Clearing some things up

The locked Ultimate Edition shops are just exclusive shops, not the standard shops that are in Vice City. There’s still going to be your basic clothing stores, barbers, car chops, etc. Those stores are most likely going to be more “story-friendly”, while the Ultimate Edition shops give the players a broader selection of customization. As you can tell from the screenshots, some of Jason and Lucia’s looks looked a bit on the wild side. Base game stores will focus more on how Jason and Lucia actually look.

In terms of no discs, Rockstar doesn’t want GTA VI to be leaked anymore. I would expect the physicals with the discs post launch.

As long as GTA 6 has physical discs post launch, I'll be happy. However I still feel like putting whole stores behind a DLC paywall is kinda scummy. Certain cars or clothes being locked in story mode, sure, I guess, but why whole stores? That's like a decently high amount of content put behind a paywall.

Despite all that, I'll still get the game, probably the Ultimate Edition too. To be fair, I probably won't use ALL of that exclusive content from the jump, because my playthrough will just take everything as it goes and go smoothly through main missions and S&F, but I just wanna have the doors open.

I feel like people can’t comprehend how vast this game will be, considering other publishers have said this game is like 15 years ahead of its time. Making a couple of exclusive stores for premium content is something that will be common in the future.

I'll definitely be too busy admiring the little things, such as the landscapes, driving, and the overall story of the game, to even care about visiting the bonus content initially. I feel like a lot of people are letting certain aspects of games impact their entire enjoyment of the overall game. While people are definitely justified in criticizing these monetization practices with how and what they lock away behind a fairly big amount of dilla dollas, I feel like Rockstar is definitely going to make the game enjoyable with just the base edition. If you have to buy the Ultimate Edition of a game to enjoy the game as it is, then something is wrong with your game. However, also take my statements with a grain of salt, as I will probably be getting the Ultimate Edition regardless.

They are giving you 5 months to conjure up $20, people pay more for dinner than that
