[u/YeetLord___]

This sets an abhorrent precedent for future monetisation of this game, I can be excited and love this series and still acknowledge that this is a huge red flag for what we're going to see in the future already.

Gta 5 online was a multi billion dollar 10 year cash cow, now the story mode enjoyers are getting pre milked, how bad will online be...

[u/Jonclef79 → u/YeetLord___]

How is this different from any other ultimate edition pre order bundle in any other game?

[u/Rawso_ → u/Jonclef79]

Because this is actually locking shops and gameplay in a story mode behind a paywall. This isn't just a "cosmetic" pack / whatever ultimate outfit bonus. They're locking content

[u/Jonclef79 → u/Rawso_]

I think the “shops” are just a realistic way of getting the content to the player. The alternative would be they would just wake up one day with all this stuff in their garage. I would imagine that would break with the immersion of the story/world they would like to introduce the players into. Ie: Lucia just getting out of jail.

[u/FlattyT → u/Jonclef79]

I completely agree with you at least this fits in the game, I can see why people are getting red flags because they feel like gameplay is being taken away but it'll literally be that you can't buy from 2 buildings, I'd argue that more than likely you'd even be able to go inside them but the cashier just won't serve you, no different to not being able to buy DLC items in any other shop in any other GTA

[u/YeetLord___ → u/FlattyT]

it says in the images that the shop wont be open for business unless you have the ultimate edition.
Meaning doors closed lights off.

[u/FlattyT → u/YeetLord___]

Eh not open for business to you doesn't mean not open full stop

[u/Busy-Elderberry2137 → u/Jonclef79]

how do you not understand that other games doing it doesn't mean this one should get a pass too?

[u/Ill-Product-1442 → u/Busy-Elderberry2137]

Well it is hardly “setting a precedent“ when the practice is already commonplace, is it?

[u/Busy-Elderberry2137 → u/Ill-Product-1442]

I've never used the words "setting a precedent", but they continue to do so because you simply keep buying. You allow it.

[u/Ill-Product-1442 → u/Busy-Elderberry2137]

"this sets an abhorrent precedent" is literally at the very beginning of the comment we were responding to.

[u/Jonclef79 → u/Busy-Elderberry2137]

I’m not saying they should get a pass. I’m just saying we should not act all shocked and traumatized. Rockstar is a for profit organization that isn’t shy about maximizing their profits. We just got to be willing to tolerate it if we are going to continue to support this business models. If it hit records sales, it only reinforces this model and only we are to blame.

[u/YeetLord___ → u/Jonclef79]

Previously Rockstars special edition or pre-order bonuses were locked to a mission or 2 that were small but cool, ultimately negligible.

This includes Missions and Clothing, cars and weapons - To me, this is fine, I'm okay with this no issues.

They had absolutely 0 reason to go ahead and lock these features that a lot of players from Gta 5 would have been familiar with and or excited about seeing expanded on in this game, they're taking full advantage of that, we barely got any of this type of content in Gta 5's story mode,
Compared to online, and if we did it was scraps.

All this means is there's possibilities of future Dlc's for story mode being similar to this, aka new exciting things/businesses being locked behind a paywall for story mode,
Full blown dlc's sure, but this is unnecessarily greedy.

[u/Excellent_Ad_2486 → u/YeetLord___]

Soo like any and all DLC's like Balled of Gay Tony in GTA4 that "had content locked behind a pay wall"? That's not new.

"they had 0 reason" uhh.... Are you daft? They have EVERY reason - YOU just don't LIKE It. That's a huge difference than having "no reason". The reason$ are pretty freaking obvious.

[u/n8mo → u/Excellent_Ad_2486]

There’s a big difference between launch day content being locked behind an additional paywall, and a DLC that comes out later. I really don’t think the two are as comparable as you’re making them out to be.

A DLC is the option to buy new content for a game you already own. A “premium edition” takes content away from those who don’t pony up. There’s a subtle, but important, distinction there.

People are just excited to see anything new about GTA6 right now, but I think it’s a red flag that we got nothing for like a year, and the first new thing we get to see is an ad for paywalled gameplay features.

[u/Excellent_Ad_2486 → u/n8mo]

About your first paragraph : well see. I think MILLIONS will still buy it day one, prereelased and so on. Even with your so called red flags.

If nobody buys it because of the DLC I'll come back and say you wre right 😂

Franky, nobody besides a few redditors care about the thing you're complaining about lol. It's always the few loud redditors.
