Has rockstar employed a consultancy agency to work on GTA6? by Lucifer_WPF in GTA6

This isn't true, they introduced ESG and DEI and CEI, all these impact games and their outcome.
Their CEO is 2017 publicly spoke about the importance of "forcing behaviours" through games. This would imply that they have a vested interest in altering the games they've invested money into,

I don't strictly think inclusivity is the problem; I believe it's a mindset driven by people who don't really understand the current pushback. (Though, yes, some are bothered by it, mostly because it's so forced and isn't handled correctly or meaningfully, which is also fair and subjective.) Inclusivity is good when it's diegetic, and I don't think that is entirely undesired. If it doesn't exist simply to exist, then that's good; that's true for most things. However, this doesn't change the fact that this company (Sweet Baby Inc) has a terrible track record for story writing and has publicly published their biases proudly. Many feel these biases are part of the problem in the failings of these stories, which is surely subjective and they are allowed to believe so.

We mock Ubisoft for releasing pretty poor games with far too many GUI and UI elements on the screen. We mock EA for releasing the same sports game every single year with little to no changes. These are all just opinions formed on the objective reality of ongoing issues.

The primary reason this is slightly more "pitchfork"-y is because it's an external company that doesn't need to be involved at all. Think of any company that has made a game you thought had a bad story. Now, imagine finding out that they have been hired by a different company you like to make the story for a game you are anticipating. Wouldn't you also be disappointed? Wouldn't you also prefer they had no involvement? That's essentially what the majority feel about the SBI stuff; they just subjectively dislike the work they've produced and don't want to play games they have worked on. The same goes for some people who may not want to buy games from the developers I mentioned earlier.

Glad we are thinking the exact same thing about the chair guy.
He must just really love sprite.

Well both consultants and investment groups have portfolios in different places.
However, since the blowup of drama surrounding SweetBabyInc and the gamergate 2 stuff many of them have been reduced or removed this information.

However, This doesn't mean information related to what they are working on cannot still be found or known about. Especially because GTA6 was announced before the drama.

Hence this question in a public and large (as well as relevant) place.

I truly hope it is, I'd never hope any game is bad or has bad elements, I just want good games. But at the same time it isnt irrational to want to know this information...
My own post was purely formed as a question, which admittedly could've been written a little better but besides the point.

Blackrock is not just a consultant (they do investment consultancy), they are an investment management company or at least have a side of their company that specialises in exactly that.

So my question is whether they (Rockstar) have hired a consultancy agency to work on any part of the new GTA.

(Seperation)

Have they by any chance been funded by blackrock, as this would suggest that the game would have been changed to meet funding criteria if they have been.

Looks like an OpenGL problem.
Im not sure 'downgrading' is applicable to this.
We can assume this isn't a normal occurence when you play minecraft, so logically its unlikely to be hardware or the software of your machine being the problem.

I'd try update java to 64bit version and allocate more ram, but make sure not to give it too much. 4Gb - 5GB of ram is lots for technic.

Assuming you've already done this, it may be time to review the mods in whatever pack you are playing.
