The nanosecond GTA6 is available for purchase everyone complaining about this will be smashing that add to cart button and pretending there was never an issue
Taking long to release a new game isn't the problem imo. The real problem is how shit online was from day one and them starting to milk that online cow dry from day one with with boring grindy missions and microtransactions.
I'll see reviews and if the single player is good, and I mean really good, I'll wait for a PC release and buy it, but if that happens, I promise to never even touch any Rockstar online mode, unless a real miracle happens and they actually make it fun to play, which most definitely won't happen.
Then again wouldn't be too surprised if rockstar fucks up tue single player too this time. They probably eventually will do that to one of their games with how things have been going.
The issue portrayed is that every other game lasted only a few years and things were better and healthier. Moving on to 6 invalidates this meme altogether until they announce it’s also going to last over ten years.
Well, why wouldn't they if ppl keep buying and paying? Same with Skyrim. We can all complain about them overly relying on their one trick pony, if ppl keep paying, they'd be stupid not to give those ppl something to pay for.
Also - I'd have totally bought single player DLC from them, but I guess why make a $40 DLC that people only buy once when you can sell $1000's in shark cards to a few whales over and over again.
Honestly I'm not even that interested in GTA6 at this point, I don't do GTAO (too grindy) and it's painfully clear that Rockstar doesn't give a shit about single player anymore. Hell even in RDR2, a shitload of content that could have easily been ported to single player is locked down in online mode
Hm looks like each game takes ~2x time to complete and release the next, thus we can accurately estimate that GTA7 should be out around 2044, Just in time for my grandkids to enjoy it!
I never finished it, but I've still enjoyed what I've played of it. I've also never played online. The whole point of GTA is that you can do whatever you want without affecting any real people. Making it multiplayer was never a good idea.
There was a short period of time where GTA Online was perfection to me. Some QoL stuff hit and you didn't need to spend real money to hold your own decently while running around. Didn't last long.

multiplayer wasn't possible until gta5, so they weren't purposely making it not affect real people, that was just the nature of the technology. Gta online in its hay day was fucking amazing.
Single player is good. Online was always shit. I mean, at first online was really fun just messing with friends in the big map, but once that got old, there's nothing but grinding boring missions and microtransactions since day one.
