you: When Jason fires his gun, his face is illuminated before the muzzle flash even occurs.
This discovery was made by GTA detective Cat_With_Banana96, who shared it on Reddit with the words: ‘I don’t know if anyone has noticed this yet, but I wanted to mention it.’ Don’t worry, Cat_With_Banana96, it seems no one has noticed it yet, as the post received almost 9,000 upvotes.
Comments like the following are piling up:
- ‘I can’t believe I was so excited about this damn piece of trash.’
- ‘That’s it, I’m canceling my pre-order.’
- ‘Completely broken. Unplayable.’
One user even finds another mistake: Jason’s finger hardly bends when he pulls the trigger (via Reddit). You can see all the shame from Rockstar here:
The comments from fans are, as you might have guessed, not entirely serious. And if GTA 6 unexpectedly doesn’t turn out to be one of the most successful entertainment blockbusters ever upon its release, it will hardly be due to a light appearing a frame too early.
Given how often Rockstar has emphasized that GTA 6 is going to be absolutely perfect, a few jabs are probably justified. After all, fans still have to wait a few more months for the game because of this very perfectionism.
When the time comes, however, GTA 6 is expected to overshadow absolutely everything: GTA 6 will be the biggest game on Twitch, but without Gronkh: He doesn’t want to stream at release
You can watch the almost perfect trailer again here:
Although the comments in this case are meant ironically, they are in a way still a reflection of the current state of the gaming industry – because much of this has been read in one form or another regarding countless upcoming releases.
But besides the tendency of gamers to speak negatively about everything and spoil their own fun, the post highlights something else. Hardly anyone can match a GTA fan when it comes to meticulously examining footage and spinning a theory from even the smallest detail: A car dealership is forced to respond to GTA 6 fans because they kept calling and asking about the second trailer.
In fact, players have already emerged who have examined the screenshots on their part and found a completely rational explanation for the supposed blunder at Rockstar. Could there be another light source? Is someone possibly shooting at Jason before he pulls the trigger?
The answer to this and other burning questions will hopefully be revealed with the release of GTA 6. Until then, we will probably have to settle for raving about how realistic the beer flows in the trailer: New trailer for GTA 6 sparks debate about the graphics: ‘If only half of these details make it into the final game’
