      The video was up early with a premiere scheduled, so people could start liking it before the video was available.

      Everyone here is missing the point that the video has more likes than views, by a few orders of magnitude…

        Exactly, thank you. I get what the massive appeal to the game is. I’ve played all the GTAs (yes I’m old), but something is fucky if it has that many updoots and not even 100k views (at the time).

      YouTube probably updates views on a periodic basis and likes in realtime.

      My guess is you’ll see views as higher than likes once activity dies down and the latter catches up to the former.
