Maybe you’ve checked out the new one Grand Theft Auto VI Trailer a few times since its release in December 2023. Maybe you even stopped it once or twice to catch a detail. But I bet most of you haven’t sat down and spent a few hours researching and writing a 1500 word report on sun protection that can be seen in a split second Trailer. But if you want something like this, don’t worry, someone has done the work for you.
If you read Kotaku.comI’m assuming you already know this Rockstar Games finally gave the world the first official trailer for GTA 6
But do any of you remember the person who put sunscreen on a woman in a bikini? at the 21 second mark?
On January 3rd as discovered by PC gamer
To do this, they calculated the NPC’s skin tone using various methods, including the Von Luschan color scale and some math. But that wasn’t enough. When deciding which SPF you should use, it’s not just your skin tone that matters, but also factors like how long you’re exposed to the sun. So ficerc used maps and shadows to determine exactly what time of day we see sunscreen being applied, and took into account how many hours of sunlight are left – and used even more data and research – to determine maximum sun time , which the NPC could have Expect this day.
After all this, assuming that the NPC shown in the trailer is someone who follows all the recommended guidelines, ficerc has discovered that the SPF of the sunscreen used in the trailer is the case GTA 6 Trailer was probably between 8 and 14. Finally we can all stop thinking about it and get on with our lives.
To be clear: ficerc’s post is not only extremely detailed, but also very funny. This is probably a joke taken to the extreme. For years and years, GTA Fans were portrayed as crazy people who intensely analyze and document every screenshot or video Rockstar releases. We even saw dedicated fans Recreate the maps for GTA games before they are released. So it seems that ficerc is having some fun with the community while finding another thing to analyze GTA 6′s first (and so far only) trailer.
“As you scroll, the sad realization begins that it must have taken hours to overshadow the satire,” one user responded to the post. Which…okay, fair. That’s actually a lot of work for one joke. But I could have saved ficerc a lot of time. This is a Rockstar game. So the SPF is probably only 69. Here we go.
