Aphtermath interviewed the derek Lieu video game creator for His opinion on the Trailer of Grand Theft Auto 6 and because it is not very good.
“[The game] It looks fantastic. It looks fantastic, “said Lieu Aftermath.” A trailer is designed to do this well, which is to encourage our emotions and show a lot of things from this new thing we have never seen before. This trailer, or a pile of B-Roll with music on it, can get the same thing. But this does not make it a good trailer. Just because people are advertised, it doesn’t mean it’s a good trailer.
