The old SA will never come back on Steam?

[マルコ]

I tried The Definitive Edition for around 15-20 hours of gameplay on PS4, I didn't like It.
The main reason is because I don't feel It like a Remastered, since the old one feels better.
It's been around more than a year that Rockstar removed the old GTA SA even from PS Store
There isn't any possibility to play the old GTA SA on PC?

They should've included the originals bundled in with this trilogy as a "complete pack" to give those the option to enjoy the older titles.

But rockstar is gonna rockstar

You can buy a key of the old version and activate it

I've been looking all over, can't find one anywhere.

The only officially sold edition of the game is the one offered by Rockstar directly (for the Rockstar Games
Launcher). If you want Steam keys, you simply need to look for them, but as said previously, just one game may cost you as much as the entire Defective Edition trilogy.

Again though, two more methods; obtain a physical copy, or .

Yes it will probably happen in the future.

you're delusional if you think they will return originals after they released defective editions on steam

They did actually relist the originals back on sale on R* store shortly after the release of DE, and R* even offered them for free back then but only for those who owned the PC version of DE. Fingers crossed for Steam though.

Their crappy launcher doesn't count. If they could relist them there, then why not everywhere? I don't want to create multiple accounts for different launchers and switch between them just because of that. Even launching R* games from steam and still having to download R* launcher is stupid to begin with

I wouldn't say the originals would never return to Steam, but with the way Rockstar have thoroughly messed up on their own end and caused this mess of their own making from the very start instead of actually springing for a direct remake of each, which is what they should have done from the start, they brought this garbage port, pulled the originals and realise they messed up doing it in the process.

what was the point in the end? the DE is a pile of crap, i think even Rockstar knows this and they disrupted the sales of their own games in the process and lost standing with the customer at the same time. The DE would of had to be something really special to recover from that mess, instead they've just let it happen. Where is the logic behind this disastrous action?

Rockstar needs to be reorganised and new goals are needed, because if this is what is to come for every classic or good game they have, then they may as well not bother. It doesn't help most of their effort on the GTA front is put into that toxic multiplayer nonsense on GTA V. If they can put the effort on GTA V multiplayer to bring content that works there, then they can put the effort in on this trilogy. They don't have any excuse not to try.

Chances are you should already have a R* account if you play GTA 5 or 4. But I somehow agree with you, such an inconvenience to begin with.
