It certainly doesn't feel like Natural Born Killers or True Romance material, more like a TikTok Bonny and Clyde.

You can already see the game is made for streaming and short videos to advertise itself. This is no GTA 4 story which would be a lot more relevant today, dodging ICE and MAGA etc. Yeah it does feel very safe with everything that is and has been going on.

Maybe there's still some satire in the radio stations or random comedy along the way. This looks at most to be a caricature of yesterday rather than the nihilistic satire GTA became known for.

It's pretty, it's open world mayhem, it will sell well for the next decade. The game is too big to risk pissing certain groups off, it has to be safe. Mild caricature instead of satirical parody.

You got all of that from a 3 minute trailer? How?

40 years experience with movie trailers ;) But I could be wrong of course. I hope I'm wrong and the dark satirical humor remains intact. I simply did not get that impression from the trailer.
