>In the summer of 2020, after a police officer killed George Floyd, Rockstar Games quietly shelved a mode of play it had planned to release for its Grand Theft Auto Online game.
>This was one of several politically sensitive actions Rockstar, a division of Take-Two Interactive Software Inc., has taken in recent years. The company removed transphobic jokes from the most recent console release of Grand Theft Auto V and significantly narrowed its gender pay gap. Rockstar's next game, Grand Theft Auto VI, will include a playable female protagonist for the first time, according to people familiar with the game. The woman, who is Latina, will be one of a pair of leading characters in a story influenced by the bank robbers Bonnie and Clyde, the people said. Developers are also being cautious not to "punch down" by making jokes about marginalized groups, the people said, in contrast to previous games.
>Moves like these once seemed unthinkable for a company whose best-selling franchise is a satirical depiction of America that involves playing gangsters who kill civilians and where women are mostly depicted as sex objects. Rockstar employees described a workplace culture full of drinking, brawling and excursions to strip clubs.
>The transformation of Rockstar includes changes to scheduling, converting contractors to full-time employees and the ouster of several managers that employees saw as abusive or difficult to work with. When the pandemic started, workers received care packages, cloth masks and surprise bonuses. During the protests over the death of George Floyd, a Black man who was murdered by police officers, the company said it would match donations to Black Lives Matter charities. Employees have been given new mental health and leave benefits. A new policy called "flexitime" allows staff to immediately take time off for every extra hour they work.
Rockstar purged itself of white male employees after Floyd's death
> Beware of Anti-White PsyOp (psychological operations) agents/posters shilling a false narrative (usually posting something that denigrates or intends to cause harm to Whites).
> These people will post threads and may also pretend to interact within a thread, again in a manner to cause harm to Whites.
> Popular topics include: BBC, White Replacement, White Genocide, BNWO, Interbreeding, Cuckolding, Insults, Demoralization, Trying to cause division among Whites, Trying to confuse Whites.
> Other topics include: Shilling for progressive/liberal agenda, Attempting to keep White men away from black women, Trying to make it seem normal for White women to date outside their race.
> They want White Men to remain passive or they want White Men to leave the country.
> “Racism” and “racists” are new concepts, “racism” being introduced in 1902 and not becoming popular until 1930s, designed to weaken the Whites and empower blacks. It’s as if someone wanted you to stop breathing so they called you a “breathist” and tried to make you feel guilty about breathing. Same thing with “racist.” They don’t want you to use your natural ability of discrimination because blacks cannot compete, and this allows them to victimize you without fear of retaliation.

>George Floyd, a Black man who was murdered by police officers
this didn't happen, the autopsy showed he died of a drug overdose
boys clubs always made the best games. HR types and money counters ruin games and make them just another product to consume
your entire existence is this childrens cartoon forum, isnt it? SERIOUS BUSINESS
I dont even care at this moment for Rockstar and GTA VI or 7 or 8.
Thank You Rockstar for childhood memories with original GTA 3D trilogy - III, Vice City, San Andreas but company is going down the drain for being PC - the thing they made fun of, in their games.
newfag leaf can't recognize the bottiest of bots
you must be so brown niggers call you nigga
WHY ARE YOU HERE.
GO AWAY.
Grand theft auto has been trash for over a decade now
GTA v online was a steaming pile of shit
Anyone still paying GTA should be ashamed of themselves
GTA4 was what got me hooked onto Grand Theft Auto.
GTAV sucked because of Franklin.
I'm not gonna bother with GTAVI because who cares about LATINX protagonists.
It's not about Latinas, I just don't give a shit about the deliberate browning of video games
ROCKSTAR meet trashcan.
>A boys club transformed into a real company
So in other words they got Blackrocked. They hired a single faggot/leftist woman and it all went down hill from there. Remember anons, any institution that is not explicitly right wing WILL INEVITABLY BE INVADED BY LEFT-WINGERS. No exceptions.

besides, chauvin merely applied the protocol from the minneapolis police manual so if he did kill floyd it's the manual's fault not chauvin's
