Anyone celebrating gaming leaks/leakers is directly damaging the health of an already very fragile industry.- Mike Diver December 5, 2023ĭespite the leak, the official GTA 6 trailer is already record-breaking, with an eye-watering 63 million views in less than 24 hours. You may get the followers, but you won’t ever have the respect.”Ĭlout chasing weirdos ruining this huge moment that devs have worked hard towards for years absolutely fucking suck. “People that do them suck for no real benefit other than a quickly expiring and very temporary ego boost from said leakers. “They suck,” another developer said of leaks.

"There's going to be a lot of people missing time with family, friends, love ones tonight because they have to work late hours to accommodate for a leak.
