First off, that fake word sucks. Second, it doesn't really apply here anyway.

it does

rockstar like any ultracapitalistic brand loves money so much they'd do anything.

30fps...because switch2...because money.

i expect their onlinestuff to be prime ea lootbox and ai upsell shit. get a yacht for 1 million.

and again a like gta5 and 4...a story so superficial it will intrigue all the 15yr old alphamales and ppl that never grew up.

why dont you just join this milc metaverse stuff? more enshittification without the extra hurdles.

It makes a lot of sense to at least ask the question if you should split this game into two parts when each part has a very different pool of customers. I don't think they'll do it, because they want people in the online component to be present for multiplayer in the first place, but it makes sense to ask the question.

If this game is going to have issues running at 60 FPS on the PS5, I don't think 30 FPS is for the benefit of the Switch 2. Even if it was, Switch 2 is a platform that people will want to play GTA on. The tech that Rockstar is trying to push forward comes at the cost of frame rate. That's not making it shittier; it's making different trade-offs.

GTA IV had a superficial story? I certainly did not feel that way about that game. Niko is the best protagonist they've ever had; a great protagonist in general.
